But off the top of my head, I would say that Pale Barley is more golden taupe and Storm Grey is more silver taupe. Hope that helps!
That does, thanks! I'm guessing then it's a bit bluer than Rosewood then, or that Rosewood is pinker, to put these in context. Can't wait till it shows up at the Burberry store!
Does anyone see anything new besides the Nude Blush Eye Palette No. 12? I'm curious about the Slate Blue Eye Palette No. 20. I wonder if they meant the Slate Blue eye shadow single in No.15 (Midnight Blue is No. 20). Exciting if there's another eye palette though!!
I think it's a new palette while reusing a name of an existing shadow. Reminds me of MAC, haha, altho they usually use LE/DC items. I do hope the blues are actual blues and not blue-greys.
I only have their gold polish and while it's lovely, it chips without a topcoat within the first 24hrs. It could be that it's a metallic (gold from the holidays) but at $25Cdn, I'd expect more. I already overthink my butter London purchases and they perform better!
My very first Burberry blush Hydrangea came in fine style this evening snuggled well hidden by UPS in my recycle bin, lol. Beautiful and perfect except bit chatty and fussy asking for her sibling the Coral Pink block next to her on the Nordies site. Hydrangea was told in no uncertain terms that there will be no siblings anytime soon. Still whining and pouting but she will get over it!
You have such restraint! I, uh, have all the blushes now...*hides behind hands*. I was, however, able to buy them cheaper in Asia. Finding that out did not help keep my collection growth at a healthy rate! But I've slowed down a lot lately. Enjoy Hydrangea Pink - it will be lovely for spring/summer!
Also, have any of you tried the effortless kohl pencils? I am interested in them, but they seem to be just kohl eyeliners. Are they worth shelling out the money?
To be honest, I'd say no. I have Oxblood as the shade seemed the most versatile but it's a bit drying on the lips, and I'd rather get the Oxblood lipstick anyway. Black Poppy would only work on the eyes and Stone can be a highlighter but for warm skin tones it might show more grey (perhaps a bit warmer than MAC's Stone lip pencil, for those who might remember). For $30+Cdn, I can find better multitasking items that have more product, like NARS multiples.
Also, be on the lookout! I was told my by SA that there is going to be a pretty good Burberry Gift with Purchase at Nordstrom sometime in June. I am getting my wishlist prepared for when it pops up!
Dangit, really? What is usually the minimum purchase amount? I need to replace my powder foundation and Antique Rose has been on my wish list for too long! I'll have to find someone to get it for me tho. Nordstrom won't ship Burberry to Canada and, strangely, neither will Burberry itself.
The last time I went to the counter the SA was trying to get me to get Dark Spice but I had spring colors on my mind. I will think about this one again. I've been wanting Russet blush for awhile now.
Russet was my first blush purchase. I love it on the lids too for a monochromatic look. I have Dark Spice but haven't been wowed by it. I'll have to give it another go for a week to see what the love is all about.
