Bobbi Brown Pink Sand, Hot Rose, Bright Peony Luxe Lip Colors

Bobbi Brown Pink Sand (2) Luxe Lip Color

Bobbi Brown Pink Sand Luxe Lip Color ($35.00 for 013 oz.) is a light-medium peach with subtle, warm beige tones and a natural sheen. It had great pigmentation with a lightweight, creamy consistency that glided on without tugging, and I was impressed at how even the color applied for a lighter shade. The color lasted for four hours, but I had some color settle into lip lines. Estee Lauder Insatiable Ivory (P, $30.00) is lighter (95% similar).

It had rich, opaque color payoff that applied evenly and lasted for four and a half hours on me. The formula was nicely hydrating, but I noticed some color pulled into lip lines after three hours of wear. MAC Be a Lady (P, $22.00) is lighter (95% similar).

FORMULA SUMMARY | Bobbi Brown Luxe Lip Color ($35.00 for 0.12 oz.) is supposed to have one-stroke color coverage with a hydrating, smoothing formula, and “nourishing shine.” I was impressed with the formula as a whole, as the majority of the shades were very pigmented in one pass with a creamy consistency that glided on easily. There’s a richness to the texture that does feel more “luxe” in a way. The natural-to-luminous shine level gives lips a smoother, plumper look, while the formula itself is hydrating and many shades are longer-wearing. I noticed that the lighter shades tended to perform more poorly relative to more light-medium to medium-dark-hued shades. There was a faint floral scent (that was a surprise, I wish they had gone the unscented!), but I didn’t have issues with taste and found it very subtle on (it’s no Dior/Chanel-level scent!). In general, I like Bobbi Brown’s lipstick formulas, and this one feels creamier and more hydrating than others, but for pigmentation, you can’t go wrong with this or the Rich Lip Color formula.
