It's not very often that a lipstick formula really wows me, most of them are lovely but nothing unique. The Bobbi Brown Crushed Lip Colors are unique. Very unique. They're unlike any other lipstick that I've ever used.
They feel like a balm, glide on smoothly and layer beautifully. One layer leaves a sheer, light tint. Two layers gives opaque coverage. Three layers give strong, bold coverage. No matter how many layers I apply, the feel is still smooth and balm like.
The color seems to melt into my lips, it doesn't look like I'm wearing a truckload of lipstick. One layer looks like a natural stain, as if I'd been eating fruit that had left a tint.
Crushed Lip Color in Sazan Nude, Lilac and Blackberry
The longevity is great, I get around six to seven hours wear and once the lipstick has worn off I'm left with a stain of color.
I find the Crushed Lip Color's to be very hydrating, I don't need to wear balm underneath and often wear them in place of lip balm. They feel almost weightless on my lips, like I'm wearing a light layer of lip balm. They have no discernible fragrance or flavor.
Bobbi Brown Crushed Lip Color Sazan Nude, Blackberry and Lilac
I now have three shades in the Crushed Lip Color collection and can see myself adding more soon. The shades I have are Sazan Nude (limited edition, so if you want it, get it before it's gone), Lilac and the famous (and very hard to get) Blackberry.
I can see why Blackberry is so popular, it's the perfect mix of maroon and brown.
Lilac is a gorgeous pop of pinky purple. It was the first shade I bought and the one that started my obsession with the Crushed Lip Colors.
Sazan Nude is a limited edition shade that is my perfect nude. It's one of the few nudes I can wear as it's a cool toned pink based nude.
