Bobbi Brown Thread

[meganlisa]

The Bobbi Brown thread.  Bobbi Brown was the first brand that got me excited about makeup.  So I'll always have a soft spot for BB.  And now Sephora has the amazing 25 year year palette.

Note, the holiday lip shade is sold out on Nordstrom.  I'm going to be watching for it on Sephora's site.

BB Luxe Gems Eyeshadow Palette is available at Nordstrom online ($75 US). Below are the shades, formulas and swatches. There are four formulas: Rich Sparkle, Rich Metal, Rich Matte, and Multichrome, and two shade repromotes in Volcanic and Incandescent. Incandescent was previously released as a single in the Camo collection; it has a pink/gold shift that is gorgeous. The Rich Matte formula is new to me.

This isn't Bobbi Brown, but I know not everyone goes to the Deals thread so I thought I'd let you know that SpaceNK is having one heck of a sale right now; it just started this a.m.  Tons of Surratt; the single eye shadows are only $13.  Lip products, two blushes, eye liners.

A fair amount of  Chantecaille also.  Usually these sales are heavy in the skin care, but this one has a lot of makeup.

Good morning everyone!  And, it sure is. 🙂  Gilt City has $30 off of $80 and $125 purchases plus a free gift!  Vouchers are valid Sept. 9 through October 8 (maybe some of the holiday items will be available by then.)

[TraceyEB]

@Ispend2much6, thanks for the post! I picked up the $30 off $80. Hope there's tempting products to spend our voucher on!

[Ispend2much6]

@TraceyEB   Is there any doubt?  By October 8 there should be anyway.  No matter how much BB stuff I have, I always want more.

[TraceyEB]

@Ispend2much6, me, too, and I all but raided my local BB counter before the dept store it was in closed. Many treats coming this Fall and for the holidays.

And the luxe shine intense lipstick is on the site (not just preorder).  

I was able to get both vouchers (so if someone wants one, let me know and when I get the code I will share).

[Ispend2much6]

@meganlisa   Yay!!!  I do want to try those; I have three shades in mind, but it may be smart to start with one in case I don't like the formula.

[TraceyEB]

@Ispend2much6, that's exactly what I thought after I bought three!! 🙂🙃 Mine arrive on Friday.

@Ispend2much6 @meganlisa I just received my order for 2 of the new lips. They are nice and colors good. Remind me of a lighter formula Luxe lipstick. Not sure of staying power yet but very comfy. I got Red Stiletto and the dark one Night Moves is it? Red is cool toned and dark is deep purplish burgundy. Here is quick swatch. :).

@Sunnysmom   Thanks for the swatches and reviews!  That makes it easier...er, harder...

[Sunnysmom]

Ha @Ispend2much6 I know right?! Will be fun to hear what you get and think of course! 💞

[TraceyEB]

@Sunnysmom, the swatches are gorgeous!! Oh my the purple Night Spell is stunning! I have 3 coming on Friday. Even more excited after seeing your swatches! 💋

[Sunnysmom]

Duh @TraceyEB Night spell that’s it! Lol. I get all the names mixed up after awhile! 🤣I’m excited for yours! What ones you try?! I think you will like em! 

[TraceyEB]

@Sunnysmom, I have Desert Sun, Passion Flower, and Claret coming, with Bold Honey and Night Spell waiting in the wings.

[Sunnysmom]

Ooh good @TraceyEB hope you’ll show us!

Spotted on Selfridges website: BB Intensive Skin Serum Foundation now with a pump (vs. a dropper) to dispense foundation. This is my preferred winter foundation and I am elated about this design change.

Holiday 2019 swatches - Love in the Afternoon (top) and Smoke and Metals (bottom) eyeshadow palettes. Early November release.

[Sunnysmom]

Ooh @TraceyEB I love the Smoke and Mirrors one. Shall be mine I hope. Very wearable yes @meganlisa and ditto on the hi! 🥰

[meganlisa]

I can't resist some of the brand's offerings because they are so wearable, flattering and perfect.  The sheer lipsticks are always in my bag.

[meganlisa]

I love this palette.  Looks like exactly what the brand does well - wearable everyday looks.
