Great Highlight! This is the perfect shimmer to add to any eyeshadow. I find myself wearing this in the fall and winter all of the time. A friend of mine gave this to me a while ago and I still have a lot left. The packaging sucks, it makes the product fall out everywhere and make a mess. I love this!

I bought this a couple of years ago to use as an eyeshadow. It's a gorgeous color, but I found myself tire of it rather quickly. So, the other day, I pulled it out and tried it as a blush. Wow, this makes the most gorgeous blush EVER. It's so pigmented, so you definitely need a light hand, but it applies as the most perfect rose blush with a subtle radiance. This is my go-to blush now and I'll definitely reorder when I run out!

This is my favorite bare escentuals shadow. I just do a wash over primer and add liner & mascara & it's really subtle and pretty. Not too sparkly but catches the light nicely. Good day or evening shade.

This takes FOREVER to see any color. It's pretty, but theres hardly any pigmentation. This would look beautiful as a highlighter or as a crease color. There are ways of wearing it that look gorgeous. It blends well with other colors.

This is pretty medium rose color with little bit of shimmer. Its flattering on my NC20 pale skin and blue eyes but I don't think its very remarkable or interesting color. I also realized that I really don't like loose eyeshadow-its too messy and inconvinient to carry. I won't repurchase but this is nice enough product if you like loose eyeshadows.

This is probably my favorite eyeshadow, ever! The color is gorgeous, kind of like a pink and gold mixed together, I don't really know how to explain it. I use this eyeshadow when I want a natural, flirty look. The color is beautiful against my dark brown eyes. The shimmer is soft and pretty, not crazy at all. Super gorgeous color!! I LOVE IT!!!!

So far, I've only used this as a crease color, but I really like it. It's a rosy-taupe with subtle sheen, and it goes well with other neutral shadows for a natural look that I love. I had never seen this at Sephora, but I found it poking around a new Ulta store. I'm looking forward to using this more often!

I wear this almost everyday, just pat some on the lid and line the rest of the eye with it. It is a soft, nuetral look, not boring but not too sparkly. Can be paired with so many other colors....stays on well too, even without a primer.

I really liked the color, it showed a little bit on my eyes cause my skin is a lil dark right now from tanning. But I love the shimmery look and its a very pretty color. I like BE eyeshadows because they have such purdy colors but I do have to agree that they fade easily. But its not a big problem.

This is a neutral shimmery medium brownish color that is difficult to describe but G R E A T! This shadow goes on easily, blends well, and looks good alone or with other colors. Yes, BE shadows are messy, but worth the trouble. Leslie - listen up and do something about the package!

UPDATE July 2006: This is till my favorite shadow.

This is a WONDERFUL crease shade for me. I agree that the packaging is messy, but if you're careful there isn't a big problem. I put this on in the crease over my Lancome Colour Dose in Flamingo Coast that I used as a wash. Then I used MAC eye kohl in teddy and my eyes looked great all day, the rose pearl didn't fade at all. Made my olive green eyes really stand out!

This color is a shimmery rose. I like this more as a wash. I don't care for BE products but bought a ton of samples to try and this was one of them. The color fades fast but is easy to blend.

I love this used as a blush, but it's great as a soft wash over the whole lid as well.

Love this Rose Pearl! Here's my favorite way to use it: Start with an eyeshadow base-I use Laura Geller's eyespackle, then use Nob Hill in your crease. Follow with Rose Pearl over it. Then highlight inner corners of eyes and under browbone with cultured pearl.Add a little more rose pearl with the BE blending brush if needed. GORGEOUS!!! I wear this combination at least once a week. It's great with a BE nude lip too!!

This is a dark rose/maroon colour. It's quite subtle even on my NC20 skin so it's good for everyday use. Not bad. UPDATE: My friend said it makes my eyes looked bruised.

This is one of the most BEautiful colors from Bare Escentuals. It stays well and is quite versatile. I reach for this one more than the others.

I find myself using Rose Pearl Glimmer often. It stays pretty well if you use a taklon eye brush and smooth it on. The color is very buildable and I especially like to use it as a wet eyeshadow because it really changes the color. Pinks usually don't work well for my warm complexion but this glimmer is great. Kind of a warm/goldish/pink.

This is probably one of the best universal colour of BE. Gorgeous colour and pigmentation on this loose eyeshadow/pigment.


The colour is a medium burnished rose with gold shimmer. It's incredible as an all over colour or as a crease colour for PPP.


It's very easy to blend and it leaves a nice smooth silky finish. Highly recommend this one.

Beautiful color! Rose with a hint of brown in it and a touch of shimmer. Perfect for all skin tones. Sadly, I think I am allergic of the bismuth oxychloride.

I love this gorgeous color but just like other BE shadows I rarely reach for them because they are messy. Yes I just woek out of the lid, but just opening the lid cause shimmer to go everywhere..especially on the container and each time more seemed to get everywhere. That is why I have a special bag to store these in so it dosen't get on my other makeup. This color is one of my favorites though..very versatile.
