I immediately fell in love with this product after trying my friend's one. Less is more-is they key to applying this product. Just a light swirl on the cheeks with a blusher/bronzer brush gives me a healthy glow without looking too overdone. I wear it almost everyday to uni. I love this product as it is really multi-purpose, I have used it as a blusher, bronzer, highlighter, eyeshadow and even mixed with lip gloss. I agree it does magnify imperfections although I don't really see much of this as my skin is quite good:).
Cons: No mirror.

This such a gorgeous product. It has shades in peach, bronze, and pink. It really makes my skin look really glowy when I use it as blush. It can get really orangey if I over-do it. A light hand is a must with this. Sadly, I found that this breaks me out, so I only use it now and again.

What a cute, summery look!! With my new summer tan I just add a little bit of this to my cheeks and then lightly pass over my forehead, nose and chin, instant glam bronze!!! Agreed dont overdo it though. Perfect amount of shimmer, gives you that dewy look from magazines. Love it! Will buy the other coulours to see if there as good!

This is one of those products that have to be used very conservatively or they look horrid when overdone. When you apply it lightly this delivers the most beautiful peachy bronze (duh) color to the cheeks, but use too much of you'll suddenly look like a disco ball or a contender in the Latin dancing tournament...it's that shimmery. Another thing is that it'll accentuate all imperfections (uneven texture etc.) so it's imperative to apply it over a smooth, moisturized surface. I still love how it looks and would recommend it but if your skin is very oily, troubled I'd probably skip it.

I have all the Clinique Shimmering Tones Powders and I really like them. The checkboard pattern of three alternating colors is so cute! The Shimmering Peach Bronze Palette is done in several shades of peach, bronze and champagne/pale pink with gold shimmer. if you apply this too heavy, it can settle into pores and make them look larger. I like this over a cream brush to set or with a skunk brush all over as a highlighter. Its pigmented enough to add some pop and the shimmer is very fine and isnt chunky. This is pigmented enough to wear as a blush, but then be careful for shimmer overload . Retails for $28.50.

Hmmm... I can't quite figure out how much I like this product. I'm a GGG and when I apply this all over my face, it makes it look a bit ruddy. However, when used a blusher, it gives me a healthy glow. Its probably a little too cool- toned to put all over my skin though and a little too pink for my liking. Also, I have noticed that it breaks me out on my cheeks and forehead. I have it in Golden Bronze too, and that looks perfect on me, as a bronzer, eyeshadow OR highlighter. Plus, the bronze squares in Golden Bronze are slightly lighter and less orange when applied on the skin. I wouldn't repurchase this particular shade as I don't think that it is worth the money for the effect that it gives. But I hope that these end to be LE, and become a regular product.

Gorgeous bronzey-pinky-peach color! I use this exclusively as a blush and it is soooooooo beautiful! Very pinky-peach with a soft bronze glow. Perfect for spring or summer. Gives my face the look of instant health and energy. Love it! :)

Very nice product. Gives me a subtle glow without alot of glitter. I wanted to purchase Bobbi Brown's shimmer brick, but b/c I live in Germany, it is a drive to get some decent department store cosmetics. This was at my local base exchange, so I figured I would give it a whirl. I debated on which one to get (either this or the darker bronze) and I'm glad I got this one. I love the peachy pink color and it works w/ my olive complexion. Great alternative! Would repurchase if it wasn't a limited edition (go figure..every time I like something, it winds up being LE).

This is too much as a bronzer.. it makes you look way too "made-up". But it is lovely as a blush; gorgeous peachy pink bronze glow, considering you don't use to much because you can look a bit gawdy with overapplication of this! I only would use the cube in the lighest pink gold shade as an eyeshadow for myself. Overall I think it's too expensive for a blush, which is all I really use it for.

I simply have to review this. I have gotten so many compliments when I wear this. I thought Shimmering Sweets was perfection, but this tops it! It gives a healthy, gentle sun-kissed glow. Not shine or sparkle, but glow. My minimal makeup loving hubby has given me numerous admiring glances and winks; strangers in the grocery store are commenting on my beautiful skin and lovely glow; and counter MAs are asking what I am using. I feel badly that this is so easy! I use it with a skunk brush (it is fairly pigmented and easy to get too much) swirled in all the colors as a blush and then I sweep the leftovers over my forehead and jawline. Then I mix the two lightest shades as an e/s wash (over Natural Suede Touch Tint). A little mascara, liner, lip gloss and I'm done!

This bronzer is part of the LE summer collection 2006 for Clinique. It's a beautiful bronze shimmer brick. It has bronze, pink and peachy tones. This product gives the perfect glow. I do miss a mirror in the compact, that would have been great. I just couldn't resist and had to buy it when seeing it in the store. I will definitely wear this lovely bronzer on the cheeks this summer, I will try it on the lid too.
I am usually not very fond of Clinique's packaging but this little compact with bronzy, almost see-through lid, is very beautiful. I foresee buying more Clinique products in the future. Besides this product I just love the butter shine lip sticks!!
For the record, I'm a pale blonde with fair skin.

LE for summer 2006... at least in Norway. Beautiful blush/bronzer with three colors: as the name says it's peach, bronze and kinda of a berry shade. No glitter, but lots of shimmer. Gives the perfect glow. Could have been a mirror in the compact, but other than that I'm pleased.

I am a cool-toned PPP, and this works great on me as well . It is a mosaic of shimmering bronzes, pinks and peaches, just gorgeous. It looks just as good on as it does in the pan. I am usually not a big clinique fan, but this product and the sweet treats blush really surprised me, very nice products.

I am SO glad I got this. Clinique has certainly revamped, and this past year have really put out some nice products. This is a beautiful bronzer, goes on nicely and gives a fresh, warm glow and not chunky glitter or orangey/dirty looking. I am NC30-35 and this suits me very well. I love using this both as a blush/bronzer and also as an eyeshadow, it's really beautiful. You can use this light or build it up without looking muddy. I would buy this again and recommend it to anyone, I think the color range is pretty vast on who can use it. Most certainly a staple for a natural summer look!

I finally caved and got one of these. Clinique hasn't really been my favourite brand lately, but i am loving this! The texture of this is fabulous, soft and easy to apply. It looks so pretty in the pan!
Once applied, it is pretty true to it's namesake in that it is a really nice shimmery peachy bronze. The shimmer is reminicent as to those of the older MAC MSF's in that its not super glittery, but just a subtle "glow". It gives me a great just out of the sunkissed glow to my tanned skin!
