just love it; a combo of orange, gold, beige and yellow; really opesn up my green eyes, pair it with khaki; quality is true Burberry. I do find though that these e/s's need a primer underneath, as all do really.

This is pure luxury. I love this shade. The case is on its own - impressive. What's inside is a lovely, buttery textured eyeshadow. I would say a similar shade would be MAC Grain maybe? It's a great overall color for me. Not chalky. Not glittery. Very classic. I'll be buying more Burberry cosmetics. Very impressed!

Burberry makes my holy grail eyeshadows. Finally I've found CHIC eyeshadows that aren't filled with shimmer and glitter, or over-powering *cough*Mac force-field*cough*, like so many brands are these days. I wear the Porcelain as my natural everyday look, with Almond in the crease. I also adore the metal square cases that they are packaged in, which are perfect for stacking.

I have the shade No. 09 Rosewood and it is a beautiful light purpley taupe colour. I won't lie, this eyeshadow is quite expensive but it is of the highest quality. It is buttery smooth and goes on like a dream. I would highly recommend these eyeshadows if you feel like a splurge.

Ridiculously expensive but lovely in every way. A gorgeous case in a little pouch houses a very wearable ivory color in a formula so buttery and easy to blend. Love it and all the Burberry line.

I didn't plan to be impressed, but his shadow the smoothest, creamiest eye shadow ever. Even when I tried some on with a quick swipe of my finger, it swept on like butter and blended like a dream. Plus, it has staying power. As the name suggests, this is indeed a "sheer" shadow, but that makes for a gorgeous highlight or wash of neutral color. It is buildable, but I think that the color is beautiful when sheer. This neutral cream color has a faint golden shimmer that is subtle and is appropriate for any age. It isn't over the top at all.
While the $29 (US) price tag is practically criminal, this is a beautifully formulated product that lives up to the claims. You get 2,5g / .088oz in the stunning and well made case, so it should last you a long, long time.
I'm not sure that I would build a collection of these eyeshadows at this price point, but I would definitely recommend getting one or two everyday colors.

I got No. 3 and use it as a base and highlight shade. I wouldn't call this porcelain, its a light ivory. The Burberry eyeshadows are on the sheer side so I did have to layer this color on twice to get some payoff. It has a touch of ashiness at first but it goes away after I blend it in with my lid color. I do have to say the formula goes on very silky and smooth.
