FAQs

Is this a traditional matte lipstick?

The Bobbi Brown Crushed Lip Colour offers a 'blotted-down, matte finish' which is best described as a satin-matte. It provides a soft, diffused look rather than the completely flat, sometimes drying, finish of a traditional matte lipstick.

Can I get a glossy finish with this product?

While it has a satin-matte finish, you can easily layer a clear or complementary colored lip gloss over the Bobbi Brown Crushed Lip Colour to achieve a more luminous or glossy effect.

How long does the color typically last on the lips?

This lip colour is formulated to last and resist feathering for up to 8 hours. Please note that individual wear time may vary depending on factors like eating, drinking, and your personal lip chemistry.

Does this product feel heavy or sticky on the lips?

No, it is designed to have the 'feel of a lip balm', providing comfortable, lightweight wear due to its 'lip-loving ingredients'. It is neither heavy nor sticky.

Is the Bobbi Brown Crushed Lip Colour hydrating?

Yes, it is described as combining the 'feel of a lip balm' with lipstick and contains 'lip-loving ingredients' to ensure comfortable wear without drying out your lips.

Is this suitable for everyday wear, or just special occasions?

Absolutely, it's perfect for everyday wear. Its 'swipe-and-go' application and comfortable, buildable formula make it versatile enough for both daily use and more dressed-up occasions, depending on the intensity of application.

What does 'crushed pigments' mean in this product?

'Crushed pigments' refers to the finely milled color particles within the formula. These pigments provide rich, vibrant color payoff that can be layered to achieve varied intensity, from a sheer stain to a bold and opaque finish.

Troubleshooting

Color appears too sheer or not vibrant enough.

The Crushed Lip Colour is designed for buildable coverage. For a more intense color payoff, apply additional layers until the desired vibrancy is reached.

My lips feel dry after extended wear, despite the balm-like feel.

While formulated to be comfortable, ensure your lips are well-hydrated before application. Regularly exfoliate your lips to remove dry skin and consider applying a nourishing lip balm as part of your nightly routine.

The product doesn't seem to last the full 8 hours as described.

Longevity can vary based on individual activities like eating, drinking, and your unique lip chemistry. To maximize wear, avoid oily foods and drinks, and try to blot your lips lightly after application to set the color.

Application isn't as smooth as expected.

Dry or chapped lips can affect smooth application. Gently exfoliate your lips to remove any flakes or dry patches before applying. Ensure your lips are moisturized but not greasy.

Pros and Cons

  • Comfortable, hydrating, and lightweight feel on the lips
  • Buildable color intensity allows for versatile looks
  • Long-lasting wear for up to 8 hours without frequent reapplication

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup and Application

  1. Prepare Lips: For the smoothest application and best wear, ensure your lips are clean and gently exfoliated. A smooth canvas prevents the color from settling into dry patches.
  2. Sheer Application: For a subtle tint and the signature 'blotted-down' look, apply one layer directly to your bare lips. Gently blot with a tissue if desired to further diffuse the color.
  3. Intense Application: For a bolder, more opaque red, apply several layers until the desired color intensity is achieved. The buildable formula allows you to control the depth of color.
  4. Optional Liner: While the formula resists feathering, you can use a matching lip liner for extra definition if you prefer a very precise edge, especially with a bold red shade.

Compatibility

  • Lip Primers: For maximum wear and an even smoother base, apply a lip primer before the Crushed Lip Colour.
  • Lip Gloss: To transform the satin-matte finish into a more luminous or glossy look, layer a clear or complementary colored lip gloss over the top.
  • Makeup Looks: This versatile shade and finish pair well with a wide range of makeup styles, from minimalist to full glam.

Care

  • Storage: Store your Bobbi Brown Crushed Lip Colour in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, to maintain its texture and integrity.
  • Secure Cap: Always ensure the cap is securely closed after each use to prevent the product from drying out and to protect it from dust or debris.
