Hey Girls,
Hope You're All Well!
So, I'm Faced with a bit of a tough decision. I can't decide which is better - the bobbi brown shimmer brick or The Sun Beam liquid highlighter?

Please also take into consideration that I have a much warmer skin tone, to be more specific a NW43 in Mac and Warm Almond In Bobbi Brown.

Thank You??

Well, which shimmer brick? I believe there are about 4 or 5 choices.

I haven't really decided yet as I was going to ask a consultant for assistance but I've been considering the bronze or the nectar shimmer bricks..

I say go with Bobbi Brown. Although right now BB has two new ones at Sephora. They're not exactly shimmer bricks. They're more like mosaics. They have a pink one & a bronze one.

I'm in South Africa, our only stockists for BB are Red Square so if those mosaics are available here I'll surely check them out.

Thank You Marleen

One tip on mosaics that I wish I knew. All mosaics are different. I have the pink one & unfortunately mine has more white than pink. Not like this pic where there's more pink than white. I would advise opening the compact before buying just to make sure you're getting what you want. Also, the mosaics are more finely milled than the shimmer bricks. The mosaics are smooth & creamy whereas the shimmer bricks are grittier but more shimmery, & chunkier than the mosaics.

I'd go with the BB Shimmer Brick. I collect Bobbi Brown bricks and they are awesome multi-taskers. Sometimes I use the individual shades within the bricks as eyeshadows and to tone down bright matte blush shades. With the right brush you can avoid the chunky/grittier texture. I use a big fluffy face brush from Bobbi Brown when I want to top off my blush or use as a highlighter.

I'll definitely keep that in mind Marleen. Thank You
