Bobbi Brown reinvents corals
This spring, New York makeup artist Bobbi Brown is solving a perennial makeup problem: Women who love colour but worry they’ll look too bright or chalky. So with her Cabana Corals collection arriving at Holt Renfrew and Murale in February, Bobbi uses modern formulas and juicy colours to make colour infinitely wearable.
“This spring, there is a beautiful selection of coral shades perfect for lips and cheeks,” says Brown. “The shade range spans from fresh new pink corals to universal nude corals to true coral shades – every woman can find the coral shade that’s right for her.” The collection is based around five coral lipsticks: three metallic and two matte shades. She’s added three more shimmer lip gloss shades in Sunset Beach, Golden Nectar and Coral Sand. And a new California Coral pot rouge. Of course, no Bobbi spring collection would be complete without a shimmer brick and this season she offers two new shades including Nectar and Pink Quartz.
