Catching Up: Bobbi Brown Pretty Powerful Collection & EXTRA Repair Serum

Just in time to still talk about this…look what Bobbi Brown has for us in January!

Pretty Powerful Collection

“I really believe that when you feel good about yourself, there’s no limit to what you can do in your life—and that’s pretty powerful stuff.” - Bobbi Brown

The launch of the Pretty Powerful Palettes marks the first anniversary of Bobbi Brown’s iconic Pretty Powerful Campaign. Inspired by her favorite look—a fresh and healthy one—Bobbi’s palettes are designed to be universally flattering.

“I’ve always loved a natural look but that doesn’t have to mean nude color, and it certainly doesn’t mean washed out color. The Pretty Powerful Palettes are filled with pink tones that range from soft to warm and even a shot of bright to create a healthy look because nothing is more beautiful to me than a healthy complexion,” says Bobbi.

Offered in two shade ranges designed with all complexions in mind, each palette contains four neutral eye shadows and complementary pink shades for lips and cheeks.

EXTRA Repair Serum

“I created Extra Repair Serum for women who want moisturization and repair in one. It not only feels great the moment it goes on but also helps skin look better day after day.” - Bobbi Brown

TLC for winter-weary complexions, Bobbi’s new Extra Repair Serum is the ultimate solution for dry skin. With its luxurious milky texture, this skin nourishing serum gives an immediate feeling of comfort on contact.

Over time, it works to help improve skin’s texture and moisture barrier. Infused with anti-aging ingredients, it helps smooth the look of lines and wrinkles while giving skin a firmer, more lifted appearance.

Ingredients & Benefits

Wheat, Bran & Olive Extract Complex helps strengthen skin’s natural barrier, improving its ability to lock in moisture and prevent future damage.

Vitamin C and a powerful peptide help soften the look of lines and wrinkles while firming skin.

Clary Sage Extract encourages skin cell turnover and sweeps away dull surface cells to reveal a fresh, radiant surface.

Magnolia Bark Extract, Sucrose and Caffeine help reduce visible redness caused by irritation.

Sodium Hyaluronate, Glycerin and Meadowfoam Seed Oil infuse skin with moisture—instantly and over time.

How to Use: Apply to clean, dry skin in the morning and evening. Follow with your choice of Extra moisturizer.

How thoroughly fabulous does this look?

Introducing Illuminating Finish Powder Compact Foundation SPF 12

“It’s taken me more than five years to create this foundation. I tested it at shoots, on models, friends and my team until I got it just right. Applied wet or dry, it evens out your skin and gives it a brightness that lasts all day—in any kind of lighting. And because it’s so finely milled, it looks incredibly natural.” - Bobbi Brown

Finally, a foundation that cuts shine while creating a radiant, diffused look. Creamy and soft to the touch yet light and airy, this buildable powder formula can be applied wet or dry.

Holding Up: Bobbi Brown Natural Finish Long Lasting Foundation (review)

I'm more than a little sleepy today. On the way home last night, I wasn't paying attention and got on the wrong highway. By the time I finally realized what I'd done, I had added over an hour to my travel time. So I'm kind of droopy.

Cheesy tie-in: But even though I'm fading fast; my foundation has tons of staying power. Thanks to Bobbi Brown.

Natural Finish Long Lasting Foundation (SPF 15)

Blurb: Oil-free, all-day wear so you’ll have soft-matte, even-looking skin without having to pile on powder throughout the day, this is Bobbi’s soft-matte “sequel” to our (now discontinued) Oil-Free Finish Foundation. Sponge-like powders absorb excess oil on the surface of the skin, while emollients lock in moisture to ensure skin remains perfectly balanced. Transfer-resistant formula helps create a barrier against heat and humidity for 8 hours of wear so makeup stays in place. Perfect for oily and normal/combination skin.

I went to an awesome Bobbi Brown event in early May, and got introduced to all kinds of gorgeous products. One of them was this Foundation. I really loved the way it looked, so I took a bottle home.

I'm so glad I did - this a really special foundation! It's a natural, fresh look paired with serious staying power. It gives medium coverage (which is somewhat buildable) and dries to a weightless, velvety, semi-matte finish. When I saw how my skin looked, I was really pleased; but I wasn't sure if it would last. Well it did. It stayed put all day and even kept my oiliness at bay. There was no color change, and very little shine. I've even tried this without using powder to set, and gotten almost the same great results!

Right now, the website is offering three generously sized minis with any purchase at checkout (until midnight tonight or while supplies last). Check out some of the Online Exclusives (and get free shipping with a $65 order). Bobbi Brown is also available at bloomingdales, Nordstrom and Blue Mercury.

Shy About Shimmer?

Same World, New Eyes: Bobbi Brown Corrector and Creamy Concealer Kit (review)

Before I officially caught my cold on the weekend, I happened to be passing through bloomingdales (don't judge me, it's between the parking lot and Sephora). As luck would have it, they were hosting a "Pretty Powerful" event over at the Bobbi Brown counter. So in my tireless pursuit of good blogging; I made an appointment for a makeover, went to Sephora for an hour, and then hopped into a makeup chair.

