Bobbi Brown Foundation Stick

As promised here is another amazing Bobbi Brown product that is sure to become a summer staple. Meet Bobbi's foundation stick! This innovative Foundation Stick is designed for portability and adjustable coverage- it is easy to apply and blend all over the face or just where you need it.

How do I use it? Keep skin nude or use a tinted moisturizer. Instead of a full face of foundation, spot-apply the stick foundation just where skin is red or uneven.

Your skin will be feeling so much better without a liquid foundation over the summer months, and Bobbi Brown's foundation stick will give you the coverage, lasting power, and lightness that you crave in this hot weather.

With a bunch of different colors to choose from you will definitely be able to find your perfect match- I purchased "sand" and it looks great!

You can purchase this product on the Bobbi Brown website, Sephora, or at department stores (Nordstrom, etc.)  Retail Price: $42

Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick

Oh yes- finally it is sweet sweet summertime here in Boston- and the heat is sweltering! Therefore giving me the amazing excuse of buying new summer makeup :) my new favorite is Bobbi Brown lately so you will be seeing a few posts in the coming weeks on some of the new products I have been using.

Introducing the cult favorite, Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick! I have actually had my eye on this for quite some time (ashamed to say like 2 years lol) but I just never purchased it for some reason... Boy did I waste time- If only I knew how amazing this product was!

The shimmer brick gives you the perfect summer shimmery glow, without looking shiny. I couldn't be happier with the look it gives me- and it is super simple and quick to apply. I purchased my shimmer brick in "Rose". Bobbi Brown has this shimmer brick in a few different colors, so check out her website for all of the details and shades.

Apply after your bronzer and blush, sweep your brush through all five shades of Shimmer Brick Compact and dust lightly on cheekbones. Focus on applying shimmer on the top of cheekbones - where light naturally hits the face - for the most flattering look. I have used this as my only color (replacing blush), so it is very versatile depending on the look you want to create.

The Face Blender Brush is a great multi-purpose brush, ideal for dusting Shimmer Brick Compact on cheekbones for a natural-looking, shimmery glow. This Brush can also be used with Sheer Finish Powder, Blush, or Bronzing Powder.

Face Blender Brush Retail Price: $48
Shimmer Brick Retail Price: $42
Both of these products are available on Bobbi Brown's website.

Cargo Waterproof Blush

I have found my new favorite summer blush! I actually discovered this unique gem through a generously sized Birchbox sample (which will probably last me 6 months). Introducing the Cargo Waterproof Blush, a staple for every makeup loving fashionista!

This blush's long-lasting formula is sweat-, heat-, and tear-proof. And it’s packed with subtle light-diffusing minerals that give skin an effortless glow. So how does it work? L-lysine, an amino acid naturally found in your skin, ups the blush’s staying power.

This blush is available in three shades—Ibiza, a shimmery bubblegum pink that goes on surprisingly sheer, Bali, a medium rose, and Los Cabos, a soft tangerine—flatter a range of skin tones. Personally I am using the Ibiza shade, I love it. Don’t be intimidated by the bright hues, but use sparingly—a little goes a long way!

You can purchase this blush on the Birchbox website. Retail price: $26
