Bobbi Brown
Bobbi Brown Loves the Beach
"The beach is my favorite place in the world," says Bobbi Brown. "It conjures up happy memories of the time spent with my family, and it makes me feel peaceful and calm."
The key to a beach makeup look? "It's all about a healthy, sun-kissed look. This season we have a new blush shade in our Beach Beauty Palette called Bahama Brown Shimmer Blush. It has a hint of shimmer and gives skin a beautiful bronzy glow -- like you've been at the beach all day."
As for what Brown brings to the beach, she says, "Sunscreen, a baseball cap, SPF15 lip balm, a bottle of water, a great book and my iPod with all my favorite songs."
