The weather hasn't cooperated with me this week as I've tried to get swatch photos. By the time I got home from work yesterday, there were thick clouds obscuring the sun. I took photos anyhow, but was dissatisfied with them. Then, I looked out the window and saw sunshine. I nearly ran over Charlie to get back outside and get a few more photos. These will "do."
I swatched top to bottom in the shade order listed above. This is the order of the shades as shown in the palette from left to right. I caught the sixty seconds of overcast sun - just enough to get a photo that actually shows how pretty these shades are. I could not be happier with the palette!
I applied each lip color with the brush provided in the palette. It was the best way to get a concentrated application. I had tried using my finger, but I couldn't pick up enough color that way. The brush worked perfectly, so I would recommend that you use it to apply the lip colors if you want the full-on color.
I purchased my palette at Nordstrom. I'm sure that other Bobbi Brown counters and Bobbi's Web site will have it soon. The palette photo above came from the Bobbi Brown UK site. It was better than mine.
