Ladies, here’s a closer look at the lippies from the Bobbi Brown Earth Metal Lip and Eye Palette ($60).
BAM! Giant lip swatches comin’ atcha. 🙂
Rose Bud: a creamy warm brown cream
These join six shimmer eyeshadows in the Earth Metal palette.
I think Rose Bud’s (shown above) my favorite…
What’s yours?
Barefoot Shimmer: a shimmery golden pink
Rose Garden: a shimmery rose
Paisley Rose: a shimmery pinkish beige
STORM UPDATE: It’s still raining cats and dogs out here. Good thing I’m an animal lover! 🙂
I hope the power doesn’t go out…
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
oooooo, that palette is so gorgeous…wow. I like Paisley Rose the best but honestly they’re all nice.
Hang in there with the storm…I hope the power doesn’t go out on you! How is the moving-in process going this week?
Hi Abby,
The storm is momentarily breaking. The power almost went out once… hopefully it’ll stay on!
As for moving, it’s still overwhelming, but not half as challenging as it was last week. There’s still boxes all over the place, plus, I still have to buy curtains. The place is slowly but surely getting there, though. 🙂
How’s your week going so far?
I’m with ya on the Rose Bud as my fave. This seems like a great little palette to keep in the purse for touchups. If only there was a slide out copmartment for blusher, I’d be set!

Hi Kajal Couture,
Oh yah, a blush would make this a fantastic travel palette. 🙂
RoseBud is my favourit too. But I’m still not digging this palette, the lipsticks look too sheer for my liking.

Hi Gio,
Yes, the lippies are very nude and natural.
At least other lines like MAC will have more colorful stuff, right?
I like Rose Garden and Paisley Rose because they are the most pigmented and I like the pinks. Are they buildable to get a more opaque finish? Ahh at last winter is arriving with rainy season in the west coast. But I do love the smell of rain and thunder and lightning. I loving watching storms because I think it is romantic.

Hi Amy,
They’re buildable, but I prefer them more as a sheer wash. 🙂
Damn! I really love that palette!
Hi Hazel,
LOL! You better adopt it then!
I would love if the colors would have been more vibrant 🙂 They look sweet doh 🙂

Hi Tavia,
I know you’re a pink lipstick kinda girl!
Hmm, to bump up the vibrancy I might try layering them beneath a pink liner like MAC Pink Treat.
I’d love to see how you’d play with the eyeshadows. 🙂

Hi Meream,
I’ll try to do a FOTD soon!
gorgeous lip colors!!

Hi Blovet Beauty,
Yeah, I like them too!
Another vote for Rose bud! Mostly because it’s the most opaque out of all of them.
Sorry to hear about the weather. I believe it rained last night here in Southern Cali and it’s been on and off drizzle [or as I used to say as a kid ‘sprinkling’] with cloudy grey skies. Really makes a girl get lazy..

Hi Stephie,
LOL, I still say “sprinkling.”
I feel ya pain about the lazy! I have so many errands to do but the sideways rain makes me want to stay in and drink hot cocoa.
I’m definitely with ya on Rose Bud — how pretty! The shadows didn’t exactly win me over, but these lip shades are all simply gorgeous!

Hi Rae,
Bobbi whips up some fantastic lip shades. 🙂
Barefoot shimmer, but this palette still doesn’t draw me. I prefer higher pigmentation that can be sheered out.

Awesome palette! Bobbi Brown outdid itself this year!
