Smasbox Will Carry Becca Under Eye Brightening Corrector and Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed Highlighter

I receive a small commission if you shop through my link.

Starting in October you’ll be able to buy two beloved favorites from Becca on Smashbox’s website. Both Becca Under Eye Brightening Corrector and Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed Highlighter will be available on the Smashbox website moving forward. Becca released the news earlier today on their Instagram account however, the rumor about this has been circulating since early Summer.

There’s no word if further products will be created by Becca for Smashbox going forward or if new shades of the Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed Highlighter will be released but I’m just thankful it’ll still be around. Apparently, this also means that Champagne Pop, a beloved favorite shade, will also be readily available going forward.

This is very interesting news because I feel like Smashbox isn’t doing so well themselves but I guess they are doing far better than Becca since Estee Lauder kept them on. It’s odd thinking about Becca being carried at Smashbox and a lot of questions are circulating at the moment addressing potential formula changes and perhaps new packaging. Will Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed Highlighter come in boxes labeled Smashbox or will the formula retain the Becca brand name. I highly doubt the name will remain the same but we’ll have to wait and see how the launch goes.

I’m not a highlighter fangirl as you know but Becca’s have always been an exception to the rule and I’m happy I’ll be able to get them going forward. I do worry that the formula will change though! Estee Lauder has a real knack for ruining formula as well know.

I do have some doubt they’ll be further products carried from the original Becca Collection but at the least, I hope we’ll see new seasonal shades of the highlighter.

Are you excited about this news?

Clinique Cheek Pop Pearl Blush Promises Luminosity for Fall

I receive a small commission if you shop through my link.

Clinique Cheek Pop Pearl is a new line of blushes in the Cheek Pop Collection available in six shade selections with a new radiant finish. I’m a long-time fan and lover of the original Cheek Pop Blushes just as many of you are and I think I can speak for all of us that we’ve long since wanted a more luminous finish in these gorgeous blushes. I’m not sure if I was expecting this as a Fall 2021 launch as they do feel very Spring 2022-like in my eyes but hey, I never say no to radiant blushes so bring them on.

Apparently, the finish is that of a lit-from-within glow with pearlescent pigments that reflect light for a soft, shimmery effect.

Shades include:

  • Coral Pop
  • Garnet Pop
  • Ruby Pop
  • Topaz Pop
  • Rose Quartz Pop

The new formula contains a moisturizing base of squalene and glycerin that promises a seamless, second-skin finish that wears for ten hours. The swatches Clinique has on the website are a little flat looking which makes me really want to see these in person before indulging but needless to say I think they’ll likely be a big yay desperate the bad promotional images.

I do wonder if Cheek Pop Pearl will replace the original formula since Clinique no longer carries them on their website and they were on sale all through Summer. That being said most major retailers like Sephora and Ulta do carry them. It’s one of those things that make you go hmmmmmm….!?

Clinique Cheek Pop Pearl Blush is available now.
