On July 11, 2024, iconic makeup artist Bobbi Brown captivated an audience of nearly 200 guests at the 4th annual philanthropic East Hampton Emergency Department fundraiser luncheon.
The event was held at the picturesque Maidstone Club in East Hampton.
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.

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.
