Urg netaporter is kinda annoying. There was an attempt to deliver my package this morning while I was at work. They require a signature but I'm honestly fine with them leaving it on the front porch if it's in a not too obvious spot. Emailed the delivery company they use to see if they can deliver it at s better time or just leave it.
So annoying! I hope you get it soon!!

My package arrived. Can't wait to check it out when I get home from work. Very fast shipping considering they don't deliver on weekends so even though it took 6days ignoring the fact that I didn't recieve IT til today but if I'd been home yesterday could've recieved it, and that they don't deliver on the weekend, it took 3 days to Canada.

So had a look at my package. Netaporter wraps their packages in these nice sturdy black cardboard boxes. The quad has some heft but less than I'd expected. Love the shades so gorgeous and chic. Also, heavy card stock but in gold would be preferred to the glossy paper packaging. And that's me being nitpicky.

Also, I need advice. So the quad itself is in perfect nick, but there were some obvious dent lines in the burberry quad paper box. Do I make a complaint or just let it go. It's a small thing but it was so expensive the box should not have been bent

Ha, way to be confusing, Burberry! It really is a strange shade. It looks like more of a greyish-brown to the eye, but when the light catches it, the mauve sheen shows. I think Dusky is a more accurate description than Dusty.
Looking at it right now and in this lighting, I would never guess that it would be mauve. In the pan, it looks closer to the old Midnight Brown than Mulberry.
That works as well as I was thinking of getting Midnight Brown. I'm just not sure now if I need both, I definitely prefer the description of DM. :)

I'm very intrigued by the new line of lipsticks, there's 28 new shades and the formula is described as 'buildable and designed to give multiple lip looks with just one shade'.

If anyone has the Chanel Holiday palette from 2013 called Charming, the darkest shade in there is really very similar to Dusky Mauve, at least on my skin (and lids). The Chanel is just an itty bitty touch darker and greyer than Dusky Mauve.

That would be amazing if they lived up to that description!!

I just read they don't have any fragrance which is great news IMO. When are they supposed to be available?

I really love the look of the second one from the left in that second pic.

Just ordered Dusky Mauve and one of the new lipsticks in shade Rose Blush (that one sounded like a safe bet). They should arrive tomorrow.

I missed out on old eyeshadows, they are gone from the website.

Just put on my new quad. Just from initial application, I'm impressed by how buttery and pigmented the golden hued neutrals are.

I have to admit that I'm disappointed that Burberry decided to re-do everything.

I think my love affair with the brand is over. I don't like the new eyeshadows, and I will forever resent the heck out of them for d/cing Trench. I doubt I even try the new lipsticks.

Ugh.

Do you keep your boxes? If so, then you'll want to exchange. I don't keep mine so I wouldn't so long as the compact is fine.
