Dior Cosmetics Discussion

Saw the new n/p collection and tried Rock topcoat on my nails. Not convinced that I need it at the moment. The new n/p brush is very short, flat and slanted.

Here's a better link for Dior Summer. Nothing really grabs me The quints have been very unremarkable lately. I need more pops of colour!

Here's pics and swatches for one of the bronzers from Summer 2011's Electric Tropics:

The bronzer is definitely interesting....not sure the new quints are different enough, though they are reformulating the shadows so they could be worth checking out to swatch. I'm liking the gloss colors, but I'm not a big fan of Dior's glosses - they're too.....something.

On the other hand, I am LOVING the new Dior Addict lipcolors - I've started a collection. They're fabulous!!!

I will have swatches of several of the new Dior Addict lipcolors as soon as I can figure out how to get a pic to post......these are absolutely gorgeous, and I bet you can't choose just one!!

Too many colors, I went crazy, i'll try to get some swatches.

Here are most of the colors......the tones are accurate, but the paper absorbed the moisture, so they're actually 'shinier' than these - and I hope you can read my rushed handwriting.

I now own several - I just LOVE them! Last night I bought Spotlight, which is a taupe-y pink color with some multi-colored shimmers - it's fairly light so it's more of a 'barely there' look that's great to just throw on in a pinch. It's a bit lighter than New York. I have several of the pinks (most of the collection is pink) but none of the browns, which were really too brown for my coloring. Overall, it's very hard to choose just one.....or two......or three.....!!

These and the Shiseido Shimmering Rouge lipsticks are my favorite formula for the season by a mile!

Erine, how sheer would you say Miami 635 is? I already have an addict in a sheer coraly color but would like something with a little more color.

Which addict do you have? Miami is really not sheer, it's very shimmery as well.