Corrector

Blurb: For very dark circles and extra coverage, Bobbi's secret is her Correctors. Use daily or just when you need extra coverage. Designed to be layered under your yellow-based Creamy Concealer shade, Correctors come in a range of twelve Bisque and Peach shades.

Creamy Concealer Kit

Blurb: Bobbi's secret to the beauty universe. This kit includes Creamy Concealer on top & Sheer Finish Loose Powder on bottom to set concealer for long-lasting wear. For smooth, even application, start by moisturizing undereye area with eye cream. Then, apply concealer up to the lashline & into the inner corner of the eye using the Concealer Brush. Smooth & blend by gently patting with the pads of your fingers. Set with the coordinating powder.

To begin with, these events are incredibly fun. I got a consultation and fabulous makeover by one of the amazing Bobbi Brown makeup artists (Marina). Marina explained every step as she went along, and answered all of my questions. She also made lots of suggestions. And I'm glad she did. I went in there wanting to try all of the new, pretty colors and wasn't the least bit interested in the other stuff. However, she noticed my puffy, dark (pre-cold) under-eye area and said that she could really make a difference with just a couple of products. Even though I was more interested in the shadows and liners, I let her have her way.

What a difference! She first applied the corrector under my eyes and blended slightly. Then she added the creamy concealer with a brush and set the whole thing with the powder. It took about two or three minutes and the difference was astonishing. The dark circles were invisible, and the puffiness was barely noticeable. I watched another makeup artist do the same for someone else; and the results were just as dramatic.

Today I'm lacking in sleep. I've also been sniffling from all the pollen flying around. No worries, this corrector/concealer duo is working beautifully (cause I...um...brought some home). They're simple to use and make an incredible difference. If you can get to one of these events, I highly recommend you let one of the artists give you a how-to. Even if there isn't an event, you might want to visit your nearest Bobbi Brown counter and have someone help you select the corrector/concealer shades and show you how to apply them. Totally, totally worth it!

And of course, you can check out all the other delightful, irresistible items right this minute on the website. You can find a store/event locator and even check out some of the cool videos. And right now there's free shipping with any order (enter code: lipshine). To experience Bobbi Brown "live," visit places like bloomingdales, Nordstrom and Blue Mercury.

Check out the looks created by Wendy Rowe for Fashion Week!

J. Mendel Fall 2010

“The J. Mendel woman for fall is strong and chic, and has an effortless and modern sex appeal…” -Wendy Rowe for Bobbi Brown Cosmetics

Ultra chic and sophisticated, the makeup for J.Mendel's Fall 2010 Collection is fresh and youthful. Skin is clean and glowing, but cheekbones are pronounced and structured. Eyes are precisely defined with a thin line on outer corners, mixing drama with innocence. A barely there lip completes the look.

Eyes: Flesh Eye Shadow, Woodrose Eye Shadow, Slate Eye Shadow, Black Kohl Eye Pencil (Black Velvet, Fall ’10), No Smudge Mascara

Cheeks: Tawny Blush

Lips: Crystal Lip Gloss

Brows: Natural Brow Shaping Gel

Brian Reyes Fall 2010

"The Brian Reyes girl for fall is modern and sophisticated from head to toe, but she has an edge, which her makeup reflects. She's a very cool girl who is comfortable in her own skin." -Wendy Rowe for Bobbi Brown Cosmetics

Makeup for the Brian Reyes Fall 2010 collection captures the strength and confidence of the Brian Reyes woman herself. A fresh face showcases a dramatic eye. Top lids are glossed with aubergine and the lower lashline is lined with mint green shadow. Skin is clean and matte, and lips are a youthful pink, allowing the eyes to electrify with modern sophistication.

Skin: Hydrating Face Cream, Hydrating Eye Cream, Foundation PStick, Creamy Concealer, Corrector

Eyes: Snow Shimmer Wash Eye Shadow, Eggplant Shimmer Wash Eye Shadow, Long-Wear Cream Eye Shadow in Aqua and Black Plum Kohl Eye Pencil (Black Velvet, Fall ’10) as liner, No Smudge Mascara on lashes

Tibi Fall 2010

"The Tibi woman for Fall 2010 is always pretty, but doesn't know it, and didn't try to be. She's a youthful woman with round, soft features, but dramatic eyes. She is disheveled, yet elegant all at the same time..." -Wendy Rowe for Bobbi Brown Cosmetics

Unaware of the beauty she possesses, the Tibi woman always exudes disheveled elegance in the most unintentional, yet glamorous way. A fresh, dewy face provides the perfect canvas for showcasing a 60s-inspired “cat eye” with winged liner and dramatically defined lashes. A bit of pink blush on the cheek and a nude lip polish off this soft, youthful look that marries pretty with powerful.

Skin: Hydrating Face Cream, Hydrating Eye Cream, Skin Foundation, Tinted Eye Brightener

Eyes: Heather Long-Wear Cream Shadow and Slate Long-Wear Cream Shadow on lower-lid, Blonde Eye Shadow in crease, Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner in Black Ink, Perfectly Defined Mascara
