Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick

 

Rose

Apricot

Contents: 10.3g / .4oz @

Price: HK$380.00@

 

I thing the shade apricot has already been discontinued, it's no longer available at the Bobbi Brown's webpage.

 

Anyway, I got these 2 shimmer bricks ages ago, and I have hardly touch them, because everytime I wear them, I look like a grease ball. I'm unsure if is the product or a skin reaction that I have, but everytime I use it, my face appears to be oilier than usual.

According to Bobbi Brown's webpage:

My Opinion:

I'm not sure why this product is classified as a bronzer, because the shades that I've got look more like a blush, and I've been using it as a blush.

Antigua is a luminescent pink while Maui does have some shimmers in it.

Bobbi Brown Tinted Eye Brightener

Shade: Medium

Contents: 7ml

Price: HKD290.00

According to QVC's webpage:

What is it: A lightweight concealer to instantly brighten under-eye circles and refresh your look.

Who is it for: Ideal for anyone--women, men, even teens--who need minimal under-eye coverage. Also an ideal alternative to concealer on weekends or to touch up your regular concealer throughout the day.

How do I use it: Apply a small amount to under-eye area and pat to blend.

• Light Bisque: for light skin tones that burn first, then tan
• Light to Medium Peach: for medium to tan skin tones that tan easily
• Dark Peach: for medium golden skin tones that tan very easily
• Deep Peach: for dark skin tones
• Made in Canada

My Opinion:

This product now comes in a pen form, the one that I've got is the older version that has been discontinued.

I had this for ages, and didn't really use it until recently when I've finally figured that this isn't a concealer, therefore it won't conceal my circles (it took me a while to figure....)

On my well rested days (note: even with 12hr sleep I still have circles, the intensity varies, but is always there), I've been using this before my concealer, and it seems to brighten the whole under eye area. 

I've finally finished my pot, and after reading several negative reviews about the pen form, (especially when the price for the pen form remains unchanged while the quantity of product has been reduced to 1.5ml), I've finally decided to get YSL touch eclat instead of BB.

顏色: Medium

容量: 7ml

價錢: HKD290.00

我的意見：

我那瓶眼底光亮霜是舊包裝，已經停產，新包裝是筆型（價錢沒有改變，但新包裝只有1.5ml容量）。

其實很久以前己買了這瓶遮瑕膏，但到最近才發現原來這瓶並非遮瑕膏，難怪什麼也遮不到....

當小妹擁有足夠睡眠時（註：小妹睡多少個種都會有黑眼圈，唯一分別是深淺度）會於眼底先搽一層眼底光亮霜（曾加眼底的光澤），之後再上遮瑕膏，我會用這瓶眼底光亮霜取代中和霜（corrector)。

剛剛用完這瓶，再上網看過別人對新包裝的評價後，還是決定買YSL Touche Eclat好了。

My Opinion:

This corrector and concealer duo is basically the only product that i can use in the winter to cover my genetic dark circles. I'm still trying to find something with better coverage and that it won't crease, but up till today, this is still the best that I could find. Please note that I'm not entirely satisfy with this duo (it creases slightly and it doesn't entirely cover my dark circles), but I just haven't discover anything better.....
