Gift Pick - Makeup Traveling with Bobbi Brown

Holiday-2011-Product-PickI bet if I showed this BOBBI BROWN Party To Go from her Holiday 2011 Collection to 10 females, all 10 would declare, “I WANT THAT!” 50 out of 50? Probably the same reaction and why wouldn’t they instantly want it? I don’t think Bobbi has put out something so compact in the line before and it’s just delightful!

It's Bobbi's Party. Are You Attending?

Bobbi-Brown-Bobbi's-Party-eau-de-parfumBOBBI BROWN is having a party and you’re invited! She just put out Bobbi’s Party Eau de Parfum and they claim this is for the holiday season, but I’m thinking it will surely fit into more ops like days, eves and more. If you like your scents to help you make a big entrance, this may be one you need to get a whiff of. Inspired by(it) the holidays but not smelling like(it) them, Ms. Brown says she was really inspired by old Hollywood glamour (seems like every Creator says this these days) and I think she nailed it in a very modern way. This floral has notes of violet leaf, rose petal, sandalwood and is very light and airy yet heady. $60/1.7oz @ bobbibrown.com.

Fall Product Standouts – Eyes

Falll-2011-Beauty-Pick-logo
ESTEE LAUDER Pure Color EyeShadow Duo in Waves ($30 @ esteelauder.com) – I’m still all over strong colors on the eyes and teal always looks great next to brown eyes.

MAYBELLINE NEW YORK Eye Studio Color Explosion in Pink Punch ($10.99 @ drugstores nationwide) – I’ve used all of these colors over the past couple of weeks and even all at one time. The price makes this one worth it.

CLARINS Instant Liner in Black ($26 @ clarins.com) – a super flexible tip makes helps this liquid liner hug the curve of the eye for a great application.

SEPHORA Eye Bling ($6 @ sephora.com) – really make eyes stand out with these cute crystals with adhesive on them.

BOBBI BROWN Rich Color Eye Shadow in Pink Silk ($24 @ bobbibrown.com) from the Marrakesh Chic Collection – a great neutral with just a touch of shimmer makes this a great everyday shade for many skin tones.

DIOR DiorShow Liner Waterproof in Plum ($29 @ sephora.com) – liners should all be made this great! It’s really smooth, non-tugging and stays put after setting.

Fall Standouts - Lips

Falll-2011-Beauty-Pick-logo
Fall-2011-Product-Picks-Lips LIP SAVVY Star Studded Shine Gloss
($18 @ belipsavvy.com) – the way this think gloss catches the light is insane. The OMG color is a bright sparkling raspberry and has a hint of bubblegum smell to it.

MAKE UP FOR EVER Lip Line Perfector ($18 @ sephora.com) – there’s really no way to stop lines from appearing around our mouth and color on the lips can bleed, so thankfully they came up with an invisible liner to keep color in its place.

BOBBI BROWN Rich Lip Color SPF 12 in Desert Rose ($23 @ bobbibrown.com) from the Marrakesh Chic Collection – such a great anytime rose color. It reminds me of the first shade of lipstick I ever used.

SKINN DIMITRI JAMES Glosstick Ultra Shine Lip Color in Tender ($12.50 @ skinn.com) – we all want the look of a gloss with the staying power of a lipstick. This one in Tender is YLBB, really better.

Want Glossy? Bobbi Brown Gives Us Glossy!

Bobbi-Brown-High-Shimmer-Lip-Gloss-2 I recently read somewhere how Katy Perry does not "do" lip gloss and never wears it. I never even thought of something like that! As far as I knew, every female alternates between wearing a gloss, or a balm, or lipstick etc. Never heard of someone never wearing gloss, have you? Anyway, some glosses to feel a tad suffocating to me, which I have addressed here before but alas, we suffer for beauty. Those high shine lips are just too worth it to sit out! My latest one is BOBBI BROWN’s new High Shimmer Lip Gloss. If you want thee shinest, glossiest lips on the planet, this one may be your answer. It’s made with fine pearls and while this Pink Tulle didn’t give my lips much color, it amp’d up the shimmer and shiney factor to the max and the minty smell is a nice touch. $23 @ bobbibrown.com

Bobbi Brown Gets Pretty Powerful

Bobbi-Brown-Pretty-Powerful-PalettesI think at this point we’ve all owned makeup palettes where most of the colors just aren’t wearable. Personally I’ve accepted it as part of life! Thankfully BOBBI BROWN has the knack for putting together good ones where all the colors inside are usable. The latest two she has put out contain a full face in each one.

Pretty Face Palette – designed for light to medium complexions, this one has four neutral eye shadows that can be worn for day or eve looks by just adding the Chocolate Caviar Eye Shadow in the crease. This one also contains a new color of blush, Pretty Pink Blush, which is a warm baby pink. And top off lips with any of the three pinks. My picks is the Sandwash Pink Lip Color.

Powerful Face Palette – this palette seems little more … less neutral, well at least a little bit. They consider this one ideal for medium and deep complexions. I mean the shadows are on the darker nude side and three lippies also on the darker side. But what stand out for me in this one is the Plum Blush. Really flattering! $60 each @ bobbibrowncosmetics.com.

Step Into Bobbi Brown's Fall Collection

If you need a little help getting into the fall season when it comes to makeup, then this BOBBI BROWN collection is for you. I mean, have you seen the new Eye Shadows from her new Black Velvet Collection? She’s showcasing three different finishes – Metallic, Sparkle and Matte, with the later two really tickling my eyelids right now. 

Bobbi-Brown-Black-Velvet-Collection-eye-shadows
Sparkle Eye Shadow
in Black Velvet ($24) – this one is described as a blackened purple with light purple fine glitter. This one has so much sparkle that it has a clear protective top that closes over it before the top of the compact! And there wasn’t much fall-out from the glitter under my eye and down my cheek. Big recommendation.

On the other side of the eye spectrum is the Eye Shadow ($20), which with these two colors Black Charcoal and Black Chocolate, are super matte and me super like both. Check them out @ bobbibrown.com.

Coral Talk With Bobbi Brown

Bobbi-Brown-Cabana-Coral-Collection

I think Corals are going to be the big color for spring and the Cabana Coral Collection from BOBBI BROWN is right on the money. Take a break from red lips and lop on their Shimmer Lip Gloss in Coral Sand ($20) instead or add a little light coloring like you've been in the sun for a moment with the new Nectar Shimmer Brick ($38). In addition to those one, here are the picks: Metallic Lip Color in Coral Reef ($22), and Lip Color in Cabo Coral ($22). Available @ bobbibrown.com.

Bobbi Puts Out a Purse Staple

Bobbi-Brown-Tinted-Eye-Brightener

There are very few concealer/brighteners that really do the trick. I can think of two that I’ve tried and both have quite a following. One I think I’m going to add to that list is BOBBI BROWN’s Tinted Eye Brightener in a new portable pen ($38 @ bobbibrown.com). For some reason this new pen form has me liking it better than before! Is that possible? With this one, you can say buh-bye to under-eye circles and I also found this works nicely as a eyelid primer. Available in 8 shades.
