Bobbi Brown Discussion & Must-haves

[MisaMayah]

Hiya..i'm posting a few threads today peeps!!

I've only got a pink lipglass from them and the bronze shimmer gel liner. I really want to try out their cosmetic line but a bit lost at the mo.

Is there anything you use that is an absolute must?! Any recs for me personally (piccie on my profile).......Thanks again Specktrettes!!

It's not makeup as such but I love the lip balm.

I think for a lot of people it's a bit hit and miss as it is really hard. I must admit that when I first got it I was disappointed, but now I wouldn't be without it. Super moisturising, lasts for ages and gives a lovely plump rosy finish

Their Shimmerbricks are popular, similar to the MAC MSFs and can also be used as e/s. I bought a BB blush in Clementine a while ago and have been using it a lot, it's a very nice coral shade. Another great blush from them is Apricot.

I'd have to say the shimmerbricks...especially rose and apricot shimmerbricks.

the shimmers are more finely milled than MAC MSFs.... I highly recommend these

Second that! I love the Shimmer Bricks, I have the Beige one: it's beautiful use as e/s and above blush, to give an instant glowy effect.
I highly recommend the Cream blush sticks too (if you like the creamy texture), the packaging is so useful and the colours are really naturals, it gives you a very healthy flush

I had 3 of them once, and I think I'll buy it one or two other again

Her foundation is amazing.

Rose shimmerbrick. I don't own it yet but will be a very happy proud owner soon (I hope!!)

Shimmerbricks and more shimmerbricks. I actually thing they are better than MSFs. I have apricot and gold. I don't know what I would do without my Gold Shimmerbrick. I should get a backup because they are LE. Her brushes are kinda nice too but loooooong handle. There are short handles available but don't know how short. MAC's SE brush short? Anyone know?

Shimmerbrick! I only have 1 now, that's Rose and boy do I love it!
I'm starting to wonder whether I should save my Flashtronic MSF money and buy Shimmerbricks instead... no chunky glitter and the sheen it gives is like SATIN!

I want Apricot!

Re: Bobbi Brown Must-haves & recs??

Good Ol' Bobbi Brown. Honestly the entire line is great, I cant use her face products because they are too yellow for me and have a tendency to make me look ashy, but, if you have true yellow undertones, go for it because the formulas are awesome.

Her lip glosses are great (but expensive and small...) as are the blushes, eyeshadows, and of course the Shimmerbricks.

Re: Bobbi Brown Must-haves & recs??

Another vote for the Shimmerbricks!!

Re: Bobbi Brown Must-haves & recs??

i am not too crazy about bb foundation and ended up returning it because I did not think it did anything special considering the price it was...but I do like the cranberry and plum blush. Very pretty colors.
