Surf & Sand from Bobbi Brown
Bobbi Brown’s Surf & Sand collection is Bobbi’s perfect summer beauty essentials for creating an effortlessly chic beach look. I’m not sure I want to head to the beach with a full face of makeup, but I can see where she is coming from…
This lovely collection is, however, perfect for those summer evenings – and days – when you’re not heading to the beach, Or, perhaps, if you’re going to a beach or poolside resort where posing is more important than swimming or sunbathing!
The star of the collection is the Limited Edition Surf & Sand Eye Palette, which comes in two shades- Surf and Sand. Surf, as you may expect has blues, greens and pinks like the sea (with a touch of coral and gold thrown in) and Sand repreents the golden sands, with bronzes, golds, creams and browns. Each palette contains eight lovely shadows.
There are Four new shades of Limited Edition Sheer Lip Color – sunlit pink, summer nude, peach sorbet and pink taffy, Long Wear Eye Pencil in Bronze and Black Chocolate, a Long Wear Shadow Stick in 24 Karat, and two lovely Limited Edition Brightening Blush – Bronze or Pink.
I love the 24 Karat Cream Shadow Stick – highlight the inner corner of your eye with this for a gorgeous, pretty, summertime look. The Brightening Blush in Bronze is another winner for a radiant, summer glow.
