Novato never hustles and bustles like San Francisco does. It’s a sleepy village compared to the city.
In the city, everything moves so fast! often when I see I feel like a fish battling up stream, or like I’m a raft caught in a current, absolutely out of control.

And then, suddenly, something — often it’s vibrant crocheted animal hats — stops me in my tracks!
Other times, it’s a window display with sparkly butterflies that have glittery wings.
Today at Saks fifth Avenue in the city, it was Bobbi brown because — ohmigosh! — they have so lots of new things out for spring.

The Brighten, shimmer & glow Collection
Like the Brighten, shimmer & glow collection, with its mix of brand new and previously released products.
I’m especially thinking about these new Brightening deal with Powders ($50 each), which are available in all kind of crazy colors! Like, one of them has pastels in it, with blue and yellow and green pans, and another one has purples and pinks and mauves.
My first thought? That these were eyeshadow palettes, but they’re actually products for your face.
Chi lo sapeva?
Alexandra and Whittany (hi, gals!), two makeup artists I chatted with at the Bobbi brown counter, broke it down for me. For a subtle glow, they suggested swirling the colors together with a brush, and then buffing the blend around your face.
Apparently, using highlighter around the deal with is a big pattern for spring, as a few different makeup artists pointed out it today at Saks.
Another spring trend? bright under-eyes — a look you can get with Bobbi’s new $30 tinted Eye Brighteners from the collection.
Oh, and I can’t forget about the shimmer Eyeshadows, which for the most part are re-promotes here, with the exception of Gold Star, the one new spring shade.
Alexandra had a good shimmer Eyeshadow tip. She stated that when you’re applying them, utilize a rigid clean instead of your fingers, because the oils on your skin can make them harden.
The amazing Lilac Long-Wear Eye Collection
In other news, the amazing Lilac Long-Wear Eye Collection, a Saks fifth Avenue spring exclusive, also looks quite amazing (pun intended)…
The $46 four-piece set includes a full-sized Caviar Ink Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner, a long wear cream shadow in amazing Lilac, a deluxe-sized sample of Bobbi’s Cleansing Oil, and a dual-ended brush.
The Retouching Powders
Then there are the $36 Retouching Powders, and these look truly neat. That’s four of the six shades visualized above.
In a nutshell, these look kinda like setting powders, but they’re not. They’re all-over deal with powders to right and brighten the skin.
After applying your foundation and your routine powder (doing this first makes it much easier to apply the Retouching Powders), dust a Retouching Power on top.
The white shade, the one created for fair skin, brightens and cuts down on redness. The yellow shade, which must work with a lot of skin tones, also assists eliminate redness. For darker skin tones, there’s the brown shade, with its hint of brightening rose. and then the pink shade can actually be utilized as a blush, although it’s meant to be used around the face, and must work well for guys/gals who don’t have a great deal of yellow tones in their skin.
The Full-Coverage deal with clean and sheer Powder Brush
If you’re believing about choosing up a Retouching Powder, consider also snagging one or two of Bobbi’s new brushes.
I’ve got my eye on the Full-Coverage deal with Brush, which is the one with the shorter manage and fuller clean head.
It’s $42 and has a few of the softest bristles (synthetic fibers) around! “Aww! feels like my Tabby’s fur!”
Use it to apply loose powders, pressed powders, liquid products, and generally anything.
Hello, clean lust…
Now, if you’re just after a truly light dusting of powder, there’s also Bobbi’s sheer Powder clean (also $42), which Whittany and Alexandra highly suggested for utilize with any of the Retouching Powders.
THe Long-Wear cream shadow Sticks
Doop-da-doo, moving ideal along — OH! So, I kinda freaked out when I saw the new Long-Wear cream shadow Sticks, which weren’t even out on display (they’re that new). Alexandra pulled them out of a trick squirrel drawer.
They’re $28 each, are available in eight shades, have OFF-THE-CHAIN pigmentation and are a lot more water resistant than a wetsuit. utilize ’em as bases for powder eyeshadow, or by themselves.
I’ve got my eye on a few of the jewel-toned colors… They’re so rich!
Extra Hand Cream
Which reminds me — did you understand that Bobbi has a hand cream? Non ne avevo idea. Her extra Hand cream moisturizes and exfoliates dry paws to make them even softer. It takes in quickly, too, and smells a bit like oranges.
Yum!
