My skin is too oily for those sticks!  I have also found great colored neutral foundations in Dior's liquids.  They work great for me!  And the matte finish (more matte) holds its own against the oil.

 

Dior's are my go-to when I really want to look great!  Just a note if you have hard to match light skin as I do. 


 

 

@Sooner   Estée Lauder Double Wear is a good foundation I often use on clients.


@Shanus I have never been able to wear EL because they are about the worst for me of the pink/yellow issue.  I used to try them at the counter but it always showed up as my face being a different color.

 

Skin tones come in an amazing array of colors don't they? It's like snowflakes--no two are really alike!  LOL!!! But thanks for the suggestion!!!!  Woman Happy


@Sooner   The biggest issue I’ve found is that many foundations oxidize on the face. They change as soon as our natural oils kick in or they come in contact w/ skincare.

@Shanus, Bobbi's store in Montclair is closed. Her hotel, though, is still open and running. Have you ever been there? It is beautiful!

I also love Bobbi Brown's Stick Foundation, I wear Honey, and it is a perfect match for me...It is such a nice finish, it looks as if you are not wearing makeup.....Since I don't wear it every day, mine lasts for a very long time!

@Trinity11 Her studio in Montclair has been closed for some time. I haven’t seen her hotel...recently opened...decorated in an English theme.

I love this foundation.  It’s the only one that has ever really matched my skintone.  So easy to use. Anyone else a fan?

 

(I am a cool sand.  Perfect match.)

@Shanus  of course I feel the same way you do....I loved her original concept!  We all knew it would become just one new product after another once she wasn’t involved any longer.....  I still have some Bobbi Brown Essentials products just for old time’s sake😁

i miss: Moisture Rich foundation, stick blush and bronzers, and some of the eyeshadow and lipstick colors no longer available....heck, even the stick foundation isn’t the same!

 


 

@redsnapper   The lipstick shades (some & other discontinued products on BB) are available on QVC and I’ve Googled and found favorites on other reliable sites. For fair skinned beauties, I hate that my porcelain concealer is now only available in a compact with white powder (all other shades have the yellow color correcting shade). The full coverage w/ doe foot is thick and settles into lines...thicker than using my Alabaster Stick Foundation. I do still use the Soothing Oil Cleanser and have since it was added to the line. In winter, I supplement my SkinCeuticals w/ the EXTRA line which seems to be discontinued an item at a time....especially my Extra Tinted Moisturizer.

Re: Bobbi Brown's Stick Foundation

I love her foundation stick and the colors are spot on!!   I just wish it had SPF in it becuase that is so important to me now. But it provides a beautiful coverage and always has been the best foundation for years.

Darn I’ve been using the bone and sandy gold cream shadows for years. I much prefer the bb formula over Mac paint pots. Will try to get a spare bone

@1Professor Is Bobbi Brown a man or a women? Thinking of Whitney Houston's ex- Husband. Is it him ?
