Brightening Blush in Blushed Peach and Blushed Burgundy
Each holiday Brightening Blush compact holds three coordinating shades in one pan, which can be worn individually or blended together. There are two shades: Blushed Peach and Blushed Burgundy. According to Bobbi Brown, the shimmering shades brighten the skin and the pearlescent powders add semi-transparent luminosity. Durbin Rock notes that the shades can also be used on the eyes.
Luxe Lipsticks and Extra Lip Tinted Balms
There are two Luxe Lipsticks: Neutral Rose, a beige nude, and Parisian Red, a classic red. According to Bobbi Brown, the satin formula hydrates for 10 hours, resists fading, feathering and smudging, and helps reduce the look of lip lines. Readers comparing Bobbi Brown lip formulas can also see the matte-finish Bobbi Brown Luxe Matte Liquid Lipstick.
The Extra Lip Tinted Balms come in Bare Rose and Bare Mahogany. The brand says the balm contains 84% skin-caring ingredients and has colour that adjusts to the lips' pH.
Luxe Shimmer Eyeshadow in Rose Illusion
The collection also includes a single Luxe Shimmer Eyeshadow in Rose Illusion, which Bobbi Brown describes as a seashell pink with a gold shift.
