PRODUCT REVIEW: BECCA TURKISH DELIGHT HOLIDAY SET FROM RY

Today I’d like to share with you an amazing makeup set, the Becca Turkish Delight Holiday Set which is available from Australia’s largest online hair and beauty store, RY. Here are my thoughts; 





What They Say:

Becca Turkish Delight Holiday Set gives inimitable colour for a signature look.

Includes;

  • Beach tint in Watermelon, 7ml
  • Ultimate Colour Gloss in Palm Breeze, 7ml
  • Ultimate Eye Colour Quad in Eclipsed, 8g
  • Nail Polish in Tempranillo, 15ml
  • Brown cosmetic bag with dual compartments
RRP: $74 (but valued at $174) – Available from RY

What I Say:

I have never tried anything from the Australian makeup brand Becca before, so I was very excited to put this makeup set to the test.

The makeup came beautifully presented inside a high-quality brown makeup bag with dual compartments, as well as small pockets, elastic straps etc to hold your makeup insecurely. I absolutely love this bag, and love how you can organise your makeup inside the bag, so I immediately started using it. The dark brown colour, which matches the signature colour of Becca is also very modern and stylish, and wont date in a hurry.







This is what was included in the makeup kit:


Beach Tint in Watermelon







This tiny tube of Beach Tint contains a multi-functional cream stain that can be used for both cheek and lips. The oil free and water-resistant crème blends quickly and easily into the skin or lips, leaving a lovely natural looking stain behind.

The Beach Tint has a lovely scent that supposedly is watermelon, but I have to admit that I cannot quite smell that, but in saying that it does have a gorgeous sweet fruity scent that you can only love!

The Watermelon colour is a bright pink shade, but when wiped into the cheeks or lips, it has a lovely and more subtle pink shade that looks very natural, and lasts for hours. In saying that, the creamy liquid is very concentrated so you need to take care not to use too much, or you will end up with quite pink cheeks. As it is a liquid it means that it leaves a nice sheen on the cheeks, which I really like as it is different from the powdery blushes that I usually tend to use. The tint had separated a little when I first opened it, so all I got was a thin liquid, but once I had ‘drained’ that from the tube, I had no issues.

When used on the lips, it does have a bit of a matte finish, so I prefer to use it with a clear lipbalm or gloss on top. 




Ultimate Colour Gloss in Palm Breeze


 



This gloss really pleasantly surprised me, as unlike most other lipglosses it is seriously pigmented, almost to the point you’d call it a lipstick but with the added high shine gloss. It feels light and so comfortable on the lips with its non-sticky formula, and it lasts on the lips for quite a few hours, although naturally not quite as long if you eat or drink. The lipgloss has been enriched with vitamin E to hydrate and nourish the lips, so even when it has worn off, it leaves your lips feel soft and smooth. The colour Palm Breeze is a warm pink fuchsia shade that I really like, and which is perfect for both daytime and night-time wear .



Nail Colour in Tempranillo






This nail polish in the shade Tempranillo is a lovely dark plum shade that is absolutely perfect for autumn and winter. The flat brush makes it easy to apply to a streak-free high finish, and after two coats you’ve got the full saturated colour. It dries quickly and lasts for about 4-5 days without chipping. I also love how glossy it is, even without the use of a top coat. I also love that the formula is 4-free, and hence free from key chemicals including from Formaldehyde, Toluene, Camphor and Dibutyl Phthalate



Ultimate Eye Colour Quad - Eclipsed






This eye shadow quad is without a doubt the hero of this makeup kit. The round quad comes in a soft touch brown plastic compact with a silver insert at the top, making it resemble a wheel. Inside you find a full sized mirror as well as the four eye shadows which includes a metallic champagne, a demi-matte mid-grey, a metallic khaki-green shade as well as a matte moss-brown shade. Each of the colours work beautifully on their own, or complement each other perfectly too when used together in any combination. In short, this palette contains every colour you could need, be it for a simple every day look, or a more intense smoky look using the deeper shades to line the eyes with.






Each of the mineral powder shadows are very pigmented, and apply and blend easily with a brush, and last all day without fading or settling into fine lines around the eyes.

Overall this Turkish Delight Holiday Makeup Kit is a fantastic makeup kit, that contains all the key products, as well as it is a perfect way of getting to know the products from Becca at a bargain price. I absolutely love the products, and am very impressed by the high quality and performance, and I am certainly keen to try more products from the brand.

  1. I haven't tried anything from Becca either. It's a bit annoying that they aren't easy to get a hold of instore, but I'm glad RY stock them! I've been wanting to try their stuff for ages. The lipgloss sounds lovely!

  2. Another Becca noob here, too - never tried anything of theirs. The nail polish shade looks beautiful and I've heard a lot about the Beach Tints. Great review :)
