Thank you so much! I found one comparison from Google with Sunlight and it looks pretty close. Maybe, I will go in with my Aurora and compare with the new Aurora and Sunlight. I haven't seen this year's Dior Summer get nearly as much coverage as last years!

Thank you! I just missed out on buying a BU on eBay, so I'm definitely going to go into Neiman's soon and snatch this up. These are permanent though, right?

they are :)

Miss QQ, I have my eye on that Tailleur Bar palette but the Dior site was gaffes up the other day, and Saks's free shipping was for a minimum of $150 so I'm waiting to get either free shipping or for Dior to get their technology act together. Their site is pathetic.

Thumbs down on the site. Let us know if you get it. Did you get the previous Tailleur Bar? I should use mine, I have been ignoring it for months.

Congrats Dior on being one of the first companies in Canada to get your Fall collection out! I saw it today and while I'd label it as sort of "safe", it is really pretty. I don't actually have a Dior quint, but I think I'm going to cave for one of these. They lean warm, but I think I could get away with either of them. They had a couple of blushes included in the display that aren't listed with the collection, so I'm not sure whether they're new or just existing products being given a promotion. Anyone have any thoughts on Dior blushes? 

I have one Dior blush, in Peechy Keen.  I like the fact that the pan is split between a medium matte shade and a shimmery slightly lighter version of the same shade - good versatility.  Texture is very nice, good pigment and staying power.  Would probably own more if I did not already have so. much. blush. already.

I too love the blushes!!  I picked up the Golden Savannah quint (oh my!!) and the Fall collex blush in Sunkissed Cinnamon.  I'm not sure if it's a re-promote, but the color is gorgeous.  It's warm-ish, but has a cool tone to it too......almost ends up being neutral.

 

I also found my Aurora Nude Tan at Izzy's......it is so pretty, and I'm glad I decided to splurge on it.  I just can't figure out why they would make it exclusive to Asia - there are plenty of us here who could wear it!!

 

MissQQ, no, this would be my first TB.....it's still sitting in my Saks cart.....why can't they just offer free shipping instead of requiring a $150 purchase?  Good grief, everyone offers free shipping nowadays.  And it's still not up on Dior's site.  I can't even find it based on their (lame) navigation.  It really is a terrible site for commerce.

I'm really really loving the Nude powder - I have the one with the slight shimmer.  It doesn't show up shimmery, but it adds such a beautiful, healthy glow!  I want to get a darker one to use as a bronzer.  I got the light one, and it's not dark enough as a bronzer, but I think it will be nice for adding some colour in the winter, without using a full-out bronzer.

I saw the fall collection. I like both the Golden Jungle palettes, the brown and the green. The eyeshadows are soft and pigmented, but they come with a gloss at the side, and they are pricey so I passed. Wasn't impressed by the quints.

Does anyone use the Nude loose powder? I have been using it and loving it. Hope they do not discontinue it!

 

I wanted to buy the green one but passed on it because of the lip gloss :S

Here is a little sneak peek at the Holiday collection entitled "Grand Bal". :)

The quint look interesting, but possibly run-of-the-mill until I see them in person - I always start out planning to ignore them, and end up getting one anyway.

Hi Miss QQ!!!!

Thank you very much sharing MarieMary!

 

The Quint on the left reminds me a bit of Endless Shine Quint which was released in 2010.

 

At the moment nothing really appeals to me but this might change when I see swatches.

 

The mixed palette however is a complete pass for me....I don`t like these!

 

Nice quints! Thanks for these.


Btw, looks like the diorskin nude has been reformulated. Anyone tried it yet? I have oily skin but I really want a glowing foundation that would last lol

Thanks for posting, Grand Bal well it looks pretty nice !

Has anyone redeemed for the Dior Diva program recently?

I have been saving receipts for 6 months or so, but am wondering if they have new rewards....

 

I redeemed early this year. It was the 100 point reward IIRC. This is what I got.  It was a nice package, but I already had a J'Adore mini, I would've loved a different one (I collect perfume minis)

 

Hi Cheryl! Did you manage to get the Tailleur Bar?

I like the look for the two holiday quints too! My last quint was Iridescaent Leather.

Hi Miss QQ!!  Yes!!!  I just got it today!!  I finally decided to find some other items on saks.com so that I could get it there (since the Dior site is SO LAME  )......oh, it is so pretty......I don't know how I'll bring myself to use it .  I love the colors tho!  Right up my alley!!

 

Iridescent Leather is a classic - I love it - let's hope these are as pretty!!

^^ Enjoy! It looks very pretty! In comparison my TB no. 1 doesn't look as good.

Well, I have to say that I am LOVING the Dior BB creme.......I wasn't sure I would like it based on the color of it in the tube, but it morphs into the perfect shade.  It lasts the day, has great coverage, and makes my skin look and feel fabulous!!

^^ Are you referring to the Hydralife BB Creme? Or Dior Snow BB Creme? I purchased the Dior snow in the lighter shade but hasn't use it yet. I tried a sample of it and like it. The Hydralife is not available at my counters. The Prestige BB Creme is even better in texture and matches my skin colour well, but it is very expensive.

I did it twice - once for 100 points and second time for 250 points (both within the last two months). I liked the 100 points redemption more-) Just because it came with more products than the 250 points one-)) For 100 points, I've got mini Dior Addict in diorkiss 578, mini diorshow blackout, j'adore miniature (EdP 5ml), one essential serum 5 ml. For 250 points, I received a book by CD, another one essential and j'adore (same sizes), and mini Rouge Dior in 644.

The new nude foundation has launched at my counters. There are new liquid foundation, powder foundation, brushes, Rouge Dior Nude lipsticks and eyeshadow trios. I swatches the rouge dior and like them very much. I think I will cave for one of them. I may eventually get the powder refill as I have the old compact and the new formula also fits into it. I heard that the old nude liquid foundation oxidises, I have a sample of the new one and I'll try it out.

Miss QQ, yes, it's the HydraLife BB cream. It is awesome!

Nordies also has the new nudes lip collection and the new brushes as well, but I haven't ventured to give them a look-see yet.......

Hi Cheryl! I just read from a magazine that the Hydralife BB creme is launching at my counters soon, and I can't wait to try it. Let us know if you look at the nude collection. I like the nude eyeshadow trios too, in each trio two shades are sheer with ultra fine shimmers, and there is a soft black shade.
