In Pictures: Molton Brown + Funky Brown Chick = Brown Love Affair

I’m going to write another post later. In the meantime, I wanted to upload pictures from last night’s “brown love affair.” Okay, so, here’s the story … My friend Julie is a huge Molton Brown fan, but I’d never used their products because I don’t really spend a lot of time or attention on facial products. So, anyway, a few weeks ago, Julie lured me to a Molton Brown event by mentioning they’d have free chocolate chip cookies and champagne. So, of course, I went. I think the manger — a man with EXTREMELY beautiful skin — asked me what I did for a living. I told him I’m a writer. Julie told him about my site, Funky Brown Chick. He wanted to know more about it, so I gave him the link. Yada, yada, yada … I think he’s a fan because he offered to host an event for me and a few friends. Last night, Molton Brown closed its doors and threw us a private soirée with sparkling wine, grapes, delightful little cookies, free massages and mini-facials.

Last night. Outside Molton Brown’s SoHo location. 128 Spring Street, New York, NY.

Today. My bathroom sink. I bought Skinfresh facial wash, Skinbalance tonight lotion and Facezone Overnight Renewal. (I still use Clinique’s daily moisturizer (yellow container) because it has SPF.)

Now that I look at all the pictures, I wish I took a group shot of our faces because everyone looked so pretty and relaxed after our mini-facials and massages. See that? Brown on Brown Love! :) Given my friends and I walked out with bags of purchased goodies hanging from our fingers, I guess the Molton Brown + Funky Brown Chick affair was a smart business move. That said, I don’t get the impression they throw private parties w/ wine and massages for everyone who walks in the store. So, I’m grateful for their kindness and generosity.
