Bobbi Brown reinvents corals

This spring, New York makeup artist Bobbi Brown is solving a perennial makeup problem: Women who love colour but worry they’ll look too bright or chalky.  So with her Cabana Corals collection arriving at Holt Renfrew and Murale in February, Bobbi uses modern formulas and juicy colours to make colour infinitely wearable.  (Click here for the full story from Cosmetics Magazine.)

Bobbi Brown Limited Edition Chrome Palette

I love a good makeup palette. The kind that has all the right shades (so you don’t end up only dipping into a few), good quality brushes (hater of the sponge applicator), and a compact case (I travel light). So when I came across the Bobbi Brown Chrome Palette that features 10 eyeshadows, four lip colours and two brushes, I fell in love. Like, the head-over-heels kinda love. Coming in at $75 it’s a bit of a splurge, but the impeccable quality and oh-so-chic set up makes it a little luxury that I’ve decided I can’t do without.

The spring runways were awash with sheer, floaty fabrics in a zillion different shades of nude. And while these styles looked amazing agliding down the runways, real life and see-through don’t always go hand in hand (especially not at a 9 a.m meeting). But, I think I have found the perfect bra/camisole to go under all thing sheer and tight.

Details, after the jump!
