Formulated with superfine, light-catching pearl pigments, each shade imparts soft brilliance with a hint of color. The Gold shade brightens and highlights, the Bronze hue adds warmth, and Wild Rose creates a flushed glow. Available exclusively at Sephora.

I would love that Laura Mercier face quad as eyeshadows!!! I’ve never been a fan of the Bobbi Brown Shimmerbricks but, seriously – having 3 such different “bricks” in one palette….I’m thinking those who love the left side would find the right side difficult to wear and vice versa.

Now this is what I was waiting for! ? The Shimmer Brick palette seems like a great value, but I am not so sure about that yellow gold. And as much as I love my Telluride and Sunset Glow, BB’s formula is not my favorite. Definitely liking the looks of the LM palette and I don’t own any of those yet so I have a feeling I will cave. I wish the Stila palette was powder formula but I’m sure their will be many, many others!

Becca also just posted their first holiday palette sneak peek on IG (Blushed by Light)- this is definitely going to be the year is the cheek for me!

Your pic def looks as if you have the bone structure to wear them beautifully. I got the yellow gold at a CCO, and usually forget I have it. Def prefer the other two. The LM is gorgeous.

When I saw this post I thought of you immediately! Hahahah! Something for Julia!
I’ve been resisting the Devotion Highlighter from Laura Mercier, but now that I see it again, it’s gonna be tough! I wouldn’t use the other colors, so for me this is an easy pass. Same for the other two.

I swatched the Stila Star Light Star Bright one yesterday at the Sephora appreciation event. Transcendence is pink w/ sheer white base, Kitten is the most shimmery, and Bronze is the prettiest. It feels like a cream based highlighter, and it feels very smooth to the touch, but I had to rub several times to get enough pigment. IMO, it’s ok, not great. I feel like the powder highlighters from Anastasia, Lorac, Colour Pop are just as smooth but more pigmented, but it’s a cream option

Oh that Laura Mercier palette is beautiful. I was this close to buying seduction by itself. Glad I didn’t, cuz this seems like a great deal, and I would love having 4 different colours to play with. I finally returned that awful UD Moondust palette, so now I have a credit. I think this would be a great substitution!

Omg these palettes! I’ve been drooling over them since I saw them on Instagram. They’re all beautiful but the Laura Mercier one is absolutely stunning. I’ve had my eye on her illuminators for a while so I’m super excited about this palette. The Bobbi and Stila palettes looks pretty tempting too but I’ve gone highlighter crazy this year so I’m gonna try to resist. But this holiday season is making it hard already lol

Hi Christine!

Long time reader have started really enjoying makeup in a huge way more recently and have been checking your site a lot more regularly and appreciating the hard work you do!

I was just wondering if you were able to recommend a cool toned eyeshadow palette (more neutral shades/smokey…nothing too crazy) with a mix of matte and shimmer?

Thanks!

I still want the Laura Mercier palette even though I just bought a full size of indiscrecretion earlier this summer. I also want the Bobbi brown palette. Hmmm. Maybe I will reward myself for doing well
