Burberry Winter Glow Collection: Gold Complete Eye Palette

The Holiday Winter Glow Collection from Burberry comes in enticing gold limited edition packaging, the collection is concise as normal and includes some re-promoted shades. I bought the Gold Complete Eye Palette (£40).


It contains a medium/deep satin brown, shimmery golden copper, shimmery golden toned khaki (the most complex shade, sometimes it looks almost pewter) and a shimmery golden beige.

I love these shades, I had wondered that the brown and copper would pull too warm but that's not the case at all. The shimmer level is perfect, Burberry shimmer is never over done.


The shades have a soft, smooth texture, great pigmentation, a long wear time and no fall out. The shades really do seem to just blend themselves. Though the initial release of complete eye palettes did not always mirror the quality of the single shadows, its seems that the more recent releases have the same high quality/performance as the singles.
This is one of my favourite palettes I've bought this year, its just a breeze to apply and I can go for a lighter look or add more of the brown to intensify it.


Its very much an easy to use, fuss free palette, containing a good mix of  complementary, wearable shades, with interesting tones.

I bought this from uk.burberry.com

  2. Wow! I assumed this palette would be too warm for me, and my skin is warmer than yours. Yet it looks fantastic on you! Okay, you have me rethinking this...
