[@carolwalsh2181]

Mary, you are beautiful and real and a breath of fresh air. I’m getting so I cannot tolerate people on KZbin who wish to appear perfect in their lifestyle or their appearance. I don’t even trust most of the “influencers” after knowing that sponsors give them scripts to follow. It’s all fake. Thank you for being who you are. You are very relatable. I really enjoy you and your channel content.

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Thank you so much Carol, you just made my day ☺️

[@goodkarma4996]

Bought 4 different balms, foundation pencil and brow pencil. I love it! I’m 55 and have good skin but do suffer from redness and some light sun spots. This makeup routine is so quick and easy! Bobbi Brown hit it out of the park with these products!

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Fantastic! They're soooo good

[@houseofshetler1532]

Well hello, Mary! I’ve been considering this new line for awhile.. And I must tell you.. If I had any connections to Bobbi herself, I would call her right away and tell her to fly you out to the States, because I had found her new Campaign model/instructor❤️. Your beauty, diction, cadence & instruction are what is encouraging me to hit that “Add to Cart” button!😉 I have watched several of Bobbi’s videos on Jone’s Road, but if we’re being honest, your’s was better. We’re the same age, and I too have scars (from childhood Chicken Pox) that I like to camouflage.. You’re so relatable, and my goodness that smile! 20 something makeup KZbinr’s are great! But I want a girl that looks like me and has a few more years of wisdom in her arsenal!😉. You have a new subscriber, sister! I encourage you to keep up your good works! Us Gen Xer’s need you!!! 😘

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Oh wow....thank you SO much for kind words 😊 You've totally made my day!! It certainly encourages me to keep on going 👍 And if you happen to get through to Bobbi, tell her I'm happy to be a part of their campaign 😂

Thanks for this fabulous review and demo. I've been contemplating the Jones Road line since I am a "no make up" make up person. Like you, I'm 50 and prefer to spend my money and time on skincare rather than makeup. This may be a reason to give the brand a go. Keep the videos coming-you're a gem!

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Thank you so much 😊 I'd be very interested to hear what you think if you give a try. Let me know!

[@parkwood6334]

@Green Thumb Wannabe. I have oily skin. I was intrigued by Miracle Balm, so I got the au Natural. It was so greasy on my hands. I fully expected breakouts, but my skin loves it. I don't use it as a makeup, but like it as skincare. Maybe it will be a good winter makeup.

[@julesthornton8297]

I just have to say I love that redness in your cheeks, I was hanging on to see what blush you use

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Aww thanks. That's my good ol' skin sometimes...

[@margaretgray4170]

I just got mine today 7/11/23! I got the Sunkist ... color is spot on with a tiny hint of color! I like it! It is natural looking with a shine and not the painted look that most creme foundations give! I like it!

[@SkinObsessedMary]

I'm so glad! I'll be following up soon with a full face video of Jones Road. I love it too ❤️

[@irenesleight8024]

I love these products! I have dry skin which loves the miracle balm (I have 3)...I know so many talked about it being tacky, but that was not my experience. I also love the face sticks, and shimmer oil. I'm in my 50's living in a cold climate & this was a godsend! I just ordered the oil stick and some eye tints so anxious to try that as well

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Have you tried WTF? I need to order some eye colours too I think. I love the shimmer face oil!

[@profe3330]

I'm a not-so-young woman in a cold climate, and I LOVE the Miracle Balm. I'm using Dusty Rose on my winter-pallid skin, and the effect is energizing and fresh, but not at all made-up looking. My skin feels beautifully hydrated and soft, and is sort of glowy, without looking like I'd been dipped in a vat of highlighter. (This really is a unique product, so it's hard to describe.) For somebody with dry to normal skin, living in a cool, temperate or dry climate, it's fantastic. On the other hand, I'm not so sure that a person with oily skin would like it, nor do I think it would be ideal for a hot, humid environment. In that case, I think it would just be too much of a good thing.

[@SkinObsessedMary]

I think you're absolutely right! Living in Ireland, it's pretty much never hot here, so it suits well. Do you wear any foundation at all or just the miracle balm?

[@profe3330]

@@SkinObsessedMary Not much - unless I really look pasty. Mostly I just use concealer, balm and a little cream blush. Ireland in January, though! Wow. I'm in Maine, where it's even colder and there's lots of snow, but the dampness of an Irish winter just kills you!

