The Bobbi Brown Crushed Lip Colour in Pink performs as a versatile, comfortable lipstick designed for adaptable coverage. Its satin matte finish offers a modern aesthetic that isn't completely flat, providing a subtle sheen that looks natural and refined. The moisturizing feel ensures your lips remain supple, preventing the dry or tight sensation often associated with matte lipsticks.
Sheer Wash of Color: For a subtle, 'your lips but better' look, apply one light swipe directly to the center of your lips and gently press your lips together. You can also use your finger to lightly dab the color onto your lips for a very diffused effect.
Medium Intensity: For a more noticeable pop of pink, apply two to three swipes directly from the bullet. The color builds easily without feeling heavy or caking.
Intense Look: For maximum impact, apply several layers, ensuring even distribution. You can also use a lip brush for precise application and definition. For added longevity, blot with a tissue after the first layer and then apply a second.
This lipstick is particularly well-suited for a casual daytime look, brightening the face without being overpowering. Its buildable nature also makes it suitable for evening wear when layered for a more vibrant, striking pink.
Prep Your Lips: For the smoothest application and best finish, ensure your lips are exfoliated and hydrated. Apply a light lip balm a few minutes before applying the Crushed Lip Colour, then blot away any excess balm.
Define Your Edges: For a crisp look, especially with more intense application, consider using a lip liner in a matching or neutral shade before applying the lipstick.
Blotting Technique: To improve wear time and achieve a true satin matte, apply a layer, blot gently with a tissue, and then apply a second layer.
Office Appropriate: A single swipe provides a professional, understated touch of color.
Casual Outing: Two to three layers offer a fresh, cheerful look that complements a relaxed style.
Evening Event: Layered for full intensity, this pink can be a chic focal point, especially when paired with minimal eye makeup.
Your Bobbi Brown Crushed Lip Colour is ready for immediate use. Simply uncap and twist the base to reveal the product. No special setup is required.
Skin Types: This moisturizing formula is generally compatible with all skin types, including those prone to dryness, thanks to its comfortable feel.
Other Products: It pairs well with lip primers for extended wear and can be topped with a clear or complementary gloss for an altered finish, though this will change its signature satin matte look. It also works beautifully with lip liners for enhanced definition.
Storage: Store the lipstick in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures to maintain its texture and integrity. High heat can soften the product, making it prone to breaking or melting.
Hygiene: To prevent contamination, avoid sharing your lipstick. If you need to clean the surface of the bullet, gently wipe it with a clean tissue.
Cap Security: Always ensure the cap is securely replaced after each use to prevent the product from drying out or getting damaged.
