the burberry face

I decided to create a wearable neutral look with some of my new Burberry products (see the haul here!), and this is the final product. Just something quick to have coffee and run some errands!
A super light wash of Pale Barley with some Golden Brown liner in the lashline.
It is extremely rare for me to head out without eyeshadow on, if I'm in a rush I like to pop some Painterly Paint Pot on, then slap on a shimmery pale neutral shade and some mascara. Pale Barley is perfect for this sort of thing, but can also be paired with darker browns to create a more intricate look with a defined crease.
So sad that my Lip Mist in Copper has snapped, I would repurchase again but have to work out how to fix this one first. It's a glossy finish and a natural shade that goes with most of the looks I create.

  4. So pretty! I love the look of that lipstick! I can't say I've ever had to fix a lipstick, but I've seen this tutorial http://www.makeupandmacaroons.com/2011/03/how-to-fix-broken-lipstick.html maybe that will help?

  5. I can't believe the lip mist snapped - that's pretty devastating :( The whole look is chic, natural and lovely - makes sense since it's Burberry, I wouldn't expect anything other than chic. xo

    1. @Vita I was pretty shattered, it is my most used lippy right now but I didn't think I was being rough with it or anything! Going to maybe press it into a palette, and then try to fix the rest or something. I'll repurchase, but it will hurt.