[@alittlebitlaura]

Great in depth review. I recently turned 50 and also love the miracle balm for hydration. I would recommend the natural balm color for all over and trying her lip/cheek tint for added warmth and color. There’s a tawny nude color that is beautiful for a flush without being too pink. Also has a nice sheen.

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Thank so much for watching ☺️ I think you're totally right - the Tawny isn't as flexible and so maybe the natural colour is my next purchase

[@kathleenannclancy1]

What an absolutely "real" review. I was glued to the post from beginning to end... While I normally skip over the gibber jabber to get to the root of the review. I too have aging, dry skin (52 over here 👋💕) and will NOW be purchasing this product, all because of you. Thank you!!!

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Wow, that's so lovely - thank you 😊 Please come back and let me know what you think. I've picked up a bunch more Jones Road products and will do a full face video soon!

[@karenb5097]

I think the natural redness on your cheeks looks great. You never have to apply blush. I would just moisturize my face with a neutral balm if I were you and let that pretty natural blush shine through.

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Thank you! And you're right...I don't wear makeup most days

[@jenniferholman8849]

@@SkinObsessedMary I was going to ask what blush you were wearing because I love it! Then you said it's natural and I was like wow, what a blessing you got :)

Thanks for your review! I have using JRB since it was launched! The one product I haven’t used yet is the WTFoundation- but that is now on its way. I am 60, and I go between the JRB “look” and a full on makeup “look” and I am using JRB more than the full on stuff. I have 3 Miracle Balms (Au Naturale is clear, Tawny more for contouring or that sun-kissed look and Dusty Rose for that healthy flush/glow). My skin LOVES the Miracle Balm, I live high in the Rocky Mountains, and it’s very dry where I live and my skin is also very dry, so the MB is my go to for everyday use. I love the pencils, they are so versatile and easily packed in a purse or a carryon when traveling. I pretty much have everything JRB has produced except the mascara, I love it but my eyes do not (I have very sensitive eyes and also dry eyes that cause tearing. Thanks for the review and how to put this product on correctly. And may I note for those here who want to use the Miracle Balm- to break the seal, I used a makeup spatula to go deep and make a deep divot in the pot- it’s a tough seal to break so don’t feel you are failing- just dig hard and deep and it will break and you will get the full benefit of the product.

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Spatula is a great idea! I think I need to get a few more colours of MB myself. I love the feel of it on my skin too :)

[@cristinafrancisco6773]

I’m totally excited to try the Jones Road beauty brand as I’ve also been a long time fan of Bobbi Brown. And the ethos of the brand appeals to me 😊letting my skin shine through and using makeup to lightly accentuate “me” - 60 years old and doing my best to look after my skin. I have the chance to order and have it delivered to my in-laws in Texas. They come to the Netherlands regularly and could bring it over. The miracle balm sounds incredible!

[@SkinObsessedMary]

I know you're a minimalist so this might be perfect! Please let me know what you think.

[@fionaH101]

I really like the look on you. It's a very natural look, tones down any redness and looks like you aren't wearing make up, which I think is perfect. The miracle balm sounds like it might be good for my skin during the winter when it suffers from the cold.

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Thanks very much. And the miracle balm is my favouruite. Let me know if you give it a try!

[@Zeoli123]

I cannot imagine spending that much time on my face! I use LaRoche Posay tinted SPF 50 and it gives a light tint and actually tones down age spots.

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Sounds like you have a great routine 👍

[@thatjedininja]

Great review! Of all the JR reviews I think you really took the time to understand the products 🤣. I have combo skin, leaning drier in the winter and oily in summer. I only reach for JR stuff in the winter when I’m drier and prefer to wear less makeup. I love her eyeshadow formulas, the liquid glitter shadow has a bit of a learning curve, her mascara knocked out my favorite (Bite). Overall, her line is fantastic. But you have to understand that when you use her products, what you know of “no makeup-makeup” to be will need to be dialed back 5 knotches down.🤣. Took me a while to understand that.

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Thank you for your insights! I'd love to get a bit of hands-on training with her team to make sure I'm getting the most out of it. I'm going to keep on trying for sure...

[@lexi321x]

You were absolutely gorgeous before and equally beautiful after. I’m very happy you were au natural to start. I never wear make up.

