Burberry Beauty works very well with Asian skin tones and facial structures. I have the full face range and decided to share with you all of what I like to think Burberry Beauty is. I like my colours very neutral, and Burberry is exactly that.. Classic. I like to think that I can achieve both looks; day & night with this carefully selected set and so makeup prepping did seem longer than I normally would spend. Liquid sheer foundation ( Trench No. 05) is great to hide blemishes, however I am quite fearful of smeers. The No.05 colour is a little darker than most nude shades, but I recently caught a bit of a tan :p I religiously use the sheer powder foundation to smoothen the liquid foundation, and gives you a very natural coverage (the photoshop look).
I have always liked the smokey eye effect; as it accentuates and defines your eyes and no doubt make my eyes look wider and bigger, which this is usually what we want as Orientals. The palette I used was Burberry Taupe Brown eye shadow No.7. It was very soft to apply with an easy applicator. The Burberry eyeliner was very soft, not harsh at all; and so I used the applicator to smudge the liner into the shadow to create the thick smokey look.
Lastly, my favourite part to the makeup prep are my lip colours. No makeup is complete with a full lip colour. So for the day, I have this gorgeous Burberry Lip Glow in Nude Beige, and for the evening I have the transformation colour of the Burberry Lip Cover in Union Red. I loved how natural the makeup looked; rather natural yet empowering with the Union Red especially. Before I walked out the door, I felt confident and was ready to enjoy my evening with the girls.
Many thanks to Style Slicker for taking the shots for me.
