7 Of The Best Bobbi Brown Cosmetics Gifts We Love
Created in partnership with BOBBI BROWN & JOHN LEWIS & PARTNERS
FOR EYESHADOW FANS
All Aglow Long-Wear Cream Shadow Stick Makeup Gift Set, £75
Bobbi Brown’s Long-Wear Cream Shadow Sticks are bestsellers for a reason. With a buttery soft texture, they’re so easy to apply and blend for a simple yet impactful smokey eye. This set houses both matte and shimmer shades that layer together nicely and are ideal for day and night. It also includes the brand’s iconic Smokey Eye Mascara. All the colours are proven to last for up to 24 hours with no smudging – and the pigment payoff is seriously impressive.
Top Tip: “Glide these shadow sticks along your lid and blend them out from the lash line upwards to create a softly diffused smokey eye. Finish your eyes with the Smokey Eye Mascara. I recommend starting in the middle of your lash line and pulling the wand upwards using the flat side. Then, create a fluttery effect with the tip of the wand – pull lashes outwards at the inner and outer corners.” – Zara Findlay, Bobbi Brown's senior make-up artist

FOR ALL MAKE-UP LOVERS
Best Of Artistry 5 Piece Brush Gift Set, £85
Every year Bobbi Brown releases a brush set and it never disappoints. Neat and compact, but with all the right essentials, it’s a well-curated crowd-pleaser – especially for those wanting a full collection to nail their looks. It’s also a great way to try the brand’s bestselling brushes at a lower price. Inside you’ll find its Full Coverage Face Brush, Eye Smudge Brush, Smokey Eyeliner Brush, Eye Blender Brush and its Sheer Powder Brush.

FOR YOUR SECRET SANTA
Bobbi Brown Confetti Crush Lip Trio, £35
Available in two shades (nude and pink), this compact lip trio is great for your secret Santa or as a stocking filler. It includes the much-loved Crushed Oil-Infused Gloss and Crushed Lip Color, both of which last for hours and impart comfortable colour that cushions the lips. Though small, each one will last you for months as a little goes a long way. There’s plenty to choose from, but the ‘Pink’ shade set is a safe bet, given the colours suit all skin tones.

FOR ANYONE WHO LOVES A NATURAL GLOW
Luxe Cheek & Highlight Palette, £48
From the gold packaging to the three flattering shades inside, every element of this Bobbi Brown palette has been carefully thought through. The three colours suit all skin tones and they’re so beautifully sheer you can build them up to your desired intensity. Each one gives your skin a healthy, warm flush, while the soft, shimmery flecks add a luminous touch.
Top Tip: “Use this palette to add structure and depth to your face and eyes. You can use the shades individually or altogether with a big, fluffy brush. If using the bronze, warm tones, apply them with a brush onto your forehead and take a ‘backward 3’ approach – across the forehead, onto the cheeks and then down onto your jawline. It gives subtle warmth that still looks natural.” – Zara

FOR THOSE WHO LOVE A SMOKEY EYE
Disco Drama Limited Edition Eyeshadow Palette, £42
This is the ultimate smokey eye palette for those wanting a look that’s soft and natural. It works hard for both day and night with soft taupes, beiges and a deep burgundy that offers a nice take on traditional black. The soft, smooth textures blend nicely too, never creasing or caking as the day wears on. Play with a few shades, and blend and mix at will, or layer up singularly for a more muted effect.
Available here.
FOR THE HARD TO PLEASE
Essentials Limited Edition Makeup Gift Set, £82
If you’re buying for a fussy recipient, you won’t go wrong with this does-it-all set which is available exclusively at John Lewis. The velvety pouch is enough on its own – large in size, it’s ideal for trips away and for stashing all beauty products inside. Then you have the products, which would normally be £166 on offer at £82, making this a great way to try some of Bobbi Brown bestsellers – including its bestselling Vitamin Enriched Face Base, Long-Wear Cream Shadow Sticks, Crushed Oil-Infused Gloss, Smokey Eye Mascara and Soothing Cleansing Oil.

FOR SKINCARE FANATICS
Primed To Party Vitamin Enriched Face Base Duo Skincare Gift Set, £78
A cult classic, Bobbi Brown’s Vitamin Enriched Face Base was intended to be more of a moisturiser. Then make-up artists started using it as a primer – they found a range of products adhered well to its silky-smooth texture. Again, a little goes a long way, so you can use it sparingly, but if you’re after a little more nourishment, this is a must-try and we love that the set houses two, so you’re never without. Squalane and vitamins B, C and E all flood the skin with moisture – while shea butter leaves behind a soft sheen that shows through any foundation you apply on top.
Top Tip: “If you want a look that’s natural, glow-y and budge-proof, you need to prep your skin well. Bobbi Brown’s Vitamin Enriched Face Base moisturises and primes all at once. Take the time to really massage it into your skin ahead of applying any make-up to let it settle, so everything can glide on smoothly.” – Zara
