How would you compare them to pot rouges?
I love pale pink in powder and pot rouge format, I want to get the sheer pink cheek tint but I will only if the staying power is worth it.

I overhead a Bobbi Brown SA saying that they are releasing new bronzers that have shimmer. She said they just got them in and that they should be on the display next week. Ohhh weee!

BTW, I think everyone has a Laguna bronzer now!


I want Bali Brown and the two darker ones that aren't pictured. For $50 I can do without the lighter ones that are really going to be nothing but highlighters on me anyway. But I bet Maui is really pretty, probably like the Becca powders. Sigh, I can't wait.

Uggghhh and that picture really makes me want the GA #6 bronzer all over again. Nordstrom was out when I went and I have been trying the let the lemming go. Damn!

Has anyone tried the gel eyeliner on the waterline? And as an eyeliner, how does it compare to MAC's blacktrack fluidline? I'm really curious to know, because I'm wondering whether I should buy from MAC again or try the BB one.

I haven't tried the BB gel eyeliners, but a lot of people who've tried both prefer the BB including personal friends of mine. From what I've seen, it's one of their most raved about items.

Would Shimmer Bricks in Pink, Pink Quartz, and Beige make good highlighters for NC 20 skin? Or would they be too dark?

For reference.....
Porcelain Pink MSF is too dark for me to use as a highlighter
The two lightest shades in Blonde MSF, the two lightest shades in Redhead MSF, and the Melange side of Moon River are the perfect highlighting shades for me (I'd love to use just those 3 all the time, but I hate using only one side of products since it makes them lopsided after a while, so I'm looking for replacements)

Has anyone tried BB's protective face lotion? Would you recommend it? Thanks

Beige would probably make a good highlighter. Pink Quartz has some darker strips and Pink has more color than Beige, so maybe those would be good on the cheeks over blush.

I have now bought BB gel liner and indeed, it is better than MAC's fluidline. It stays put longer, especially in the inner corner of the eye, where I used to have some "feathering" with the fluidline.

I'm so glad I bought this after all!

Hey, I used it on the waterline and it stung me a bit and I didn't therefore put more on..

I'd say the best pencil to use on the waterline would be the ones from UD.

everytime iv stopped at bobbi brown, they drag u to the seat and wipe away everything u have, and slap on what feels like chip pan oil then a thick layer of greasy foundation and bright neon purple cheeks. i actually have to say il go into daylight have a look and run away and not come back!iv never had the chance to look at anything proper!

I used it on the waterline and it was all okay for me--didn't sting at all. Very good staying power!!

I have to agree with the staying power, mine stayed great on the waterline and on the eyelid and this was without UDPP. I can't wait to see how bright it is with UDPP. Removing it is also very very easy

The new Illuminating Bronzers are up on the website!!!!! And they are $33 not, $50 like the MUA member posted, what a relief. I think I want Barbados for sure, and possibly Bahama and Bali Brown.

For people who use BB gel liner on your waterline, do you need to set it with a black eyeshadow? So far, I can't find anything that'll stay put on my waterline.

Bobbi Brown has several shows coming up on QVC starting at Midnight tonight! Including her first ever Today Special Value
smiles.gif


really excited to see her upcoming shows. I wonder if they will present her new illuminating bronzers?

on a side not - the new sheer stick blushes look great, but a tad too expensive for the size you get
