Bobbi Brown: The "mini"collection cont... mini review

Nectar:


Plum:


Sandstone:




So these are the pricy litttle gems that Bobbi Brown have come up with as the new mini shimmerbricks that I talked about previously. These are so beautiful but tiny. 3g to be precise compared to 10.3g of the original shimmerbricks. They are also very heavy. Like, twice the weight of the original, if not more... The packaging is very beautiful and "luxe" if you will, in a shiny, darker platinum shade. I honestly don't think these will be purse/ bag friendly due to the weight even though they are fun "purse" sized. They are very rich in pigmentation though which makes them totally worth the price tag. I swiped the plum on my hand and you wouldn't expect them to be as pigmented as they are. They may be small but believe me, a small amount of product is going to go a looong way!. If you're interested in these and could only pick one, I would say go for the plum. The plum is a unique shade as I don't believe BB has released a plum shade before. Sandstone is actually a repromote, (which I already have hence me saying/ thinking there's no need to get this one...) and Nectar is actually going to be re-released in an upcoming collection, but full sized.
