Sue Moxley is a brand I haven’t tried before – I know it was sold at Superdrug but I’m not sure if it’s now on limited counters now.

Sue’s brand is called Famous.

I got a few products from the range to test out!

The Shimmerbrick (hello, Bobbi Brown) in medium is a rich mixture of coppers and bronze. I do like Bobbi Brown’s shimmer bricks, although they are very…shimmery. Be careful where you place, it all I will say!

I am very impressed with Sue Moxley’s shimmerbrick because it’s so damn pigmented and soft!

Sometimes you get these stripy palettes and they don’t provide much colour payoff strip by strip so you need to swirl to make any use out of it. This one has a strong colour payoff on every strip:

Yummy! I am really impressed with how rich they look and can definitely work as eyeshadows too.

Mixed together:

It’s very pigmented so really, you need quite a light hand but I actually prefer this shimmer which is a bit creamier and seems to deal with any pores I have on my face better.

This costs £7 so is much cheaper than the Bobbi Brown Shimmerbricks so well worth a dabble.

*Famous by sue moxley is available nationwide in Superdrug. The single eye shadows are £4, palettes £9 and the shimmer brick £7.

Woahh, I have to try this! Hope they have a lighter shade, this one would make me look like an Oompa Loompa.

Hi Lucy

This is medium so there should be a light? x

Thanks Ines!
I’ll find out where stockists are as they’re tricky to find

There is a light, I bought it a few months ago and haven’t got round to opening it… it’s pinky/silvery x
