A bold and vibrant lipstick formula from Bobbi Brown.
The Review:
These gold lipstick tubes from Bobbi Brown are hard to miss when you visit a department store or shopping for lipsticks online. I love the sense of refined luxury from the recent Bobbi Brown launches.
Once you’ve gotten over how pretty the packaging is, the formula is fantastic as well. It’s ultra creamy and pigmented. In one swipe,you get a full coverage on your lips. Hence, I would suggest using a lip brush with this, especially with the brighter shades.
After you have it on, it feels quite comfortable and nourishing. It’s a crème finish, and not completely matte. The brand also offers the Luxe Matte Lip Color formula, if you want a matte look.
The wear lasts a good 4 to 5 hours on me. It can withstand some eating and drinking, but would require touch-ups after a full meal.
This lipstick range has more than 30 shades, from bold true red to warm peach. As with any Bobbi Brown lip color range, there are plenty of neutral pinks and everyday nudes to choose from. Most of the shades are shimmer free. Some shades like Neutral Rose appear to have some shimmer in the tube, but they are not noticeable once applied.
