Closer Look: Becca Lychee and Dragonfruit Beach Tint

So I succumbed to two of the three new Beach Tint shades... Lychee will replace Nars Gaiety and Dragonfruit the Sleek Pumpkin Blush by 3 trio in my wardrobe.

Shown in context of some other Beach Tints here, this is how they sit against the other shades I own:

Don't they round things out nicely? :D Evidently I am a big fan of the Beach Tint formula (have been for years) -- while matte and genuinely waterproof/tenacious, they sit comfortably on my dry lips and cheeks, and the revolting synthetic fruity scents remain psychological irritants, never physical ones.

That said, Dragonfruit is a noticeable improvement on the formula of the other Beach Tints -- less watery, more pigmented and even more smoothly blendable [in practice -- for some reasons these are tricky to swatch in stripes]. I hope you can kind of tell by how well its blob holds together / clings to my arm, compared with the others above. It's also very much my kind of colour. Seriously:
On the other hand, Lychee is more of a departure -- I've swatched it against the two closest pinks in my stash, and it's so conspicuously different from both that I whacked on my other two Beach Tints (a light one and a cool one) to set off its lightness and coolness further.


Now, in practice on both lips and cheeks! Because I think I've just about spammed you with enough swatches while disclaiming that these don't swatch very well....




Eyes: lazy haze of Becca eyeshadows in Chiffon, Bouclé and Lamé. L'Oreal Telescopic False Lash Waterproof mascara.
Basics: Burberry Sheer Touch Concealer 01 under eyes, Browlash EX Natural Brown pencil through brows, Rouge Bunny Rouge Sea of Clouds to bedew.

Apologise for slightly fat lip....sometimes I wake up with those :/ The Mystery of the Sleepwalking Snacker.

For extrapolation, this is what some other Beach Tints look like on me: Guava, Watermelon (scroll down to looks 3/4) and Raspberry.
