She doesn't swatch the Pink Taupe quad but does mention that the quad has those 3 shadows as told to her by a SA (noted in the comments below the blog). When I swatched the quad, they were, again, similar but not quite the same as those unique beauties. Especially the one that turns up khaki/greenish in some swatches. I think that's the one claimed to be similar to Rosewood? The dusty pink shadow is definitely not it!
Hmm. I'm not sure what this means. Anyway. Mocha Glow looks good on me. Mixed with the Pink Sepia or is it Sepia Pink??? ( I can never remember) it looks kind of berryish. I like it.
Lol no it's me who got it mixed up. I was getting drowsy when typing. I read that they mixed Mocha Glow l/s with Pale Barley e/s and I was like, "What, Burberry would do that???" I get it now. XP I've held back on getting Sepia Pink because I feel it looks too "everyday"... I've been much bolder in trying out colours with Burberry than I ever have with MAC, mainly because they're so much more wearable, less loud, less "look at my lips!!", so I've invested in Pink Azalea and most recently, Bright Poppy. Wore it with NARS Bahama velvet lipstick liner pencil thing to tone down the berry and it brought my lips that much closer to the colour in the ad. I got Antique Pink as a gwp mini though and I really do like it, so I'll probably ask my mom to pick up the fall lippies when she's in HK. I won't get it till the end of the year though!!
Are these full size?
Yes, they're full size. And if the gloss trio is anything like last year's, they also come in their individual boxes inside one bigger box. Nice for gift giving (not that I plan on giving them away).

I was going to say no way because Pale Barley has to be Burberry's most popular eyeshadow color. I can't find it on Saks site either but it is on the Burberry site. I don't know the shipping cost though. Hopefully, it is just taking a while to restock. It took forever to get Mulberry back in stock. If there is a Nordstrom you know that carries it, maybe you could ask the counter manager if they know if it will be back in stock.
I agree w icecaramellatte, more likely out of stock than discontinued. They used it for their sping show so they may promote it again in the next few months with Siren Red lipstick, which I can't wait for! Hope you get your hands on Pale Barley tho, it's really pretty and so wearable.
