Did anyone order that Bobbi Brown TSV on QVC? I ordered it and I can't wait to get it!

I have never really used much Bobbi Brown before so I am excited to try it out.

I ordered the TSV too and I ordered a couple of the eyeliners too - Chocolate Shimmer and Sapphire Shimmer.
The TSV looks like a great value. I am excited to try it!

I watched the last hour of the show last night. They ran out of the heather eyeshadow before I even picked up the phone

Tish - is this one of the new Illuminating Bronzing Powders?

I caved and ordered Bali Brown from QVC and now I am wondering how close it is to Refined Golden?

From what I remember it is slighter darker and the texture is better. I think it beats Refined Golden. Just a personal opinion here.

I think Tish is referring to the blush/bronzer duo. I believe that has been discontinued in the US, but QVC still carries it in a kit that even comes with a little blender brush.

I really want it but I think I will probably get two of the illuminating bronzers first

oooh - - those look nice too. Those duos are perfect for summer. Thank you for the link - - I could do some damage on QVC!

Twinkle - - I suspect I will like the Bobbi bronzer more as well - and I have my eye on the one in Antigua too!

I am looking forward to trying the gel eyeliners - - I recently tried MUFE Aqua Creamliner and it smudged a bit by the end of the day (this was over UDPP - but I do have super oily eyelids), so I am hoping the Bobbi liners do the trick. Granted, MAC Fluidline and UD 24/7 Pencils work just fine for me - - but I love trying new things.

Antigua is so pretty. It's like NARS' Casino but less brown, brighter, and with more gold. And I picked up Bali Brown today, rounding out my BB Bronzer collection at 6. Whew I need to stop for real. But Bali Brown is definitely a bit darker than Refined Golden. It has a better texture and more sparkle too, but it's still sheer and wearable.

Thank you for the review!

I received Bali Brown yesterday - - and I love it!! This is probably the best, most natural bronzer I have.

I was worried that it would be too close to Refined Golden, but Bali Brown is *way* prettier. Refined Golden can look a little dirty on me if I don't use a light hand (NW20), but there is just a hint of orange/pink in the Bali Brown which makes it look so much more natural on me. Bali Brown is more sheer than Refined Golden, which I like, but for darker skin tones, it would probably be too sheer. The shimmer is beautiful, subtle and perfect for summer. Also, there is more simmer in Bali Brown than Refined Golden. I am wondering how close Bali Brown is to the new Naked Honey Powder (is it Golden something?)
It's too bad that these are kind of expensive - - I think they're $33, but I think I may pick up one more - probably Antigua.
I am still waiting for my other Bobbi Brown things to arrive from QVC...but will review when they come!

Hi, I haven't posted in a while, so I apologize if this is in the wrong place (please let me know if this should go on another section of specktra), but here are some pictures of the new illuminating bronzers with some comparisons to other brands. Also a picture of the new Bronzer Brush versus her old one (the old one is in the mini size).

Finally, a few swatch pictures of the new pink bronzers versus Nars Orgasm, Nars Super Orgasm, and LM Pink Shimmer Block.

Does anyone have either of these two e/s? And are they unique or do they have a MAC dupe? They look so pretty online but not sure how they are in real life. Thanks

Metallic E/S "After Hours" & Metallic E/S "Bash"

A close MAC dupe for Bobbi Brown After Hours is their Smut Eyeshadow. Not sure about Bash though!

i just spent a coupl eof hours trying to see what I like on the bobbi brown website. After looking at swatches (from various forums) I think I dont want to buy anything.

I had heard great things about shimmerbricks but they just look too shimmery to me. Brushes are way over-priced :/

Even after the 25% discount, i dont know..


sorry bobbi brown... i tried :p
