I do love the highlighter, the gold lipstick is fun, the glitter polish is cute, although nothing unique & the fresh glow fluid is working nicely as well.
Thanks for posting this! I've been so tempted. I already have the Burberry Gold Copper cream shadow, so I probably don't need this. I do like khaki however, but the texture and pigmentation sound horrible so $ saved. I look forward to your pic though just to seal the deal and not buy.

Wearing the gold cream eyeshadow today and I have a few thoughts.


  • This is THE standout of the new items. I've seen all of the newbies, and this is the best piece IMO.
  • For those who have last holiday (2014)'s nail polish, this reads similar on the lids. It's a totally cool, nudey pink with a bit of multicolor shine in certain lights. Here's 2 posts about last year's nail color: http://www.temptalia.com/burberry-gold-oxblood-iconic-colour-nail-polish-reviews-photos-swatches http://www.thebeautylookbook.com/2014/12/burberry-beauty-winter-glow-shades-of.html
  • This is totally unlike any other current gold out there- it's such a chic neutral!
  • It pairs perfectly with Chanel Or Blanc on the lower lashline (last year's holiday)

Most importantly from my perspective, I'm not allergic! Hooray!
Just saw this! Nice to have different perspectives. I love your color description! I'd buy it based on that alone! I'll patiently wait for swatches and more reviews...

I kind of want to backup but honestly I never finish a palette.
I hope you're getting some rest and feeling better. I have too many E/S palettes to justify backing up any palette no matter how magnificent it is. I've never finished one either.

When I try to pick up product, it crumbles. Pigmentation is terrible, it just doesn't build up & the shade is not gold, it pulls almost a light khaki & it's just dull. Fail for me, I'm most likely going to return it bc I will not be using it again.

I got the Dior gold cream holiday shadow & that is stunning!!! Creamy, pigmented & it's actually gold & shimmery.

Oh no---so sorry the E/S was so awful. Sounds like you found a winner in the Dior dept. ENJOY!!!

Yes!! Can not wait for the new season in January
Gets me through the winter!!!!

Yes, love Downton Abbey!! Nothing like a good British drama! Is anyone watching Home Fires on PBS? It's also Masterpiece Theater. It's set in a rural English village in pre-WWII.
