Bobbi Brown sold her line to Estee Lauder years ago. Bobbi created Jones Road Beauty a year or so ago. While pricey, the products I've tried are excellent.

I remember reading something about that;  it's been at least 5 years, I believe.   

I guess not everyone knew Bobbi Brown no longer owns Bobbi Brown.

@monicakm I believe the product you're talking about is Face Base.  It's nice.  Macy's currently has a full size Face Base with a full size Eye Base for $52.50 which is a great buy since the Face Base is $64 and the Eye Base is $56.  The same set is still $75 at Nordstrom and Neimans.

@lkat 

Ohhh, thanks so much!

[monicakm]

@lkat 

OK, I'm going for it   Thanks again!

@lkat 

I'm not getting the sale price.  I've put both products in my cart and it's showing $120   Is there a code I need to include?

@lkat 

Nevermind!  I see it.

@Shanus - At one time I would have said Laura Mercier was my go-to line for everything but mascara (Lancôme). But now I'm all over the place. I really don't have one specific line any longer. I haven't used any Mercier products in a lot of years. 

There is always something new to tempt me!

@beach-mom   I use all different lines and have for seveeral years...price and the downfall of the makeup. I'm still stuck finding another line with the perfect neutral porcelain foundations, tinted moisturizers, correctors and concealers. The fact that they're all co-ordinated makes it so easy.

@monicakm  - were you able to get both products for 52.50?  Please let us know your thoughts when you've had the chance to use it.  Would love a review from you.

@Shanus   Blame it on inflation and everyone is participating in raising prices.  Too bad social security doesn't give higher percentage raises to keep up with inflation.  All I know if prices are too high, I will really think about it -- do I really need this?  I think every woman has a dollar amount on what she will spend on beauty products.  I say, it stinks!!! lol  P.S.  Every beauty line whether it's Bobbie Brown, Trish MeEvoy,  Estee Lauder, Dior, etc. has something special to offer.  Not all products in each line have all excellent products -- it's rather impossible.

Yes I did @San Antonio Gal I was looking at the individual products but it was a kit containing both products.
