Bobbi Brown Spring 2009 Collection



Several days ago, we looked at Bobbi Brown’s “reject” palette, now let’s look at the products and colors that actually make the cut to be in her collections. Her spring collection is called Blushed Pink and is series of shimmer-based, sheer shades. From the Bobbi Brown website, “Pure Romance - Sparkling eyes are paired with creamy blushed pink cheeks and lips for a look that's soft, refined and absolutely effortless.“ Here is a quote from Bobbi herself about this collection, “Pairing different textures on the face is what’s new for spring”.


The collection is right here…


Sparkle Eye Shadow - New Sparkle Eye Shadow is a featherweight formula that instantly lights up eyes with a unique combination of shimmering pearls and glitter in a translucent base. Creamy-soft powder shadow glides on smoothly and clings to lids for crease-free, long-lasting wear.
- Ballet - light pink glitter


Lip Compact - Blushed pink lips are the perfect complement to the season's soft, sparkly eye. Bobbi has created three gorgeous options, each with a different finish: high shine, glittery and creamy.
- Baby - soft pink with glitter
- Blush - pale nude pink
- Nude - neutral pink


Bobbi Brown Eye Shadow - available in a range of shades for lids, lining eyes, and defining brows. This silky, matte formula glides on smoothly and blends easily.
- New Mink - deep brown
- New Birch - soft brown


Everything Mascara - An innovative, all-in-one formula that lengthens, thickens, and defines - without smearing, smudging or clumping. With special conditioning and strengthening ingredients for beautiful, luscious lashes.
- Black - black


Blush - Bobbi Brown Blush is a silky formula that glides on smoothly and offers a matte finish with long-lasting wear.
- Peony - bright pink
- Pale pink - light pink


There is couple of things in this collection that I wouldn’t mind having. I really want the Pale Pink blush because I have heard wonderful reviews about how well her blushes apply and how amazing their pigmentation is. I also would really like to try the new Sparkle Eye Shadow in Ballet. The last item that I want is the lip compact, I really like all three of the shades and they would really work well for new skin tone. I think that I prefer Bobbi’s collections to her “runway only colors”.
