What They Say: "Becca Shimmer Powders have ultrafine particles of shimmer (mica) to deflect light and illuminate the skin, helping to create the look of naturally radiant skin. The fine shimmer is not overly glittery making it perfect for day or night with a luminous finish that's subtle rather than shiny or greasy."

Jen's Experience: Maybe I just don't understand this product. It says that it's powder, and the applicator definitely looks like it belongs with a pressed powder, yet when I try to wear it (much like I would a powder bronzer), it looks like I have sunburn. The color I'm using is Princess, which is labeled for Fair to Dark Tan skin, so you would think it would be possible to have a nice, subtle glowy effect, but if there's a way to do that over a large portion of my face, I never figured out how to do it. That said, if I use a small enough amount, it makes an awesome, really natural-looking blush. I still don't see much in the way of shimmer, but the color works very well with my fair skin in that context. So, what I didn't get in this shimmer powder, I gained in a totally wearable blush.
