Anybody rate Bobbi Brown makeup?

I'm in the market for some new makeup. I don't wear much and won't wear a lot. I am outdoors every day and in the rain sometimes too for quite a while. There's no point in anything much those days.

I have always fancied Bobbi Brown makeup but for some unknown reason I never bought any! Maybe I associated it as a product for women with older skin. Don't know why! Now I'm going to basically start from scratch with makeup, I'm thinking of the brand. My skin has large pores, is white and thin so basically red and blue with some pink, and I'm in perimenopause. My main goal is to have light makeup that can even out all the skin colours when I want to. I do not like the feeling of layers of makeup.

Would the Bobbi Brown counter be a good place for me, does it really not matter, or any other recommendations?

Yeah their foundation is the only one I’ll buy

Another vote to swerve the serum foundation. I hated it.

I used to love their neutral eyeshadow palettes- always a well curated selection of colours that work together. Do they still do those? I'll be honest I haven't really looked at the brand for a while.

I used to like them when they were still true to their simple wearable style. You, but better.

Now they gone the way as everybody else - highlighted to the nines, overdrawn lips, fake lashes and their USP is gone.

No, thank you.

Jones Road stuff looks really nice, I have watched a lot of interviews with Bobby Brown herself, really interesting how she has developed things and how she was prevented from releasing her own line until fairly recently!
