Review: Highlighter - Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick Nectar

One of the star products of the Bobbi Brown makeup empire is definitely her shimmer bricks. And Bobbi Brown Nectar ($38 for 0.4 oz) is an outstanding creation of the bunch. It is a peachy/coral sheen that can be a blush on lighter skintones and a highlighter on darker skintones. It's the least shimmery among the shimmer bricks, which I love. I can wear it alone (NC 30 to 35) or paired with blonzers. The results are always absolutely natural and gorgeous. The texture is buttery smooth, though the shimmer is not as fine and delicate as Dior Shimmer Star. It's THE perfect spring/summer highlighter/blush.
Nectar is the least shimmery compared to Pink Oyster, Rose Diamond and Gilded Garden. Also, it's very pigmented so a little goes a long way and it'd be ages till you hit the pan. Strongly recommend it!
