If I were a pirate…my makeup collection would be my pirate’s booty, yargh!
And like most swashbuckling sailors of the seven seas (at least the ones in Hollywood movies), I’d wear a lot of looks featuring dark black eyeliner (hello, have you seen Jack Sparrow’s water line?? FIERCE!).
I’d also want a steady supply of sheer glosses to balance out those heavy eyeliner looks.
Ahoy, matey! Bobbi Brown has yer solution, and it’s not just for buccaneers and marauders. If you have a soft spot for sheer gloss, you just might like the five new $23 Lip Glosses from the Caviar & Oyster Collection.
Like a hunk of driftwood or a bottle with a message inside (“Please send gravy!”), the eight-piece release recently washed up on Bobbi Brown counters, delighting makeup treasure hunters with a palette, a nail polish, a dual-ended mascara and the five new glosses in predominantly cool-toned neutral shades.
The hook? — no, not the one replacing Blackbeard’s hand. With the collection, Bobbi aimed to offer her fans the option of going strong and smokey or soft and pretty.
But here’s the thing about the glosses: even the darker shades, like Moonlight Pearl and Black Pearl, seem pretty tame to me, so you might want to blank them out first with a layer of concealer.
Then whom are they for? Well, if you covet sheer, cool-toned glosses like a pirate covets treasure, you might not want to miss these new Caviar & Oyster Collection glosses from Bobbi Brown.
PRICE: $23 each
AVAILABILITY: Available now at Bobbi Brown counters and bobbibrowncosmetics.com

Beware of pirates
On my walk yesterday I took a turn down a street I’d never been down before and came upon this cheeky fellow decorating someone’s front yard.
Weird! But kinda cool, right? I wish I’d thought of it. It’s like a scarecrow for adults, LOL! Picture seeing one of these in front of someone’s garage… 🙂
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
I want a Pirate for the yard too! Sure beats a flamingo!
These glosses look so pretty on you! That shot of you wearing Black Pearl is STUNNING!
beautiful photos. I have never tried bobbi brown lip gloss but I do need to update my makeup bag. Might try one of these pretty colors
So so subtle! But so so pretty 🙂 My question is– are they TOO subtle or do you notice the difference on your lips in real life?
You hair is so insanely gorgeous in these shots! And surprisingly really loving Black Pearl–it’s so unique and pretty!
I like both light shades.
What eyeshadows are you wearing in this post? x
I like all these shades. Really gorgeous.
Sarah
I want that!!
The glosses do look great on you, which is no surprise. 🙂 That pirate lawn ornament is too funny. I’m glad you didn’t come across it at dusk, though. That might have been a little disconcerting. HAHA!
DUDE! The glosses look good but your HAIR LOOKS AMAZING!!! I love the face-framing-waves!
Loving the sultry photos, very gorgeous! I actually like all of these glosses.
Pretty, pretty…..
Awesome pirate!
The glosses are pretty but might not be for me. Ive realized that shimmer/pearl on the lips just aint my thang. 🙂
Bobbi brown is amazing! You look gorgeous in these pics. Thanks for the review.
I truly adore her lip glosses but these are stunning! Oyster is just gorgeous!
Any info on how long these beautiful glosses last?
Even with the missing “N” it’s still a lovely shade!
My Black Pearl is in the mail, should be here any minute now. The pugs and I are waiting at the door for UPS. I seriously keep checking the doorstep and they’re like “what the hell Lady?!” Yes, they call me Lady ha ha ha!
They all look gorgeous on you! I can’t wait for mine.
Pink Oyster looks really nice.
holy moly these looks gorgeous on you – especially black pearl! make sure you keep that one!
what eyeshadow are you wearing?
oops, i mean look not looks!
Karen, I love you. You make me laugh out lout in embarrassing areas and give me the deets on makeup. The oyster pearl looks gorg for super pale girls like moi.
