Pp again and I just got this ad after reading this post. It’s not the miracle balm but might be worth a try! https://www.ulta.com/p/halo-glow-blush-beauty-wand-pimprod2038825?sku=2609252&cmpid=P_FB_DK_FY24WK18_BronzeGoddess2BP&utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=paid_social&utm_campaign=conversions_bronze-goddess-2-bp_wk18&fbclid=PAAaaapR-cf6T7M75WS-ZYiRPvltlw-V8q0sUgMqxYDrGmwn3fi4oz5Iqldf8_aem_AbYUNfmSeiSW7YIUHwwRAtL_GhatpQNzhbNMk0EnYlnquRR4Id3EvDYPjK7FmvK7OmdECB2pS-1sP8JANg95A1ei |

| I'm the target audience for MB and I love it. 40+, medium tone skin that's a bit oily. I wear very little makeup, but the MB in Golden Hour is almost always involved. Use less than you think and strictly as a highlighter. I like it most during the winter when I need a bit of extra moisture and brightness. |

I hated it. Hate the texture and the smell.

Yeah I cannot believe there is anyone who likes it, and that's saying something. This has got to be the biggest formula fail on the market. I think they went overdrive in marketing due to this particular product, including influencers starting to address it by saying people aren't "using it correctly." Come on...if you melt a crayon candle at home and spread it on your face, that is what it feels like. It feels thick and tacky, within seconds your hair is stuck to and your face is shining in a weird way. I like some other products in this line, and generally have liked the older Bobbi Brown, but this stuff is uncharacteristic for her. |

| Thank you for this thread. I’ve been getting inundated with ads but nervous to buy without trying it. |

| Ordered and tried very hard to convince myself I liked it because the marketing was so effective and I’ve historically really liked BB products, but it’s a hard no. Don’t remember the color and it’s long ago trash. Sticky and smells weird. Colors either too sheer or too difficult (for me) to blend/build or shimmery. My friend loves it though so if really want to try it I’d suggest you look for the sample bag with mini balms because maybe different colors have a slightly different feel??? |

| Just like vaseline. Yuck. My hair kept sticking to my face. Then, it’s work to get it off your hands. What a mess. |

| It’s OK. I don’t think it sticks to my face. I just feel like there’s not much pigment (I got a mini of “Flushed”). I think I may like it better in the winter when I need more hydration anyway. I will consider getting some more minis on the Black Friday sale. It’s fine for no-makeup makeup days. |

| I hated it and put it aside for a year. I recently tried it again. It is a nice fresh minimal look. But you have to pat it on and pat again with a tissue. |

| I hated it. And I love aquaphor amd Vaseline and put those on my face without issue at night. I tried a couple shades and they were just blah. Either couldn’t see anything at all or had big flecks of glitter in them. |

| It’s fine but I wear tinted sunscreen and feel like putting this on over it is wiping away sunscreen. Seems like it would be best in bare skin but who does that? |

| I guess I am the outlier here but I really like it. And I think the smell is fine. |

| Worst cosmetic fail on the market. They are trying to recoup by intensifying social media marketing- getting influencers to try and change the bad buzz around it, but seriously- a big mistake was made here. Collasall. Go ahead and see if you want to spend the $$, though. The other products in the line have merit, but this one is reallt awful. Sorry! |

I really like it, too, for “no-makeup” days. I only have Flushed right now, but plan to get a set of four minis when they do the Black Friday sale. |
