Bobbi Brown Candy Apple, Tahiti, Cranberry Crushed Shine Jelly Sticks Reviews & Swatches
Candy Apple
Bobbi Brown Candy Apple Crushed Shine Jelly Stick ($29.00 for 0.1 oz.) is a brighter, pinky-red that looked almost more pink-coral when applied paired with a soft shine. It had sheer to semi-sheer color coverage that was buildable to medium coverage, which was as described.
The texture was a lightweight, thin balm that had a touch of slip but was less emollient than one might expect, though it didn’t tug during application. It wore well for three and a half hours and felt lightly hydrating over time.

Formula Overview
$29.00/0.1 oz. - $290.00 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to have "sheer, moisture-packed color" that yields a "popsicle tint" with a "soft shine finish." The formula felt like a more emollient version of their Crushed Lip Color, as it was more yielding but still not as emollient in feel going on as one might expect. It was rather balm-like, thin but not clingy, and didn't slide around too much.
They had sheer to semi-sheer, tinted color that did look "popsicle" like with some of the mid-depth and deeper shades. For the most part, the colors applied evenly, smoothly without tugging, and didn't emphasize my lip texture or catch on imperfections. They wore between two and four hours and were lightly hydrating.

Tahiti
Bobbi Brown Tahiti Crushed Shine Jelly Stick ($29.00 for 0.1 oz.) is a medium-dark fuchsia pink with subtle, cool undertones and a natural sheen. It had sheer to semi-sheer coverage that built up to medium with a second layer. The product had a smooth, more gliding consistency that didn’t feel that wet but rather a little firm in the tube, but as the product adhered to my lips, it felt a little emollient. This shade stayed on well for three hours and felt lightly moisturizing over time.

The shades look lovely, Tahiti in particular.
Candy Apple looks so perfect for spring! Very fresh, lovely looking lip color.
Love Cranberry, too. Again, just very clean, fresh shade.
I need another lip product like I need a hole in the head, but these Jelly Sticks are awesome. I hope they stick around long enough for me to purchase in a post-pandemic world.
Cranberry is a gorgeous shade that would be wonderful to wear post pandemic…..
Huh, Cranberry looks pretty impressively even for a darker shade this sheer. That’s neat.
Nice! Looks like I’ve found some new “Zoom” lippies! Thanks to so many Zoom calls, I’ve put on a full face every day.
