Do you have a brand of makeup that always lures you in? That makes your heart skip a beat with it’s stunning line up of products? I’ve got a few that do that for me – Hourglass, Becca, YSL, and most recently Burberry. Between the stunning packaging, and the tartan embossing, I get sucked in every time….especially when it comes to their blushes!
The Burberry Light Glow Natural Blush in Earthy has become my new everyday staple. It retails for $42 (0.24 oz) at Bloomingdales, Sephora, and Nordstrom, and comes packaged in a sturdy square compact complete with a large mirror and miniature brush. You’ll also get a velvet carrying pouch, perfect for protecting the glossy packaging during travel.
Here’s what Burberry has to say:
Enhance cheeks and instantly boost complexions with this lightweight powder blush for a subtle healthy radiance. The fine powder is ultra-blendable and buildable for effortless, mistake-proof application.”
In terms of texture, this is one of the nicest blushes I own. It’s smooth, creamy, and so easy to apply. It blends beautifully, and never appears patchy or streaky. Plus, it has a gorgeous floral scent, a signature touch with most high end brands.
The shade Earthy is a soft rosy nude with brown undertones. It can be worn on the apples of the cheeks, or in the hollows for a light contour (depending on skin tone). The shade is light, but buildable, and it’s a runway icon used backstage by Wendy Rowe, a Burberry Make-up Artistic Consultant.
At first glance, Earthy looks like a pretty boring shade. But, once it’s on the cheeks it’s gorgeous! It’s the only thing on my cheeks in this photo, and as you can see, I can definitely wear it as both a bronzer or blush.
The brush included has super soft hairs, and in a pinch, I’ve been known to reach for it. Is it a replacement for my beloved MAC blush brush? No. But, when it comes to a freebie brushes, this one is better quality than most.
For months, I raved about the Burberry Light Glow Blush in No. 06 Tangerine (which is still favorite of mine). I had such a great experience with Tangerine, that I decided to take the plunge with Earthy and I am so happy I did! Between the luxe packaging and excellent texture, these blushes have become my new obsession!

This blush is beautiful! Looks perfect for every day.
It’s definitely a great pick for natural everyday looks!
Gorgeous shade that looks perfect on you! (Love those gold lids too!) And I would love it. Some day I hope to try Burberry
Thanks, Allison! The look will be up Friday! 😀
You look so beautiful! Gorgeous color on you and I can never get over how chic and beautiful the Burberry products are. I haven’t tried any of their blushes, but this one is a color I think I’d enjoy!! What are you wearing on your eyes because it’s gorgeous!!
Thanks, Christine! The look from today’s photo will be up on Friday! It’s from the Anastasia Beverly Hills World Traveler palette!
This review is incing me closer to pulling the trigger on one (or more) of the several of these lurking on my Sephora Loves list. That shade is gorgeous on you!
They are so hard to resist!!
You know you have the highly luxurious product when it comes in a velvet pouch 🙂 I haven’t tried anything from Burberry yet but I’m very tempted to get one of their lipsticks 🙂 That blush looks very pretty! x
Mummy’s Beauty Corner
LOL very true! Gotta love those velvet pouches! I have yet to try their lipsticks, but they look so pretty, and again the embossing on the product is so cute!
I’ve never tried anything from Burberry, but I’d like to! I’ve heard good things about their Fresh Glow product. This blush looks like a staple, since it could go with any makeup look. Thanks for sharing! It looks lovely on you!
I love the fresh glow highlight! I actually have that on in this photo (on my cheekbones) I totally forgot to mention that! lol
These products look beautiful! I always get sucked in by Chanel. 🙂
Ohhh yes, Chanel that’s another great one!
I am completely drooooooooooling! The packaging is so classy and the blush looks beautiful on you. Becca is my current beauty crush.
I love all things Becca too! They really can’t go wrong!
I havent tried Burberry blush, I have some of their lipsticks and they are amazing. You look stunning wearing it!
I really need to try their lipsticks!
That shade is gorgeous. I love Burberry Lipstick and shadows… I’ve yet to buy a blush but I’ve definitely been wanting to!
The lipsticks are on my wish list, the packaging is just SO cute!!
Earthy is the Burberry blush that is the most talked about. I’d buy it in a second if it didn’t have the fragrance. Luckily the e/s are fragrance free.
Aw yeah, I’m sure the fragrance can be irritating to those who are sensitive. What a shame since the formula is fantastic!
Burberry’s packaging is one of the chicest. I’m glad it’s now sold at Sephora
Me too! I used to only get mine at Bloomingdales, but Sephora makes it much more accessible!
Earthy is such a fabulous shade on you! I’m not sure it would show up on my skintone, but if it does, it is the kind of blush I would go in for.
You might be able to build it up, it’s not intensely pigmented though, so I’d try to swatch it in store first!
Your entire face looks awesome! I want the whole look. Maybe you can do another blog post on how to get this look – love it. I’ll also have to try the Burberry #7 – I’ve been looking for a more natural shade.
I’m actually featuring this look tomorrow! 🙂
Wow, this is so much more gorgeous on! I want this for summer.
It’s definitely a blah looking shade in the pan, but SO pretty on! NARS Madly is another one like that!
I have, and absolutely love, Earthy! Burberry makes absolutely amazing blushes! I have quite a few of them, and covet them all!
I seriously want them all now! lol
I have a love hate relationship with Burberry. I own two lipsticks and I hate that I want more… lmao! The packaging is always so pretty and chic… oh why must my pocket book feel the need to put me on restrictions. lol
Oh I definitely understand the struggle! LOL their packaging is SO pretty, and the tartan embossing on the lipsticks make me want all of them lol
I love that color!
Isn’t it a great neutral? 🙂
The shade is so soft and looks natural.
It’s one of my new favs!
I was doing a bit of online window shopping last week and was so close to ordering this. Such a great neutral blush shade.
I want to try so many more now!
Ahh! Such gorgeous pictures! Earthy is my longest-standing beauty wish list item of life. A month ago, I almost caved but ended up ordering the more pink-toned Cameo instead. Cameo is gorgeous, goes with everything, and is a luxurious joy to use. Everything from the packaging to the gorgeous scent makes using the blush a sensory experience! I am SO happy Sephora started carrying Burberry makeup — hope Earthy is restocked in time for the VIB sale! Might have to finally cross it off my list! Going to go read your review on Tangerine now! 😀
