News about Bobbi Brown

HANNAH BETTS: Lip liner has a dubious reputation among women over 40. Back in the 1990s, Linda ­Evangelista and her fellow glamazons wouldn't get out of bed without MAC Spice Lip Pencil (now £20, boots.com), which was a tawny, dark ­apricot colour. This so-called 'supermodel lip' ­morphed into a harsh, exaggerated, unblended liner contrasting with whatever lipstick or - shriek! - frosted gloss was in use. As a result, many older make-up ­lovers resist any hint of pencil, ­anxious not to replicate the brash, OTT ­kissers of our teens - or succumb to the dense, grubbily contoured pouts of the Kardashian sorority.

From Fortnum & Mason to Boots, these are the best advent calendars for Christmas 2024.

Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, few would have bet that privacy-conscious Prince Harry would end up spending his 40th birthday in ­Montecito, this gleaming Valhalla in Santa Barbara County for the rich and famous, this jewel on the American Riviera where another perfect summer is softly ­drawing to a close.

The Duchess of Sussex, 42, has often opted for floor-length garments over the past six years - most recently wearing a pair of £360 trousers to a business summit in the Hamptons over the weekend (left). For the occasion, the mother-of-two - who is preparing to launch her lifestyle brand American Riviera Orchard - paired the beige linen trousers with a matching single-breasted waistcoat, which is also by the Australian brand St Agni. At one point, Meghan posed for photos with makeup mogul Bobbi Brown and fashion designer Misha Nonoo - and fans noticed the Duchess' feet were totally obscured by her trousers. Speaking to FEMAIL, celebrity stylist Rochelle White claimed Meghan's trousers were likely to be a free sample from St Agni and therefore not possible to alter to her 5ft 6in frame. What's more, stylist Giorgina Ramazzotti also claimed that Meghan could be seen as too 'controversial' a figure to get free samples from some major fashion houses.

Meghan Markle was joined by old and new friends as she stepped out at a business summit in The Hamptons on Saturday. The Duchess of Sussex , 42, was pictured alongside two of her long-time pals, make-up artist and entrepreneur Bobbi Brown and designer Misha Nonoo at the G9 Ventures Summer Summit hosted by power broker Amy Griffin.

According to Page Six, Meghan had flown into the millionaires enclave from Santa Barbara by private jet with entrepreneur Jamie, who was keen to praise the Duchess on her Instagram account following the event. Sharing a sweet photo of Meghan sitting next to her and holding onto her arm, she wrote on her Stories: 'Love this pic because it captures the essence of friendship. Thank you Meg for being such a supportive and loving friend...'

Make-up artist up artist Marina Sandoval, whom Camilla hired 15 years ago, is credited with enhancing the royal's increasingly glamorous appearance. At this year's Wimbledon Championships, the wife of King Charles's was seen applying a Tom Ford Lip Colour in Indian Rose from the royal box on centre court. The medium-dark mauve hue perfectly complemented Camilla's glowing complexion. For 35 years, she has entrusted her trademark blonde bob to Mayfair colourist, Jo Hansford. Additionally, the royal, 76, has maintained a longstanding collaboration with nail and make-up artist, Marina Sandoval, whom she hired 15 years ago.

Gen Z's latest TikTok obsession is make-up 'blindness'. This is where users post self-deprecating images of looks they used to consider perfection, yet now look unhinged. It started with 'brow blindness' (136.2 million posts on TikTok) showcasing vast, blocky, black caterpillars. Now 'blush blindness' is catching up - at 41.3 million views of women with throbbing, neon painted faces. For decades, blusher has been an afterthought, lagging behind contour and bronzer. However, it's now seizing centre stage. And at 53, I'm rushing to over-blush with the best of them.

The royals are renowned for their impeccably groomed appearances, but the methods they use to maintain them are often kept confidential. One princess adores a bee venom, placenta protein and 24-carat gold cream, which is currently discounted from £750 to £95. Another royal wore a fragrance reminiscent of her would-be mother-in-law's favourite scent when she first met her Prince Charming. And one revered monarch couldn't live without her cherished nail polish, which was personally requested by her hairdresser.

Lips have been front and centre over the last few years when it comes to beauty trends. From plumping lip oils to the reemergence of lip pencils, there's no doubt we've been giving our pouts plenty of attention. As we enter the summer and the hope of warmer weather, you may be considering putting away your lipstick for a few months — sweat and smeared lipstick is not an ideal situation — but do not fear I have the ideal alternative for you. Enter the lip tint, this new hybrid lipstick, lip stain and lip balm is the ultimate summer must-have. It has the appearance of a sheer lipstick but with the added benefit of skincare ingredients to ensure your lips stay hydrating and the sheer finish means you won't end up with a stained chin if things get a bit too hot. I have made the switch to a lip tint from my trusted nude lipstick and I don't think I will ever go back. Not only does a lip tint add a hint of colour the textures are *chef's kiss*. Most of the products contain hardworking ingredients that make you want to apply all day long.

I spoke to the two leading makeup artists, Bobbi Brown and Aimee Connolly to talk us through what a lip tint is, how to apply one and why this could be the multi-tasking product you need right now.

Inge van Lotringen (left) can't bear looking exhausted - so much so that I've just gone under the knife, having spent years plucking up the courage to do so. But I also know plenty of bright-eye tricks, many of which I use religiously. So what works? I've tested more options than most. In short: make-up can work wonders, eye creams do very little, and non-surgical 'tweakments' can be an investment that pays off for your under-eyes - but not so much for your upper eyelids. Here's my pick of beauty's best eye openers.

'I've had a tough year so far: my husband was very ill and he died a few months ago. I haven't had any time for myself. I've been on autopilot and barely even thought about what I'm wearing. So I'm looking forward to seeing how someone else will dress me, and having the chance to try out clothes that are more colourful and feminine than I've worn up until now.'

Problem 'Next year is my 45th wedding anniversary and my husband David and I are going to renew our vows. The night before the ceremony we're having a meal with family and friends and I want an outfit that will impress everyone.

I've been retired for 23 years, so I'm not seeing other people's outfits every day like I did when I was working. I feel out of the loop when it comes to fashion, so I usually just stick on a shirt and trousers. I'd love to try a dress and look more feminine

'I've recently had treatment for breast cancer, which means my body has really changed. There's the physical differences, like my mastectomy, and my hair, which is now really short.

The cosmetics behemoth announced layoffs on Monday morning, causing stock prices to soar by up to 16 percent in pre-market trading. It is part of the company's mass restructuring, which includes Bobbi Brown, Clinique, and The Ordinary.

In the current financial year, this is expected to cost £2.5 million, but if you're looking for a unique way to save £21 million by March 2025. Cruddas and his wife Fiona's shares appreciated 18.2%, or 24.2p, to 157p, raising more than £40 million to the value of the shares owned by the two firms.
