But I think the spot is kind of adorable. The staging is bright and sweet, the song works well, the little sad-faced bag makes the point. Bobbi Brown is investing in its future. I think the ad works!Hummingbird5https://www.blogger.com/profile/13574224931639273406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1905173831662671321.post-41974783144665275182012-04-18T20:39:21.307-04:002012-04-18T20:39:21.307-04:00Really??

As for the BB compact, well, it IS advertising, afterall, and I keep a pressed powder compact in my bag because I still get the "shinys" in my T-zone (Yup. Still.

Ah, the confidence of being old and wise! :-D I don't even own a makeup bag. I just toss my lipstick/gloss into one of the compartments in my purse and I'm good to go.

I carry lip products for touch up and that's about it. The target audience is young women who have to keep touching up their makeup. I try to get it right the first time in the morning.

She took it with her, she took it out of her bag and placed it beside her on her desk (huh?), she kept taking a BB compact out to check her makeup. Isn't that the type of thing a woman would normally keep in her makeup bag? Silly and not in a humorous way :-(Eileennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1905173831662671321.post-50587159463174611932012-04-17T20:49:25.794-04:002012-04-17T20:49:25.794-04:00Pretty awful...I think they could have done better...Pretty awful...I think they could have done better than that!bisbeenoreply@blogger.com
