Bobbi Brown Natural Finish Long Lasting Foundation SPF 15

bb natural finish
Bobbi Brown never fails to impress with her foundation line. She has the best range of shades with yellow undertones to flatter all skin tones. (Especially mine!)

I’m so excited to share her newest oil-free foundation offering: Bobbi Brown Natural Finish Long Lasting Foundation SPF 15 (a sequel to the now discontinued Oil-Free Foundation).

The formula is made with sponge-like powders, which promise to absorb excess oil while relying on emollients to lock in moisture. The formula is transfer-resistant so heat and humidity don’t stand a chance.

This new oil-free foundation is perfect for oily skin, but is also a great foundation for normal/combination skin in warmer, more humid climates.

Available in TWENTY flattering shades:

  • Alabaster (00)
  • Porcelain (0)
  • Warm Ivory (1)
  • Sand (2)
  • Warm Sand (2.5)
  • Beige (3)
  • Cool Beige (3.25)
  • Warm Beige (3.5)
  • Natural (4)
  • Natural Tan (4.25)
  • Warm Natural (4.5)
  • Honey (5)
  • Warm Honey (5.5)
  • Golden (6)
  • Warm Almond (6.5)
  • Almond (7)
  • Warm Walnut (7.5)
  • Walnut (8)
  • Chestnut (9)
  • Espresso (10)

Bobbi Brown Natural Finish Long Lasting Foundation SPF 15 is available online at BobbiBrown.com for $45.

Daily Style: Cassia Headband

So many flower headbands all look the same – delicate, subtle and some variation of silk or satin.

I love this one despite the fact that it has none of the aforementioned qualities – the raw raffia and sharp look is natural and even a bit edgy. (Edgy in the realm of flowers, anyway!) I absolutely love this look!

Cassia Headband is available from Anthropologie for $88.

Chloé ‘Eau de Fleurs – Néroli’ Fragrance

chloe eau de fleurs neroli

While I have to admit, this bottle doesn’t thrill me to the extent of Chloé’s original fragrance, I’m willing to let it slide for the promise of what’s inside.

This scent “is modern and vibrant with Mandarin orange, rosemary and peony petals. It leaves a trail of tonka bean, cedar wood and white musk that covers the skin with an addictive sensation.” Uh, yes please!

A 3.4 oz. bottle of Chloé ‘Eau de Fleurs – Néroli’ Fragrance is available from Nordstrom for $135.
