Bobbi Brown Rich Lip Color in Uber Pink review + swatches

          There are moms and there are beauty blogger's moms. Even without my asking, my mom saved her brand new Bobbi Brown Uber Pink Rich Lip Color unused and in the box for weeks, just so I could photograph it for Cute and Mundane. Suffice it to say, moms are thoughtful and patient, even in the most unexpected ways. (Thanks Mom!).  Bobbi Brown is a line that both of us have enjoyed for quite some time. My mother has a lip palette of different Bobbi Brown lip colors and the pan she used up the fastest was Uber Pink Creamy Lip Color. When  Uber Pink was released as a Rich Lip Color in the Bobbi Brown Uber Basics Collection (Fall 2012) it made sense to purchase a tube.

           Bobbi Brown Rich Lip Color in Uber Pink is a natural light-medium pink. It runs on the warm end of the spectrum, without having really peachy or brown contributions. I've compared it below to a few other Bobbi Brown lipsticks in my collection. You can see that it's similar in tone to Bobbi Brown Lip Color in Blondie Pink and Bobbi Brown Rich Lip Color in Lilac. Bobbi Brown Blondie Pink is more brown. Bobbi Brown Lilac is much cooler and mauve. Bobbi Brown Rich Lip Color in Heather Pink is darker and browner.

           Bobbi Brown Rich Lip Color in Uber Pink is a pretty and very wearable color. The Rich Lip Color formula is creamy, comfortable, and pigmented; it's one of my favorites. I also appreciate the streamlined aesthetic of the matte and glossy black on black casing. While Uber Pink is a great fit for my mom, I'm looking forward to getting a tube of Rich Lip Color in Uber Beige, which is more 'me'. Thanks for reading! Did you pick up anything from the Bobbi Brown Uber Basics collection? Have you tried the Rich Lip Colors? What is your favorite basic pink?

Love, Dovey.
