Burberry Blush (09) Lipstick ($30.00 for 0.13 oz.) is a pretty-in-pink touched by coral with very subtle gold micro-shimmer and mostly opaque color coverage.   It has a lovely creamy texture and a slightly glossy look. I find Burberry’s formula fairling moisturizing and long-wearing–about four hours with this shade–and comfortable to wear.

I think this is an incredibly flattering shade–it’s not too warm or cool, it’s just that right shade that will work for a variety of skin tones.   On those with pinker lips, it will turn a beautiful shade of rose, and on my lips, that hint of coral seems to strengthen than when just swatched on the skin.  The lipstick is rose-scented, though, so those with sensitive sniffers beware! I don’t really sense any taste, though. :)

  • Product: 29/30
  • Value: 8/10
  • Ease of Use: 4/5
  • Packaging: 4/5

RECOMMENDATION: Burberry’s new lipsticks are a nice option for those with drier or more needy lips, because the formula wears well without drying lips out.  This particular shade will complement a lot of skin tones because of its more neutral undertones.

AVAILABILITY: Nordstrom

    I’ve never heard of this brand, but that’s a gorgeous colour and very wearable

    • FlyingBuffalo says:

      Burberry is a designer brand known for their iconic plaid print. I think.

      • Dawn says:

        Oh yes, forgot about that. I know about Burberry check and can’t stand it – so chavvy lol. Didn’t know they did cosmetics so didn’t make the association

  2. Lisan says:

    Lovely colour, looks very good on you! :D

    Oh my! Is the lipstick safe enough to be used on cheeks? LOLX. It’s such a lovely shade!

  4. Ashley says:

    Oh my, it’s gorgeous! Great for you.

  5. Tess says:

    Wow, I really like it! It’s just that it’s almost my natural lipcolor, because my lips are quite pigmented..

  6. Adriana says:

    I want it! Hahaha, maybe a Crosswires dupe, right??

    It looks so pretty!

  8. Madilynn says:

    This looks really good on you! I think it should be your staple color.

  9. Hilana says:

    This is such a sensible colour. I think every woman should have a colour like this in her lipstick collection because it really is one of those shades that could do no wrong.

  10. mayra says:

    This is such a pretty shade on u christine, i would buy but $30 that way too much for my budget, lol.

  11. Regina says:

  13. ace says:

    thats a beautiful shade! it looks perfect for school/work!!

  14. Laura says:

    very nice, lovely shade

  15. Eileen says:

    That is, indeed, a lovely color on you. I love the quality of Burberry’s lipstick, but I hate the case it comes in. I’m not a big fan of the needlessly large, sharp angled case. The lipstick is beautiful on the lips, but the case is uncomfortable in the hand.

  16. Leea says:

    It looks very flattering on you! :) A lovely shade.

  17. Alexis says:

    What a pretty everyday work color.

  18. Jessica says:

    I love this colour, so gorgeous!

  19. Evanna says:

    Oh God, this is lovely! I’ll need to investigate on one…

  20. Opheliana says:

    Damn, I want their make up, but I can’t find anywhere to buy them in sweden.

  21. Jennifer says:

    LOVE This!
    Might have to splurge on this.

    Is there a MAC L/S dupe?

  22. lolo says:

    A dupe for this is MAC See Sheer or Viva Glam Cyndi.
    Don’t waste your money on overpriced lipstick!!

    • Christine says:

      Neither of those look like this on me, just a heads up! See Sheer is more orange, Cyndi is redder!

    • Jennifer says:

      Thanks. I was thinking right now maybe MAC’s Resolutely Red Lipstick LE from the High Def collection. I have that… On the swatches they look pretty matched up on screen… hmm..

  23. Elaine says:

    I just sent for “Blush” 09 at Nordstrom. Have Heather Rose, Dusty Rose, and Rosewood. I am surprised at how much I enjoy this lipstick. I wish the case were smaller, but it’s fun to drop the cap on the tube and watch it twist into place. The lipstick is delightful. Thanks for the beautiful swatches!
