New Beauty Brand Review: Burberry Beauty

by PJ on Wednesday, September 22, 2010

in -Burberry, 2010 Fall, makeup

Burberry Beauty Lip Cover 20 Hibiscus 1(Lip Cover in 20 Hibiscus)

.

Most of my favorite beauty brands (especially when it comes to makeup) are designer brands. Beauty lines from Chanel, Dior, YSL, Anna Sui, Jill Stuart and Paul & Joe are beautiful extensions of their respective fashion brands as well as credible makeup/skincare lines in their own right.

On July 12th, Burberry Beauty was launched in the UK, and it is currently available exclusively in Harrods. Even though I am not a Burberry person, the look of the products did catch my attention. A fashion brand’s beauty line can help convey the image of the brand to a wider audience, through the colors and packaging (among other things), and, after seeing the products in person, I think Burberry has done well in both aspects.

Kao Sofina Aube Couture Spring 2011 Makeup 1(image/info from www.cosme.net)

.

Sofina Aube Couture will release Designing Puffy Cheek in Japan on December 7th. (Cosme.Net hasn’t mentioned how many shades will be available.)

I am assuming that this is part of Aube Couture’s spring 2011 makeup collection. (The line tends to release its seasonal collections relatively early. Its fall 2010 makeup collection was out on June 15th.) I will update this post with more information later on.

SUQQU Fall 2010 Makeup Website 1

(image from www.suqqu.com)

.

I stopped by the SUQQU counter in London’s Selfridges a couple of days ago and tested items from the brand’s fall 2010 makeup collection. All the colors in the new Blend Color Eyeshadow palettes are very smooth and silky. (The top two shades are shimmery, and the bottom two shades are softly matte.) Even the eyelining shades are more or less as smooth and silky as the other shades and they have a soft and airy quality. (The eyelining shades in the previous Blend Eyeshadow palettes were slightly drier than the other shades in the palettes.)

.

My favorite one is 01 Kakitsubata (pictured above and below). As pointed out by Hiroko (see the link for swatches), Kanebo-owned brands/ lines often bring out eye palettes with medium gold and dark blue. Intriguingly, I was never interested in this color combination until I saw this palette.

Also, according to one of SUQQU’s sales assistants:

Creamy Glow Lipstick (which is part of SUQQU’s fall 2010 makeup collection in Japan and whose information is already up on SUQQU’s global website) won’t be launched in the UK until March 2010.

Powder Eyeshadow and Powdery Cheeks, which have been discontinued in Japan, will still be available in the UK for the foreseeable future. (See my review of Powdery Cheeks in Ashibi and Oshiroibana here.)
