Nectar
Becca Nectar Ultimate Lipstick LoveBecca Nectar Ultimate Lipstick Love ($24.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a bright, medium-dark pink-coral with subtle, warm undertones and a cream finish. It had nearly opaque color payoff in a single stroke, which applied to my lips without tugging or dragging.
The texture was creamy with moderate slip, but it had good adhesion and didn’t slide around while worn. There was a touch of streaking along the outer edge, though it wasn’t visible in person. It stayed on well for five hours and felt moisturizing over time.

Formula Overview
$24.00/0.12 oz. – $200.00 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to have an “ultra-creamy” texture with “eight-hour wear” and “pure color in one swipe.” They’re real bold with the “eight-hour wear” claim when it is a softer, creamier formula that’s very comfortable to apply and to wear… and definitely not the longest-wearing formula I’ve come across–which is likely not a deal-breaker for those who aren’t looking for long-wear.
The wear averaged between four and six hours with some of the deeper, richer shades (like a red or berry) lasting six hours or longer. They wore down evenly and were lightly to moderately hydrating while worn. The pigmentation was nearly opaque to opaque for most shades, and the majority of shades applied evenly and sat well on my lips without emphasizing my natural lip texture or settling into my lip lines.
They had a sweet, vanilla scent but no discernible taste.

Poppy
Becca Poppy Ultimate Lipstick LoveBecca Poppy Ultimate Lipstick Love ($24.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a brighter, light-medium coral-orange paired with a luminous, cream finish. It read coral to my eye, but it was more orange than most “coral” shades I had. The consistency was lightweight, creamy without being too thick or too slippery, and was comfortable to apply and to wear.
It had semi-opaque, buildable pigmentation that applied fairly evenly to my lips but was a touch streaky along the edge. It wore nicely for five hours and felt hydrating while worn.
