Dubai, UAE, April 2, 2016

Burberry introduces its Spring/Summer 2016 make-up collection, Velvet & Lace, inspired by the brand’s womenswear Spring/Summer 2016 collection, “Functionregalia”. 

Featuring intricate lace-inspired detail, dark and impactful red hues and metallic accents, the collection introduces two limited edition palettes and limited edition shades of Nail Polish and Eye Colour Cream. 

“I love this season’s limited edition palette - I apply it around the perimeter of the face, from forehead to chin, to illuminate. It also looks great when applied to the décolletage to define and highlight. I love it as an eye shadow too - it gives the lids a hint of a glow and the two shades will work on any skin tone, perfectly complementing a bold lip.”
Burberry Make-up Artistic Consultant, Wendy Rowe
