Oh it’s a black thing – BECCA Foundation
Ah just as soon as my ‘foundation woes’ post went up, I had a call from the lovely girls at BECCA to show me what they had to offer in way of make up that looks great on black skin. I was super impressed when I arrived at their Pelham Street boutique. Gorgeously lit, beautifully decadent with feathered curtains, comfy sofas, chandeliers (I LOVE 
chandeliers!) It really was the perfect ‘dressing room’ setting, ideal for playing around with various face paints with the help of the friendly make up artist.
I’ve never been able to get over the trauma of having my make up done in the middle of a horribly busy department store that shall remain nameless. It was like being shoved through a conveyor belt in a meat market.
Anyway I just started using Becca’s stick foundation in Chocolate and it is FANTASTIC. It glides on really easily and makes me look like a much better version of myself –i.e. I just look like I am naturally gorgeous. Come on, no one actually wants to LOOK like they are wearing foundation. Oh and it also has SPF 30+ which is impressive but unsurprising seeing as the founder – Rebecca Morrice Williams – is Australian. What else can I tell you? It is only slightly longer than the middle of your palm so it is so easy to cart around, which truth be told most foundations are not. All in all, Becca, bravo!
