They come in a glass jar with a plastic screw lid, its a very chic design but due to the weight maybe not the best for travel.

I decided on Dusky Mauve (£25) which is a shimmery cool-toned mauve taupe. Its a lot more pigmented than I was expecting, and as I'm cool toned the mauve tones are more pronounced on me.
Shown below is just one application (this is with no primer after 5 hours wear).

The formula is interesting, it does not have that really cushiony, spongy feel nor a creamy, mousse texture instead its more firm with not as much slip, however it does go on smoothly and blends nicely, its just not as spreadable as some cream shadows.

Its very lightweight and not at all clingy or drying, the wear is quite good, though best to use a primer if you want it to last the day.

Overall I like the comfortable texture and think the shimmer/sheen finish is really pretty, its certainly made me want to order some more shades.

Some really helpful reviews for the cream shadows can be found via Mostly Sunny and Indigo Kir Royale.
I bought this from https://uk.burberry.com whom I believe have the fastest shipping known to man.
