BareMinerals’ Beaming Beauty kit

I knew I wanted this as soon as I saw it! The colors are warmer, but they didn’t look too orangey - which is a color that doesn’t look great on me. Turns out that Honey Blossom is more of a mauve-red, and Velvet Peach is a great pinked apricot, so…definitely good colors on me. I also got another tube of Lash Domination mascara, which works fairly well on me but not enough for me to pay $18 a tube. I also got the chance to try BE’s new brush line, in their new-style blending brush.

BareMinerals’ Beaming Beauty kit

The colors are slightly reminiscent of previous BE colors, so if you're a collector of old and you have these other shades, you're set. Honey Blossom is similar to Silk Rose; In Boom is a bit like Joy; and Velvet Peach is cross between Morning and Dusk blushes. I like BE blushes, but there are very few that I'm utterly over the moon about. This...this may be one of those blushes! It's got a little bit more pigmentation than some of their lightest blushes, and there's a slight flush to the shade. It's also a satin finish - no shimmer at all, unless you add it yourself.

This kit contained:

  • Honey Blossom — mauved-rose satin
  • In Bloom — apricot-gold shimmer
  • Velvet Peach blush — sheer pinked-coral satin
  • Marvelous Moxie Buttercream Lip Gloss in Forbidden Nude
  • Lash Domination Volumizing Mascara in Intense Black
  • Eyeshadow Blending Brush
