the next Becca Cosmetics TSV is on the 01/02/18
I could be tempted by this as I really like the foundation (be warned anyone buying it, you'll need a good shade if not two lighter!) and I do love a lip topper...
I bought the TSV with the Ultimate Coverage Complexion Creme Foundation last year and I really like that - I know a lot of people find it too thick but it works for me as I don't apply a lot but need to cover the pink scalds I've mentioned. If they've got the same shade in this Perfecting Foundation, I'd probably be ok but am wondering about the coverage and finish?? Does it sound like it wouldn't be for me?
AndiK, I'd definitely go down a shade as it comes up quite a bit darker (plus it also oxidises a bit on me) but the finish is lovely as it's very glow-y - it's my favourite summer foundation for that reason as for a lighter, dewy coverage, it really is lovely. However, I'd like a lighter shade for the winter months but I'd say it's sheer to medium (at the very max) coverage - hope that helps?
Reading QVC US forum they got the TSV we had before. The comments many saying its glow this and glow that, too much layering of glow which not everyone wants or needs. Thinking about Becca when they first came to the UK, I bought from SpaceNK then. They had a few shimmer products and now yes its all glow this and glow/shimmer that. I do use their undereye brightener under my concealer but no interest in the shimmers.
So for my first purchase from Q in a month, I've bought this in Light and on AD and very pleased with myself as I really like that foundation and the lip topper looks gorgeous! Not tried the under eye brightener but it gets great reviews so looking forward to trying it...
For anyone needing a frame of reference, I'm Medium Beige in Bareminerals original/ Golden Nude in the BarePro liquid foundation and originally bought Beige in this foundation which is a good shade too dark for my skin.
