So I'm just getting into the world of makeup. I have a naked palette and do my eyebrows, am pretty good at liquid liner and looove lipstick. I don't like foundation because I don't feel I need it right now. What should I tackle next/is there a product you guys recommend?

Strobing. Basically highlighting without contouring. Easy and beautiful.

Yesss^ Highlighting is so easy & gives such a pretty effect no matter how full on or natural the rest of your makeup looks (: My current favorite is ABH So Hollywood.

Samantha, I think Becca OPAL would look amazing on your skintone but not over the top. It will stay in balance with the rest of your natural makeup.

I can't seem to find the opal you're talking about Marleen :/

Here's a pic. The swatch of Moonstone looks lighter in the pic than it really is. It's not that white. But the Opal swatch is true to the swatch shade.

Oh man I do love that opal. Price? I looked for it on here but am not having the best luck.

Have you tried ebay? It comes in liquid, powder and cream form.

The powder version is the size of a regular compact and has the word PERFECTOR on it. The cream version is half the size with the word POURED on it. The packaging is sturdy but the powder version is fragile and the powder will cracking & shatter if you drop it. Obviously the cream version will be OK if dropped. They are expensive. Sephora, I believe Ultra carries it and I'm sure you can find it on the Becca site. Often when I'm not sure I'll like a product, I'll buy a travel or sample size off ebay to try it out first.

I'd recommend either a cream blush (I love No7) or a contour kit.
