Hiya Mixbagers. So I've finally got round to my review of the Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick! You may have heard lots about it with it being a multiple award winning product and all, and I'm happy to say it meets the hype! I was spoilt by Santa this Christmas and received this beaut amongst a couple of other yummy goodies and it's been my go-to blusher for nights out and special occasions ever since! Why not every day I hear you ask? Well, as much as I love the colour and shimmer, for everyday wear I find the shimmery pigment a little to much as I prefer to go a touch more matte, and besides, I love it so much I don't want it to run out anytime soon! 

I have the shimmer brick in the colour palette, Rose, and the different tones and shades blend really well together to create a beautiful, soft, feminine flush! I apply it using my No.7 Blush Brush and find a couple of presses into the palette is plenty to achieve the right amount of colour! To sum up the colour, the 'Rose' palette gives a gorgeous cooler toned pink flush/metallic combination that can be built up for a stronger tone if needs be! The white shade of the blush creates a fantastic highlighter for cheek bones and using my Real Techniques brush I also dab it on my eyebrow bone and along my nose for an extra shimmery, dewy look! 

The packaging, although sleek and chic in classic Bobbi Brown style, is a little hefty for the product, but it does have a nice sized mirror and I like to think protects it a little more from cracking if you were to drop it! A tick in the box from us clumsier ladies! 

Would I recommend it? Yes! I would definitely recommend this blush if you like your girly glows! It's super pretty and perfect for a shimmery finish!


Have any of you used the Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick?
