....how could that happen???

Great haul, MissTania.Enjoy

Thanks for the picture, I saw it after I decided to buy it and am glad I did now Somehow Galaxie, Destin, the green magnetic one and YSL Rose Baby Doll also were purchased lol

The 3 nail polishes. Pardon the sloppy swatches, I did 1 coat and after shampooing my hair, the tips were worn off. Not that the quality of the nail polishes is poor, my nails are in poor condition recently.

I love Destin and Galaxie, the 3rd one is pretty too but I'll skip I think ( magnetic polishes are not for me ! )
Thank you for sharing !

Possibly the weirdest compliment you'll receive today: You have beautiful hands and fingers. Very smooth and tapered and elegant.

Let us know what you think when you get the two palettes! I can't decide if Constellation is a must-have for me. I haven't seen any lip products swatches online. Perhaps I could do it this weekend.

Dior likes to release different things in different locations for their seasonal collections. I'm not sure why they believe this is a good strategy for them.

Miss QQ, I would not call Constellation a must-have *for me* because it's a bit too metallic for (older than you) me and also on my skin it looks better in some lights (indoors) than in others (outdoors). Indoors it looks like brittbby's gorgeous swatches, but It looks more like Sabrina's swatches when I'm outside. I guess this is because of the reflective particles.

I wonder how that happened! Sneaking things must have snuck into your shopping cart.

I don't understand either.

I received a call from my Macy's Dior SA, and they have blushes (possibly new/need to check them out), cream shadows, and trio in stock. I am going to look at them today. My local Nordstrom does not have any of these products in stock though they are on Nordstrom's site.

ETA: Found out today that the new blushes are expected to be in store the second week of August.

I did a look with two of the new crème shadows today. Though I love the colors, they are rather glittery. I had to use mattes in the crease & to highlight, and only used the new shadows on the lid. There was also a little fall out with the darker shade. Overall I really like them. Now I am seeing if they last all day or fade away.

These computer accidents happen sometimes...alot...all the time

Thanks, I can't wait to get my hands and nails on them!

 

[MACina]

Cannot wait to see swatches of these!

I found this link to some of the powder blush swatches. http://indigo-kir-royale.blogspot.com/2013/07/weekend-swatchfest-part-2-dior.html

They look gorgeous but not very pigmented, at least the lighter shades.

 

[Monsy]

I already see three that i want

 

[MACina]

They really do

Forgot to mention that they have some of the cream shadow swatches too.
I'm really liking the dark blue and the warm brown ones.

 

[Sylvia60]

Oh, I love those swatches.
I'll have to wait to try them in person, but I see three shadows I want

My cc is moaning.

OMG!!!!



OK, the shadows honestly look a little sparkly for me, although they're pretty, but the blushes are stunning! I really love the range of colours and I can see that I'm going to have to start making room for some Dior blushes in my stash... Thank goodness they're permanent!

Thanks for the website swatches.... I have three on my list of want (maybe more, because the website they're limited edition) but I definitely want to swatch them before buying. They almost remind me of how sparkly the Chanel Eye shadow sticks from the summer collection are, maybe more (but not as pigmented as them). I sometimes find it hard to use the Chanel ones without getting glitter on my cheeks (especially Pink Lagoon) so I hope these cream eye shadows don't have that same fallout. (Sorry, I know you posted this for the powder blushes not the eye shadows!)

I have worked with/tried 5 of the new crème shadows: Lune, Chimere, Aventure, Cosmos, and Meteore. My favorite combination was Meteore and Chimere. Meteore did have some problems with application. Because of the intense amount of glitter, I initially picked up a couple of shadow "chunks" with my brush. I then changed up my technique a bit to work around this. Lune is my least favorite b/c it is the same as Chanel Fantasme. Same effect. My favorite so far is Chimere, but I know that I have something similar in my stash.

All of them are glittery as heck. If you are not a fan of sparkle, then definitely swatch in store before buying. All of the shadows that I have tried have stayed put all day with primer. I only had fading/smudging with the black art pen which I wasn't expecting. I really like some of these shadows (keep in mind that I don't mind glitter on my lids). Not all of them are terribly unique in color, but they are pretty!

Ah yes, but I did later mention there were eyeshadow swatches too, so no worries. ;D

I'm worried that these will have more fallout than the Chanel cream shadows, but who knows until one tries them. I'll try them in-store, but I'll wait on buying them. Usually, my local Macy's takes the longest in getting the full Dior collection and the longest in selling it out, so it's likely I won't necessarily need to get any for a while before they start to sell out.

I did purchase the Bonne Aventure lipstick, and it doesn't seem very plum. It applies like a muted red, but the stain it left later leaned much more plum. I still like it regardless, but the official description of the shade is a bit off.
