If Kate wears Bobbi, so can I...

    Since I found out that Kate has been using Bobbi Brown make-up, my interest in BB has picked up again. I'm back to using some of my very first Bobbi eyeshadows (remember when they used to be round?!) and I also have the new tortoiseshell palette on my wishlist. Here is what I've been wearing lately:




    Face: Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua in B40 Beige Desert, Laura Mercier loose setting powder in Translucent
    Cheeks: Soleil Tan de Chanel in 537 Bronze Corail
    Eyeshadows: Beach honey (cream) as base, then Bone, Malted, Fawn all by Bobbi Brown 
    Eyeliner: Black (gel) by Bobbi Brown and Stylo Yeux Waterproof by Chanel 
    Mascara: Sublime de Chanel in black 
    Lips: Chanel Rouge Coco Shine in 46 Liberte

    The long-wear cream shadow in Beach Honey is one of my must haves. I use this all the time as an eyeshadow base. And I'm still loving Chanel's bronzer-blush, eyeliner and lipstick. I'm pleased with the Bobbi powder eyeshadows, too - they are really good quality and the colours are always so beautiful.

    On the other hand, I prefer the Inimitable Intense mascara (also Chanel). And although the gel eyeliner is a repurchase, I'm not so impressed anymore - it does not last all day on me.

    Here is Kate's face chart by Bobbi Brown:


    Eyeshadows: Ivory, Rockstar, Slate
    Eyeliner: Black (gel)
    Mascara: No smudge
    Cheeks: Pale pink, Pink quartz shimmer brick
    Lips: Sandwash pink, Crystal gloss

    I've started using Slate and Pale Pink blush again as well (I had both of these in my collection). I also had Sandwash Pink in an eye-lip palette and tried it on but it's just not my colour. Never liked the Lip Colours, anyway. And I don't like the No Smudge mascara. As for the shimmer brick, I have one in beige and forget to use it so I won't be getting another one...  

    Middle eyeshadow is Slate
    Bottom left: Pale pink blush
    Bottom right: Sandwash pink lip colour

    Pippa's face chart:


    Eyeshadows: Bone, Ash (cream)
    Eyeliner: Black (gel)
    Mascara: Extreme lash glamour
    Cheeks: Sand pink, Bronze highlighter
    Lips: Blondie pink, Confetti gloss
