The Jones Road Thread

[Sunnysmom]

A thread dedicated to all things Jones Road! A clean multi-purpose line of beauty/skincare created by Bobbi Brown (the originator of BB tho she is no longer associated with the Bobbi Brown line). Would love to see it to expand into Sephora some day! Please share your photos and thoughts on her beautiful ever-evolving line. 

[Sunnysmom]

@tsavorite Yes, I’m not sure you’d use it for anything too strenuous or heavy but probably good to store your stash in it so you remember what we have right? Plus in cute packaging! I like to keep brands together if I can. 

[tsavorite]

Good point, @Sunnysmom !  😊

Storing my Jones Road at home would be a good use for one, or several, of these bags,.

[Sunnysmom]

A few of the new lips if anybody interested. I find them to be very comfortable, super satiny smooth and the pigment is good. The stain is so pretty for all of these and they have a nice translucency, especially Wine. It’s so beautiful built up . Tulip is a cool-toned  neutral and brightening , not chalky at all. Ruby is a great neutral cool-leaning red. A nice addition to her line. (One small hiccup is with my Wine tube- of course my fav color of the bunch. 🤣 The magnet lid is not super strong and sometimes can slip off . I swapped it with the Tulip cap which is stronger so I can put it in my bag. None of them are as strong as other brands however. Something they probably need to work on but they do stay on of course. Also mentioned to their CS which is very good.) Did anyone else buy these? 

@Ispend2much6 were you looking for good pinks, trying to remember.

@Sunnysmom , 

 These shades are really pretty!  I like Ruby and Tulip the best.  ( In case we are voting....)

[Sunnysmom]

Sure @tsavorite ! Vote away I say! Tulip is super pretty. Nice clear pink!

Thanks for the swatches, @Sunnysmom !  Wine is gorgeous!  Thanks too for the warning about the cap.  I'm not sure.  The swatches on her website are not impressive.  Your swatches look much better. 🙂

[Sunnysmom]

I have to think what they remind me of @Titian06 , I’ll work on it. Satiny, balmy, light to medium formula. VBB probably with more pigment or old BB formulas, Pat McG or MAC satins too. But they are good as a comforting lipstick . Wine is goood. These all are. Thank you, yes website swatches can be so tricky! Some good examples on their IG too. 💞

@Sunnysmom  Thanks for the swatches and feedback! Those 3 shades plus Chocolate are the ones I’m considering. Ruby looks gorgeous in your swatch photo. Good to know about the caps though; hope they’ll improve that at some point.

Bobbi will be at my local Jones Road store sometime this weekend for a book signing, so I might buy a ticket (price includes a copy of her book) and swatch a few things while I’m there.

[Sunnysmom]

Oh how fun @WinglessOne ! I wish we had a store. Do let me know if you go! It’s kind of strange that they didn’t get that part down right. CS didn’t even send me a new one vs credit saying they wouldn’t recommend a different one if it was the same batch, so that was a bummer. Love to hear if you see Wine and if it works better than mine! They are very satiny smooth. I wouldn’t say they last super long but I’ve used a pencil underneath and a stain and that’s helped too but if we just want a throw on comfy lip these fit the bill! 

[Sunnysmom]

New lip coming tomorrow September 18th, 8 am EST. I’m excited for these being a more pigmented formula. Shades correspond to the lip pencils.

@Sunnysmom , 

These lipstick shades look gorgeous! They grab my attention!

[Sunnysmom]

They all look really good @tsavorite and they feel wonderful! Do you think you’ll try them? 

[tsavorite]

@Sunnysmom , 

I am really tempted now!  Maybe I will start with just one!  Are they very opaque?  I do like sheer lipsticks.

[Sunnysmom]

They’re a satin formula that can be sheerish yes @tsavorite . I know you wouldn’t wear the wine shade but it’s the most sheer of mine tho pink is also on the sheer side. I think the shades you would like would definitely be lighter in depth too. They’re lightweight satiny moisturizing finish which is always more sheer. I wonder if you’d like mauve or nude pink. 🤔 I’m going to send you some info. 

[tsavorite]

Thank you for the info!   @Sunnysmom . 😊

 Instagram really helped me to see the shades better on the models.  I really like the Nude Rose and Rosenwood and a couple of the other shades to start.  At least I like them on the models.  MLBB.  I guess that's me. 

Now I am thinking again about The Bobbi Kit 5.0 !  It is so tempting to order( in the pinker set for me.)

[Sunnysmom]

Those look like beautiful options @tsavorite . They really feel like the smoothest satiny creamy lipstick with decent color. Not sheer but not too opaque. Just a normal satin lip with some shine. MLBB is perfect! Be prepared to fall in love with them! 😍 

[Sunnysmom]

New Just Enough tinted moisturizer arriving 4.8! Excited to see this lighter formula. 

[Sunnysmom]

I like the new lip pencils! Smooth and easy to spread or line. I didn’t get the eye shadow palette from holiday because I had some of the shades but I did want Smokey Brown so I was happy to see they offer it in a single now. It’s good. Not flat at all and has a little bit of grey shift to it when it’s on. Good for shadow or liner. Pinched Cheeks is a good flush with more pigmented color. Feels very soothing in these cold months too.

Gorgeous swatches! I also have pinched cheeks such a gorgeous shade I love how multipurpose the balms are the lip liners look fantastic  that is also a beautiful Smokey brown ♥️ @Sunnysmom 

[Sunnysmom]

I’m happy with the pigment in Pinched Cheeks shade @peculiarzmakeup , better than others that I have. Agree on the multi-purpose factor. Smokey Brown is so good, love it over a shimmery primer underneath! 

[tsavorite]

Thanks for the tag, @Sunnysmom !  Good swatches!  I'm interested.  I still am a fan of this line.
