Another vote for the shimmerbricks, lol. I also love her books, they're super informative!

I am an NW25 with brown/red hair and brown eyes.

+ I love the Shimmer bricks, esp Peony (if you can get your hands on it).
+ I use Peony or Apricot Blush for a healthy glow. I just lightly run my MAC #187 brush over them, dab excess blush on my hand and then stiple it on to the apples of the cheeks with the #187.
+ I saw a tutorial someone did here (hmmm...can't remember who right now) and they used Pink Truffle gloss. It was gorgeous. I keep meaning to try it.

Espresso & Black gel eye liners are the best! The new bridal palette has some gorgeous colors too.

My "glow" comes from the Rose Shimmerbrick.

My entire makeup collection was MAC until I swapped for BB Pale Pink Blush and purchased the Pink Quartz Shimmerbrick. I am in love with the blush, and the shimmerbrick is growing on me! I am wondering what else great does BB have to offer? Any rants or raves for any products in particular?

I REALLY love my Tawny Shimmer Brick/Lip Compact. And I adore my Kir Sugar Lipgloss. I don't own Slope lipcolor but it's amazing too.

Due to this thread, I went and picked up a Shimmer brick in Rose. LOVE IT! Thanks you guys! I may never go back to msfs.......

i loooooove the new pink quartz shimmer brick!!! i think her other shimmer bricks are great, too (i've got most of them). i wish she would do something like a mini shimmer brick for the eyes (ya know in colors like purples, greens, blues, browns, etc...i'd probably buy every single one). i also really like her lipglosses and lip tints.

I love the Peony shimmerbrick, and their gel liners are great.

[lilMAClady]

Her bronze shimmerbrick compact, and black ink gel liner. They are the best!

I just bought the pink quartz shimmer brick but haven't used it yet. I also bought the matching pink quartz nail polish and I love it. I bought one of each as a gift for my daughter-in law and the ma wrapped them both in pink quartz colored tissue and put in a nice magnetic closure gift box and she also put in there a sample of eye shadow. I absolutely love her liner brushes, actually my fav is the little mini one I got with a small brush set. It's about 3.5 inches long so it's so easy to use. But I also have the full size in both the reg and ultra fine liner brushes. I have small hands so the short handles work better for me. I have a few more of her brushes and love them all. I really like her blush also.

And I just wanted to add that I love her gel eyeliners more than Fluidliners. They have a smoother consistancy and glide on a lot easier.

I am using her Moisture Rich liquid Foundation in Warm Ivory and I think it's perfect for my skin! I also love the Rose Shimmerbrick..I use it both as blush and highlighter. And I have the Shimmerbrick Eye Palette and the colors are great for highlighting the browbone, etc. Oh, and try BB's eyeshadow in Mahogany...it's a great color for the eyebrows!

And love, love BB's Gel liner in black.

Gosh, I have a lot of BB. I have been wearing the LE Metallic e/s. These sold like wild fire. I went to get the plum and it was gone. I really like these. I have been reaching for these every day. I have a lot of her lipsticks, blushes, matte shadows and now some of the shimmers. Her matte e/s are very color intensive. A little goes a long way, they are more expensive due to there is more in the pan than MAC. Her blushes are the same way. You don't need much. They will last a long time. Tawny blush can be utilized as contour blush. Her brushes are awesome.

I concur on the comment about the gel liner. They are great. They stay on great too.

I like her oil-free foundation, oil-free moisturizer, compact powder, and concealer too.

I almost purchased the cream e/s, but you can not layer these with powder e/s or layer them with another cream e/s. That was the instructions per the MA. I tend to do that, so I didn't purchase them. They are beautiful.

Enjoy your new jewels.

I love her lipstick colors. Awhile back I bought her lipstick pallet. All of the colors in the pallet are great, but my favorite is Slopes. I also love her lip stain in Clay. I bought it at Woodbury Commons Premium Outlet. I guess it's a discontinued item???

[Fairybelle]

My skintone is MAC NC25-30 (depends on how much sun I get) and I love BB lipsticks in Clove (warm red brown, perfect for fall) and Brown (which is the most nautral, pinky nude brown color...so beautiful and natural). Both lippies would work with your skintone too since they are fairly neutral.

[Twinkle_Twinkle]

I like BB blushes and lipglosses, although the later is pretty expensive for what you get. I didn't like the gel liners. They are drier than Fluidliners, which I didn't like. The foundation stick and sheer powders are also great, but there isn't a sheer powder that's quite deep enough for me. Too bad because the formula and wear are great.

Shimmer Bricks! And, BB makes wonderful brushes, too!!!

[Hilly]

Aside from makeup...BB has some awesome books about makeup and beauty

[corngrl2]

I picked up the Brownie Shimmerbrick at a CCO a few months ago. I am absolutely in love with it and i can't wait to buy a new one. I use it for a highlighter, bronzer, eyeshadow and contour! You can swirl the colors together or pick out individual ones. It's pretty much awesome ;-)

There is no BB in my country, and the women haven´t even heard of it; but I´ve managed to get a pot of Creamy Concealer in the local Ebay. And boy was I lucky! Great color match (Ivory for my NW15 skin), dense creamy texture and the best coverage among all my undereye concealers. I call this product my "industrial" concealer, hehehe, for when I have the worst dark circles under my eyes.

Besides MAC, Bobbi Brown might be my favorite make-up line. I own:
Creamy Concealer Kit in Golden (the best concealer I've ever found)
Shimmer Brick in Peony, Bronze, Apricot, Pink Quartz
Blush in Coral, Apricot, Clementine, Tawny, French Pink, Plum
Eyeshadow in Black Plum
Metallic shadow palette in Forest Metallics

[DC-Cutie]

Since MAC foundations look horrid on me, I've been using Bobbi Brown since 2004 and love the coverage it gives, never changes color, never oily. But I also have everyone of her palletts, tons of bluses, the Everything mascarra, fluidline and some skincare products.
