First Impression: BECCA Cosmetics x Jaclyn Hill Champagne Pop

I was fortunate to get my hands on the BECCA Cosmetics x Jaclyn Hill brainchild that is ‘Champagne Pop’ Shimmering Skin Perfecter Pressed and I’ve got so many feels for this product! Want to know what I thought? Read on!

This collaboration is one of the biggest of the year and I’m so excited to share my initial thoughts with you all! This item released online today at Sephora.com. It will come to all Sephora stores July 17th. I was able to snag it at a Sephora store that had them out early a few days ago.

In my first time playing with the product, there is no denying that ‘Champagne Pop’ is absolutely exquisite. If you are familiar with BECCA Cosmetics and their Shimmering Skin Perfecter formula, you know all about the silky smooth feeling you get when you touch the product. It has extremely fine shimmers scattered throughout the product so you won’t look like Edward Cullen if you don’t want to.

The product is buildable to an intense shine, but a single layer will probably suffice for everyday wear. It is a pale gold color that has more of a peach undertone that other products I have making this product really unique in my collection. Upon initial photgraphs (and indoor lighting), I thought this looked similar to ‘Wisp’ by ColourPop Cosmetics. However, upon further inspection (aka walking outside in sunlight), I could see that ‘Wisp’ is more of a true champagne color and ‘Champagne Pop’ is definitely warmer.

I was hesitant to purchase this because I thought it might be too light for me. But the tone is flattering on my skin and doesn’t wash out my cheeks of look like a bunch of ashy shimmer. Like I said before, it is unique in my collection and it is probably the lightest I will go for a highlight. I lean towards deep golden and bronze highlights, especially in the summer, because I am typically outside and get super tan for a majority of the season. I can see myself using this more in the winter as it will flatter my natural skintone as well and add a healthy amount of glow where a bronze highlight might look too forced for the season.

Overall, I’m happy with this color and am happy with my purchase! However, if Jaclyn Hill’s name had not been attached, I probably wouldn’t have given this color the time of day. It just goes to show how much attention I pay when an influential name is attached!

‘Champagne Pop’ sold out in record time today on Sephora.com reportedly selling as many as 1,000 units per minute and it was gone within a matter of hours. The Sephora site indicates that this item will be back in stock online at some point soon since the term ‘Coming Soon’ can be found on the page. It would probably say ‘Sold Out’ or the listing would be removed if they didn’t have more on the way.

If you weren’t able to get this today, definitely check back everyday! I say everyday because the next batch might sell quicker than this one, so be ready and good luck!
