Becca Orbit (2) Light Shifter Dewing TintBecca Orbit (2) Light Shifter Dewing Tint ($ 30.00 for 1 ounce) is a light-medium peach with warmer undertones and a bright sheen. It had a light, more gel-cream consistency that was fluid and spreadable without being too thin or too heavy. Hence, it was easy to use as an all-over tinted moisturizer or as a more targeted, standalone highlighter. I had no problem applying it over the foundation as it didn’t lift or stain.
It had sheer coverage when I spread it all over my face and mixed it with another product. It had semi-transparent to medium pigmentation when applied to my cheekbones as a stand-alone highlighter. That shade lasted for nine hours as a tinted moisturizer and eight and a half hours as a standalone highlighter.

It is described as a “pure tinted moisturizer” so the shades are “flexible” while giving an “ultra-moist finish”. When I saw the promotional video and looked through the ingredients list, it was very reminiscent of other tinted bulb products that are often billed more as luminizers than tinted moisturizers. I initially bought the three shades that are closer to my skin tone in case they are actually more tinted moisturizers than Luminizers, but I would definitely say they are Tinted Luminizers.
The brand states it can be used on the “highlights” for “targeted radiance” or “all over the face for maximum moisture”. Carrying it everywhere gives you a very high gloss, shiny finish that is probably “too much” for some (certainly perfect for some). I think it’s cheap compared to other bulbs to be used as highlighter, mixed with moisturizer / primer, or used anywhere, like Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter (which has a thinner consistency and higher amount of pearls) or AURIC Glow Lust (which has a thick consistency, shiny rather than damp).
The consistency was like a light gel cream – not too runny, but not too thick or too heavy, so it spread lightly over the face for full coverage, but on the highlights of the foundation (over bare skin or on) could be tapped on top of the foundation) without a tendency to lift it up.
The cover was almost to half sheer when I tried applying it all over my face as it spread quite well, and I was able to achieve a half sheer buildable cover if I patted it on the highlights of my face with a fingertip. As expected, it was plain when mixed with basic products. However, it is most flexible when used mixed with something, and you should align yourself more closely with the undertone than just the depth for all of its use.
It was worn for eight to nine hours before it looked worn and faded when used on its own or as a standalone highlighter (on cheekbones, bare skin).
