Burberry Lip Glow is described as a natural lip gloss with a creamy touch and perfectly adherent texture. It has many benefits featuring a reflects light to create illusion of plumper, fuller lips; leaves lips supple, glowing with natural highlights and subtle iconic tones. 

Burberry claims a few protections Lip Glow does, such as hydrating formula that keeps the lips replenished, fine lines are filled from within, lips are naturally plumped. Simply apply the lip gloss as normal to get that fresh, moisturized look and a hint of color.

I did have a few regrets when I first tried the Burberry Lip Glow, firstly I dislike how it has a heavy fragrance scent and how it taste bitter while wearing the gloss, then I was not a fan of how sheer this lip gloss is. 

After months of trying to convince myself Burberry Lip Glow is an amazing lip gloss, I can finally say I am convinced! I am in Love! Nowadays instead of wearing it alone, I enjoy it more when worn on top of a lipstick with a similar shade as the gloss. ^^ 

Burberry Lip Glow Lip Gloss: Fondant Pink

There are 25 shades available in the Burberry Lip Glow range, I got the shade no. 21 Fondant Pink, which is a pretty baby pink color. The color can be build up to a glowy pink just as shown from the tube, or it can be worn as a sheer gloss.

Burberry Lip Glow comes in a simple but fancy transparent tube, even the box looks very high quality. The lip gloss has a smooth and creamy texture without it being too sticky, it is very comfortable during wearing time, my lips doesn't feel drys or chapped after the lip gloss worn out and I love that it gives a full / plumped lips! Lip Glow wore well for three hours for me, I don't expect much from a lip gloss as I know a majority of them won't last for a full day.

Burberry Lip Glow no. 21 Fondant Pink has a very strong fragrance and it taste bitter, not that I intentionally eat the lip gloss ~ I can't described the scent, it's not like a sweet fruity scent, nor a flora scent; it smells like perfume in general.  >.< blehh! I have found a solution to avoid the nasty scent, and that is to apply a lip balm that has a stronger scent than Fondant Pink before applying the lip gloss, it must be a scent you enjoy. I have been wearing Fontdant Pink with Hurraw Almond lip balm and the lip balm smell really takes away the awful smell of the Burberry gloss.

Pictures Post ♥ Burberry Lip Cover Soft Satin Lipstick - Rosewood


I have purchased a sample of the Burberry Lip Cover Soft Satin Lipstick from eBay seller alphabeautyuk, I believe it is an authentic product and alphabeautyuk is a legit seller. Isabella who runs Musing of a Muse has mentioned the seller in many of her posts and she recommends buying from them, so I trust her.

Comparing to my Burberry Lip Glow Lip Gloss which I have purchased from Nordstrom, this lipstick sample seems legit and all that. Before my purchase I did some research on the Burberry sample size lipsticks, I wasn't sure that even exist?! As I have only seen sample size lipsticks from drugstore brands, never high-end brand... Then I came across Temptalia who mentioned she owned one of those.

You can't really tell the size of the sample lipstick from these pictures, but you can click here to see the picture I have uploaded on my Instagram comparing the Burberry lipstick sample to a regular MAC lipstick. 

I think there are a few shades choices to choose from and I picked Rosewood because... LOl, you would probably understand if you're a Pretty Little Liars fan ;) Haha ~ I sometimes buy my products based on the packaging, sometimes based on products name and only a little percentage of my buying motives goes towards the actual product, which in this case result in the lipstick shade not being suitable for me.

I did a swatch on my arm and I absolutely love the formula, it glides on smoothly and I love that! Too bad the color seems too old for me, so I gave it to my mom. I still want to show you guys some pretty pictures ~

I don't ever regret anything I buy, unless I have actually tried the products and it didn't work for me or anything like that; but next time maybe I should pay more attention to the colors haha I wish Rosewood didn't look so old on me!

Do you own any Burberry lipsticks?
