Burberry Beauty

Is there a site that sells Burberry Beauty and offers free shipping (to Europe)?

Burberry themselves ship to many countries, although I'm not sure about Europe and I believe that Neiman Marcus ships internationally (again, not sure about Europe, but I think they do). Both of those would charge shipping, though.

Yeah, shipping from the UK is 15 euros, which is too much.. I'll go to London this summer, I guess I'll just shop there.

Wow, I've hit pan on my powder foundation... even my liquid ones aren't half-empty! =X Guess it just means I need to visit the counter soon, haha... altho out of respect for my wallet, I'll try to wait till August (don't laugh at me too hard!).

I find that Rosewood looks really nice with dusty purples and pinks, even some browns.  On some quick makeup days, I've used Girl Friendly paint pot (from the Fafi collection) underneath to bring out the pink tones more.  It's a really nice colour actually!  Gives a nice dewiness to the eyes. While I don't love each Burberry shadow I have, as you do Icecaramellatte, I do have to say they're quite beautiful when you find the right colour.  Currently my Lavender and Pearl Grey eyeshadows aren't making me look as lovely as I'd hoped they would but I keep trying because they're lovely themselves!

Thanks for the combo idea! I have girl friendly paint pot and just ordered rosewood e/s this week. And I have ton of other colors to pair it with.

THEY HAVE NEW PRODUCTS!!!!! Sorry, I am sooo surprised and excited, especially since I search every week or so for any news (what me, obsessed?). I took a few pictures but not the best as I was stunned just to see them so my brain wasn't functioning as it could have. =P I'll have to post those later as I don't know how to from my phone. Anyhoo, on to the goods. These are palettes with 2 cream shadows/liners and one powder shadow. One is olive & teal creams with a golden powder, the other blackened red and dark teal (reminds me of Beauty Marked and Deep Truth+Submarine!) with a bronzey powder. I don't think the cream counterparts will be great for summer tho as I was able to wipe off my swatches fairly cleanly just as I was leaving the store. I'm really intrigued tho and wish I had more time to play with them but I had only strolled in on a whim before dinner. I might still get on me of the palettes, just don't know which one! Almost forgot - fresh glow is now available in powder form AND in a bronzey shade! So each shade comes in both powder and liquid form. Texture is smooth and buttery as usual, subtle sheen as the original Fresh Glow. =D Oh, and Nude Gold  lip glow is back - definitely getting that!

Great info!! Thank you so much for posting. I'll call my Burberry SA tomorrow to see if it's available.

I went to Nordstrom Trend Show event today. Burberry booked me for the event so I stopped by. I ended up getting a few things although I didn't see any new stuff. Every time I asked for an item. The MA said, "oh I have to check if they have it." I ended up talking up the visiting MA. [...] He said that around July 1st they would have a new collection with a teal shadow and I think bronze??? not sure on the other shade because the teal really had my mind spinning. He also mentioned a Fresh Glow in 4 shades and one would be bronze and that the bronze would be really good on me. He said everything would be launched or relaunched in September (meaning the regular line (with the new manufacturer) would be back in stock in September.

As I type this it seems weird, a teal shadow?? I'm not even big on teal shadows but I'm definitely intrigued as Burberry doesn't really do shades like that. But this past Spring Collection with the bright colors was really great.

This might be the best thing. I love Burberry's neutrals but I don't know how much attention they attract. I think having a limited edition collection with brighter colors may do the trick. It might lure in a new customer who will end up buying from the permanent line as well.

I completely forgot that you mentioned this and that we discussed it! I just got some more info from the SA at Burberry Beauty in Toronto:

The new eyeshadows are waterproof!!! They come in two colours! Midday sun and hot tropic! Our best seller fresh glow now comes in powder form too(available in two colours)

Today [at Holt Renfrew] you get 15% money back onto a gift card and you get a gift from Burberry when you spend 151. ( full size black eyeliner , deluxe antique pink lipstick and a miniature of body fragrance )

I admit I'm a bit skeptical about the shadows being waterproof, or perhaps they just need a good two minutes to set, but they wiped away so easily with a dry tissue that it made me hesitant to purchase them.

I'll resize the pictures and post them in the swatch thread. =)

Pictures up! Mediocre swatches are there too but hopefully one of the awesome beauty bloggers out there will have better ones up soon! =)

Great news! I guess we both had Burberry on the brain today. I stopped at the Saks NY counter and wanted to see if anything new was in and the MA said it was due in July 15th.

Nordstrom is having their sale soon so I'm hoping they will have it even earlier. I guess the Nordstrom MA was right about the teal shadow and the bronze Fresh Glow.

Thanks for the pics!

Ok, so I caved. I ordered the following, and will be returning some Sephora purchases so I can get two GWP's (something's gotta give, right? At least they're unopened!). Prices are in Canadian dollars (how I wish I could order from Nordstrom - or from HK!)

$50 Midday Sun palette
$50 Hot Tropic palette
$35 Hibiscus lip glow
$66 Fresh Glow bronze
$54 Tangerine Blush
$54 Coral Pink Blush
===
$309

I figured "Go big or go home".... I guess the new powder foundation will have to wait till fall! If anything, I'm proud of myself for not getting the Fresh Glow powders - not like I really "need" the Fresh Glow bronze liquid as I'm not getting any kind of darker that fast. I'm just really curious about it and want to swatch it properly! I also wonder if it'll do better on my decolletage than other bronzers as Fresh Glow original did as a highlighter/primer under my foundation.

Hopefully these will be in my hands on Friday!

Found some promo images and swatches at this blog. http://lifeandlensofbeauty.blogspot.com/2013/06/burberry-summer-splash-palettes-swatches.html

An SA at Nordies called me for an event during the anniversary sale and said they would have the new products.

Here's another blog with swatches.

Any thoughts about the new summer palettes? How do the cream shadows perform? I saw them briefly but I didn't stop to swatch as I wasn't keen on cream shadows. But now I see Midday Sun and I really like the colours, it reminds me of Armani Coral Bliss palette. http://bestthingsinbeauty.blogspot.sg/2013/01/giorgio-armani-beauty-face-eye-palette.html

These remind me a lot of the Cle de Peau palettes that were released for spring 2013, but those have all powder products.

I am not a fan of palettes with cream and powder shadows mixed, so I will probably pass.

 

[Icecaramellatte]

I may pass on the palettes too. But I definitely want that Bronze Glow.

I've been meaning to put up pictures since picking them up over a week ago but time's been running away on me! Didn't realize how tough it was to catch good light while both the kids were napping. =P I hope to have some up today.

The cream shadows are a dry cream, if that makes any sense. Almost like when a paint pot is drying out but not nearly as difficult to pick up product! I do find them quite sheer tho, and as one of the bloggers posted they last long but rub off easily. As with all Burberry shadows, they are more for subtle colour than dramatic effects, altho that could be done in using the palettes together.

I played with Midday Sun last week and this week am trying out Hot Tropic. I haven't really done many combos lately so my creativity is pretty nil, especially with kiddie time constraints, but I find they're nice enough to have to do a quick eye with my ring finger. As they're sheer I like to pat some on before blending (unless that's what everyone usually does anyway, lol!) and I like to use a flat synthetic brush for application if I can.

As for the Fresh Glows, here is a picture of them side by side. I'll post more in the swatch thread.
