Burberry Beauty Spring/Summer 2011: Easy Elegance That Goes Well with Almost Anything - Makeup and Beauty Blog

Burberry Dazzler Calorie-free Glow Chroma in Misty Blush No. 8 on cheeks and Lip Cover in English Rose No. 23 on lips

To say i merely "walks down the street" in her signature Burberry trench coat doesn't exercise justice to the coat. Walk? Nay. Ladies strut in Burberry. 🙂 Both in their coats and in beauty products from the Burberry Beauty brand. Like Burberry'southward coats, pieces in the makeup line exude elegance with a timeless ease that wears well with pretty much anything.

Despite non having been on the makeup scene long (less than a yr!), with only a couple of seasonal collections nether their check pattern belt, the company has done a good job bringing their luxuriously unfussy sensibility to the products I've seen.

With their Spring/Summer 2011 release, an 11-slice collection of express edition and repromoted products for optics, lips and cheeks, Burberry sought to channel the same effortless await they like to ship downwardly the Burberry runway. Sculpted cheeks softly glow in pink, rose and tangerine; rosy nude lips blow kisses; and optics, softly defined with pulverization shadows in beige, rose and chocolate-brown, charm unsuspecting passersby.

I looked at four of the new pieces today…

Clockwise from the lower left: Lip Cover in Delicate Rose No. 22, Light Glow Blush in Earthy Blush No. seven, Light Glow Blush in Misty Chroma No. 8 and Lip Embrace in English Rose No. 23

Burberry Beauty Leap/Summertime 2011

• Lite Glow Blush in Bawdy and Misty ($42 each)

  These powder blushes were made for runway cheeks, but I mean that in the best possible fashion. When I wear them, I look more similar I'thou running to grab the bus, just I think that'southward a good look too. 🙂 Matte neutral chocolate-brown Bawdy and matte warm pinkish Misty wait natural on the cheeks, almost like goose egg at all. I find myself having to build the color up with three layers, but lighter lovelies might prefer one or two (and might even try using Earthy equally a bronzer, likewise). If non for the toll, I think I'd like them even more than. MAKEUP AND BEAUTY BLOG RATING: B

• Lip Encompass Lipsticks ($30 each)

  Whoever dreamed upwards this lipstick'southward magnetic cap deserves a raise. The click it makes is most every bit satisfying as Coca Cola on a hot day. Rosy brown English Rose and bully pink Delicate Rose impart a soft sheen and subtle color to lips. Neither shade will stick around through dinner, but they do last about iii hours between meals. The yummy light flavor and scent remind me of Sweet Tarts and roses, and the texture feels light, moisturizing and flossy on my lips. I like them both, but I don't like the price. MAKEUP AND Dazzler Weblog RATING: B+

Swatches from the left: Lite Glow Blush in Earthy Blush No. 7, Light Glow Chroma in Misty Blush No. 8, Lip Cover in Delicate Rose No. 22 and Lip Comprehend in English Rose No. 23

Light Glow Blush in Bawdy Chroma No. vii on cheeks and Lip Embrace in Delicate Rose No. 22 on lips

The colors aren't going to spark whatever revolutions, but the prices might (they're correct in line with Chanel and Dior). I feel there are some very flattering, solid staples here, and if you lot lean toward the Trish McEvoy/Bobbi Chocolate-brown makeup aesthetic with shades on the quieter side, you might really discover a lot to like. The collection is bachelor at present at select Nordstrom stores and also online.

Your friendly neighborhood dazzler aficionado,

Karen

P.S. I just got back from my date with the personal stylist at Nordstrom. I'll requite y'all the 411 tomorrow, but in short, it was Absurd!
