I can hardly believe that we have a special product here in Europe lol, never happened before :bigstar: Anyway I just ordered the polishes and one of the quads, I can't wait! Especially Minuit was looking so pretty at Jenny's post! http://belletristicbeauty.blogspot.de/2013/10/dior-minuit-diorific-vernis-golden-winter-review-swatch.html *happy sigh* I first ordered golden flower but then I have checked the swatches, it looks so fair. I was sure three of the five shades wouldn't show on me, so called them to change it with the darker one. I hope I have done the right thing. Anyway played with the quads in person?

I think you'll like Golden Snow better anyway Sara--I think it has more of those deeper, bluer/purpler tones you like so much.

The highlighters are not listed on Temptalia's list of upcoming items. Nor is it listed on Musings of a Muse. Both are located within the United States and MoM states she specifically used copy and pictures direct from Dior. I am thinking maybe no highlighters. Especially after seeing the picture of the display photographed {with substitute fillers for not yet in stock items} by Best Things in Beauty. I see no room for highlighters.... do you? http://bestthingsinbeauty.blogspot.com/2013/10/sunday-this-and-that.html

yeah the rose gold highlighter looks yummy but honestly I am not one for highlighters in general. I barely wear blush much less contour. I purchased the Chanel from last winter Star Dust and regret it so... no. Unless somebody swatches it and makes me drool all over the place I am saving the $$$ it would cost.

honestly my make up skills are stuck in the 80's and I'm totally fine with that

is there any swatches of the highlighters out yet? its gonna be available in the states right?
No, I asked Dior and they said that many items will not be available in the States.

Has anyone tried to order international products from Harrods? Just wondering if I could at least get a couple of the lipsticks if they get them.

hmmm disappoint. The nail polish is described as fushia and I expected the lipstick to be the same. Here is a new to me swatch of Royale nail polish which is on my to get list: http://caramelfrappe.wordpress.com/2013/10/23/dior-royale/

I know. I thought it would be a bit more unique too.

I got to play with this very briefly on my lunch hour and my take is that the quints are very similar- probably too much to warrant buying both- but both very nice. The pigmentation on the sparkly shades is quite good, but they are VERY sparkly. Caveat emptor.

Of the three lipsticks (Diva,Winter, Minuit) that I saw, Minuit was the clear winner. The shade looks almost like it glows (in a good way) against my skin.

They had minuet last night at my local sephora. Someone had stolen the tester, so one of the ladies opened a fresh one for me. I tried it on and fell in love!! I'm gonna go back by tomorrow and pick it up. :)

I found some time to play with the products I picked up from Golden Winter Collection. If you are interested in the impressions here are the posts:

Nail Polishes (#128 Winter, #751 Marilyn, #775 Royale, #995 Minuit) and Lipstick swatches
http://www.colormeloud.com/2013/10/diorific-vernis-128-winter-751-marilyn.html

Dior 5 Couleurs #644 Golden Snow
http://www.colormeloud.com/2013/10/dior-5-couleurs-644-golden-snow-from.html

I also played with the highlighters at the counter. I have to say, you girls in US, you are not missing anything. These are probably meant to be like Guerlain's or Chanel's loose powder and probably more for decollete not for the face. The texture is rather dry and it doesn't stick together or on the skin, if you know what I mean. The compacts are luxurious and lovely though. Diorshow Fusion Mono in Comete looks like another yellow golden mousse creme eye shadow. Since I own many from Chanel line, I might pass this one.
