This is a very beautiful color in the pot but on my eyes a different story. It's slightly peach pink on the lid and very subtle. I am having trouble with BE shadows in general. Unlike MAC pigments which adhere to the eyelid easily and have great staying power, BE minerals do not go smooth on my eyelid.

Love this shadow! The name is misleading, as it is definitely noticeable, but in a good way! Very fresh and shimmery! And you barely need any shadow to get a nice effect, so it will last a long time!

How pretty!!! Ive had this in my makeup bag for years. I love it! Its not too intense of a color to distract from the natural beauty of your eyes' shape and color, but the sparkle draws attention to the eyes without making it "too obvious makeup." This is the one product I use to transform my day look into a night look. If I do all my makeup essentially the same but put this on instead of my daily eyeshadow, it gives me such a glamorous look. And it goes on without looking cakey. And at this price, what a great accessory!

Dry, this is very subtle, like a metallic version of my own eyelid. Hence the name, I suppose. However, this glimmer's true beauty comes out in the BE "foiling" technique -- brush on dry, then wet your brush and swipe on another layer. Gorrrrgeous!

As other users have pointed out, this is a lovely neutral pink color with loads of shimmer. Despite the fact that there's lots of glitter in it, it's actually very subtle and would probably accentuate any eye color or age. I love it because it lets me have a "non-made-up" look with a little pizazz.
Will repurchase, but a pot goes a LONG way. I'll probably retire before I'll need another one.

Bare Skin, where have you been all my life! This was love at first sight. Since I bought it a week ago, I've used it every day:) It is so easy to apply, and the colour compliments my khaki-coloured eyes really well. Perfect for my natural-bright-eyed-everyday-look:)

I love this glimmer. In the jar, it looked like it might be too red for my rosy skin, but it goes on a beautiful pale peachy pink with subtle gold and pink shimmer. It really brings out my green eyes. I love this product! I wish that BE would use a sifter on this though because its easy to lose a lot of the product if you drop the container. Also if you get too much on the brush, it can get messy so they could really improve the packaging, but I love this glimmer!

Pale shimmery golden brown in the pot with a pinkish cast when on the skin. Very pretty as a wash or base colour.
I think this is a must have for anyone cool or neutral toned or those with blue or green eyes. It's stunning.
I give this colour as gifts alot and it looks awesome on everyone I have given it to.

It appears I'm one of very few people that this color doesn't look good on. It really looks bad on me. My eyes look tired, dirty and sweaty (!?) when I wear it. Who ever heard of sweaty eyelids? I have gotten them through the magic of cosmetics.

I guess this colour looks different on everyone.On me it looks like a pale copper with hints of pink.It looks very pretty with my light green eyes.Really makes them pop! The product can be messy if it's your first time using BE glimmers - just a little bit goes a long way in application & coverage.I use an eyeshadow brush to apply it, just need to very lightly dip it in the product & I'm all set! So when you think about it that way,even thought it comes in a tiny jar - you're really scoring on product here!The colour lasts a good long time too.What a beautiful way to make up your eyes. I love it!
TWO THUMBS UP FOR BE!!!!!!!

I really like this particular glimmer. It's a cool light mauvey-pink w/lots of shimmer. In the sunlight, the shimmer is blue/purple which adds to the cool tone of the color. It creates a nice--almost wet--look that makes my eyes look bigger w/o being too flashy. Got this as part of the Beach set. Love all 4 glimmers that came in it.

This creates the best dewy eye look without all the goopy thick eye glosses. It's actually a light champagne shimmer. On, just a hint of color is noticable, but the shimmer creates a beautiful wet look. These glimmers are really fantastic!

This is a really pretty wash. The color's been described a million times before. I would say that this is on the cooler side of neutral... it'd probably be gorgeous on blue eyes.

This is one of my favorite BE glimmer shadows and the one I use the most. It's a great neutral "bare skin" shade with a hint of pink in it. It's a great wash color that you can also build to make it a darker shade. I've already repurchased after finishing up the rather generous sample I got on ebay. This one is definitely one of my HG e/s.

Awesome shimmery pink/nude color. Really brightens up the eye area & is a pretty versatile color. On me, with an eye base, this lasts until about the end of the work day (5pm-ish). EDIT-I'm taking off one lippie because I can't get this to last on me. The first day I tried it, it stayed on me until just before the end of the workday, but subsequent wearings barely even made it past lunch. I wasn't doing anything different so I'm not sure why it doesn't last anymore. For the price, I don't think I'd get this one again.

Absolutely beautiful pinky tan color- more tan than pink. Its so shimmery but it doesn't look gawdy. Its brightens up the eye area. This is a great neutral color!

BE has done it again! This is such a beautiful and workable color to add a touch of shimmer and splash to any eye color. Very complimenting.

I am really loving this color-it perfectly replicates the new spring 'nudey' eye looks...it's better paired with a good base,such as the aforementioned MAC Untitled paint.
This also ends up looking glossy,adding to the effect....I have never worn eye gloss because I have been afraid of the 'slide' factor...LOL.
This color is a light tan/hint of bronze with maybe some subtle pinky tones-very hard to describe but oh so pretty on the eyes!
I am a PPP redhead with green/blue eyes.

Very pretty shade of pinkish-tan with flecks of gold/lavender. Not as pretty as Heart, but a great color nonetheless. Would look great on anyone... it's truly neutral. Only a 4 because it fades, even with a base, although if you pair with MAC Paint in Untitled lasts MUCH longer.
