Bobbi Brown Updates Makeup & Skincare Hybrid ‘Face Base’ Formula

New Vitamin Enriched Face Base+ contains niacinamide, panthenol and vitamin C.

Bobbi Brown Cosmetics is unveiling the next chapter of one of its bestselling products: the Vitamin Enriched Face Base+. According to the Happi Top 50 Company, this new product is an “elevated version” of its moisturizer and primer hybrid.

The new formula contains a SuperVitamin Blend featuring “five times” the vitamins including niacinamide (vitamin B3) to help strengthen the skin barrier, panthenol (vitamin B5) to replenish moisture and vitamin C to brighten skin over time

This delivers “enhanced skincare benefits while preserving everything consumers love about the original including its signature buttery texture, uplifting grapefruit and geranium scent, and effortless ability to create the perfect makeup-ready canvas,” per the brand.

About Face Base

Originally created backstage, Vitamin Enriched Face Base has evolved from an artist secret into a global beauty staple with one sold every 10 seconds worldwide. Now, after more than five years of development, the formula has been “elevated and future-proofed” to meet the needs of today’s consumer.

“This wasn’t about changing the formula; it was about making it work even harder for your skin,” says Teresa Kitfield, vice president of global product development for Bobbi Brown Cosmetics. “We asked ourselves, ‘How can we make the best even better?’ The answer was a new SuperVitamin Blend, purposefully chosen to deliver tangible results.”

Consumer Testing

In addition to its enhanced skincare benefits, Vitamin Enriched Face Base+ delivers 24-hour priming performance, an immediate 122% boost in hydration, and a 22% improvement in skin smoothness after four weeks of use, said the company.

Consumer testing showed that “96% of users agreed their skin looked brighter, healthier and more plumped with moisture after use. Additionally, 97% said their skin felt primed for makeup, 96% agreed their makeup looked fresh all day and that its wear was improved and 91% said they didn’t have to worry about cakey-looking makeup when using the product.”
