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.

@Ispend2much6, that's good to know! I have a rosy nudes 5-pan and quite like it. Lately, I've been using last holiday's Jadestone eyedshadow palette with those beautiful greens.

Holiday has launched on Bobbi Brown direct. Until Oct 9, there's a holiday game (like plinko) where you can win prizes, including 25% off. And, the BB GILT gift certificate is still valid for a few more hours.

Oh man @TraceyEB thank you for the Gilt reminder!! 🤗 I  have one! 🤦🏻‍♀️ I always enjoy their holiday games too! 

[TraceyEB]

@Sunnysmom, go quickly so it doesn't expire! I used mine to purchase one of the Luxe Eye Duos and the Luxe Lipstick in Afternoon Tea.

[Sunnysmom]

Missed it. Can you believe @TraceyEB ! 😭 Oh well. I try to put those on my calendar and I had too busy of a week somehow!! Lol I still need one of the duos as well. The blush and highlighter looks so pretty too but I do not need that clearly and will NOT. 😆

[TraceyEB]

@Sunnysmom, that's too bad about the Gilt voucher. I was holding out to see if holiday might launch as it did on the last day of the voucher last year. There's still a sweet 25% off prize if you play the game they've posted (you can reject the gift that comes up and play again until 25% comes up). I don't think there's anything unique about the cheek palette and, as you said, you don't need it. I'm passing but might pick up an eyeshadow palette later on once I see the shades/review.

[Sunnysmom]

Yes thanks @TraceyEB I will do that if I decide I neeeed it. Lol. The eye palettes look great too but I just have so many and truly need to use them more! The shades can not be that different! Always seems to be the random one that gets me so I go well may as well get the whole palette! 🥹🤣 Really trying not to as this year has so many beautiful collections (pricey!) so it’s a good lesson to try and watch it not to mention holiday gifties for others! 💞

The Holiday Luxe Cheek and Highlighting Palettes in Rose Glow (lighter shades) and Golden Glow (deeper shades) are available at Neiman Marcus and Saks The highlighters - Afternoon Glow and Bronze Glow are repromotes.

Note: Afternoon Glow and Deep Caramel (bronzer) were in this summer's Sculpted Glow Face Palettes that contained a blush, highlighter, and bronzer.

[TraceyEB]

The Luxe Holiday collection has launched at Saks.  The Luxe Eye Shadow Duos in Last Dance (brown/gold) and Midnight Toast (pink/mauve) contain a Luxe Rich Lustre shade (left) and a Luxe Rich Matte shade (right). The Rich Lustre shades are "created with chromatic pigments for high impact sparkle" and it's recommended to apply with the ring finger.  Luxe Lipsticks are repromotes of Parisian Red (lovely!) and Afternoon Tea (on my 'to buy' list).

Note: Saks is having a Friend's and Family sale starting Friday, Sept 22; not sure if it includes cosmetics.

@TraceyEB ,

I think that I need this Midnight Toast Eyeshadow Duo.  Thanks for posting these.

[TraceyEB]

@tsavorite, they look lovely! I just ordered Last Dance Luxe Eyeshadow Duo and Afternoon Tea lipstick. Please post a swatch if you buy Midnight Toast.

[itsfi]

@TraceyEB I really have no business shopping but I’m so intrigued by the shades you purchased. I will live vicariously through you (and @tsavorite perhaps?) well, I will until y’all enable me with your looks photos or swatches. Sigh, I’m weak. 😔 

[TraceyEB]

@itsfi, heh, heh. Enabling, I mean swatches, coming soon!

[itsfi]

@TraceyEB,

Me: ooooh, can't wait! 😍

My wallet: yes, we can. We can wait. We should wait. We need to wait. 💸💸💸

[tsavorite]

@TraceyEB ,

Last Dance is gorgeous, too!  Oooh, Afternoon Tea, also!

[itsfi]

Those eyeshadow duos are becoming more challenging to resist @TraceyEB. Afternoon Tea looks like a lovely lipstick - a great color for the cooler months. 😍

[TraceyEB]

@itsfi, I'm going to pick up one of the eyeshadow duos to try. I really like the idea of wearing Afternoon Tea in the Fall months. I have Parisian Red; it's a beautiful bright everyday kind of red that can also compliment a bolder look.

@itsfi speaking of eye duos, I miss the ones Too Faced used to do so many years ago.  HG used to have nice ones, too.

[Sunnysmom]

Love those duos @TraceyEB ! It’s all so pretty. BB does such a lovely holiday collection! 😍

[TraceyEB]

@Sunnysmom, I can do soft eyes and bold lips well! Will be getting the brown/gold duo to see test the formula. I love BB Holiday collections. With the collection being available now, I wonder what they will sell us to go under the Christmas tree...summer collection?  😂

[itsfi]

If one of you pick up the duo, please do share your thoughts. Not that I need more eyeshadow … @TraceyEB @Sunnysmom
