The Bobbi Brown Crushed Lip Color is designed for everyday wear, providing both color and comfort. Its unique satin matte finish gives a modern, diffused look that can be customized. The 'Ruby' shade delivers a rich, classic red that can be adapted for various occasions.
For a Sheer, Blotted Look: Apply one light swipe directly to the lips. Gently blot with a tissue or dab with a fingertip to diffuse the color further and achieve a soft, stained effect.
For Medium Intensity: Apply 2-3 swipes, allowing the crushed pigments to build up. The comfortable glide ensures even coverage.
For Vibrant, Full-Coverage Color: Apply multiple layers until the desired intensity is reached. The formula builds beautifully without feeling heavy or caky. For a crisper edge, consider using a lip liner in a complementary shade before application.
Morning Rush: Its "swipe and go" nature makes it perfect for quick application when you're short on time.
All-Day Wear: The 8-hour wear claim holds up well for most daily activities, reducing the need for frequent touch-ups.
Comfort for Dry Lips: Even with a matte finish, the lip balm feel helps keep lips comfortable, making it suitable for those who often find matte lipsticks too drying.
Versatile Styling: The ability to layer means you can wear 'Ruby' as a subtle hint of red for daytime or build it up for a bold, statement lip in the evening.
No special setup is required for the Bobbi Brown Crushed Lip Color. Simply remove the cap and twist up the product as needed. For optimal application and wear, ensure your lips are smooth and hydrated. Lightly exfoliate if necessary.
Lip Liner: For extended wear and a sharper edge, pair with a lip liner that matches the 'Ruby' shade or your natural lip color.
Lip Prep: Can be worn over a very thin layer of lip balm if extra hydration is desired, but the product is formulated to be comfortable on its own.
Other Lip Products: While designed for a matte finish, a clear gloss can be dabbed onto the center of the lips for added dimension, though this will alter the intended finish.
Storage: Store the lipstick in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures to prevent melting or changes in consistency.
Hygiene: To maintain product integrity and hygiene, avoid sharing your lipstick. If you need to clean the surface, gently wipe with a clean tissue.
Application: Twist up only the amount of product needed to prevent breakage.
