Becca, the Australian cosmetics company, is currently offering free shipping from its website to both sides of the pond. Yippee’s all round! The brand was originally developed by Aussie Rebecca Williams with a view to developing the ‘perfect’ foundation for real women. Her real beauty mantra even extends to her promotion pictures, which remain refreshingly un-airbrushed.
Becca is one of a few make-up gurus who believes in a three step system involving foundation, concealer, and crucially, powder (Bobbi Brown is another). She claims spending 15 minutes following this system is the route to a flawless base. To help you in this quest, her products come in an impressive array of shades, the only problem being that it’s a bit difficult to select the right one from the website. To try them in the flesh, you'll have to visit Becca's London Store.
To get a taste for her products, try out the much-raved-about Shimmering Skin Perfector (£28), designed to lift tired skin and give you a radiant glow (To check it out, watch Kylie in her 'Slow' video - her whole body was smothered in it). It’s also infused with SPF 20, as are most of her products. Which being a bit of a sunscreen obsessive, is something I whole-heartedly applaud (wear it every day, and don’t forget your neck!).
Now I’m off to take advantage of that free shipping!
