I love my "Slap and Dash"




This weekend I purchased the new Bobbi Brown Moisturizing Cream Compact foundation. The salesperson was so amusing and she told me it was good for "Slap and Dash". My friends, Karrie and Carol, also liked this description. We are all "slap and dash" kind of people since we are busy moms on the go.

This woman was right! This stuff is great. It is very hard to mess up because it is so light. But don't worry for those of you with problem areas, you can always add a little dab of their correcting cream. Also, you can build it up and make it a little more concealing for an evening look.

The texture was smooth and moisturizing and had staying power all day long. So far, it has not made me break out but I have only used it for a few days. It comes in several colors with one for you! I got "Sand" but might need "light ivory" for winter. She suggested that you keep the darker color in the refrigerator during the winter so it will last until next summer. Very clever!

What the website says:

This unique emollient compact formula provides all-day wear and all-day moisturization, as it instantly softens the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and delivers a soft, radiant finish. Formulated for normal to dry skin, this foundation is blended with ingredients that prevent dehydration such as Jojoba Oil and Avocado Oil—both moisturize and condition skin. This creamy product provides medium to full coverage, and is a portable alternative to your liquid foundation and a more moisturizing alternative to traditional compact foundations.

Tips from Trisha

My sweet friend Trisha is a makeup junkie just like me. Here are some Bobbi Brown products she recommends:

The first one is something that everyone can use and it is listed as an "Allure" 2007 Best of Beauty Award Winner. It is called "Tinted Lip Balm". Trisha tried it in Golden pink and said it lasts a long time, has the perfect amount of color and is easy to put on even when you don't have a mirror!


This unique formula offers deep moisturization and sheer color that lasts longer than most. With a portable newly designed metal case, Tinted Lip Balm offers finger-free and mess-free application. It is available in a range of beautiful shades – every shade works for almost anyone! $18.00

The next product is one that Trisha has been using for years. It was recently Awarded: "Elle" ‘Genius Award’ (April 2008), "In Style" 'Best Beauty Buy' (2008), and "Allure" ‘Reader's Choice Award’ (2008). Wow! This stuff must be good!
Their popular long-wearing eyeliner offers the precision of liquid liner and the ease of a gel-based formula. This Fall, try water-resistant Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner in NEW Black Mauve Shimmer Ink, a black mauve infused with bronze and gold pearl pigments.

To use it they suggest to dip the tip of an ultra fine eyeliner brush into the gel formulae and wipe off the excess before applying to the eye. Work quickly as product becomes transfer-resistant once dry. To remove, use makeup remover that is gentle enough for the eyes.
