It's too bad Bobbi won't be presenting. All the more reason not to watch.

Some of my hands-down favorite shadows are in this line. While I mostly pick matte, BB is one of the few lines that gets shimmer right for older lids. I also have every Shimmer Brick that fits my skintone, and love those too, However, I admit they're used on rare occasion.

I agree with @Shanus.

Her cleansing oil is superb- a beautiful formula. After I finished my bottle I replaced it with One Love Organics Vit. B Cleansing Oil- strictly based on recommendations by @HappyDaze & &@suzyQ3. Now I'm hopelessly hooked on OLO. I wait for sales, then buy two bottles at a time. It's THAT good. If there comes a time OLO cleanser is d/c'ed, I'll come running back to Bobbi's formula which as already stated is crazy good.
@Funloving this is what I do too- whenever there is a sale on it on their website, pharmaca or Dermstore, I stock up! I rarely stock up on anything! Fortunately I find it lasts me a long time (I only use one small pump) since I generally only use it once a day but I still want to make sure I don't have to pay full price for it when I run out but I will if I have to. Best.stuff.evah! It is so nice to finally find something that I want to stick with. 3 years and still going strong! Nice to "see" you around girlfriend!

Hey @HappyDaze! So good to see you too! I always look for you when I get a chance to visit the forum. But of course! Great minds think alike.. HA! Buying a couple of bottles during a sale is the only way to go. It's too expensive otherwise. I don't know if you recall when I bought my 1st (and only so far) 2 bottles. It's been a long time ago. They had just switched back to the original formula. I remember you and @suzyQ3 discussing how the formula had changed for a while- and due to overwhelming requests they went back to the original. I'm just now on the 2nd bottle used once a day. In a while I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for a good sale again. Thanks (as always) for such a GREAT rec, GF! Hope you and yours are well and happy!

I always liked Bobbi's lipsticks and eye shadows are very good. Do not like her foundations (too yellow based for me). Even though she no longer owns the co. it is still fun to watch something different.

Thank you for saying that. She is one of the proponents of YELLOW in foundation.

Maybe you need some, but sometimes it is TOO MUCH for my skin tone. I keep looking for the best foundation for very fair skin without too much yellow.

@Funloving funny you should mention both oils. I'm about to order a new cleansing oil today and I just can't decide between Bobbi's and One Love. Tell me why you're now hooked on OLO at this point.
@StillRachB,

There are several reasons. I like that it's truly organic, yet appeals to the senses with a wonderful natural scent- nothing strong. It has a different texture which I prefer- kind of hard to explain. My face feels so smooth and thoroughly cleansed without any drying. I think the B vitamins might have benefits- but that's a guess. It's a luxury product for me. It takes such little product to get a great cleansing... and is very soothing. Like BB's Cleansing Oil it removes all traces of eye makeup without irritation. Just a beautiful product I think everyone should try at least once. One bottle lasts for months of cleansing. I don't know if this helps. Honestly they're both very good. I just feel better about the ingredients in OLO and like the way one bottle lasts so long and makes cleansing a pleasure. Hope this helps a little.
@FunlovingWhere do you purchase this? It sounds heavenly.

@Pecky

So sorry.. had this addressed to @StillRachB not paying close attention.
I've only had 2 hours of sleep over the last couple of "daze."

It IS heavenly & my little splurge for night-time cleansing. Love it! To my nose there's a slight pineapple scent- probably from the enzyme. To answer your question and illustrate the longevity, I purchased 2 bottles from One Love Organics' website during a Cyber Monday sale in 2015. It's in a dark amber bottle. While on my 1st bottle I kept my 2nd (which I'm STILL using & close to 3/4 full) in the box in a dark cabinet and it's still as fresh as when 1st purchased. As you would expect from OLO, they're also cruelty-free. You can find it at other places- like the DermStore during one of their sales.

Like @HappyDaze, I'd pay full price. Fortunately you can often find sales.
