Bobbi Brown has always had a knack for neutrals. This is the woman, after all, who kicked off her now-legendary career as a beauty entrepreneur with an Essentials collection of ten tawny-hued lipsticks designed to be universally flattering makeup building blocks. Whenever we have found ourselves in need of perfectly executed beauty basics to add [...]

Holiday fragrances often fall into a trap. With classic merrymaking aromas (think: sugar plums, candy canes, winter fresh pine, etc.) dancing in everyone’s heads for the next two months, steering clear of these festive scents is nearly impossible. Yet somehow, Bobbi Brown has managed to stay strong with the release of her new offering, Bobbi’s [...]

White dresses and open-toed sandals may get all the glory, but tortoiseshell is just as quintessentially summer, if you ask us. Our favorite tortoise Persols wouldn’t scream beach nearly as loud if they were any other color—and apparently, Bobbi Brown is on the same tip. Brown’s new Tortoise Shell Eye Palettes are encased by the [...]

With flip-flops and flimsy dresses in our sights and spring’s warming trend showing no signs of abating, we’ve kissed heavy foundations goodbye in favor of tinted moisturizers. The lightweight fluids are highly conducive to sun-drenched breezes and garden parties, as they melt into a barely visible veil of hydrated coverage and never look dry or [...]

It’s safe to say that Rihanna’s first fragrance, Reb’l Fleur, is an overwhelming success. At an in-store appearance at Macy’s in New York’s Herald Square this weekend, Ri-Ri managed to personally push over $60,000 worth of the scent. A sequel is no doubt in the works. [WWD]

Bobbi Brown isn’t in the business of painting faces just for pretty’s sake. Anyone who has read her tomes on the subject is well aware of the Brown diktat that cosmetics are a power tool—a way to help you not only look good, but feel good, too. It should come as no surprise, then, that [...]

Many moons ago, when I was a fresh-faced beauty assistant, Bobbi Brown hosted an event to introduce those of us on the lowest end of the totem pole to her famed concealer—and presumably hook us at the get-go. It worked, obviously, and I’ve been a fan of her under-eye-brightening, spot-correcting miracle workers ever since. I [...]
