Thank you for sharing your experience - I'm glad Burberry is showing up at other stores. The Nordie's near me has them but there's never anyone there to help you.
JerseyGirl -- where in NJ are you? I'm in Northern NJ, newark/bloomfield area and looking for a burberry counter. Haven't come across one

Yes highlighter overload. I'm sure we can glow all over for years...

Got my burberry fresh glow fluid base in nude radiance and burberry wet dry silk shadow in khaki green in the mail :) The sephora gwp was a mini kat von d liner in trooper so that'll be nice to try out as well. The cardboard packaging alone feels so luxe.

It's true even the boxes are gorgeous. It's a shame to throw them away! How do you like the khaki?

Totally. I need to get rid of some boxes, and maybe just keep my chanel and burberry ones. I haven't tried it yet. It's looks fairly shimmery in the pan and a bit lighter than I expected. What's interesting to me about burberry shadows, is just looking at them, you can tell they will be buttery as he#@!

So I've been wearing the nude radiance and khaki green today. Both products are sheer but buildable. I only used one pump of nr and it is extremely subtle yet quite lovely and has not irritated my sensitive skin yet. t I found this works for my whole face for an extremely subtle glow. The shadow is a medium muted green, very neutral and in line with the aw collection look. can't wait for my kisses lipstick in beige nude to come. nervous as this is the msot I've ever paid for a lipstick. Usually I don't go higher than mac, or the couple times I found high end lipsticks that were severely discounted. I love the weight of the packaging. The plaid pattern is embedded which is quite a unique touch. No noticeable scent n the nr.

So glad you are liking the glow and the shadow. I haven't tried the kisses lipstick, yet. I have a few of the earliest formula and the taste was too much for me. My favorite color was rosewood but I couldn't wear it anymore because of the fragrance and taste. I hope the new ones aren't like that. Let us know how you like it.

Yeah, I'm happy, especially since the luminizer was 54. My goodness. I don't buy foundation, and only drugstore concealer so I guess it evens out. Yeah, the kisses formula isn't scented which is good. I don't get why so many high end brands scent their products. It's not good for the skin.

Purchased the Cashmere foundation today and will test drive it tomorrow. My shade (Chestnut) is looking a leeeetle bit orange though...

So the Burberry Cashmere Foundation is a little bit of an anomaly. It appears, in every way, to be much too warm and orange. As I was applying it on my face today, I was dreading what the color would look like once it set and possibly oxidized...

But it looks fine! I don't know if it's the other components I used with it (tinted powder, highlighter, etc.) but it doesn't look orange at all in pics or in person.


As for the finish, I'd definitely say they are right in saying that it's a soft matte foundation; the appearance it gives is very skin like and soft. It's also extremely lightweight, which is very nice. I'll be test driving it more in the next few days (along with 2 other foundations... yes I've gone foundation crazy this month) to see how it holds up in the humidity.

Thank you for your thoughts on the foundation. I'm thinking of getting it. Do you know the difference between this new foundation and the Velvet one?

I was never able to try the Velvet because the shades in that particular formula never ran dark enough.

Has anyone with NC20-25 skin used the Sheer Luminous Nude Powder? I don't know which shade to pick, reviews and swatches are scarce and Sephora doesn't provide shade descriptions.

I got to visit it today at Yorkdale Hudson's Bay. It's not near the mall entrance, it's near Giorgio Armani.

The rep there said that the Storm Green and Antique Gold eyeliners are limited edition. Is this true? It doesn't show that on the Sephora site but I don't know if it would anyway. The liners haven't come in yet, but there is a grand opening happening next weekend (26th & 27th) with a GWP.
