Yes - they do not crease on me - ever. I don't have oily skin but my eyelids have to have gel eyeliner and long-wear eye shadow as a base or my shadow creases. It works for me. BB has some great shades that I wear alone and don't always wear shadow. HTH

I got my BB package a couple of days ago and I am most pleased with the Platinum Pink SB. It is subtle and would look great over really pink blushes like Tippy or Desirous.

The amt of blush they applied on those ladies?? You could see it from outer space

I think she just wanted everyone to know that she is okay with using color on the face now

Are there any good highligher shades among BB's cream e/s? Looking for something to pair with Heather cream e/s on the lids....
 
Can anyone tell me if the stick foundation photographs nicely? I'm considering coughing up for the pro palette but since it'd hopefully get used on brides I need something that photographs well.

I wouldn't order the stick foundation in the palette form. The palette for is $22 for 2.5g and the stick is $40 for 9g. You get nearly 3 times as much for less money per gram is you get the stick.

I think she was referring to this.

I finally bought my first Bobbi Brown products! The Corrector in Peach, and Creamy Concealer in Warm Beige.

I bought them 2 weeks ago. So far i'm very impressed with how well they work and the quality/packaging. I'm a sucker for packaging and I love the simple, but sturdy, glossy back compacts. The actual products are amazing though - so creamy and so pigmented!

I agree with you on Bobbi Brown products. I love and use her concealers as well as many of her matte ES, blushes and lippies

I am going to try some of the gel blushers soon!

I used a Bobbi Brown eyeshadow brush back when I was a total noob to makeup application (last May) and was very impressed with it, since then however I have bought my own palette and the brush just doesn't seem as good, I don't know if it's because I'm improving or because the brush I have is a mini version..the brush just seems unnecessarily boofy and fluffy but it does pick up a lot of colour.

Her longwear eyeshadows stay on me for ages, I wore heather shimmer or something similar the other day with UDPP (was testing out looks at home) and it stayed on all day and no creasing.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the gel eyeliner, application is sooooo easy with it and you hardly use any, the only problem I've had is the fact that the brown one doesn't show up on my Indian skin unless I wear eyeshadow under it (I can wear the black one alone). It stays on all day without any UDPP on underneath it and I will deffo be buying it again.

I have used the Shimmerbricks as highlighters in the past and they are great as is the corrector.

I love it! I'm and NC45 in MAC and 6.5 Warm Almond in Bobbi Brown. I ordered the Coral Gel Blush (too sheer going back) the Seer Pink Gloss (did nothing for me going back) the Blackberry Gel Blush (LOVE so subtle and glowy and dewy) and the Cabana sheer gloss (So juicy and sexy it brings out my complexion perfectly!) So all in all if you try out and find just the right colors I think you will love it!

I reeeeeeally wanna try her touch up stick. Looks so promising. I already use her Skin foundation in Golden 6 and that is my holy grail foundation. Loves it so much. I also really like her Oil-Free even Finish foundation.

I purchased the Sheer Pink and Sheer Lilac cheek tint. They are both very pretty. The Sheer Pink is more pigmented than Sheer Lilac but both will be used heavily this summer. I want to get the Blackberry one as well...they didn't have that one in stock at the counter I went to. Next time.