[@hma2dogs427]

Thank you for your review. I am 53 and going into menopause and find my face getting more and drier. I saw another review recently but she was younger. So I appreciate your review and plan on giving this a try. Would love to see another review once you get the different colors to hear how you like them.

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Glad it was helpful! I probably won't pick any more up until I'm back in the States (the import costs are a bear!), but I'll be dabbling again in the summer, I'd say. Thanks so much for getting in touch :)

[@JanHarris-k2m]

Thank you for making the follow up video. I was skeptical after your first review and didn't order. I feel more confident in the brand today. I live in Wyoming where there is lots of sun and wind, so natural is the look I am going for.

[@SkinObsessedMary]

I think Bobbi Brown is all about the natural look.

[@aliciapalu4605]

Thank you for your review. I just ordered the JR bronze miracle balm and “New Year Same You” kit to try out the face sticks, eye cream and new shimmer oil. Really intrigued with the skin care element of these products. I’m 50 as well and looking for “better for your skin”makeup. Cheers 🥂

[@pattic.2975]

Great job! I just found this brand and doing my research. I'm interested in the miracle balm. Since Covid, my husband and I have been pretty much isolating, so I have no business looking at makeup AND never wore makeup. However, because I just turned 62, I'm more interested in self-care than ever. Interested in wearing something on my skin, I think this is it. I'll return to give you an update. Bobbi needs to give you a commission because if I do purchase, it'll largely be because of you! Keep up with your videos, good luck to you. BTW, you look great and am glad you proudly own your beauty marks!!! 🥰🥰🥰

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Oh wow thank you so much ☺️ There have been a lot of mixed reviews on these products but I find they works beautifully. Please do come back and let me know what you think 🙏

[@CastleMc]

I recently bought the Miracle Balm in au natural, a face stick, and a cheek/lip stick. I love them because while the effect is subtle, they make a surprisingly big difference compared to wearing no make-up, and I am over 60 (and on you as well btw). I prefer that unless I am going to a formal event. The Miracle Balm does not feel tacky to me.

[@SkinObsessedMary]

That's fantastic news! I haven't tied the face stick yet but it's on the list! How do you wear the Miracle Balm? Do you use all over or just in certain places?

[@judyfeldman1315]

I like the Miracle Balm a lot for hydration and it ‘evens’ my skin tone. It doesn’t remain tacky. I’m 77 with heavily hooded eyes. Less makeup look is best for me so her approach works. Don’t want to look like a made up clown!

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Same! I'm very much less is more 👍

[@sadiewilson8846]

I was a professional makeup artist for ESTEE Lauder for four years. Miracle Balm is slightly tinted heavy night moisturizer. There is no way you could put this stuff on and then apply make up on type of it. I am glad I tried it though.

[@SkinObsessedMary]

That's so interesting, I've never heard anyone say that but I totally get it. It definitely has a lot of heavy oils/skin loving ingredients.

[@bethmollet4956]

I appreciated that you said you don’t cover your scars…it’s part of your journey. Amen! I too have scars from accidents and falls from my mountain bike rides! I am not a huge fan of the miracle balm. Not at all. It’s like dirty Vaseline that doesn’t soak in whatsoever on my skin. So. I went back to using Bobbie Brown products. It just always worked for me, but I’ll keep my mind open in trying any of her other Jones Road products. Thank you for your reviews- maybe I’ll try her miracle balm again in the winter- I did use it on my lips, but it’s expensive for a lip balm. Oh! I too ordered the color tawny- anyway, rock on with your reviews. I’ll watch and learn from “across the pond” in the Midwest 😊

So glad I found your review! I am obsessed with the Jones Road products I’ve bought so far (miracle balm in Tawny, Magic Hour and Flushed, Just A Sec shadow in Topaz, shimmer face oils in pink opal and Midas and the lipgloss in pink gold). I have oily skin so I don’t use the Miracle Balm all over my face but I love it on my cheeks as a glowy blush, and it stays put. I also really love the just a sec cream eyeshadows and the shimmer face oil. I thought I would just pipe in as an oily skin girl to say that miracle balm is great, you just have to modify application. All of the products you used look amazing on you!!

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Make a suggestion? Have you considered that the redness on your cheeks is rosacea? Have the same thing, and my dermatologist started me n a prescription face lotion that I put just on the red areas and it has made a world of difference.

