Thank you, Sara! Did you also check out the new cream eyeshadows?And the new blushes?
Yes I did, I went back home with 5 cream eye shadows. :))) They are lovely and not sheer (as sheer as Chanel's Illusion d'Ombres, some shades are even a bit more opaque once compared) I was on the way to holiday so I coudn't write back. Yesterday night I could compare those, here is the review: http://www.colormeloud.com/2013/08/diorshow-fusion-mono-81-aventure-281.html

This is extremely helpful. I noticed Christine from Temptalia has been posting reviews as well today and she seems very impressed as well. I've not tried the Chanel shadows. It's mostly a matter of price and the fact that I'm allergic to a lot of cream shadows (most of them). I didn't want to spend $40 (Canadian) and find out that I could wear them. The Dior ones are a little more reasonable in price it seems, so I might try them out. I'm a little worried they'll be too frosty and make me look like a frosted hag,

A reader asked me about the ingredients, I edited the post, if you know what you are allergic to, you may want to check it out. Frosted hag? LOL? I think these shadows are not frosts, they are rather like sparse fine glitters, if this makes sense.

(sounds like a sweet delicacy you serve at Christmas if you ask me!)

Well, after having an awful day I went to my local Douglas and swatched all Dior cream shadows. They feel exactly like the IdOs! I've to say that I like the Chanel ones better, the Dior ones seemed sheerer? Idk. What I like in the IdOs is that they have very fine shimmer throughout (at least in the ones I own, I don't own the glittery ones like Mirifique and the gold one), the Dior ones seem to have sparkles in their colour base.
I decided against them in the end (and came home with one more ETK) because I bought my Chanel ones when they were released, now about two years ago. And they dry out. Quite quickly. Be assured that I took some care that they didn't, but well, they do. I love the formula, but I've too much eye products as it is, and will steer clear of those with dry out potential for now. Love the ETKs for that reason!

Hopefully the ETK can sheer you up a bit!
