Burberry Lip Velvet Long Wear Lipstick in Rose Pink and Body Eau De Parfum review

Burberry Lip Velvet Long Wear Lipstick, Burberry Body Eau de Parfum and Burberry Body Milk
Burberry Lip Velvet Long Wear Lipstick in Rose Pink no. 307
Rouge Velours Haute Tenue
What is it:
A velvety matte radiance, inspired by the most opulent of English fabrics. Iconic pigments provide incredibly dense and luminous color, gel technology gives comfortable long-wear performance, while triglycerides and wild rose continuously hydrate. The result is effortlessly elegant, protective and breathable.
Tips:
Apply Lip Velvet with fingertips for a natural stain of color or use with a Lip Definer Pencil for a more polished elegance.

I prefer to use my fingers and dab lip velvet on my lips for a natural just-bitten look which is normally achieved with lip stains.
For night time/parties/events:
I usually use a lip brush to apply Lip Velvet to achieve precision as well as to fill up the fine lines on my lips.
What I like about this lipstick is that it has got very good color payoff. What I don't really like about Burberry Lip Velvet is that it tends to get transferred to the skin outside your upper lip area if you are someone whom tend to press your lips together very often. As I'm someone whom tends to press my lips together very often, especially when I'm thinking hard, I usually apply a layer of Make Up For Ever Aqua Rouge's clear top to seal Lip Velvet on my lips.
Top notes:
wormwood, peach and freesia
Middle notes:
iris, sandalwood and rose
Base notes:
cashmere wood, vanilla, amber and musk
Burberry Body Eau de Parfum is the latest addition to my current collection of Burberry perfumes consisting of Burberry Brit Sheer and Burberry Touch for women (see below).
My thoughts:
Having being quite a loyal supporter of Burberry fragrances - you could tell from my Burberry fragrance collection consisting of Burberry Brit Sheer and Burberry Touch for women, I think it is only right that I compare Burberry Body Eau De Parfum to the other two fragrances released earlier from the company. Burberry Body Eau De Parfum is somewhat in the middle of Burberry Brit Sheer and Burberry Touch for women. Allow me to make myself clearer, you see - Burberry Brit Sheer is more to the young, sweet and girly side while Burberry Touch for women in my opinion is more apt for working women. Burberry Body Eau De Parfum has a very unique scent to it, its not too overbearing to be used in the day, neither is it too plain for the night especially when you want to head to that business meeting after work.
You'll be sure that its in my make up pouch and probably my next favourite perfume for work anytime soon!