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a message 😊 I do love her products. It's best to use sparingly, in my opinion, but I find they're great for dry, dehydrated skin. 👍 That's a great suggestion. That redness really only happens occasionally but if it's something that persists or becomes more frequent, I definitely will.

[@rbaker368]

so, they also suggested to me that i go much lighter when they first launched. I got 1 & 3. The models they used to demo the no1 have changed now, and the same model is now demoing no7! the 3 was fine, a bit yellow, but it worked on my neutral pale olive undertone. But the 1 was waaaaay too light. I got the no7 recently and it is perfect. So, i found that i needed darker, and also darker than their people sugested when i sent a pic. tricky to match online, tbh, but worth trying different colours to find the perfect one. amazing product. makes my skin look perfect.

Just listening to you and you saying you're in Europe I kept hearing an irish lilt and was satisfied to see you are based in Dublin! It's so interesting how accents creep into others. I love this review, very helpful as I rarely wear makeup and love the no makeup makeup. The pencils look so promising as well as the balm.

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Haha, some people really pick it up on my crazy accent! Ya it's an interesting makeup for sure. The more I use it though the more I wonder if the pencils aren't a bit too drying for me 😬 If you're looking for a super light option with a blurring effect and slight luminosity, my first pick is always Trinny London BFF cream - it's a holy grail product I'm never without and it's sometimes all I wear. Here's a link - myshlf.us/p-175190 Another great option and one that has totally grown on me is the Chanel Water Fresh Tint - myshlf.us/p-187120 Also did a video (and like it even more than I said here) - bit.ly/3b5J5H9

I just placed my first order with Jones Road. I didn't order the balm yet, I'm just sticking a toe in the water to see if I like the colors. I ordered two pencils and two lip colors. I was a Bobbi Brown Cosmetics customer way back when, and I loved the philosophy in re offering subtle colors in a broad range. But it was disappointing when she sold it to Lauder.... On the website, they offer an eye moisturizer to use under the pencil, if you use it under the eyes. I have moisturizer left over, so I'll wait on that; they also offer a solution in re the balm for those with oilier skins: get their powder to absorb any shine. Gotta say, I appreciate that the prices are moderate compared with the higher-end brands, running about the same price as Clinique, which isn't nearly as good a product, has lots of chemicals, etc. As a person around Bobbi's age, I'm so relieved to find that she's making products that are good for my age group, as well as for younger-aged women. It's huge. And she uses some older models who have gray hair. Many of us grew out our color and went gray during the pandemic. I had my hair dyed for about 30 years before that, and I'm so relieved to not have to get my roots done every 6-8 weeks. Not to mention the savings. So I'm shifting my makeup to go with the gray hair, as well as my discovery that I have cool undertones, not warm ones! Anyway, I just found your channel and will enjoy exploring it. Would enjoy seeing you explore her WTF product, which I'm considering trying rather than the balm, but the balm's getting good reviews all over, so we'll see.

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Hi there, thank you for taking the time share your thoughts 😊 I'm a huge fan of Bobbi Brown's philosophy....less is more and she absolutely develops products for us older ladies. A lot of people don't love miracle balm because it's pretty heavy stuff. I use it sparingly and enjoy but for many it's too sticky. I did purchase and review WTF if you want to check it out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jXmrmWlsbc-GgKs It's great if you don't want anything too heavy, that just evens out skin tone. I haven't embraced the grey yet (my hair's not grey enough) but look forward to the day when I can stop colouring out of necessity. Let me know what you think of your new purchases!

Love the review. I am 53 and pretty fair with combo skin. I got the balm in Dusty Rose and have only used it twice. I love the smell, the feel and the color it adds to my skin. I am learning to use it, as I think it can do a lot more than just putting color on my cheeks over foundation, which is what I did today. I have the pencil in fair neutral but plan to get a pink fair when it's back in stock. I am going to try to put it on my skin all over tomorrow instead of using foundation. I really love the feel and hope to be able to use it to its full potential.

