Burberry Eye Palette no. 5 Dark Spice





After reviewing a lot on lipsticks, here it's time to move on to eye shadow. This is the Complete Eye Palette - Dark Spice no.5 from Burberry Beauty (£40 for a palette). I love the package and the palette itself which is kind of gun metal. The palette comes with a small bag with 3 eye shadow applicators which I think it's not much useful because they are too small and not much practical to use. So I prefer to apply them with my own eye shadow brushes. The customized quartet palette contains densely pigmented eye colors; luminising base highlighter, red brown and dark brown to add shape, and black color for intense liner and making smoky eyes. 
The formula of the eye colors is satin smooth silicones and quite creamy when apply on eye lid. The eye shadows are coordinated very well and enrich the skin and remain vibrant all day. 
I had paired the eye colors with red, deep pink, and pink nude lip colors and they best match with the pink nude lips. The colors are wearable for both day and night looks. In order to create a night look, I just added more dark colors to make the smoky look. One of my all time makeup gurus on youtube, Momay Pa Plean, said that this eye palette is a very good choice for a sophisticated look in which I do agree ^^
