Dior Cosmetics Discussion

[Dominique33]

Oh yes, I know you aren't an isolated case.

  I read your previous post about the reviews on the French Sephora site.  Like any other makeup or skincare product they will be YMMV. On me...they are the longest wearing lip product I own...and I never get the wear times that Temptalia quotes for lip products she reviews, mine are much shorter. And (again for me personally) scent can be a big problem, and these are very lightly scented to my nose. It's just a very individual thing.

I am very glad it works well on you yes it is subjective of course. Enjoy your new lippies, I dońt know if you have tried their new nail polishes, the gel formula is great but again some don ´ t share that opinion, I must say this is surprising enough, my nails are not in a very good shape ( toes ) and I found 2 perfect formulas the Essie one and the new Dior one,

Me neither

Me neither

Thank you all !

It's a soft powder with subtle shimmer ( both ), one is a shell/baby pink and the other is a very soft golden copper I would say. Both are flattering, not overwhelming at all in both cases and buildable. I wouldn't say the texture is as good as my beloved duo blushes from Bird of Paradise 2013 ( perfection ! ) but it is still very good indeed, and the colour is good.:eyelove: Thank you all for your comments, well yes it was a very nice haul. They had the Chanel powders too but I'll pick up 01 next time, I haven't seen the lip balms I Wonder if they are exclusive to Sephora ?

 

[Starlight77]

I am very happy I must say

oooo NICE HAUL!!!

i'd love to hear how the amber one is. is it more a bronzer or a highlighter. so far i only bought the pink and i love it.

 

[MACina]

The pink one

Thank you, Dominique!

Atlantique





Sundeck


The textures are pretty good ( not chalky, if you remember the Croisette 2012 ones were beautiful but Swimming Pool es became chalky in a few months time ) ,, I was not supposed to purchase the quints but I changed my mind when I saw them this morning. They launched Transat this afternoon, it's a very classy collection needless to say The powders are not so pricey but the np are ! ( 27 € each ), they are gorgeous though.

 

[elegant-one]

Lovely Dominique! Thanks for the swatches! I really like Sundeck

 

[Dominique33]

Thank you Elegant, Sundeck kind of reminds me of 2012 Aurora ( the same colour range ), but the texture is much better ( the pattern was so pretty but also so bad with Aurora ), Atlantique is pretty too I think.

Yes, I love their new polishes too. I have Bonheur and Tra-La-La. I'm also an Essie fan!

 

[Medgal07]

I hope they do get them back in! I need to just keep checking. Did you only purchase the coral one? I want both!

Both are a must. I hope you get them!!

 

[Medgal07]

You can still hit submit/order button with your left hand

A good makeup addict would use her nose or even her toes---oh I had a backup plan
in case the left arm failed to cooperate.

 

[elegant-one]

Weird, my new Dior lady called me today to tell me that they got all the new lipsticks...NO new blushes

she didn't think they were going to get them. I'm so glad (in this case) I was impatient & ordered both right away

 

[Medgal07]

I swatched some of the older ones & never liked how glittery they were. The new ones that I got the sample of are beautiful. They give a diffused look to the skin with a beautiful subtle pearl glow. Very silky in texture.


They are the new versions of the shimmers. WAAAAYYY less shimmer to them. They have a nice subtle shimmer/glow

you crack me up!

I read up on them again to determine the best ones for my coloring and guess what? They're sitting in my cart

I'm so, so glad I ordered them. I am so eager to play in my stuff but it's not fun with my left hand----it's pathetic!
​ I'm having such withdrawal because I love makeup and I enjoy wearing it everyday. So instead of wearing it
I'm amassing it. I'll need to live to be 110 if I'm to have any hope of making a dent in my stash. I just had a
lovely thought...I can share it with all the other old girls in my nursing home. We'll be smacking our gums as we
wear pink cheeks & lips at breakfast!

If anyone missed Cannage blushes from Saks, they will be stocked by Dior Palazzo in Las Vegas, but they will get only a few of each color, so if you want to reserve yours, you probably need to give them a call asap.

They must distribute based on regional market need because my Dior SA called to say they had the blushes in last week. Either that or that haven't given updated info
