03 Aug Makeup Review, Swatches: Bobbi Brown Navy & Nude Collection Fall 2013: Eye Palette, Liner, Shadow Base, Bronzing Gel, Shimmer Brick, Lipgloss
August seems to be the month of clean, nude faces. Bobbi Brown delivers the Navy & Nude Collection at the end of summer — shimmery shadows, navy nails and bronzed skin are all components in this collection, which deliver a beautiful late summer look.
First is the Navy & Nude Eye Palette ($60.00) — a beautiful cobalt palette containing seven skintone-enhancing shades, along with a cobalt blue shade which doubles as an eyeliner. If clean, bright and crisp is the look you love, then you must get this palette.
Bobbi also offers two more products to either use alone or with your palette: Long-Wear Cream Shadow ($25.00) in Suede, a tan brown.
And to line your eyes and make them smolder there’s Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner ($23.00) in Steel Ink — this shade is a great alternative to black; it gives you impact but it’s not as dramatic as basic black.
For skin, Bobbi offers two wonderful products: All Over Bronzing Gel SPF 15 ($32.00) and Brightening Brick ($45.00) in Pink. No one does the bronzed look better than Bobbi!
The All Over Bronzing Gel helps you achieve a perfect endless summer look — I find this product works amazing when paired with the famous Foundation Stick ($42.00). You can control the amount of coverage with this foundation to make sure your look is very natural.
Summer isn’t over yet! Check out Bobbi Brown’s Nude Beach Summer 2013 Collection full of shimmery color sticks, glossy nude lips and beige nails. See swatches —> HERE!
Interesting note: the shade Joe Brown is named after Bobbi’s Dad, Joe. Yes, you understood correctly. Men can also use this product as well. It’s that easy (and natural) to use.
Second product in the skin category is the Brightening Brick in Pink. This limited-edition powder can be used all over the face for a lit-from-within glow, or just as a subtle sheen for the cheeks.
For lip and nails, to round out the look and keep it simple, Bobbi offers Nail Polish in Navy ($18.00). Like the Steel Ink liner, this is a beautiful alternative to black polish this season.
For lips, you can keep them shiny and subtle with an old favorite, Lipgloss ($24.00) in Honey. Also in the collection (not pictured) is a beautiful sheer red named Sailor, which is also limited-edition.
There you have it! A gorgeous, well-rounded collection that will take you from late summer weddings to sailing in the afternoon.
