The Best of Bobbi Brown
Here is the next installment of my series “Best of Every Brand”- I’ll be listing my favorite products from Bobbi Brown. *Note: bobbibrowncosmetics.com is having a 25% off sale right now until June 11th. Happy shopping!
Shimmer Brick Compact
This shimmery compact is one of my favorite cheek products ever as it gives a gorgeous glow! It’s not only great for the cheeks, but makes for a beautiful sheer eyeshadow or even adds a sparkle to the lips. My favorite for a cheek highlighter is Beige, and Rose makes a great blush. For darker skin tones, Apricot makes a great highlight.
They Describe It As:
This shimmering, brush-on powder creates a candlelight glow. Sweep on cheeks, after Blush, using the Face Blender Brush.

Where to Buy:
Creamy Concealer
Since this concealer is a bit thick, it covers extremely well! You do need to apply with your fingers though as a brush tends to bit up a bit more product than I’d like. The correctors work really well for hiding dark circles under the eyes as it doesn’t slide into the fine creases, plus there are several shades of peach to match any skin tone.
They Describe It As:
Bobbi shares her favorite makeup artist tip — a yellow-based Creamy Concealer that instantly camouflages dark circles. The creamy consistency of this concealer ensures that it goes on smoothly, providing full, but natural looking coverage. The formula is filled with skin conditioning ingredients like Vitamin A, which helps minimize the appearance of fine dry lines and wrinkles and Vitamin E, which moisturizes and provides antioxidant protection.

Where to Buy:
Long Wear Gel Liner
These gel liners are similar to MAC’s fluidlines- they glide on easily, stay put, and have amazing colors! I love how smooth the application is when I use my angled liner brush along with them. My favorite colors are: Ivy Shimmery Ink, Black Plum Ink, and Cobalt Ink.
They Describe It As:
Our popular long-wearing eyeliner offers the precision of liquid liner and the ease of a gel-based formula.

i can never find a great eyeliner that stays on my inner waterline for more than 2 hours. any tips or products that i should be using? thanks marlena!
i absolutely love BB Corrector & Concealer,i swear by them! Although i do go through the corrector more than the concealer.. have to hide those dark circles =) However i went to Sephora yesterday and i’m trying out BeneFit Erase Paste in deep which is a smidge darker than BB Peach corrector and so far i like the Benefit erase paste more… you need very very little..
i love your site marlena!!!
can i use the BB gel eyeliner on my waterline?
I have used the gel liners for quite a while, and I can say I do have a collection!!!!! Great product, won’t fade, will last all night long. At least that’s been my case. It is easy to use, ( I do have the BB brush specific for this application, but any small angle brush will do). For me the best of all is that it doesn’t harden over time. I am almost through with my black ink one and its texture is as if it were a brand new product.
Smashbox’s Jet Set eyeliners are absolutely unsmudgeable in my experience. They only come in brown and black, but when I wear them on my waterline they stick to the point where it’s getting it off that’s the problem. They are a gel, but a bit thicker than the fluidline. I find it kind of a pain to apply, though.
Oh, how I love the Gel Liners. <3
I am IN LOVE with the gel liners. They glide on so smoothly. I can wear it all day through hot, humid weather and it won’t fade or smudge. I think I’ll be trying their concealer soon. I’ve heard such great things about it.
yeah.i love the shimmer brick and i have two of it.its simply gorgeous and the eyeliner is the best. Two thumbs up Bobbi brown
janeyyyy
i use urban decay 24/7 eye liner it is waterproof so will stay on your waterline all day and night. it glides on so easily and all the colours are really strong and vibrant. i would put one all over my eye lid then put a powder on top. makes ur eyes really pop. xo
nice products!!
For Janeyyyy:
Have you ever tried an eye primer? Try Bare essentials-it works for me!
Dear Marlena,
Thank you very much for those useful things. I will check them right away!
Thank you!
I love your website and think you are almost always spot on, but seriously…BOBBI BROWN CONCEALER?! Yes, the corrector is fabulous, but the concealer is 100% awful! I work for Bobbi and all us girls at the counter HATE putting it on customers. IT ABSOLUTELY SLIDES INTO FINE LINES! I’m 22 and have no lines and it still somehow ends up finding some to cake into…
using it on anyone over 30 is just a nightmare. yeah, it looks good at first, but give it 5 minutes…yuck!
Anyways though, LOVE THE SITE!
marlena-
WHERE HAVE ALL THE REVIEWS GONE?! i check every other day, and have been for the past month!!!!
Hi Marlena.. I´m a big fan of your videos and your website!!:)
Thanks for the info Kate! I was about to add Bobbi Brown´s concealer to my wish list.!
Can you suggest a good concealer (maybe drug store brand?) for red spots?
TKS!
YES i’m so in love with these 3 products you mention! thumbs up!
