Bobbi Brown Discussion & Must-haves

I was really into Bobbi Brown for a few months before I started getting more into MAC. I love how her philosophy is all about looking natural. For that reason, a lot of her products are very buildable. One of my favorite blushes is Bobbi Brown's Pale Pink. One swipe of a blush brush picks up just enough to give you a light flush, but you can build up to a very intense pink flush if you really want to. Some people may be put off by this because obviously it requires a bit of time and effort, but I like it. If you haven't applied enough, you can always apply more, but once you've applied too much, it can be hard to fix it and you may end up having to wash your face and start all over again. My mother swears by Bobbi Brown's Correctors. They come in a variety of shades depending on what you're trying to neutralize, whether its pinkish-blue undereye darkness, purple-brown undereye darkness, etc. HTH

^^ If that is true...That is crazy to spend $70 IMO for that!! WTF but if they are smaller than a dime...you are probably right ...Will Never buy that! Unless it one day gets to the CCO

I saw the youtube video about the palette and after seeing it I can say that I am passing. She said that she could barely fit an eye shadow brush in the pan it was so tiny. Like Tish said I hope to find this at the CCO. I will save the $70 for something else.

^^ that was my thought exactly (about not being able to fit a brush into them!). I knew they'd be small, but gahhhhh they were miniscule!

If those were colors I'd use a lot I think I'd buy it to keep in my purse or take away cause if folds up so compactly. When you think you can only get 2 MAC palettes for that price(6-12 colors depending on the palette) its really not a bad deal for 35 colors

True but from the sounds of it 1 Mac shadow makes up about 6 of those

I saw it in person today.. it really is more like 10 of those. It's TINY. The size of the entire palette is smaller than a CD case.

How have I missed this BB sticky??? It's my favourite high-end cosmetics line!

Has anyone tried the new Skin Foundation? I've fallen out of love with BB foundations as they're quite red-based on me and make me look like I'm too hot or over-bronzed. But these look really nice and light.

That pallette is nine kinds of crap. 70 bucks, really??? I would have rathered she did cool, warm and rainbow palettes with bigger shadows if she was gonna charge that much.

Looks like a cheap imitation palette.
