Burberry Beauty Light Glow Natural Blush in Earthy: The Perfect Contour and Bronzer for Cool-Toned Skin | Review

Purchased by Me (Affiliate Links)

While it has been some time since I last posted a Burberry Beauty review that should not be understood as a loss of interest on my part. In fact, I cherish and covet by collection of Burberry products, and their blushes and eyeshadows remain among the highest quality on the market. They are ultra-finely milled, beautifully pigmented, and glide across the skin effortlessly and evenly.

Their blush formula neither emphasizes pores, nor does it accentuate any skin imperfections. Burberry Beauty Light Glow Natural Blush formula is a glorious long-wearing powder that is creamy to the touch, and it creates the highly sought after natural glow from within.

Earthy is a hidden gem from their Light Glow Natural Blush range not because it is unknown, but instead because for cool-toned beauties it is the perfect bronzer and contour that is nestled into their blush line. I am not suggesting that it won't be enjoyed by the warm skin-toned set, but instead that it singularly puts an end to the age-old hunt for a bronzer and contour that won't oxidize into a ghastly shade of orange on those with cool-toned skin.

I have owned and loved Earthy for well over a year, and can't for the life of me tell you why I am only just now reviewing it. I will say, however, that it looks far more used now than it does in these pictures!

Burberry suggests that their Light Glow Natural Blush is,

A lightweight blush that gives the skin a bright fresh glow. Burberry Light Glow contains silicones for effortless and even application and wild rose extract for moisturizing benefits. The complexion glows with natural looking radiance. Apply to the hollow of the cheeks to slim the face or apply to the cheek bone to highlight.

Wild Rose (Rose Canina Fruit Extract) is included in the formula for its moisturizing benefits and its ability to impart a healthy glow. It does, however, also include fragrance which may bother those among you with a sensitivity to scented makeup. I happen to love the smell.

In the pan the shade appears to be a tan/brown neutral shade that neither leans too warm, nor too cool. For a very thoughtful review from someone with warmer toned skin than I-- please refer to my friend Sunny's review here.

 In direct sunlight one can more easily see that there is no underlying orange hue.

Formula: This airy micro-powder ensures rich shades. Silicones provide an easy glide.

Benefits: An effortlessly natural fresh complexion and a healthy glow.

Protection: Provides moisturizing benefits.

On the skin Earthy has a very light sheen, but it is neither a true satin, nor a true matte. Instead it resides somewhere in-between. The texture is remarkably soft, and it just melts into the skin leaving behind the most natural finish.

Earthy will appeal to lighter to medium skin-tones, but if you have darker it may not show up enough to be worth the purchase.