Thanks for the review. Do you think the Miracle Balm would make skin too greasy looking if put over a sunscreen? I use Murad City Skin Defense 50 SPF and am 74 years old. I listened to another KZbin review and she thought the Miracle Balm needed to be on bare skin to avoid greasiness, but we all need to use sunscreen. Thanks

[@SkinObsessedMary]

You are absolutely right - sunscreen is a must! I think the main thing is skipping the moisturiser. Plus..you don’t have to put all over your face (like I did here). I also use as a contour and a different colour as blush

[@MakeupMavenBrittany]

I just ordered some products finally after debating for weeks but I like a very natural makeup now, I only do more heavy makeup if I’m going out for the night. I love the natural look and these products seems to do a great job. I am only 33 and wasn’t sure if it was for my age group since all the ads and most videos are more mature women’s skin but I just really want to try it. I love feeling hydrated too so I’m really hoping these work for me!

Thank you for your great review. I think it looks great on you. The difference is subtle but perfect for minimal make up and letting your beauty come thru. My only hesitation is the "tacky feel". I do not like anything that feels heavy or tacky. My skin is very dry so the moisture would be welcome.

Hi Mari, I've actually seen her do both. But you're right...I now use more at the end of my routine. I just bought a 4pack of minis and use them in different way. Thanks about the top!

[@Lucy-zd7eb]

First of all glad I was so glad to find you and by chance too, I like your ethos! I jumped in a few months ago with Jones Road and recently bought a new kit (which took nearly a month to arrive here in London) with the shimmer face product, powder blush, smokey grey powder, brown eye pencil (really nice on brown eyes). I am pretty happy with the products, love the simplicity. I, too ,think it is not long lasting and I am a bit confused about what miracle balm actually is for. I was using it more as a blusher but going to do your way although not sure my pencils would then be right (too light) I really don't like buying anything skin make up wise online as how do you get the colour right and you can't send it back if wrong! I'm not sure I got the right pencils. Would be lovely to have the luxury of many more pencils like Bobbi has at her disposal 😂 I wish they were a bit more specific with how to use products a not sure if their new shimmer thing is supposed to work with miracle balm! Look forward more videos.

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Colour matching is so tricky! I personally think the pencils work better over the miracle balm (otherwise they drag on my skin). It sounds like I need to experiment not with other products. The new cream blushes looks amazing! Thank you so much for watching ☺️

[@jmgfavorties]

JUST trying for the first time today. VERY tacky but loving it so far. I am reallly thinking i should have purchased tawny after watching you. we have similar skin tones. I purchased dusty rose and bronze. The dusty rose as a blush does NOTHING for me. and it actually arrived busted- melt/thaw so i am going to return it for being defective. I ended up using a little BeautyCounter mattifying powder on top of the balms- i felt like i looked TOO shiny. I am very overwhelmed by the pencil and only bought 1 ( #9). i will continue to try it. i like it but it intimidates me! and the mascara looks amazing. i currently use Thrive and LOVE it but might be willing to try something else. thanks for the video! I think it looks great on your skin!

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Well I’d love to hear what you think about bronze because sometimes the Tawny feels a bit dark tho I love the option (and put in my neck every day regardless). I probably won’t be doing the Dusty Rose now so thank you!

@@SkinObsessedMary Bronze is great. been wearing it for 9 hours and still feeling fresh. i applied like they did on the website's video- including my neck. I dont feel like it is a true "bronzer" no real shimmer and not very dark- but will work as a base layer. just need to find a new blush.

[@SkinObsessedMary]

Thank you ☺️ 🙏 Yes, it has a lot of skin-loving ingredients! It's highly moisturising, so if you have skin that skews dry/dehydrated, you'll probably like it. It gives just a subtle colour - and they have one without colour at all.

But after listening to your story here sold me more. I don't like leaving negative feed back. Now that you go through the good oils it make sense. My skin is normal but the grease was too much for an few hour. It's true you need more colors but the price is $. Maybe a trial pack would be a good starter with color palettes.

It can get a bit sticky otherwise.

It reminds me of a cream that Max Factor made in the 1980s-I used to wear my mom’s all the time, lols! Such a great formula. The magic balm was so light and beautiful once I learned how little is needed. Eye shadows and Just A Sec are beautiful. So natural and blendable! The lip / cheek sticks are possibly my favorite product. Tawny Nude and English Rose both great colors! Lips glosses I haven’t really needed but loving the colors and feel. (Nude Beige and Peony) The only things I haven’t loved are all the different pencils for skin, eyes, and brows-maybe because it’s winter they don’t feel creamy enough and drag. I’ll keep them though, because hoping in warmer months they’ll be better. I probably shouldn’t have bought the mascara because I don’t really look great in it.
