Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Even Finish Compact Foundation Review

Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Even Finish Compact Foundation ($46) is basically an oil free liquid foundation in a solid compact form. I’ve heard amazing things about Bobbi Brown foundations so when I saw this being presented on QVC, I knew I had to at least try it. The nice thing about QVC is that you can send anything back within 30 days if you’re not completely satisfied.

This Bobbi Brown foundation comes packaged in a black plastic compact with flip top lid. Inside the lid you’ll find a mirror, while hidden underneath the foundation is an application sponge. I’ve had good luck with compact foundations before, especially when applied with my Sigma F80 flat top kabuki, so I have not used the sponge at all.

One thing that held me back from trying anything Bobbi Brown is the price of their products. So this 7 piece collection is a great value which prompted me to take the plunge.
