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.

Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick Review
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.

Tips: Use with a light hand
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
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.
I think this product is quite versatile as it can be used as a blush, highlighter for contouring, or you can swipe over all the colours for a pretty glow. It's quite expensive but it does last a long time as long as you don't drop it as it is veery fragile which means it can be hard to travel with. I use it as a blush mostly for a subtle hint of colour. A little bit goes a long way and can look too shimmery if you slather it on.
Back in my pre-child life when I worked full time I would buy a Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick at the beginning of each Summer. The Bronze Shimmer Brick was by far my favourite and I almost wept when it ran out! It always went on smoothly and was very long-lasting, with a fantastic shimmer/glittery-glow!
Tips: You can easily use it as an eye shadow as well!
This shade shimmer brick has a blend of iridescent pink, copper and bronze shades which when blended together gives a bronzy pink with a hint of glitter. The compact of course if super luxe with rose gold writing and pan and a large mirror inside the compact for application.
Unfortunately this is too dark for me to use as highlighter. I do however use it as an eyeshadow and it’s gorgeous for this purpose.
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!
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
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!!
This is a super great highlighter, it gives the most beautiful bronze glow and it's super reflective but I honestly think you can find something exactly the same from another brand. Like I'm pretty sure these are between $80-$100 at farmers and it's so not worth it. The product lasts a long time and can be used as a bronzer, highlighter and eyeshadows but I just don't think I would ever spend that much money again on a highlighter
