Burberry Beauty has taken inspiration from the timeless features of the iconic Burberry trench coat and morphed it into an entire color line capturing the trench’s functionality, versatility, and comfort – All available in an arsenal of various beauty product forms.(Burberry Beauty contains four cosmetic categories: Burberry Skin, Burberry Glow, Burberry Lips and Burberry Eyes)

Luscious textures, luxurious ingredients, and colors that flatter every skin tone and every style, the creators of Burberry Beauty have executed an entirely chic cosmetic line that is as timeless and attractive as it is functional. (To read more about the line read my Examiner.com article here)

Last Tuesday, I was exclusively invited to the Burberry Beauty launch at Nordstrom at the Westfield San Francisco Centre. It was an all out extravagant and exciting affair that mixed and mingled the exact amount of work and play for an avid beauty junkie and blogger like myself.

First stop was the beauty counter, where I was dolled up by Brad and Stephanie, two darlings of the fabulous Nordstrom Burberry makeup crew. Then  headed to my first interview and first on-camera interview with the amazing man behind the brand, Christopher Bailey. As the Chief Creative Officer of the Burberry brand, this man deserves mad props for taking the traditional multi-million dollar design house and turning it into a billion dollar powerhouse and completing the label with an array of specific lifestyle lines. Needless to say, I was quite nervous. Nonetheless, he was an honor and a pleasure to interview. Watch the video below as we discuss the inspiration behind the Burberry Beauty products and campaign:

And of course, play time came! It was a chic cocktail party where local Burberry fans and San Francisco socialites gathered at an exclusive VIP area on the second floor of the Westfield Nordstrom. Complete with music, appetizers, champagne, and  cocktails, the event was the perfect way to introduce the new addition to such an iconic fashion brand.

Burberry Beauty is available at Nordstrom Union Square, Nordstrom.com and Burberry.com

Also, I ran into two lovely ladies during the Burberry event:

Karen of Makeup and Beauty Blog and Kasey of Bay Area Style File.

I love it when I run into fellow bloggers,  especially when they are as sweet and  awesome as these two!
