Bobbi Brown Pot Rouge for Lips and Cheeks

First to recommend

3 people recommended this item

Description

This is basically a satin/semi-matte lipstick in a pot. It's wearable on both cheeks and lips. Chocolate Cherry is a very deep shade (like burgundy wine) and gives a nice brown/red flush to cheeks if used lightly but works slightly better as a lip stain on me. I give high Palacinka Points for the product overall. Wonderful texture and high long-lasting pigment. It's the first cheek & lip color product I've used that truly works on both the cheeks and lips - doesn't slide, cake, or feather...and doesn't dry to the usual powdery texture. (via palacinka)

Bobbi Brown Cosmetics

4 people recommended this item

Description

First off, I am a bit biased because I LOVE Bobbi Brown products! However, I've actually never used a palette before, because I always figured there would only be just a few colors that actually worked for me, and the rest would be a waste of money...but that's all changed with this product. The packaging is ideal - a top compartment with the 3 lips colors and 1 lip gloss, that cleverly slides out sideways to reveal...three very neutral eye shadows on the bottom. This palette also comes with two mini (3-4 inches long) brushes. One brush is double-ended with a smudge-brush, which I used to apply the chocolate/gray shadow and at the other end a basic shadow brush. The other brush is for the lipcolor. A very nice sized mirror is included at the top as well.

Now on the colors - eyeshadows are included: Bone, a yellowish white (great for highlighting the brown bone area), Cement, a med. matte brown, and Chocolate, a slightly brownish dark gray. All shadows are matte finish. 4 lipcolors are included: Cashmere lip gloss, a light caramel color, Brownie lipcolor, a med. pink with some brown in it, Soft Rose a deeper pink with some brown, and Rum Raisin lipcolor, a brown with some wine in it that was my everyday - go to-YLBB color. All lipsticks are matte; the lip gloss is dewy but not shimmery. I had a lot of fun mixing and matching the lip colors - everything can be combined for some really nice lip looks. Even with all of these products, it's still very light, so this is perfect to toss into my bag for the office and for travel. I will get a lot of use from this palette! (via Bobbi Brown)

Bobbi Brown - Shimmer Brick & Lip Kit

5 people recommended this item

Description

This is a great palette that offers quite a bit! This is Bobbi’s basic black square palette, with two layers of products (Lip colors on top, and the shimmer brick underneath it) and a mirror. There are two each of the Lip Glosses and Lip Sheers. "Pink Mocha" Lip Gloss goes with "Buff" Lip Sheer. They are both beige-y nudes but with different texture and intensity. "Rum" Lip Gloss goes with "Rosy" Lip Sheer. Both areYLLB (Your lips but better) reds. All the colors coordinate, so that you can also layer them as well. The "Tawny" Shimmer Brick has a nice texture. If you blend properly the result is more of a glow than a shimmer.

Tawny itself is this unique rose/pink/peach/bronze color that would goes with many eye shadow colors. Its got every color in there! This will work with many skin tones, up to about an Iman complexion, and is especially for those of you with the warmer undertones (yellow/orange/red). I just loved how it brightened up my face and gave me a lovely sun kissed glow! It’s easy to carry around so it’s great for travel/work/purse. This palette is also perfect for those of you who want to try out some of these new Bobby Brown colors. My only wish it that it also came with applicator brushes. (via Palacinka)

Bobbi Brown 'Extra' SPF 25 Tinted Moisturizing Balm

First to recommend

Description

This super rich and creamy moisturizer is fabulous for my skin. On good skin days I don't need any additional coverage with it, either. On bad skin days, all I need is a dab of concealer and a pressed powder and I'm ready for the day. One of the nicest benefits to this balm is that it is very soothing and cooling to the touch. I loved the smell of this too -- very clean and crisp.

