FOR BEST RESULT
I think these colours work best as a blush rather than as an eyeshadow. Thus, I would take a brush and use all 5 shades for my cheeks and the lightest colour as a highlighter for the under-eye and nose area.
"Sweep the Face Blender Brush through all five shades of Shimmer Brick Compact and dust lightly on cheekbones after blush. Focus on applying shimmer on the top of cheekbones - where light naturally hits the face - for the most flattering look"

WHY I LOVE THIS PRODUCT
This is my first Forever 21 Beauty purchase and I must say that I'm loving it. The blush is really pigmented and it looks really natural against my skin colour. I first had noticed this item because it reminded me a lot of the Bobbi Brown Shimmer Bricks. I don't own one because I think it's too expensive at $40 CAD, but I had always wanted to try it. So I can't say if this is a dupe of the Bobbi Brown Shimmer Bricks, but I really like the Forever 21 one. Here are the swatches of the first 3 colours and then the last 2:As you can tell from the picture, the colours are really vivid and bright. It's also very pigmented, which I really like a lot. Like I had mentioned above, the two lightest colours can definitely be used as highlighters for the bridge of your nose or for under the eyes. Some of you may be concerned with buying skin products from Forever 21 because it may not be the best quality. However, I've been using this for over a month now and it hasn't caused my skin to break out or caused any irritations. However, since everyone's skin is different, I do suggest that you test this product out for a week or so on your arms before using it on your face.
