Just when I thought I’d tried every new Bobbi Brown product for Summer of 2016, she releases even more things! Today I’m looking at her limited edition, re-release of Tube Tints ($23 for .5 oz). I bought two of the four available colors: Naked (“A nude brown”) and Telluride (“A flat plum”). Also available are Bare Shimmer (“A Champagne with Pearl”) and Twilight Shimmer (“A Pink brown with shimmer”).
Tube Tints are very similar to Bobbi Brown Lip Glosses in terms of consistency and depth of color. In fact, the only significant differences I can detect between Lip Gloss and Tube Tint is the packaging and application method and the smell. While her Lip Glosses carry a distinctively yummy vanilla scent, the Tube Tints carry a hint of classic lipstick scent, and are unflavored. Quick side ramble: I recently bought a Byredo Loose Lips candle, which is supposed to smell like a “classic lipstick.” It has notes of violet, orris root, powder, and rose. Loose Lips smells so much like the scent I detect from Tube Tints! I never would have put that together before burning Loose Lips.
Tube Tints are just as thick and tacky as Bobbi Brown Lip Glosses, which I like in a gloss. They also wear well due to that tackiness.
The shades Telluride and Naked are both very subtle when worn. I think I’d have been better off choosing one of the shimmer shades instead of Telluride and Naked together, because of how subtle and neutral they both are. Let’s take a look!
