When I asked for makeup recommendations, the girls on the Alley overwhelmingly suggested Becca, a brand with which I am wholly unfamiliar. Do you use Becca? Share your thoughts (and fave products) in my Comments
Find Becca (along with Bobbi and Laura) at Sephora
I like the stick foundation and i've heard raves about the cream blushes and concealers.

I have only tried the cream blush. I wouldn't purchase again because it doesn't blend well.

Becca makes a great bronzing dust, (Though I didn't like the cream/gel, I found that it made my complexion appear ruddy.) But my faves are benefit benetint cheek stain, very natural once you get the hang of the application, and elizabeth arden's personally matched foundation, for lips, pretty much all of vincent longo's line. (But honestly for clear gloss, you could use wet and wild and no one would tell the difference!) Oh, and aquaphor for moisturizer.

i bought a bunch of stuff from becca when I lived in london. loved their highlighting foundation - kind of sheer and gives your skin a glow. I forget the name of the color (opal maybe?)
Also liked the cream blush and lip gloss.
havent used it in a while but liked it when I did...

I discovered becca foundation in the pump last summer and fell instantly in love! Its wonderful, I have been having a long term love affair with tinted moisturizer but wanted a bit more once in a while and I found it, I highly recommend you try it!

You must try the shimmer powders- the name may sound frosty/frightening, but they literally melt into your skin and make you glow. I'm fair-skinned (MAC NW20) and adore Nymph and Princess for that "Oh, this is my natural glow" look.

Great site! I'm new to Becca as well. We don't have any counters in my neck of the woods, but I'm dying to try their stuff.
Take care, Erika

i heard amazing things about the becca concealers and bought one because i have mega dark circles under my eyes and lets just say i was not amazed...if you need a concealer for dark circles i wouldn't recommend becca because its a very dry consistency without a lot of give...too dry and not silky enough to smooth under eyes..although i do like it on zits and red spots around nose. hope this helps! and if you're main prob is dark circles i would highly recommend laura mercier secret concealer. :)

becca's a sturdy little line. the concealer duos are quite good- great color selection, thick formulation with good coverage. the loose powder is excellent as well. also really dig the beach tint. just wish they'd get into powder foundations.
and hello there, india.

Becca concealer is really smooth but I do find that it is rather dull and doesn't illuminate. I can't really find a shade which I like and its also very expensice
