Bobbi Brown Luxe Lip Color
Bobbi Brown Luxe Lip Color

Bobbi Brown Bahama Brown Luxe Lip Color ($35.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a muted, medium rosy mauve with warm undertones and a cream finish. The texture was smooth, lightly creamy and glided across the lips without tugging or dragging. It yielded opaque coverage in a single stroke, and despite the slip, the edges were quite crisp and even without work. On my lips, the formula felt hydrating over the five hours this shade lasted for. I noticed very slight color settled into my lip lines after four hours of wear.

Bobbi Brown Uber Rose Luxe Lip Color ($35.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a medium-dark plum with subtle, cool undertones and a creamy, lightly glossy finish. This shade had a really smooth, creamy texture that applied rich, opaque coverage comfortably. It’s the kind of formula you can apply half-asleep, because it’s rather effortless. It had fully opaque pigmentation that went on evenly and lasted for five hours on me. Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Plush (DC, $17.00) is lighter, warmer (90% similar).

Bobbi Brown Tahiti Pink Luxe Lip Color ($35.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a bright, medium pink with warmer undertones and a lightly glossy finish. The texture was more slippery compared to other shades, and it didn’t have the same cream-like look applied–this had subtle translucency and I would get “lines” if I pressed my lips together. I also noticed that color gathered in my lip lines right away, which did worsen over time. The color itself lasted for six hours, left a pinkish stain behind, and was hydrating. NARS Greta (P, $34.00) is brighter, cooler (90% similar). MAC Impassioned (P, $19.00) is lighter (85% similar). Maybelline Vivid Rose (DC, $7.99) is cooler (90% similar).

Formula Overview

Bobbi Brown Luxe Lip Color ($35.00 for 0.12 oz.) is supposed to have one-stroke color coverage with a hydrating, smoothing formula, and “nourishing shine.” I was impressed with the formula as a whole, as the majority of the shades were very pigmented in one pass with a creamy consistency that glided on easily. There’s a richness to the texture that does feel more “luxe” in a way. The natural-to-luminous shine level gives lips a smoother, plumper look, while the formula itself is hydrating and many shades are longer wearing. I noticed that the lighter shades tended to perform more poorly relative to more light-medium to medium-dark-hued shades. There was a faint floral scent (that was a surprise, I wish they had gone the unscented!), but I didn’t have issues with taste and found it very subtle on (it’s no Dior/Chanel-level scent!). In general, I like Bobbi Brown’s lipstick formulas, and this one feels creamier and more hydrating than others, but for pigmentation, you can’t go wrong with this or the Rich Lip Color formula.

As much as I love Bahama Brown (how predictable!), I am all duped up with it: MAC So Select and Cosmo, UD Liar, probably others if I stop to think about it.
As for Tahiti Pink, I’ll be getting UD Checkmate instead. Tried it on in Ulta when I was there buying up those $11 Revolution lip glosses, and people were actually stopping me to ask what I had on because they loved it ! It’s apparently a win!
That leaves Uber Rose. Oh my. That one looks incredible! I have been wanting either UD Crisis or Tampered, but this one is going to give those some serious competition!
