Yeah, Metal Rock is a beautiful chocolate brown. It's not a highlighter at all - for your skintone. It does work for contouring but it is very sparkley so be aware of that. If you need a highlight you might want to try Shooting Star or Shimpagne as Pixie recommended. I personally like Shooting Star, used lightly. I also like So Ceylon, Gold Deposit and Naked You and Lightscapade as highlighters.
