Details & care

What it is: An allover powder that instantly illuminates and gives skin a healthy-looking glow.

Who it's for: Porcelain Pearl is ideal for alabaster-to-light skin tones, Brightening Nudes for light-to-medium skin tones and Bronze Glow for dark-to-deep skin tones.

Why it's different: Infused with a skin-brightening blend of mulberry, grape and scutellaria extracts, as well as sodium hyaluronate (chosen for its moisture magnet-like effect), this finishing powder helps keep skin fresh and smooth-looking. It's all dressed up in a metallic silver palette that includes an interior mirror for an elegant feel no matter where you touch up.

How to use: Apply all over the face with a face blender brush for a radiant glow. Use it as a light blush on cheeks or even as eyeshadow with a quick swipe of your fingertip.

Pro tips: Layer before blush for a soft, seamless flush.

Great all over face glow!

I purchased the Bright Finish powder and was pleasantly surprised of how fine the powder is! This powder is finely milled and gave me a glow and not the glitter! I had tried multiple brands of face luminizer and brightener and they all seemed to be glittery and had fall out. I was happy to put this on my face in the morning and no strong scent at all. I used this as setting powder after CC cream. It is more subtle and not garish so us matured ladies can get away with it & get our glow on! I recommend this and also the Celestial Powder from Kevyn Aucoin.

Disappointed

I LOVE Bobbi Brown products but I was very disappointed with this powder. To be honest, I could not notice any difference after applying it. For $50, I certainly expected more than I recieved. I will be returning it this weekend.

Definitely beige

I purchased this powder brick in Bright Finish for fair to medium skin tones. Due to my extreme paleness, I wanted something to add some color to my face. If you are looking for a hint of beige color, this palette is for you! If you are looking for more of a pale pink color, go with BB's color brick in the Pink. (I purchased both.) Bright Finish would be perfect for that sun-kissed, summery look (w/o the sun damage!). It definitely evens out skin tone w/o sparkle and looks very natural - like a very light tan. I'm only giving it 4 stars because I'm unsure if powder products accentuate wrinkles (i.e. my forehead), and since both these bricks have color, they look unnatural if you omit applying to certain areas of the face. Still, they are definite "keepers!"

Okay

Well I'm not sure this product makes a big difference. It depends on what kind of foundation you wear I think. I got a sample of liquid foundation and with the liquid I can see a little difference in a good way. It kinda adds a white powder to your skin to make it look brighter like is advertised. But I usually wear bare minerals and this product looks funny with BM because it makes me look pasty white. Maybe because it doesn't soak in with the powder. I won't be buying this product again due to high cost and little results...but like I said maybe with liquid foundation it'd be worth it.

Subtle Finishing Touch

I like this product. I debated about getting it for awhile without trying it and I finally did. I use it all over and then use the white on the inner edges of my eyelids. It's not a big wow, but a subtle one. Perfect for me at the age of 48.

Really Brightens Skin!

This BB brightening powder really brightens the skin and gives it a youthful glow. I really like it because it does all of this with a minimum of shimmer. Only one square on the powder cake has shimmer--the rest are all matte. So it looks really natural, when applied with a large fluffy brush, and can be worn in the daytime, even in sunlight, without looking like one of the vampires in "Twilight!" LOL! Also, a small eyeshadow brush can be used to apply the shimmer square powder to the eyelids.
