Review 3 for Shimmer Brick - Nectar
I approve this product.
-02.23.13
Quick Take: shimmery, great packaging
I don't even know where to begin about how pretty this is. I don't have visible pores at all, so I don't know how this would look on girls with large pores, but this is absolutely amazing on me. The shimmer is so fine that it makes you look dewy rather than shimmery. The color is appropriate for any skin type. It goes well with my white skin tone, as well as my mother's Middle-Eastern skin tone. My only complaint is that the color pay-off is sheer. I have to apply quite a few strokes to get color on my cheeks, though I don't mind this because it makes the color buildable. The packaging is BEAUTIFUL. I always bring this in my purse to use as a mirror to feel like a million bucks.

Review 4 for Shimmer Brick - Nectar
Natural, sheer color
-01.16.13
Quick Take: luminous sheen, natural looking, sheer subtle glow
This is a go-to blush for a light, sheer, natural color. It does not get heavy or too obvious. If you like a subtle look, this is a keeper. If you need more color, this won't do it.

Review 5 for Shimmer Brick - Nectar
easy highlighting and eyeshadow
-12.25.12
Quick Take: luminous sheen
I like to use this product when I'm in a hurry getting ready in the morning. It's quick because I can use it to highlight my cheeks and instead of choosing from another palette for eyeshadow I just choose one of the strips as my eyeshadow. The color in this is very subtle so you won't end up having to blend too much when you're short on time and you won't look overdone for work either. The colors are also very pretty and gives you a healthy glow.

Review 8 for Shimmer Brick - Nectar
love it!!
-08.17.12
This product is meant to be a sheer, shimmery, highlighting, glowy-type product. If you are looking for a blush with high payoff, this is not it. That said, I LOVE this product! It's the icing on the cake when I'm done with my makeup. I hemmed and hawed for a long time before buying (yikes, the price is a little scary) but I do not regret my purchase at all....and I'm considering some of the other colors as well!

Shimmer
-06.25.12
Quick Take: natural looking
I love BB make up line. Personally this product goes on nicely. However, I was expecting more of this compact. Its okay as a highlighter but not what I was looking for.

Just okay
-02.25.12
Quick Take: soft shimmer
It gives kind of a nice shimmer, but definitely not worth the price. I returned it because it because I didn't feel like it was necessary in my makeup routine.

Review 15 for Shimmer Brick - Nectar
Lovely
-11.03.11
Quick Take: soft shimmer
I have a light, warm skin tone and I'm able to wear this as a blush. It's a flattering coral with a very pretty sheen. This may be called Shimmer Brick, but I don't find it to be too shimmery and it definitely isn't glittery. I think the powder is fine enough that it just gives a pretty glow. I haven't tried it as an eye shadow yet, but I imagine it could be very pretty if applied the right way. I would certainly recommend this product, but I wish it were a little less pricey.

Review 16 for Shimmer Brick - Nectar
sheer color, too sparkly
-09.16.11
Quick Take: soft shimmer, sheer coverage, densly pigmented
firstly, this compact is huge! the colors are gorgeous and deeper than they appear in the image- a bit too sparkly to appear natural but can be layered over each other for high impact color. the shades compliment each other nicely but its hard to select and apply a single color due to the thin strips, best used as a highlighter for temples and eyes.

Review 17 for Shimmer Brick - Nectar
=^_^= PURE PEARL is accurate
-08.26.11
Quick Take: soft shimmer
You really need to read the description for this item. It is a shimmer Brick of Pure Pearl Color. I would say it is more of a highlighter.
Pros:
1. Beautiful Highlighter for eyes and face. Can go from a subtle glow to a noticeable one
2. Goes on beautifully over your blush with a nice angle brush.
3. Last all day long. (at least in my experience.)
4. I have very sensitive skin and break out easily this went on without a single break out.
Cons:
1. Does not come with an applicator.
2. Not a purse friendly size.
3. All colors on bar are the same. The main color would be the second one to the top.

Review 18 for Shimmer Brick - Nectar
how to use
-08.24.11
Quick Take: sheer coverage, not alot of color
I went to a Bobbi Brown counter and said this was for blush only - not for "shimmerlng lids" as described. What? Since you can blend it, would have been nice to see a quick lesson included (on paper) or on-line. Colors look better in the compact.
