Nordstrom Trend Show, Burberry New Lipsticks and GWP

This Saturday, September 15, is Nordstrom Bellevue's Fall Trend Show, and the Burberry Beauty counter will have three new lipsticks in a new matte formula.  They will also be offering two fabulous gifts with purchase!

The new formula is called Velvet, and offers a long-wearing matte finish that will still hydrate the lips.  There will be three shades available now, and 12 in total to follow. I am anxious to try these because I find Burberry's existing lipsticks quite hydrating ... while historically I have found matte lipsticks drying on my lips, I know that if anyone can make a hydrating matte, it's Burberry!

Here are the three shades available at the Trend Show - Military Red, Pink Apricot, and Pink Azalea:

Burberry Velvet lipstick - Military Red

Burberry Velvet lipstick - Pink Apricot

Burberry Velvet Lipstick - Pink Azalea

These shades look gorgeous, especially Military Red and Pink Azalea.  As I said, there will just be these three for now (in a limited quantity for the Trend Show - if you are interested, definitely pre-order), but more are coming soon.

Burberry will also have two gifts with purchase.  The first is available with a $150 purchase, and includes a full-size Pale Rose eye shadow:

The second is a 3-in-1 eye/lip/cheek cube, available with a $200 minimum purchase.  Unfortunately, the only available image is in black and white:

Angie from Bellevue's Burberry counter says that the color is a little darker than Cameo Pink (you can see Cameo Pink lipstick along with a few others at The Beauty Look Book here and at Cafe Makeup here) and can be applied anywhere on the face, but she particularly recommends the cheeks and lips.

Also - those eye palettes I wrote about in this post will be available in November, and Angie is currently accepting pre-orders for them.   I can't wait to see these palettes!

If you would like to place an order, call Angie at 425-455-5800 x1043, or email Angie.Streeter@nordstrom.com.  She is always very helpful, and she will ship your order for free! Tell her you found her info here at Pretty Addicted.*

Burberry Beauty Fall 2012 Palette Images and Launch

It's all Burberry all the time over here lately.  Not a bad thing if you ask me!  These are the new Burberry Eyeshadow Palettes launching for fall:

Not the most hi-res image, but it's what I've got for now.  There are six of them (I was originally told there would be four)!  I think the diagonal design is interesting.  It's not what I expected; I thought they'd be squares similar to the Sheer Summer Glow palette from this year's summer collection.  I'm not sure about how I feel towards it aesthetically (doesn't seem classic like the rest of the line), but I like that you get more of the mid-tone shades that you are likely to use the most.

I'm told that these will hit counter in the U.S. along with the rest of Burberry's Fall line (matte foundation, new eyeshadow shades, new lipsticks, etc. I mentioned in this post) in Mid-August.  More info to follow as I receive it!
