After seeing swatches online, I will pass the Mitzah quint because it looks close to Kaska Beige, which doesn't look good on me. Wallet is happy and so am I!

msqq.. lol I hear ya.

I got the mitzah for a gift to my cousin because her colouring will look fabulous with it.. (C! is getting it for me ..lol).

I have the Kaska also, and it works on me but then I have not really worn it recently since my hair is a totally different colour now!

will report when I use it again!

I recently got a promo mailer from Dior with several products - quint, single eyeshadows, np, and lippies - featuring a teal/purple color scheme. Of course none of the products were identified by name LOL. Now I want to get the quint & single eyeshadows (or at least look at them), but I have no idea what to look for. Has anyone else gotten info on this collection and know the product names? TIA!

Do you mean this one, the Spring 2012 collection?

No that isn't it, but now I want the entire spring collection too! I will see if I can scan the promo card/poster & post pics. My computer skills are somewhat lacking, so I don't know how it will turn out. The colors of the collection on the card are definately meant for fall/winter. Everything is rather dark, and the lipsticks & np are red.

Does anyone know the names of the quint and single e/s in the pics I posted above? I really am interested in them. TIA!

^^ The blue quint in your mailer looks like Electric Lights, from summer 2009! I have the quint.

For spring 2012, I'm drawn to Roses quint, the pinks and purples are so feminine. I also like the nail polishes, the green reminds me of Jade Rose!

The Rosy Glow blush is pretty in the pan, but I'm quite skeptical. It sounds gimmicky, and I tried on their Rosy Glow lip balm they had earlier on, and to my disappointment it remained colourless on my lips. At least for a balm if it is colourless it still gives moisture, but if a blush gives no colour what use is it, lol.

Thank you for the information. Maybe they are rereleasing something similar? Why would they send out a new mailer with something released over 2 years ago on it? I will make my way to the Dior counter today and ask. I will be really bummed if this quint is no longer available.

^^ Yeah it find it really strange too, since the quint was LE. I hope they give you a good explanation! Let us know!

Well I went by a couple of Dior counters yesterday, and no one knew anything. The Dior counter at Nordstroms even had posters with images from the mailer hanging from the ceiling right next to the counter. I kept asking the MUAs about the products that were featured in the posters HANGING RIGHT ABOVE THEIR HEADS, and they all had blank looks.

Maybe these were just promo pics for the brand and not actual products that are going to be released.

^^ I'm with you. The packaging is pretty, but I won't use the liner too.

What a disappointment. Anyway, I find Dior seasonal collection very confusing too. They release different items in different countries, and even number them differently sometimes.
