Dior Cosmetics Discussion

I own the sparkle set and if it weren't for collecting purposes, I would send it straight back. It is a mess to apply and after the application they fall out despite many coats of top coat, I have read though a review and she was fine with it. I guess I am not the nail art kind of person

I saw some photos of the polishes on Instagram I think and they look beautiful in the bottles but on the nails they looked really crunchy and flaky they're a definite skip for me

These are the two I'm interested in right now.

Exactly! Thats why we'll have to buy 2

to get the FS

 

[Haven]

My blushes have already shipped and will be here by Monday! Plus I chose the free standard shipping.

Maybe I should order directly from Dior more often.

 

[PeachTwist]

Just curious.. is the Dior Amber Diamonds powder worth it? The hype surrounding it on YouTube etc has me curious.

Oh my! You're tempting me. BUT, I think I will wait until I see what you think of them before I order

YES WITHOUT A DOUBT!

I hate to disagree with Monsy but Cartoon Chic said no as have others. Application is supposedly a mess, tricky to execute, and involves lots of wasted product. The effect is supposedly gorgeous but not long lasting. The Chic said it didn't make it through the evening so it was a special going out for evening thing. Plus I read above it looks crunchy and ick.

I am not even tempted in the slightest. But then I do not like textured nails like that sand looking stuff. I do like matte nails and I do like some sparkle/glitter. your mileage may vary tho so .... I would see if I could try it in store first.

 

[Monsy]

I can't believe we are talking about the same product

application is super easy i dont even understant what can be messy or tricky when applying higlighter? and i never had any product wasted. maybe if you are using wrong brush that's picking up a lot of product. I always apply it with the fan brush
didn't make it trough the evening - yes nothing will if you have skin prone to makeup not staying long on. i never have problem with this , i worked 10+hours shifts and it looked perfect at the end of the day

crunchy and ick?? absolutely not.

it is one of the smoothest, softest textures. beautiful glow, not in your face, gives instant face lift

 

[Monsy]

i do not know if you read trough this thread but when it was heard that dior is discontinuing this product a lot of us were shocked and unhappy since it's one of the best dior products ever

 

[Haven]

I think that PeachTwist was asking about the face hilighting powder, and some responses were about the nail powder - causing some confusion.

My thoughts....

Nail powder = garbage
Face powder =

Oh and thank you Katred for recommending Montmatre. Picked it up.

Now my package is going to be delivered on Tuesday instead of Monday.

I hate waiting.

 

[elkaknits]

haven had it right... omg so sorry. Off to google this product then. I admit to spending several years away from make-up except for the every once in a while lipstick of holiday palette pick me up. I honestly, as I am sure most of you, have more makeup than all the girls on a large unis sorority row could get through while they attempt to matriculate so a few years not paying attention did my face no real harm. Except for maybe here

oh noes

 

[elkaknits]

diorskin ultra shimmering face powder? it comes in rose powder as well? I totally never noticed it before cus of the words ultra shimmering it is da bomb?

Really? Temptalia recommended it to me, but I've been waffling about it ever since. If it's going to be dc'd, then I'd better pick it up! When I swatched it at sephora, it looked pretty sparkly. How do you guys use it? Just on the cheekbones? All over?

Cheek bones and nose bridge with a fan brush

You'll see it's amazing product. I am planning on buying it again for sure. I love new Dior nude shimmer (NM exclusive) too
