OH wow, thank you!!!

LOL, I couldn't remember who was still looking for it.

Here's the breakdown (all in gold packaging like last year):

Burberry Eye Colour Cream #120- Festive Gold $30 (new)
Burberry Fresh Glow Luminous Base #01 $48 (in prior years, perm with new packaging)
Burberry Complete Eyeshadow Palette- Gold $60 (last year's palette)
Burberry Nail Polish- #300 Military Red $22 (perm, LE packaging)
Burberry Nail Polish- #449 Festive Gold $22 (new)
Burberry Kisses- #120 Festive Gold $33 (new)
Burberry Kisses- #109 Military Red $33 (perm, LE packaging)

Looks like there are also probably glosses and a LE version of My Burberry with this collection, but not on Sephora yet.

Huh!
You're welcome! It's not often that my reaction is to run here and put it on blast but I knew someone was looking for it- and that things will likely fly with F&F!

I just returned Stormy Green Effortless Kohl eyeliner, very sadly. I would have kept it but it'd only be for the packaging. It applies smoothly and has great pigmentation, but it isn't green enough on me nor, more importantly, allows for much smudge-play before it sets, or at least it didn't for me. However, it *does* smudge to my lower lids(as most liners do). I also have Chestnut Brown and it performs the same. =( But with Sephora's new policies (refunds only within 30 days) I have kept it for now. I find the only liners which don't give me raccoon eyes is Marc Jacobs' Beauty Brown(out), specifically. With all the liners I have I couldn't justify keeping this aside from the prettiness in the packaging I got to handle every morning!

Having said all that, Antique Gold is on my list. It looks different enough to add to my stash. =P And Eye COlour Cream in Mink gives such a gorgeous subtle smokey eye. Those I'll have to get more of!

It's funny, I asked the SA about the Holiday collection this week and all she mentioned was gold packaging. She didn't say much else so I figured there wasn't much new if anything. I'll check out the eyeshadow in the pot and the gloss and nail polish but I'm not that excited. That might be a good thing.

I'm sorry that you've had that experience.

That said, I've found that smudging in some formulas is a YMMV experience- largely because everyone's body chemistry is different. Likewise, whether you have oily lids or not, what base products you're using, etc, etc, etc.

I say that because I have Pale Grape and haven't experienced those issues. It stays put for me. Storm Grey performed the same for me as well.

I would love if Festive Gold cream eyeshadow would be more pigmented than Dior's fusion mono Blazing one from state of gold collection!ive been eyeing on the Military Red for a long time so it would be a nice adding with the gold packaging! I have the palette from last year so the cream shadow and a lipstick maybe!

What is so special about the packaging? Am I missing something? I looked it up and it didn't look spectacular, like for example the MAC Guo Pei.

It's close but not actually the same as last year.

Last year's red was the old formulas, so it was Oxblood in gold packaging. In 2015, it's Military Red in gold packaging- in the new formula.

2015's gold is actually different, at least in the nail polish. This will be my third year of Burberry holiday collection golds- and they're all different.
