Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base Review
Overall rating from 12 reviews so far:
Would use it again?
Did it do what it said it would?
Would recommend it to a friend?
A Bobbi Brown bestseller—a primer plus moisturization for smooth makeup application (it's the best of both worlds). Rich in feel, but never greasy, this advanced oil-free face formula, with Shea Butter, instantly hydrates, softens and cushions skin.
Bobbi recommends using Vitamin Enriched Face Base as the first step to prepare skin for the smoothest makeup application. With daily use, skin looks and feels its best. Dermatologist-tested.

My current fave product!
Tips: I still use either a serum or booster prior to applying the moisturiser as this helps the product go further I feel. I leave for 15 mins before applying my makeup and it works so well

Normal product
There was nothing amazing about this product for me personally but it didn’t not work. I just didn’t find any wow factors when using this.
Tips: No

Amazing Base, Expensive
One of the best primers I have used on the market. I do not think it is worth the price tag so have been reluctant to purchase it again as there are other options on the market and Bobbi Brown still test on animals.
Tips: Lano Face Base Vitamin E Day Cream is a great cheaper alternate

Not worth it
I wear makeup almost everyday and tried many moisturisers and primers as a makeup base. Honestly this is not a wow product. It is hydrating but a moisturiser will do the same job. For eg. Simple light moisturiser is a great moisturiser and under base cream and this bobbi brown cream does the same except with the unjustifiable price tag.

Love!
I use this product before applying my makeup. It helps with my dry combination skin tone. Its not to strong smelling and ensures the makeup a smooth surface

Pricey but nicey!
Well worth the price tag! It's not often that I say that as most things aren't worth the higher price, but this product is an exception! I've had this in my professional makeup kit for YEARS and I've used it on multiple clients with different skin types. Glides on like a dream, creating a smooth base for any foundation.
Tips: This product is a 'moisturiser and primer in one', but if your skin is on the drier side then I do recommend putting a lightweight moisturiser on first. The Vitamin Enriched Face Base can then be used as a primer on top. If you're skin is normal-oily then you should be a-okay with this product on its own! :-)

Good
Works well as a moisturizer but expensive for what it is. Works best if you have plenty of time to let it absorb before you put on foundation otherwise to greasy. I used as a night cream and worked well

Great but expensive
This product is amazing! So hydrating and works so well under makeup.
The only downside is the price. It's not cheap. Is it worth it? I'm not too sure, but I love it

Nice but pricey
I received a deluxe mini of this in a Mecca loop box. My initial reaction was that it smelt incredibly strongly of lemon for something I was going to put on my face. The smell does die down as soon as you put it on though. You only need to use the tiniest bit so even my little pot has lasted me a long time. This makes my skin smooth and soft, ready to apply foundation. As nice as this is, I wouldn’t purchase it as it is really pricey for a step that I normally skip.

A beautiful primer that has the benefits of a moisturizer also! Great for prepping tour skin before applying makeup. The formula is great for hydrating your skin and won't leave a greasy feeling residue.
Has a delicious slightly citrus scent and creates a beautiful soft, moisturized base for makeup.
You can purchase a smaller size if you want to trial it before getting the larger size which is great!
Tips: Use your skincare routine first and then apply this as a final step before starting your makeup.
I like to leave this primer on the skin for around 5 minutes before starting my makeup and I find it helps everything last better.
