Luxe Lip Color from Bobbi Brown

2 min read

Bobbi Brown has just launched some lovely new lipsticks – Luxe Lip Color. Featuring gorgeous, sumptuous, gold packaging, and a luxurious new formula, these are, to paraphrase (or totally plagiarise!) a well-known brand’s slogan, not just any lipstick…!

This new formula delivers treatment benefits as well as fantastic colour. These clever lipsticks will help visibly reduce the appearance of fine lines, and relieve flaking while a blend of moisture-boosting ingredients work to help keep lips soft and conditioned.

I’m not sure what the miracle ingredients are  – I assume a blend of butters for moisturising. There are 30 shades in the new range – from subtle pinks, to bright oranges and deep reds; and lots of neutrals of course. Bobbi worked with her makeup artists from around the world to select the most popular global shade lineup that works for all skin tones.

Bobbi suggests two ways to apply this lippy – swipe on straight from the bullet for full coverage. The custom moulded bullet has been designed to deliver intense rich colour pay-off in just one swipe, and the colour is intense, I will give them that. The pointed tip of the bullet makes it easy to line and define the outer edges of the lips, like a built in lip liner.

For Bobbi Brown Luxe Lips - use a lip brush

If you do want more precise application, then use the new Retractable Lip Brush – just remove the cap and attach it to the back end of the brush to provide you with a strong, steady handle for a professional application.

Lovely lipsticks, but I’m not quite sure what to make of the campaign shot with the beautiful Kate Upton wearing a bold lipstick … in the bath?!

Anyway. To wear in the bath, or anywhere else, these new lipsticks are worth trying!

Bobbi Brown Luxe Lip Color, £25, and Retractable Lip Brush, £22.50, available from Bobbi locations nationwide, and bobbibrown.co.uk, from October 1
