Becca Prismatic Amethyst Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed Highlighter

it's completely mindboggling to me... but, it's snowing here! the first snowstorm of the winter is happening... now. at the very end, when i was in a tank top bathing horses last week! hopefully, this will be the last hoorah and warm weather will be back after this week. at least the dogs are happy and loving the snow :D

i'm excited to share Becca Prismatic Amethyst Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed Highlighter with you all! i ordered this bad boy as soon as it was available to me :D i adore powder highlighters, and this gorgeous limited edition one from Becca just had to be mine.

the packaging is absolutely delicious. a holographic purple box which contains the compact... which instead of traditional black Becca packaging, is shiny purple!

the product within the compact is a light shimmery purple/pink color with a textured pyramid designed imprinted... just so yummy!

despite being called Prismatic Amethyst, this highlighter leans more pink than purple. it is sheer yet buildable enough that you can go from a slight glow to a blinding, in your face, gleam. some people have described it as chalky... i don't find it to be that way, but it does kick up a lot of powder. however, all of my Becca highlighters kick up the same way... so i wasn't surprised, and while i would prefer they didn't, it doesn't bother me that much.

here's a look at it on my skin... it is SO difficult to photograph!

and here's one of the looks i used it for :) it's just so gorgeous! i love that's it's just a little different... not so out there that you feel you can't wear it on the daily, but enough that gives you special little edge. i personally always want my highlighter to walk into the room before i do, so i love all the shine on this baby!

Becca Prismatic Amethyst Shimmering Skin Perfector retails for $38. you can get it at Sephora, Sephora.com, and BeccaCosmetics.com. i buy all my Becca from Sephora.com because of their $10 Flash Shipping, free samples, and eBates! however, there is an offer that comes up on Becca's website currently for you to save 20% off your first order if you sign up for their email... that's $7.60 off Prismatic Amethyst :D

what do you think of this purple highlighter? is it something you must have... or already grabbed? let me know!

Happy Tuesday! Ria :)
