The original Shimmer Brick Compact. This shimmering, brush-on powder creates a deep, bronzy glow. Works well with neutral and deep blush shades.

Sweep the Face Blender Brush through all five shades and dust lightly on cheekbones after blush. Focus on applying shimmer on the top of cheekbones.

Shimmer sensation!

My first ever Bobby Brown product, I brought one off trademe that was barely used, the photo doesn't do it justice!

It is very pigmented, a small amount goes a long way, you can build up the colour as much as you like and its easy to blend. I used to use this as an eyeshadow for the inner corners of my eyes and under the arch of my brow. It looks great putting a small amount on your cupids bow, this product is so versatile! Sadly last year it dropped off my counter and smash the shimmer brick, I have recently purchased the Chichi shimmer brick which is good but not as amazing as the Bobby Brown highlighter. Its on my list of things to buy again, I would highly recommend it to anyone who is wanting to purchase a powder highlighter, this is the best quality highlighter I have tried and worth the money if you can afford it.

Tips: You can use this highlighter on the inner corners of your eye, above the cupids bow, in the middles of your lipstick, under your eyebrow arch, I also liked to put this on the out side points of my eyebrows, and across my collar bones, this shimmer brick has so many uses, so versatile and easy to carry

Shimmer Me Up

This was something i had ogled over for ages, but honestly, i did find it hard to justify the price tag, so put it off for a long time. Luckily for me, a beautiful BR babe was parting with this, and i snapped it up in a heart beat.

This shimmer brick comes in a black shiny square palette, with the words Bobbi Brown in white. So simply yet classy and sophisticated. This is one of the product i love having out whether i use it or not, just because it looks so classy. The palette has a flip top lid, which closes really securely, and it has a handy mirror inside.

I have this in the shade Bronze, which has 5 shades (and i am pretty sure its the same as the one in this display picture for this review product). It has gorgeous shade which look beautiful swatched separately, and look amazing swirled and used together, so it can be worn in a variety of ways to create different looks. I would consider this a warm shimmer brick, but i like warm tones so i am happy.

The colours are pigmented and quite fine, with long-lasting power. I do find this shimmer brick very shimmery, and sometimes it can just look a bit like glitter on my face depending on how i use it. When i swirl the colours together, i use it over my cheeks for a glow, which is a look that just brightens my whole face. I only use the white as a highlighter for my cheeks, and only when i want a shimmery look. Plus another bonus is that these colours can create gorgeous eye looks, so the perfect makeup item to take when travelling.

Honestly, i really like this product, and i do think it is worth the hype. I have only had it for around 6 months, but use it regularly, and i havent even made a dent. It creates a beautiful glow to my face, and that's a glow i would pay this amount of money for so... if you are sitting on the fence about this product, go and get it!

Best Christmas Present Ever

I usually don't like bronzers or blushes with more than 2 shades incorporated, I have had a few before & end up using all of one shade & heaps of another left over. This was not the case, however, with this one. not only can I pick shades & use them for neutral eye shadow looks, I can also make my bronzer lighter or darker depending on what type of look i'm doing, and it seriously lasts forever, it barely looks like i've touched it & I use it every day I wear makeup.

Tips: Chloe Morello loves it, isn't that incentive enough? Haha

Bobbi Brown Bronze Shimmer Brick

I fell in love with this product as soon as I tried it on. I was looking for a subtle but noticeable highlighter and found this worked perfectly on me. Such a beautiful highlighter that blends in perfectly giving you that warm shimmery effect. and lasts all day. Well worth the money!

Tips: Glad to see the price has come down, I bought this at the Bobbi Brown counter for $99 a long while ago. Tip? Get it now - You won't be disappointed!!

I absolutely love this product AND was willing to part with $99 to have it! $60 is a bargain!! Maybe you could visit a Bobbi Brown store/counter and try it before you buy it :-)

A great all round multi-purpose product

I have recently purchased this and am in love! I've found so many different uses and looks that I can do with this product, depending on what colours you swirl together to get a highlighting bronzing effect, or using each shade separately as eyeshadows and a brow bone highlighter. The colour pay off is great, such gorgeous shades in the brick. The shimmer is amazing without looking chunky. Well worth the investment in my opinion.

What a bargain for $65.99!

I bought the Bronze Shimmer brick seriously about 6 years ago and its still going strong even though I have used it to death! At the time I bought it for $99 and thought I had got my moneys worth but now that it is a lot cheaper I would 110% recommend. The powder is super fine so you end up with a glossy shimmer rather than powdery and each individual stripe can be used as eye shadow wet or dry too. So versatile and beautiful on all skin tones.

Tips: Use wet for an intense colour on the eyes

Very shimmery

This is definitely a SHIMMER brick. Because I am very fair I am not able to use this as a highlight but I instead use it for an overall glow on cheeks over blush. This works well as eyeshadow too. I like the colour but if over-applied it can become very metallic looking and make my skin's flaws more apparent.

Tips: Use with a light hand

Great Product.. But is it worth that price?

I purchased the Bobbi Brown Bronze Shimmer Brick a while ago, and I'm still using this product. Now this product is built up of 5 different shades of power, allowing you to sweep all over the shade to create a shimmer for your check bones, or you can use individually.

I also use this product as an Eyeshadow Palette, as the colours are so pretty and the shimmer is perfect. The product is buildable, not too intense when first applied but can become very shimmery if too much is applied.

Overall, the product is pretty pricey but if you can balance out the cost with the use for the product it's not too bad.

expensive haha!

its a very light product that you can apply on your cheeks and anywhere where the Sun hits on your face its really light to put on and you can use the brushes that shannxo uses on YouTube. usually I like mix all of the colors and dust it all over my cheekbones because it makes it a bit shiny and gives a glow it usually lasts all day but if I put a fair amount on us I only lightly dusted it will last maybe 4 to 5 hours. Not for everyday use because its very expensive but if you go out on special occasions then its really good and looks good all night/day. Lasts long if you use it properly
