Bobbi Brown is as much a household name as the iconic beauty queens who came before, but the similarity ends there. Unlike Helena, Elizabeth and Estée, Brown’s name has never been on cosmetics you’d call war paint. Instead, she gained millions of fans and devoted consumers because instead of creating products meant to mask, Brown’s eponymous product line’s initial mission was to effortlessly bring out the best version of you; make up that never had you looking made up. Brown sold her product line to Lauder in 2016. At 59, she had nothing left to prove. But the diminutive innovator, who calls work her favorite hobby, grew restless, and fascinated by developing new technologies and formulations The moment her no compete clause expired, she launched Jones Road Beauty, a line so clean, natural and wellness inspired that it’s been both an instant hit and an invigorating kick start for its creator. ‘This line is more me, than anything I have ever done. I love wearing it. I loved women talking about it and embracing it. I’m 67 and I feel worthy because I put myself out there and I don’t feel that people don’t want to hear from me because I’m a certain age. I’m not alone. People are starting to reinvent themselves. Including me. And I think it’s great. “ Hear Bobbi Brown and discover why she’s pretty great, too.
btw, Jones Road’s newest product - Just Enough Tinted Moisturizer - is just so damn good
