Gloss of the Day: Bobbi Brown Black Chocolate.

From the Bobbi Brown Fall 2010 Collection called Black Velvet, this is the gloss created especially to go with the color palette of the entire collection. It is named Black Chocolate.

 

 

It looks very dark in the tube, but it applies as a sheer chocolate cherry color, almost a brown berry. It is full of glossy shine and even has soothing botanical extracts in it to keep lips soft as it is worn.

Bobbi Brown Hydrating Skincare.

Bobbi Brown has made a life out of making women look beautiful. She knows that the first step in making us look beautiful with makeup is with proper skincare. Skin needs hydration and hydration that lasts. Yes, even skin that is oily, otherwise you wind up with more lines and discolorations. Bobbi knows the importance of making hydration last and has tested formula upon formula in developing this new skincare line. It is appropriately called Bobbi Brown Hydrating Skincare.

This Enriched Mineral Water-infused line gives your skin exactly what it needs to stay healthy: moisture. The creams have a lightweight texture so they melt right in, keep your skin soft and glowing all day, and make sure that foundation and concealer go on smooth and evenly. And with their clean botanical scent, the products smell as fresh as they feel.” - Bobbi Brown

Hydating Skincare works in three ways:

  1. Hydrates - The ingredients in the Hydrating line are designed to replenish dehydrated skin. Super moisturizing Sodium Hyaluronate and Glycerin, a natural humectant, as well as skin barrier-protecting ingredients are replenished to provide instant, 24 hour and long-term hydration.
  2. Balances - A natural humectant helps maintain water levels deeper in the skin for a healthy, glowing complexion.
  3. Revives - Each product in the line also contains its own unique star ingredients as well as collagen to restore the natural plumpness and youthful feel and condition of skin.

The collection includes five new skincare products. To see them all, view them over in the Bobbi Brown Hydrating Skincare Collection Photo Gallery.
