Finally. I have the budget for Burberry!
Every year, I saved for one or two beauty lines that receive phenomenal reviews yet less well-known or less accessible. Last year's exploration were Paul and Joe Beaute and Edward Bess, in case you're curious.
Burberry Beauty in the US is available on burberry.com, nordstrom.com, saksfifthavenue.com and selected Nordstrom and Saks stores. To take advantage of the cashback on ebates, I placed half of my order online. I purchased the rest that was unavailable online via phone at Nordstrom South Coast Plaza. My thoughts on the line will come soon:) For the moment, let's enjoy Burberry incredible design!
The girl at Nordstrom South Coast Plaza didn't mention anything about GWP so this was a nice surprise. I heard Nordstrom San Francisco offered GWP with $125 order. Mine didn't reach this threshold, though. Gotta love Nordstrom customer service! She also gave me the samples of Burberry Sheer Luminous Foundation in No. 5 and No.7 and their fluid makeup base.
My Burberry adventure doesn't end here. I need the foundation for the winter and two blushes in Cameo and Tangerine. But they have to wait a little for my wallet to recover....
Until next time, have you tried Burberry beauty? What else will you recommend me to try?

First impression
Burberry check pattern is omnipresent. The case, the velvet pouch, the products themselves. It doesn't bother me at all although I'm not a Burberry admirer.
Luxe packaging and actually functional! I tend to not paying much attention to the packaging as long as it's sturdy and handy. Yet my jaw drops at this elegant luxurious case. Exquisite! I much prefer this metal case to the plastic from other designer brands like Dior or Chanel.
Whoa...you really went all out! I like your style :P And I am SO jealous of your haul! I have been wanting to try the Burberry eyeshadows for forever! So far I only have the Cameo blush and Field Rose Lip Mist. I REALLY want Rosewoood eyeshadow the most--but Midnight Brown and Pale Barley are definitely on my list too. Oh, and the Cameo gloss! Ugh I WANT! I can't wait for your reviews
ReplyDeleteThank you Becca for your sweet comment! I haven't done testing all the eyeshadows but so far they're awesome. And Cameo gloss is ultra-comfy on the lips! I'll give priority for Rosewood, Midnight Brown and Pale Barley;) How do you like Cameo blush? I've been eyeing it ever since Burberry launch....
DeleteNordstorm southcoast plazaaaaaaa omggggg i went once in feb , i really want to go again hahahah
ReplyDeletecant wait to hear ur reviews :D
Yumeko: Don't you love Nordstrom at South Coast? And I LOVE to visit Tokyo some time :) Thank you for stopping by!
DeleteWow! I have to try out some Burberry products some time, these look fantastic!
ReplyDeleteMakeupMonologue: Burberry is indeed fantastic! I think they execute the neutrals and the luxurious quality really really well.
DeleteFantastic haul!! Can't wait to see all of those eyeshadows swatched...they look like such amazing colors. How is the staying power of the Lip Mist?
ReplyDeleteI'm following you now, too :-)
Gummy: Thank you!! I'm loving their eyeshadows! I haven't tried the lip mist. What I got was lip cover so I expect full coverage and decent wear.
DeleteGreat post. I've always been intrigued by Burberry's makeup products. Is it worth the price? I agree with above, i'm excited to see these swatched and maybe do a make up look? please please please!? ^_^ I'm following you too, love your blog! xx
