I work from home everyday except for Thursday, when I go into the office. Yesterday I walked in and the first person who looked at me said, “Wow! You look young”. Seriously.
So I had to remember what I had on, and then it hit me…I was using three products from Bobbi Brown’s Facelift Collection; the Brow Pencil, the Brightening Lip Gloss and the wonderful Tinted Eye Brightener.
Bobbi’s Tinted Eye Brightener ($38.00 USD), now in a NEW portable pen. This use to be available in a little pot, but now it is in a, easy to use pen. This takes a few twists at first to get it flowing, but then it saturates the brush and you can go to town! I find that it hides my under eye circles pretty well and brightens the eye area. I do think that the price may be a little much, but it is a nice product to have in your purse. Available in eight shades.
Brow Pencil ($20.00 USD) — Brows do frame the face, so it is important to keep them groomed. I have very dark brow and haven’t had to use brow products, until recently. My brows are now thinning and look a little faded. This pencil is easy to use to color in and define brows and even comes with it’s own sharpener. I use the darkest color, Mahogany — but it is also available in Wheat, Blonde, Grey and Ash. What I have noticed about this is that it is very creamy, but you only have a few seconds to play with it before it dries and WILL NOT BUDGE! This is great, because you do not want your brows migrating south, but just be aware if you need to smudge or remove.
Brightening Lip Gloss ($20.00 USD) This sheer, reflective formula wakes up your face and helps create fuller lips. I like to wear it alone, but you can wear it on top of lipstick. I liked the color of this gloss — a light pink called Popsicle that looked more wearable on than in the tube. I thought it might look a little young on me, but it is very pretty. The only down side to this gloss is that it is a little sticky and the brush fanned out on me and won’t go back into shape. It is available in 6 brightening shades, the two new ones are Popsicle and Nectar, a peachy-pink. It also comes in Peach, Pink, Pink Lilac and White.
