My Fall Favorites: Burberry

I've decided to break from writing about our Italy trip to do something a little different and tell you about my favorite beauty pieces for fall. There is also a lovely giveaway at the end, so read through!

Disclaimer: I am not an expert on beauty products. I know what I like and what works for me, and I just want to share it with you all! 


While I was in Texas last year, I went a little crazy purchasing Burberry makeup. I have enjoyed using everything! It's still a bit warm in Cyprus, and fall can come a little late here, but I have adored using Burberry Lip Cover in Antique Rose No.11. It is so creamy it glides right over my lips. With my skin tone the color looks very natural. Most of the time my lips are chapped, so I tend to wear a lip balm, and then apply the lipstick. With this Antique Rose, I don't need to! When I need a touch up or a simple gloss, I grab the Burberry Lip Glow in Heather Rose No.11. It is a natural lip gloss that adds a shine at the end of the evening. 

If you're having a difficult time finding these pieces, Stephane from Burberry's customer service suggested trying Lip Mist in Camilla Pink No. 207 for a Lip Cover and Burberry Kisses Gloss in Antique Rose No. 85 for the Lip Glow. I've not tried these, but I might have to when I'm back in Texas.

On to the fun part...

This past March a group of girlfriends and I went to Paris. Paris was AMAZING! I promise to do a post or two in the near future. My friend and I visited the Burberry on Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré. I wanted to purchase a 30ml My Burberry fragrance. I had first sampled it while at the Galleria in Houston, Texas. I knew I had to have it in my collection, but I waited. I'm glad I did. In Paris, I ended up getting the gift set that comes with a 90ml Eau de Parfum and a 100ml moisturizing body mist, which I carry in my handbag. It's not heavy or overpowering like some fragrances I've used. It is the perfect scent for fall! It takes me back to the few years Zach and I spent in New Hampshire as we drove down the winding country roads and soaked up every scent and color imaginable during the fall seasons.

Some of the fragrances include sweet pea and freesia, rain-tipped damask, and centifolia roses.You can find more about it here. 

It all smells wonderful! I've already used it several times on date nights and even brunch with the girls.
