Many apologies, my dear friends, for having taken such an extended break. I never knew the home buying process could be so daunting and time, nay, LIFE consuming! That being said, we are set to close and I am ready to talk faces! OK, so I always love to get to work with a new line. I have been invited to work Bobbi Brown’s skin care event. Bobbi is a line I have always liked, but never really dove into. So since I am doing to facials, I figured I would get up close and personal. I have found some products I can honestly say I will no longer live without.

First of all, the Buffing Grains are amazing! They are made from Japanese Adzuki Bean Powder, and they are completely customizable. Got sensitive skin? No problem! Add a bit more water and the bean particles break down a bit so they are more gentle. The best part is that you mix them with your cleanser twice a week to save a step and some time. My face feels butter soft and all of my skin care can really work better on fresh skin. They smell great and are a natural way to fight off aging. At a mere 40 smackers at Dillard’s, they pack quite a wallop for the price. I am so hooked on these magic beans!

Now that I am approaching my 30’s, I am starting to heed my own warnings about taking care of my eyes. About two weeks ago when I signed up to work this event, I got a sample of Bobbi’s new EXTRA  Eye Repair Cream. I have been pleasantly surprised at how rich the cream feels and how it allows for a very smooth application of my concealer. A formula of peptides and natural plant oils make it great for sensitive eyes. This baby is an all-in-one under eye hero, targeting puffiness, dryness, dark circles, wrinkles….The WORKS! You can use it day and night, which I much prefer to having two separate creams for either day or night. It is $65 at Dillard’s, but I venture to say it is well worth the price. Just warm it between your fingers, apply and let it go to work.

Last, but not least, Vitamin Enriched Face Base is quickly moving up the chains in my arsenal against aging. I love the light geranium and grapefruit scent, but that is just aesthetics. It is made from Shea Butter, but it really isn’t greasy feeling at all. Carrot extract and Vitamin A help to banish signs of aging like fine lines while Vitamins C and E work as environmental defenders. At 50 clams, it is evenly priced with most of the moisturizers out there AND this one last forever because a little goes a long way. I just love how comfortable my face feels and how even my foundation looks when I use this product.

The Bobbi Brown Skin Care Event runs Thursday January 14th through Saturday January 16th. I will be working Thursday evening and Saturday mid-morning til the afternoon. Please call the counter to check avalibility as facials are done by appointment only. I certainly hope you can make it. OH and your color will be done after your facial for a full days beauty in one sitting.
