WILD ROSE BOBBI BROWN SHIMMER BRICK COMPACT - SWATCHES AND REVIEW
BOBBI BROWN Wild Rose Shimmer Brick Compact is part of the Bobbi Brown Rose Gold collection for Spring 2012 (read about it here). Of the two Shimmer Bricks, Rose Gold (read about it here) and Wild Rose, the latter is my favorite of the collection. I love the varying degrees of shimmering pinks and rose colors that are blended throughout this compact. Starting from the top of the compact (closest to the mirror) the first strip is a pale pink, the second strip is a warm frosty pink, the third strip is a rose-y blushing pink, the fourth strip is a mauve-y pink, and the fifth strip is a perky pink color.
Now there is one thing to note about this compact. The middle strip, the rose-y blushing pink strip, has a touch of glitter (and you know that I really, really hate glitter), but in this case its not a bad thing. Honestly, its not! No, it actually enhances the overall rose pink color of the compact; especially once the colors are all blended together. It gives a beautiful flush with a gorgeous rose-y pink glow to the face. OMG, it is amazing!
I've used the Wild Rose Shimmer Brick compact a couple of times so far and I'm definitely loving the results. Besides it being an amazing blush / highlight powder, it also makes for a great eyeshadow as well. So I will follow up with a future post that will include a FOTD look. Be sure to check back in a few days for that post and a whole lot more.
