“I wanted to create something that felt sun-kissed and radiant, but in an effortless way,” fashion designer Ulla Johnson tells Vogue of her beautiful new collection with Bobbi Brown. Job done. The collaboration, which is available to buy from today, is a quick and joyful route to luminous, springtime skin. “It’s meant to enhance your natural beauty, rather than cover it,” she adds.
Combining the floral femininity of Johnson’s designs with the fresh and effortless finish that every Bobbi Brown product delivers, the line comprises everything from a Highlighting Powder to the brand’s Crushed Lip Colour, Extra Lip Tint and Cream Shadow Sticks – all of which promise to impart the most natural and radiant look to the complexion.
“Optimism and wanderlust are two things I always try to evoke through my designs,” says Johnson. “I want my designs to make you feel beautiful, powerful and unfettered, while also introducing an element of fantasy. I hope the same goes for this make-up collection – the shades we have created are light, fresh and optimistic.” In other words, perfect for skin.
The designer’s own favourites from the range include the Highlighting Powder in Pink Glow and the Extra Lip Tint, “which is incredibly moisturising and has a touch of colour – it’s the one little thing you need before dinner”. As someone who is all about a “soft, undone look”, the collection fits Johnson’s bill to a tee. And you’re going to love it too.
