Burberry unveiled its latest make-up look during its Womenswear February 2016 show. Previewing new additions to Burberry make-up inspired by the runway collection, the look is influenced by the graphic sequin embroidery and electric colour palette seen at the show.
Developed by Burberry Make-up Artistic Consultant Wendy Rowe, under the creative direction of Chief Creative and Chief Executive Officer, Christopher Bailey, the look features:
- Dark and metallic eyes with the opulence of glitters loosely applied to the outer corners of the eyes and along the top of the cheekbones, to add a playful jewel-encrusted effect with subtle shine
- Illuminated skin with a flawless finish
- Dewy nude lips

APPLICATION TIPS BY WENDY ROWE
FACE
- Sweep the Face Contour pen under the cheekbones, jawline, eye sockets and along the nose to sculpt and softly define
- Apply Fresh Glow Luminous Fluid Base to the face, ears and décolletage like a moisturiser to give an iridescent glow, followed by Fresh Glow B.B. Cream
- Apply Burberry Cashmere Foundation on the T-Zone for a flawless soft-matte finish
EYES
• Create a structured eye using Effortless Blendable Kohl in Golden Brown No.03 to elongate the eyes. Finish with Bold Lash Mascara in Ebony No.01 just at the roots of the lashes for a modern feel
• For a dark eye with glitter accents, use Eye Colour Cream in Charcoal No.114 to intensify the top and bottom lash line. Then apply Effortless Blendable Kohl in Jet Black No.01 along the lash line and inside the eyes and Bold Lash Mascara in Ebony No.01 to top and bottom lashes. Finish by applying Shimmer Dust over Fresh Glow Highlighting Luminous Pen to the corner of the eyes and brushed across the top of the cheekbones
• For a more intense, disheveled eye look, apply Eye Colour Cream in Charcoal No.114 to the socket line keeping the shape quite structured to elongate the eye. Add Effortless Blendable Kohl in Jet Black No.01 along the water line and finish with Bold Lash Mascara in Ebony No.01 on the outer lashes. Finish applying Shimmer Dust over Fresh Glow Highlighting Luminous Pen, patting it over the eye lids and cheekbones
LIPS
• Apply just one layer of Burberry Kisses in Nude Beige No.01 to give understated luminosity and a dewy finish
