This is for you @Mango13. A comparison between Bobbi Brown's Copper Diamond and Dior's Amber Diamond:



BB's Copper Diamond on top, Dior's Amber Diamond on bottom.
CD has more gold in it than AD. Both are smooth and NOT glittery, and both have > 7 hrs wear-time.

Aaaaannnd I spoke to soon. It's now out of stock on Sephora's site. I hope it comes back in stock in time for the sale.

Are you as impressed with it as you'd hoped? I really want to love minr but my pores don't agree. Maybe I'll swatch Copper Diamond at the counter--the LE packaging is amazing!

(its so nice to admit that I would consider buying makeup because of the packaging and know that others will understand lol).
I've never been a fan of shimmer bricks. I always thought they were too glittery. This is more like my Becca products. It's smooth and finely milled.
PS I find the packaging for the CD to be adorbs.

Yeah, I got pink glow during that sale. Oh well, I'm just happy they still had it. I love the packaging as well, and also the name of the collection. Scotch on the rocks is my favorite adult beverage, lol

I have to agree about the formula---it's better than I'd expected and it does rival some other highlighters in that regard. I really like Becca's Opal & Rose Gold, but I'm
struggling to warm up to my Becca Champagne Gold.

I swatched Becca's Champagne Gold again tonight and I struggle to understand who its going to work for? I can't imagine darker skinned beauties enjoying it. Neither can I imagine porcelain girls wearing it either.

I hear a lot of chatter about Becca highlighters, but I don't think I've seen one in person before! I'm a fair skinned girl, does anyone have recommendations for which of the highlighters to check out? :)

I've heard that Opal and Moonstone are a hit with the lighter ladies.

Thank you so much for taking the time to do the comparison. Even though there is a difference between the two I'm really glad I got CD. If AD was still available I could definitely justify getting it.

Is the laura mercier matte radiance baked powder in the highlighter shade good enough for nc30 skintone?

I was hoping to get one for my friend for Xmas but it's oos at Sephora and it's an online only product. BOOOOO she was obsessed with it when I wore it to a party...like literally stopped all conversation going on and asked what I put on my face LOL

Can you get to a Nordies? They have it and if you have their card it would be worth getting it on a double points day.
