The Bobbi Brown Crushed Lip Colour in Italian Rose is designed for effortless application and comfortable wear throughout the day. Its unique balm-like texture glides smoothly, making it suitable for quick touch-ups without a mirror.
For a Sheer Tint: Apply one swipe directly to bare lips for a soft, diffused wash of color. Pat lightly with a finger to blend and achieve a 'blotted' effect.
For Medium Coverage: Apply two to three swipes, allowing the color to build up to your desired intensity. The formula remains lightweight even with multiple layers.
Defining Your Lips: For more precision or a polished look, you can outline your lips with a neutral or brown lip liner before applying. This also helps prevent feathering.
Everyday Elegance: The Italian Rose shade is perfect for daily wear, adding a touch of natural sophistication to your look.
Quick Desk-to-Dinner Transition: Easily build up the color from a sheer daytime tint to a more noticeable evening shade by adding extra layers.
Pairing: This brown shade pairs well with natural eye makeup for a balanced look, or with a smoky eye for a bolder statement.
Upon first use, simply uncap the lipstick and twist the base to reveal the product. No special setup is required.
This lip color is generally compatible with most lip primers, lip balms, and lip liners. For best results, ensure your lips are smooth and hydrated before application.
Storage: Store the Crushed Lip Colour in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. Keep the cap securely closed to prevent the product from drying out or getting damaged.
Hygiene: To maintain hygiene, avoid sharing your lipstick. If applying directly from the bullet, consider wiping the top layer periodically with a clean tissue.
Prevent Breakage: Do not twist the product up too far past the case to avoid accidental breakage during application or when recapping.
