The Bobbi Brown + Tibi Peony & Python Collection Puts the Squeeze on Purple and Pink - Makeup and Beauty Blog

One mean solar day final year during a trip to the Philippines my parents trekked deep into the heart of the jungle on a tour to see a massive python (their thought of a practiced time), but when they finally located the legendary beast, it turned out to be and then desensitized to tourists that it practically posed for the cameras.

When they returned dwelling house to California and showed me the pictures, I withal couldn't bear to await at them without shivering. You meet, I'chiliad one of those girls averse to creepy crawly things…even tame ones that work in the tourism industry. 🙂

Needless to say, I was on the proverbial python fence virtually the theme of Bobbi Brown's newest makeup collection, Peony & Python. A collaboration with wear line Tibi, the leap collection slithers onto counters next month (but it's already available online).

Snakes and flowers? — the pairing seemed a little out there to me, then I did some digging. Turns out that New York-based Tibi oftentimes incorporates contrasting elements into their clothing designs — masculine and feminine, bold and muted, youthful and sophisticated/mature.

Afterwards spending some time with Peony & Python, I remember I see what Bobbi and Tibi were shooting for because the products are both sugariness and sinister, ranging from sheer to opaque in pigmentation, with delicate colors dancing alongside harder-edged shades.

The seven-slice express edition collection's color palette blooms with purple, gray, plum, pink, taupe and mauve. It includes a printed makeup instance (come across the snake pare pattern?), an eyeshadow palette, a lip gloss, two mascaras, one lipstick and a kit for face up, eyes and cheeks (exclusive to Neiman Marcus).

A few more than notes on the collection…

• Peony & Python Palette ($50) — While I like the print and the wait of the case, the zipper'south difficult to open up and close. The darker shadows — Plum Orchid (a matte plum) and Eclipse (a matte black) — apply opaque, while the rest of the shadows are sheer. I happen to like that about them considering I think it makes them like shooting fish in a barrel to alloy in a hurry. But to achieve a bolder heart look, it as well means having to spend the time to layer. A cute and useful palette, merely it'due south quite spendy, too. MAKEUP AND BEAUTY Weblog RATING: B
• Peony & Python Collection Exclusively at Neiman Marcus ($95) — This six-piece sub-set up includes the Ultra Fine Eyeliner Brush, Mini Face Blender Brush brushes, Pinkish Peony Illuminating Bronzer, Black Mauve Shimmer Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner, Pink Lilac Brightening Lip Gloss and a matching zilch-upwardly conveying pouch. The standouts to me are the Bronzer (such a delicate pink affluent!) and Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner (an unusual purplish black). The price gives me tummy trouble, but dice-difficult Bobbi and/or Tibi fans might still want to splurge. MAKEUP AND Beauty Weblog RATING: B
• Pale Peony Rich Color Gloss ($22) — This unscented, unflavored purplish pinkish gloss delicately shines on the lips. I can encounter myself wearing this thick and sticky lippie with royal and taupe eye looks all the time, but I sure wish Bobs had thrown in a trivial more production for the toll. MAKEUP AND Dazzler Weblog RATING: B+
• Lilac Rich Lip Color SPF 12 ($22) — A full-coverage creamy majestic lipstick that feels deliciously light on my lips. Similar the Pale Peony Rich Color Gloss, it's besides unscented and unflavored. MAKEUP AND Dazzler BLOG RATING: B+
• Lash Glamour Farthermost Lenthening Mascara in Plum ($24) — You know me and my obsession with drag queen lashes. 🙂 This mascara lengthens and thickens well, but it still has some room to grow (plow up that drama, Bobs! WAY up). I do like the plummy colour, though, and that it really shows up on my lashes. MAKEUP AND Dazzler Blog RATING: B
