Bobbi Brown (Photo Credit: Mark Sagliocco) NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, July 22, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Iconic makeup artist Bobbi Brown captivated an audience of nearly 200 guests at the 4th annual East Hampton Emergency Department fundraiser luncheon, held at the picturesque Maidstone Club, On Thursday, July 11, 2024.

Chaired by East Hampton residents Jill Davis, Kate Davis, Hollis Forbes, Liz Lange, and Mary Margaret Trousdale the event began with a Q & A with Brown, moderated by BookHampton owner Carolyn Brody. The event was held in support of the new Stony Brook Medicine (SBM) East Hampton Satellite Emergency Department.

Brown, a legendary makeup artist, best-selling author, sought-after speaker, and the founder and chief creative officer of Jones Road Beauty, spoke about revolutionizing the beauty industry, how the Miracle Balm led to the start of Jones Road Beauty, what is in her makeup bag, empowering women from all backgrounds to embrace who they are, and much more.

Brown’s philosophy is makeup should be quick and natural, and it should enhance who you are. “I wasn’t really a trained artist,” Brown noted about her start in the industry. “I put bronzer on their cheeks, and a liner around their eyes, and it wasn’t popular. A photographer started hiring me, Bruce Weber, who didn’t like makeup at all. I started doing those kind of things, and experimenting with things that I wasn’t comfortable with, like Fashion Week and I just had a ball.”

Jones Road Beauty’s latest campaign, I Am Me, encourages all to focus on what they like about themselves, and embrace what makes them unique. "I've always been someone that has talked about confidence, the importance of confidence,” Brown noted.

The conversation culminated with a lightening round Q&A with questions from the audience.

Guests included Veronica Atkins, Marcia Dunn, Irina and Maximillian Eicke, Laura Fisch, Allegra Kelly, Dale Ellen Leff, Fern Mallis, Gretta Monahan, Jackie Mitchell, Charlotte Moss, Louise Phanstiel, Angel Schade, Virginia Schwerin, Jean Shafiroff, Nancy Stone, Annette Theiss, Diane Tuft, Sarah Wetenhall, and Melanie Wambold.

Following the talk, a delicious lunch was served and guests stayed on to enjoy the ocean views and to mingle with friends. Guests were also treated to gift bags containing Jones Road Beauty Miracle Balm in Happy Hour and Just a Sec Eyeshadow in Bronze.
