The New Bobbi Gloss
My fondest memory of Bobbi Brown lipgloss dates back to when I was 16 and getting my makeup done for the prom. I had stopped by the Nordstrom counter and asked for something just a bit richer than my natural color. Amy, the Bobbi Brown artist, pulled out a gloss in ‘Scoop Sugar’ and I was instantly hooked. It made my lips look full, brightened my complexion, brought together my entire makeup look and made me feel gorgeous. That day, I had spent $17 on a pair of silver sandals, and $18 on my first tube of Bobbi Brown gloss.
A month later, I went back to the mall to repurchase only to be devastated to find out that ‘Scoop Sugar’ was limited edition, sold out, and never to return. I asked friends to search their local stores and set up my first eBay account for the sole purpose of stalking down whatever tubes were still left in the world. Of course, since then I’ve branched out, tried and loved many different glosses, but I will always remember Bobbi Brown Scoop Sugar to be my first makeup obsession.
Now 8 years later, I’ve returned to Bobbi Brown and their reformulated line of lipglosses to find something new to obsess about. Bobbi’s Rich Color Gloss is everything I’ve always loved about their glosses- but even better! They’ve finally done away with the questionable brush (I always felt like I lost too much product using that old brush) and replaced with a sponge applicator. They’ve also upgraded the texture of the product. It’s so lightweight and moisturizing now that it feels like a I’m just wearing a balm (the old glosses did tend to “sit” on top of my lips- whereas this formulation does not). My favorite gloss of the moment? Pink Buff, a better-than natural shade which brings me back to my Scoop Sugar days!
