Bobbi Brown Discussion & Must-haves

[Sabrunka]

Hi guys! I just saw the new chrome collection and wow, thats all I can say. Would anyone here possibly do a cp for me?! This line is no where in Canada where I can get to easily, and no sites online will ship the products to Canada!! I don't know why, saks, nm, nordies AND bb's website all wont allow shipping to canada or in specific, shipping the palette to me!! ITS SO LAME lol.

My absolute favorite is the Pink Quartz Shimmerbrick LE. I really wish she'd make that a permanent one. I also recommend the Pink and Nude Shimmerbricks, and e/s in Naked, Bronzed Pink, Nude Beach, Pewter, Rock, and Stone. The "Must have" set is also a good value, was Nordstrom Exclusive but is now on BB Website ($10 more than Nordstrom's price was though).

When the hell are the mini Shimmerbricks being released!!!!!!!!!

I love the gel liners. I use Graphite, and it's a really nice alternative to black (black can be a little harsh on my pale skin). I also really like her Shimmer Bricks. I have Beige and the LE Copper Diamond (found that at my CCO). I have used the Beige colors as shadows as well. Right now I'm waiting on the Chrome shadows and the Chrome palette. Can't wait! Bobbi Brown's products are great quality!

FYI: Bobbi Brown F+F sale is running Nov. 30-Dec. 2. The discount is 20% and is automatically applied at checkout.

I saw the three new mini shimmerbricks yesterday! They are gorgeous! The packaging is heavy but the metal casing is a fingerprint magnet. They are so tiny but so expensive! They are very pigmented! I really love Nectar and Plum but I don't know if I am justified to spent that much money on them. What do you ladies think?

I recently tried the Bobbi Brown Corrector and I absolutely loved it for my dark underyeye circles. The texture is creamy bliss!!

The only drawback, however, is the price. With the concealer, for instance, you get more bang for your buck if you just go with MAC. A 1.7 gram jar of Bobbi Brown Concealer retails for $22.00 versus a MAC Studio Finish Concealer 7 gram jar which sells for $16.50.

Do you guys feels as if the product is worth the price?????

Yeah, Bobbi obviously missed the "We're In A Recession" memo.

Over here kicking myself...I didn't pick up that New Chrome Metallic Lip Color and I think I'm sick to my tummy.

I called everywhere and it's all gone. So sad.

I went to the counter the other day and the SA applied a peach corrector on my NC25.. how come some people are using light peach on their nc25 skin tones instead? did she give me the wrong shade? or are my dark circles too dark that i needed a more intense peach colour to cover it up?

 

[sunkiss21]

Has anyone laid eyes on the Cabana Corals collection yet??? I see they have it online at Nordstrom. I really want to see some swatches of the lip products. As I do not have a counter where I live I will have to order from online, but I would like to see some swatches first. Hopefully some will pop up soon.

 

[mac_aiken]

I am also hoping someone has seen and hopefully swatched the Cabana Corals collection. I would love to see swatches of the shimmerbricks. They look amazing.

I love the gel liner! It goes on so smooth and easy and lasts all day.

I apply it with the BB short handled Ultra Fine Eye Liner brush (or whatever it's called), and it's SO EASY to apply!

Yes, I do. I use the corrector and concealer (convert from MAC) and I love the way the look and you don't need a lot so it will last a long time.

It depends on you how dark your circles are. Did you suggest that she try the light peach also? I thought they gave me a too dark corrector (bisque-I don't really have dark circles, NC45 or BB 6.5) but it works perfectly. If you are concerned about it being too peach, go back and have them try both.

Re: Bobbi Brown Must-haves & recs??

Bobbi brown gel liner is the best!!! will stay put all day on your lids! I love the colour range they have too. I just got a new one in 'forest shimmer ink' and it's this lovely olive-y brown colour with golden flecks! i highly recommend it. check out my blog below for a swatch of it if interested.

Re: Ladies What Bobbi Brown Foundation shade do you use?

I'm asian and is usually NC25-30. I just bought Bobbi brown's skin foundation in warm sand 2.5 and love how it looks on my skin.

I think the new Bobbi Brown collection is a must have. It's the coral collection and I saw it in Nordstroms yesterday. I walked away with 2 lipsticks and a shimmerbrick. These are my first Bobbi Brown products ever. I never bothered with her b/c her stuff seemed so basic, but she hit it out the park with this one.

I love the look of the new Coral collection! Does anyone know how Cabo coral Pot Rouge compares to Calypso Coral? I'm looking for a softer shade of cream blush than Calypso, but I can't find any swatches yet online... TIA!

 

[Shadowy Lady]

I def want Nectar shimmerbrick! It looks hot!

 

[scarlettgloss]

Corals are my absolute favourite so I love all of this collection. Does anyone know if its limited or permanent? I'm not back in the US until September and I'm TRYING to stay on a ban until then.
