Two more outstanding products from the BECCA Halcyon Collection are Flowerchild and Damselfly Mineral Blushes ($32). These are smooth, soft, pigmented and glowy. These blushes never look chalky or heavy, but bring a beautiful radiance to the face. They are very finely milled and comparable to high-end luxury brands. The texture of the powder makes application easy–one swipe is all you need and the blush melts into your skin leaving behind a natural, glowy flush. I really think these blushes speak for the line beautuifully–fresh, natural and effortlessly feminine.

Lastly, I was able to jump on the BECCA Beach Tint train with Guava Beach Tint ($25). An Allure Editor’s Choice, Beach Tints have almost a cult following and now that I have had a taste of the Beach Tint Kool-Aid I know why. These gel blushes are lightweight, oil-free, non-greasy (yipee) and not drying. They can be used as a cheek or lip tint. I did try Guava both ways and though I prefer it as a cheek tint, I did really like the color on my pale lips too with a little gloss on top. In fact, the Mai Tai gloss from the Halcyon Palette on top of Guava makes for a delicious juicy color. Guava is a stunning shade which is ideal for summer–a breezy coral pink. I’m in love! Guava looks incredibly fresh and natural on cheeks and is remarkably long lasting. Beach tints work well on all skin types and ages. I tried Guava on top Flowerchild and instantly fell in love with the combination.
BECCA Mineral Blushes in Flowerchild and Damselfly and Beach Tint in Guava are hands-down my favorite blushes for summer 2011 and must-haves to recapture that summer glow of youth!

Two shades perfect for you. I may have to try Flowerchild…I don’t ordinarily do anything orange, but seeing that I just stocked up on orange lipstick and glosses, it may be time to branch out a bit, lol. Guava has me intrigued as well.
You, on the other hand, are guaranteed to look lovely in either of these shades, lucky duck! Can’t wait to see you in them!

Shannon. Flowerchild has a lot of pink in it–it will look great on you!
You’ve got me hooked! I want “Flowerchild” (even the NAME alone is appealing!) And the color is gorgeous. Love it!
Those are such gorgeous, summery colors.
I really like Flowerchild; thanks for the review and great pics.
I have heard wonderful things about their tints, I am glad the powder blushes are just as great!
Wow. I love Becca Blushes. i almost forgot how beautiful they are. I might need to pick up the pink/peach one. It’s stunning!
Ooh I like Flowerchild! I didn’t know these were available.
Flowerchild is calling me! They are both beautiful.
I’ve been hearing alot about BECCA lately…those blushes are gorgeous! I’m intrigued now…
