Little Stash of Burberry - May 2013
Way back in July 2012, I first posted about my stash of makeup from Burberry Beauty (you can find the July 2012
here). Now, 10 months down the road, I have collected a
little bit more items from this brand.
Overview of the items in their boxes ...
The packaging are a little bit dirty as I reach for them a lot...
You can find swatches of the items are at the end of the post.
First is the Velvet Foundation..
And also the Fresh Glow..
I can't remember the exact prices, but they are around $70-ish.
Instead of layering the Velvet Foundation after the Fresh Glow, what I like to do is mix half a pump of Fresh Glow with slightly more than half pump of Velvet Foundation on the back of my hands. This will help to sheer out the foundation and also to add some glow to the skin. If you want more coverage, just adjust the ratio of the foundation and/or the Fresh Glow accordingly..
I have been using this method for the past many months and even when I switch around my liquid foundations, I will still add some Fresh Glow to whichever liquid foundation or BB Cream I am using. I am like sort of addicted to dewy sheen (but not oily) that Fresh Glow imparts. :)
Fresh Glow also be used alone as a highlighter. Love the sheen that Fresh Glow imparts.

I have bought 2 more of the Sheer Eye Shadow, Porcelain No.03 and Midnight Brown No,21. They are at $46 a pop.
Each eye shadow has its own velvet pouch, mirror and a sponge tipped applicator.
You can tell how much I love Porcelain, since I have hit pan on one of the corners. I believe I may hit pan on Midnight Brown soon, since I have been using nothing but these 2 eye shadows of late.
I will usually use Porcelain all over my lids first regardless of whatever colour combinations I am wearing that day. I find that using this shade all over subtly brightens up my eyelid area.
Midnight Brown, it is in a short is a shimmery brown eye shadow. Haha.. Doesn't sound amazing does it? But I can assure you, it is a very very beautiful shimmery brown that you will not regret buying.
These Burberry's eye shadows are really soft, silky and (in my opinion) are worth the $46.
I currently own 2 full sized Lip Mists as well. Nude Peach No. 212 and also Feather Pink No. 209, each lippie is $43.
I really
♥ the Lip Mists as they are very moisturising, they don't sink into my lip lines and they don't feel heavy on the lips.
Here's the swatches on the back of my arms..