Even though it’s concentrated, it feels very light weight, and the finish made me feel like a glowing, sunshine goddess everyday! For those of you with more mature skin, it also works well because it won’t settle into expression lines and is virtually undetectable. This provides light/medium coverage.

Note: I found the best results by taking a little of the balm on my fingertips and rubbing together a little to warm it up before applying. If you have VERY dry skin or are in a very cold, dry climate, you will need to apply a light layer of moisturizer or primer for best results." (via Palacinka)

Bobbi Brown BATH Fragrance

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

I fell in love with this scent on the spot. I wanted a fresh, spring-like fragrance that was a subtle clean essence – but did not to smell like laundry detergent, dryer sheets or Irish Spring. Now I’ve found it!

I achieved out-of-the-shower-clean smell with my morning spritzes and the dry down was sweet but subtle. While the base sweetness reminds me of melons, apricots or peaches, it is not candy-like in the least. It worked extremely well with my skin chemistry, and for a split second I got a nice "Ivory Soap"- like layer which made me smile every day.

It's a perfect everyday scent, and the packaging is simple & appealing.

I would love to see this fragrance expand into a shower gel, scrub, lotion and larger fragrance bottle too! This is a great all-around scent.

Note: For drier skins you will have to apply this more often during the day to maintain the intensity if desired. (via Palacinka.com)

Bobbi Brown chocolate cherry nail polish

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

I love Bobbi's makeup line, but have never used her nail colors. I think when I go to the makeup counter I am so fascinated with the makeup that the nail colors are secondary. I have the Chocolate collection eye shadow, but didn't have the nail color.

This color is also great for fall. It is a beautiful rich wine color and looks amazing on my hands. (via Palacinka)

Bobbi Brown Foundation Stick

First to recommend

6 people recommended this item

Description

I did find a shade that disappeared into my skin (Golden). I have to use just a little of this, and blend really well, otherwise it's too makeup looking. It's a little time consuming to get it blended in (not very spreadable with the foundation brush). I think this huge stick will outlive me!). I need the creamy texture around my eyes as I always forget to use moisturizer. I love using this as a concealer, primarily for under the eyes and to combat dark circles. It is not drying and doesn't set into fine lines. I love how it can travel in your purse for touch up's as well. Big thumbs up! (via bobbii brown)

Bobbi Brown Glitter Lip Gloss

3 people recommended this item

Description

This is a very pretty lip gloss that is glittery, but not over the top in any way. The shade is a flattering creamy champagne peach with a touch of light brown (that looks great with the shades in the Bobbi Brown Nude Palette as well).This is meant to be a “your lips but better” shade, with a bit of kick to it. I generally wore this over one of the Bobbi Brown Nude palette colors, and also with other light brown/pink lip shades.

I loved that the gloss is not too sticky, gave a nice shine, felt light on my lips, and the glitter was not large or gritty. The glitter also did not “migrate” or flake off during the day, which I appreciated.

The staying power is excellent as well for a gloss. Since this is a sheer shade, if your lips are more pigmented, a base of light brown liner or lipstick will be needed to really see the full color, although the glitter particles do show up in any event. This will work to enhance any nude lip shade on all skin tones. (via Palacinka)

Bobbi Brown Face Touch Up Stick

First to recommend

Description

For a convenient way to touch up discoloration, blemishes and under eye circles, nothing beats Bobbi's new Face Touch Up Stick!

This concealer is in a small twist up stick which I would apply directly if I was on the go, or with the touch up brush by Bobbi Brown. The stick offers medium coverage and the texture is extremely creamy and hydrating. I used this in the Honey shade and it was a perfect match. It was easy to blend and had great lasting power. If I was able to apply power to set, I got great coverage throughout the day. On the go without powder, I certainly got staying power for 4-5 hours. There was no slipping, flaking or melting.

This is the perfect product to use for those of you that just have small spot coverage needs for general daily use. Perfect for travel and throwing into your bag because of the size. I love it and will always have one of these with me. (via Palacinka)
