  • Versatile miracle balm glow
  • Minimalist, refined aesthetic
  • Easy, blendable face pencils
  • Compliment-earning dewy finishes
  • Sticky, oily product textures
  • Foundation separation and clumping
  • Unflattering glittery eyeshadows
  • Bulky, cheap-feeling packaging

Jones Road Beauty earns mixed reviews: the Miracle Balm frequently delights with dewy, glow-enhancing, no-makeup finishes and versatile shades like Au Naturel, Bronze, and Dusty Rose, while What The Foundation and some balms feel sticky, oily, or separate over time. Reviewers praise the easy, minimalist aesthetic, effective Face Pencils for targeted concealing, and initially impressive mascara that can later clump; complaints include glittery finishes on aging lids, dry or tugging pencils under eyes, odd smells, grainy textures, and packaging that feels bulky or cheap.

  • I haven’t tried a ton from this brand, but the concealer pencils are to die for! Soft, easy application. No frills or fuss just easy to use and work. I love using a lighter shade as a highlighter. Also I am 43 and it doesn’t crease!

  • Post-menopause, I've got horrible, stubby eyelashes and really wanted mascara that would give them back some of the va-va-voom they once had. My sister bought me this Jones Road mascara as a gift, since it is a luxe product and quite pricey, thinking it would suit my mature beauty needs. I was excited to use it and it's certainly better than what I'd been using before: the super buildable formula feels luxurious on the eyes, it doesn't flake, smudge in light rain or irritate my sensitive eyes and it really makes my lashes look long - and consequently my eyes look more wide awake, which is a bonus. What I don't like is the prone-to-clogging brush which deposits too much mascara for me at one time, making my lashes clumpy and requiring me to use a clean spoolie to separate them. I've tried really scraping the brush on the side of the tube before application but thus far I've not been successful in perfecting my technique.

  • I was excited for this launch but ultimately disappointed. I’ve purchased the skin balm and the pencil. The balm, in theory, should have been great as it was made for someone with dry skin and a good fit for a no make up make up look. However, the foundation/skin tint separates daily. And once on your face, it has a nice finish but is very sticky and my hair sticks immediately to my face. The pencil is nothing to write home about, it is like a drugstore pencil but the pencil specs fall on my eye and under it, giving raccoon eyes.

  • El Miracle Balm de Jones Road es un producto multiusos que deja un glow natural y saludable en la piel. Me encanta aplicarlo en mejillas y labios para un toque de color y brillo sutil. Perfecto para días sin base o para un look “no makeup” real. ✨🌿

  • I am a “no-makeup” makeup person. If you are too, then run, don’t walk to Jones Road. I’ve tried a number of their products and everything is easy to put on and gives you that extra little boost. I recommend the Miracle Balm in pinched cheeks and the gel eye liner (!). The eyeliner is great! And their eyeliner brush makes it so easy to use.

  • Even though the beauty launches are left and right, I do think Jones Road has some cool, innovative products that makes it stand out . I bought the Miracle Balm, Face Pencil and The Oil Stick. Gr

    The Face Pencil could be a little more emollient, it tugs in my eye area.

  • Their products are beautifully natural looking and buildable. Biggest downside is that they're so hydrating that on my skin they can end up wearing off quite quickly if not set with powder and setting spray.

  • This is the new venture by Bobbi Brown. Some of the products are great - the mascara is amazing. Some are OK - the foundation, really good for dry skin in the beginning but after a few months started developing some granules in the formula. Some are not good at all - blushes in stick have colours that are totally off for pale skins, the lip balms are too dry and the face balm is useless as it makes my face super shiny. Far too many products launched one after the other and awful marketing based on ‘influencers’ that got the products for free. I wonder how many people have actually paid for the products that are reviewed on YT as most people are reviewing freebies. I do not like the aesthetic of the brand (packaging looks cheap). I am not going to repurchase any of the products with the exception of the mascara as it is really good.

  • I bought the cream shadow and hippie stick from Credo Beauty in Brooklyn. I like both the products but there's nothing remarkable about either of them. The hippie stick smells really calming and reminds me of chamomile tea. The shadow is pretty but I find the tiny pot a little difficult to get into with my slightly long nails. I get that the brand is all about easy beauty and I suppose it's living up to that.

  • I am 58 and started getting discouraged with regular foundation. My face was looking cakey and the foundation showed every wrinkle. I tried several brands and was not happy. Last year, I started to use the miracle balm daily. I used their shade picker and bought 2 shades. I mix the 2 shades on my face. For work, I top off with What the foundation, and brush on a face powder, add blush, eyeshadow. I use the concealer pencil as a lower eyeliner and to provide a clean line at the eyeshadow termination. I love the concealer pencil to cover minor flaws ( I have a scar on my forehead and a small busted blood vessel on my face. I am happy with Jones Road Beauty!

  • Love the miracle balm! Have it in three colors… Bronze, dusty, rose, flushed/pink. Took the “find your match” test and was a little worried about the results thinking one was too dark and one was too bright… But they work with my skin perfectly! I love them. They seem to smooth out the appearance of the skin.

    It’s a little tacky. If you have oily skin, you probably won’t like the product. But if you have normal or dry skin, you will likely love it. I don’t wear a lot of make up so I like a natural look with a little shine.

  • Love the miracle balm so much I won’t use foundation anymore! I have the Au Naturel and it’s perfect for my fair skin! Gives a dewy finish over tinted moisturizer or makeup!

  • Love the brand. Bobbi is so incredibly thoughtful when it comes to developing products and his still innovating with this new brand. The blush sticks are great, the bronzer is one of the very best I have ever tried and the glosses smell amazing and wonderfully pigmented. I also love the lipsticks.

  • I've only tried Jones Road's lip products, but they make some of the best lipstick I own. Absolutely love the pigment, the actual lipstick container is slim and easy to put in my purse, and it's both hydrating and long-lasting. A bit spendy, but worth it for the higher quality beauty products in my opinion.

  • - The clear Miracle Balm is like chapstick for your face, I love it. It's great for people who are prone to dry areas. - My husband swears by the face pencils! They blend easily and are easy to apply, he'd been using liquid make-up and says that he will never go back. - The eye cream is also amazing and visibly reduces wrinkles

    I would love to see the product line expanded a bit more!

  • The Miracle Balm lives true to its name. I use the flushed shade as cream blush and Bronze as an easy bronzer. During the winter, I use the Au Naturel Miracle Balm all over my face to protect from wind burn while on the mountain. Excellent product.

  • Really disappointed, given it's from Bobbi Brown. Everything has a lot of glitter and feels more akin to Glossier than her main line. Super cheap in feel overall, everything in cheap plastic packaging.

    Everything.

  • Well, I pretty much only wear Jones Road these days. Clean, simple, easy to use line that is make-up artist worthy, but obviously created for every day wear for those of us who prefer a classic or no-makeup look. I love the Dusty Rose Miracle Balm perhaps most of all. After sunscreen I put this along my cheekbones, bridge of my nose and along my collarbone. A very easy way to look awake and glowing (esp. on Zoom) without any effort.

    The eyeliners have a bit of transfer issue for those of us with oilier lids.

  • I've only tried the Miracle Balm from this brand. I don't think it's a bad product by any means, but I do think you have to have the right expectation of what it is! I'm all about the no makeup makeup, but the shades I've tried have truly minimal color payoff-- they might as well have been colorless. I feel like they're best for adding hydration/dewiness/a bit of shimmer!
