i have quite a few of their quints and i've never been disappointed. Dior are my favorite eyeshadows. I dont' even use primers.
I am afraid I have more than a few

, and I have never been disappointed either. They really are of very high quality, and they don't get bad after a few years as so many other eyeshadows do.

Does anyone notice that the applicator of 5 couleurs eyeshadow coming this fall , one of their sponge end is replaced by a brush.
The image above is #056 Bar. Another fact is the one used in fall-winter 2014/15, #456 Jardin, as the image below.
I REALLY REALLY REALLY want ^^^^ this!!! When anyone sees this available for purchase PLEASE pm me ASAP

I do too.. and this is a beauty. It has most of the colours from chanel prelude quad tho.. so I might sit it out.
I don't have much Chanel. I should look into them more but in my store the Dior counter is first and I never make it past there.

That antique gold in 456 is beautiful. I was at the counter and couldn't resist trying the Transat Golden Shimmer. I used my finger and lightly applied it on my cheek bones. The effect was stunning, it was highlighting without any visible shimmer. It just looked like my skin glowed naturally. I didn't buy yet it because I have many highlighters but none are comparable. When I swatched it heavily on my hand it looked too tan and gold, but on the face after foundation/powder, it was perfect. No wonder it sold out quickly elsewhere. I have a blister sample pack of the fluid sticks. Will try them soon. Haven't bought any but hearing they don't last on the lips, that's just too bad because I like how they feel on.

I thought this is from the autumn/winter collection?

Does anyone know the name of this palette?

I think Dior's formula is completely different to Chanel's, even if taupe and grey look similar I bet they won't look the same on the eye.
The palette is called "Bar" and has # 056.

The two others (which I think are the regular ones) are #456 "Jardin" and #276 "Carré Bleu".

As much as I like "Bar", I think both "Jardin" and "Carré Bleue" are more interesting palettes. I have nothing that looks like them (well, almost nothing

Thanks! I agree, those are more interesting, but not the shades I would wear. I only have one black and one grey eyeshadow, I need a palette like Bar :)

I got my gold highlighter!

Problem is that now I can't bring myself to swatch it. It is too pretty!

It is sitting on my vanity next to Guerlain's celebration compact which I also have only been staring at.

Going to cross post but I want to make sure everyone sees it. Ebates is having a special, all day today is 15% off of most department stores. Sephora, Nordstrom, Macy's etc. are all 15%!!!
I went to sephora today and they have a few items marked as 'exclusive to sephora' like tiny pink fluid stick and a few things from the new collection. it's starting to annoy me with all these exclusives that aren't actually exclusive. why say it? why does it annoy me? i guess because I fall for it and snatch up items faster. i'm the sucker they aim for
sigh.gif
lol.
i didn't like the fluid sticks. I only swatched them on my hand and the colors are gorgeous but it never dried. it just stayed wet and wiped off with a tissue after 20 minutes, no stain or anything. How do you ladies like them as far as longevity?

Well, I can see that! I have so many Dior quints, I could reach the age of 500 years and still not run out. At this stage I (try to) avoid buying what I already have and go for the rarer colors. Sometimes I'm even successful. The problem is that Dior quints are so wonderful, and even though I'm not attracted to the color combination when it's launched, I never know what might happen in the future. A couple of years ago I changed my hair color and discovered a handful of old quints, I hadn't used that much. Suddenly, they're just what I needed, and even the very old (+ 20 years) performed beautifully. It looks lovely on you!
Thanks:)
