I really love the new Bobbi Brown HOT collection created in collaboration with the brand’s beautiful new face, Kate Upton. I showed you all the Sheer Lip Colours and Art Sticks last week, and today is the turn of the beautiful new Bobbi Brown Cheek Palettes. I have it in shade Calypso and it’s a total winner!

It’s a super sleek palette with 3 different powders.

Bobbi Brown Cheek Palette Shades

So this is all about a natural looking approach to highlighting the cheeks. There are 2 blush shades – one softer and one more poppy – accompanied by a pearlescent highlighter. The idea is that you use the soft shade over the cheeks and then use the other blush for a pop of colour on the apples. You then finish with the highlighting shade along the top of the cheek bones and you should have Bobbi’s signature ‘just pinched’ cheek look and a healthy, lifted effect.

Here’s my attempt (apologies for the lack of eye makeup!):

I absolutely love this effect. Here’s a closer look at the palette.

From left to right we have, Pretty Coral Blush (bright), Calypso Highlight (shimmer), and Coral Sugar Blush (neutral). The textures are super soft and easily blendable and this combination of shades is really youthful.

So happy with my palette! The other Bobbi Brown Cheek Palette shades are Pink and Berry which also look gorgeous! They cost £34 and are available HERE at Selfridges and HERE at Debenhams.
