Katie Holmes Bobbi Brown Ad Featuring the New Smokey Eye.

 

The first Bobbi Brown ad featuring Katie Holmes will debut in February. Look at how gorgeous Katie is wearing the new smokey eye in the ad.

When asked about Bobbi Brown, Katie said, “I’ve always been a fan of her makeup, because it’s so easy to apply. Her color palettes aren’t extreme, so when I first started wearing makeup it felt comfortable and I didn’t feel like I had too much on, which can happen. And then I met her, and she is just a lovely person – so generous. I think that it’s so exciting what she’s built with this company. She’s an incredible woman. So I’m thrilled on so many levels.

To get Katie's sultry smokey eye, you are going to want to know about Bobbi's latest product, the Long-Wear Cream Shadow Stick. The Long-Wear Shadow Stick is a a do-it-all shadow stick that glides over lids to shade, define, smoke up and highlight eyes. 

The formula is made up of a unique blend of oils, waxes and film formers that makes it water-resistant with a superior 8 hour wear time. The super colorful, rich emollients provide intense pigment in one simple swipe of the stick. It never flakes or creases. Of course Bobbi had to go above an beyond and make it good for you too. Antioxidant Vitamins C and E protect the delicate eye area while skin conditioners help create the super smooth and lightweight feel.

Available in eight shades, there are a few that I know will become regulars in my new smokey eye routine.

  • Vanilla -  warm cream
  • Golden Pink - a shimmering pink peach
  • Sand Dune - a medium beige tan
  • Iced Blue - a shimmering blue grey
  • Forest - a cool emerald green
  • Shadow - a smokey blue grey
  • Bark - a rich brown
  • Violet Plum - a light lavender

The Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Cream Shadow Stick sells for $28.00 each and is available at all Bobbi Brown counters and online at bobbibrowncosmetics.com now.

bareMinerals READY Eyeshadow.

My love for the bareMinerals READY products continues. Despite having a little reaction to the bareMinerals READY Foundation, I am still in love with it, and I couldn't wait to try more from the READY line up. So next on my list to try were the bareMinerals READY Eyeshadows.

bareMinerals READY Eyeshadow is super pigmented, super smooth with an almost creamy feels, and is super long-wearing. The powder texture feels so soft and silky and feels like a cream as it is applied. They blend with ease and look gorgeous all day. The formula is infused with bareMinerals' proprietary SeaNutritive Mineral™ Complex and some powerful antioxidants, cold-pressed borage oil, along with caffeine and cucumber; so anti-aging benefits are built right in. I've always had this thinking that if I am going to wear makeup, I rather wear makeup that is good for me, which this eyeshadow is.
