Bobbi Brown Ready, Set, Glow

This kit from Bobbi Brown is a great Christmas gift for someone who enjoys treating their skin but doesn’t like a lot of fuss. The Ready, Set, Glow set contains three of the brands cult skin products to provide you with a nourished, radiant and hydrated skin that will be primed and ready for makeup application or for those who don’t wear makeup but still want flawless glowing skin.

The kit contains the Illuminating moisture Balm. This is a thick textured cream that is dispensed in minimal amounts via a pump action tube (30ml).

 It’s normally available in three shades but for the kit, it comes in bare glow. This is the most universal shade I would say and would work on absolutely every skin tone. It’s pretty much translucent except for the veil of glossy radiance.

 It’s loaded with ingredients such as Glycerin, Shea Butter, evening Primrose oil, caffeine, Rosemary and Chamomile.

It may feel slightly too tacky for those with a combination-oily skin but the rich textured layer does subside pretty quickly.

 If you have a dryer skin you may want to team this with your regular skincare routine and use it as a last stage skin veil. If you have a combination/oily skin then it would suffice as your moisturiser.

 You can smell the bitter orange extract within and it’s a luxurious joy to massage into the skin.

To compliment this is the Extra Eye repair Cream. This is an emollient rich cream that requires minimal application amount. I have found that the richness encourages mascara and eyeliner to transfer so stick to using this at nighttime or well in advance of makeup application.

 It’s a total moisture magnet so you can expect the skin to feel plumped and hydrated. Good for those who experience dry skin around the delicate eye area, fine lines that need a little plumping or skin that has been exposed to the elements. It contains collagen boosting ingredients so has excellent reparative benefits.

Not forgetting the lips, the extra Lip tint in bare pink provides a soft pink flush to the lips that requires zero application precision. Just slick it on. The stain this provides will blend with your natural lips making them look hydrated and lifted in tone.

The Ready, Steady, Glow kit is available here now for £68 (normally a value of £118.50).
