Does anyone already tried Dior brushes? I've the blush, the powder foundation and the lip ones, and I like them very much. I'm wondering if the eye brushes are worth it

I didn't get the new foundation because it has limited colors. I prefer the yellow based foundations and these looked pink on my skin. But, I did get the Diorskin Nude Crystal Primer! It's so awesome. I have been waiting forever for Dior to come out with something like this. It's a primer and it blots your shine, while still leaving your skin dewy. I love it. The only fall back is that when you use it to blot, your makeup can get in the primer. I used it and my sparkles from my Super Orgasm blush were in the pan. I don't really think that matters though. It's a great product!

Has anyone tried/tested the newest Diorskin Nude foundation? It comes in a compact and is described as a gel-creme texture... Seems to be a recent addition and I can't find any reviews. I love the other Nude foundations I've tried (the liquid and loose powder), so really interested in hearing how this one compares.

Thanks!
Did you ever get around to trying this? I'm interested in it but I wanna hear someone's thoughts first. I also need to figure out my shade

so today i went to my dior counter. i usually see the same gal and spend around 200. i did an exchange on a mascara for a waterproof one and she gave me the cold shoulder but i still spend around 200. she always hook me up with great gift. but this time she didn't. i felt like she did me wrong. if i'm spending that much money and did my first exchange with her. should she treat me like that. should i tell her what's on my mind and continue to buy from her or go to a different dior counter.

i test out the new gel-creme foundation out. it's not that great. it's just ok. not much of a color selection . i didn't get it because the price you pay for it. i know you can get better gal-creme foundation from another high end brand.

Have you all seen the promo pics for the Spring 2011 collection? The model is just gorgeous!!! I love pinks and greys.....I'm seriously considering the 2 quads (and maybe the Soft Pink Design quint), and at least one lippie......

I love the look of the Soft Pink Design quint! Karen at Makeup and Beauty Blog has swatches and a FOTD with it.

I have to say though, I bought both of last year's Spring quints and have not used them all that much. Coquette was also a soft look like Pink Design and I barely wear it so maybe I should be saving for the Chanel spring quint instead!

I'm so addicted to the Dior glosses now.. I never bought one myself because I can't justify paying $27 for a lipgloss, but I got one for Christmas and boy am I in love with it!

I was browsing the Dior selection in my local Sephora when I noticed that they'd got the new gel-creme foundations in. Upon swatching them... I fell in love with the texture! Has anyone tried them yet?

I ended up caving into both lipsticks. They are absolutely beautiful. Chic Pink (the deeper one) reminds me of a cross between MAC's Profusion and Lustering. It's brighter and pinker than the former, redder and a little warmer than the latter. Spring Pink is just stunning. It's a very peachy pink colour and it's honestly everything I'd hoped Cut A Caper would be. I finally seem to have found a peach l/s that works for me!

Does anyone have any options of Dior powder foundation? I tried a little swatch of the lightest colour on my nose and was kind of amazed how well it worked. I was wondering if people had some "real life" experiences they could share.

I have it but am personally not much of a fan, though I guess it depends on what you prefer. It is long lasting, but it's very matte - personally I prefer something with a little bit more of an illuminating finish (like Chanel's Mat Lumiere). I also find it quite drying on the skin for a powder foundation. Overall I find it an OK foundation but it's not my first choice. I do really love the Diorskin Nude Fresh Glow loose powder foundation though.

^ I'm waiting for more reviews on this new foundation also. There doesn't seem to be a lot of info on this new product online. I was hoping that the beauty blogs would provide in-depth reviews on this foundation.

Same here. I'd really like to try it along with several other foundations I'm testing this year, but with the lack of info/reviews I've seen so far it's at the end of my list. If any of you pick it up I'd love to hear what you think!

Seriously? That's insane :) You know it has to be within one year, right? Just making sure. I'm $80 away from the $500, and I need to redeem this month. I don't think I want anything Dior right now, so I'm planning to redeem just 250 pts, and save the receipts from December for another time. Have you ever redeemed before? I wonder what the 250 pts gift is right now.

I sent in to redeem my points for the 750 gift and I received an email stating they no longer have the 750 gift. I went to look it up on the website. The guy said I could keep my points and work up to 1000 or I could do a 500 and 250 gift. I chose the 500 and 250 gift. It's no longer a secret for the gifts you will be receiving. The 250 point is a full size Extase mascara and a perfume mini and a bag. The 500 point gift is a Primer mascara and the Dior Addict Lip Balm and a perfume mini and a bag.
Adorable Diva - 100 points
Receive deluxe travel sizes of Dior best sellers in an adorable mini Dior shopping bag.

Diva Deluxe - 250 points
Receive a full size Diorshow Extase Mascara in Black and a deluxe skincare miniature in a must-have pouch.
