What Bobbi Brown does best is produce wearable colours that anyone can use, but the downside of that is that if you’re already stocked up on Bobbi, you will very likely already have similar, if not the same, shades. And, if I’m being ultra-picky, the finish on this isn’t great with a couple of the pans set into the palette slightly wonky.
However, nobody does browns like Bobbi; from flat mattes to rich shimmer the Rich Chocolate Eye Palette is pretty well perfect. I think Bobbi fans will have a hard time staying away from this when it launches in September for £39.50. *UPDATE: Just launched early HERE.
The three gloss shades that go with the collection are my dream glosses (as is just about every Bobbi gloss) – above Pale Pink and Tea Berry but not shown is a bitter chocolate shade with pink undertones called Chocolate Raspberry that I’d buy in a nano-second. They’re both limited edition shades (although Chocolate Raspberry is billed as a new shade which is confusing) and will cost £18.
A couple of powder blushers and two lipsticks complete the line-up. It is, as expected, so wearable and a bit like buying your winter coat – something dependable, warm and will see you through the season in style.

Gorgeous, gorgeous palette, shame i absolutely hate glitter in eye shadow but the mattes look stunning! xx
From a high end product I would not be happy with the eyeshadow being wonky in the pan at all.
Please tell me you didn’t get it off eBay, I am super paranoid about make up fakes as there are so many around. I’ve done a whole post about it.

Great write up, thank you!
I think I might invest in the Rich Chocolate palette and take a look at the Chocolate Raspberry gloss next month.
I’ve recently been persuaded to move some of my products over from MAC to Bobbie Brown.
I’ve already mentioned the brand’s BB Cream on my site so it will be great to try a few more recommendations.
