Dior Cosmetics Discussion

Yes, they are doing 10% off on some of their brands. Thinking of picking up Dior Cuir Cannage and Bobbi Brown Pink Glow.

Exactly! I got those two things, because I wanted them, and couldn't get them in the sephora sale.

 

[purplemaren]

yes they usually do that whenever sephora has any kind of sale

Good observation! Now that I think about it, the things on sale are brands sephora carries. Generally, when there isn't a 20% sale at sephora, and something is available both places, I go with nordstrom, because the rewards are so much better.

 

[purplemaren]

I usually only buy things at sephora that I can't buy at nordstrom or ulta (unless there is a very large ebates reward for sephora)

SO beautiful! I almost passed out when I saw how much it would cost to be shipped to USA though. So sad. Do you know if we'll be getting it over here?

Wow I just bought a bunch of Dior product yesterday, guess I need to go back and get a PA.

Nordies does not have Delicate Shock or Enchanting Shock which naturally were the ones I was gravitating toward.

@EllaS Great swatches, thanks for sharing the links.

I am happy to say I have no interest in any of these!

I really want a swatch of that pink highlighter to crop up soon- which I hope I hate

but most probably will love!

Same here -- I bought some Bobbi Brown stuff before the 10% sale at Nordies and they granted me a PA on everything I've purchased within the last week....

Ooooh finally! I love them! I think I like daring shock the most. I wanted to pick up a red one, too. But I'll see how the swatches turn out on me. My SA is supposed to be calling me when they finally get their stock in. I am leaning towards a polish, too. The bottles are beaauutiful! Not sure what color I'd get. Perhaps gold. She also has a photo of Pink Shock and it looks soo pretty. However I want to see swatches (esp. on a fair skin girl so i can compare), I'm scared to order from the UK, pay an arm and a leg for shipping... And not like it.

My wallet is hoping I hate it, too! But it looks so pretty in pan. Hope it translates into swatches.

Thanks so much for the links to swatches. I searched all over and didn't find any. I didn't think to try Instagram. I just got an account a few days ago and I'm still figuring things out.

Hated both not buying either they are not highlighters, I say they are a bit similar to mac beauty powders especially the pink one the yellow one is weird it had some bits of glitter in it so I don't know what use this would have because it is way too yellow and slightly chunky and doesn't have enough glitter or shimmer to be a highlight . Extremely disappointed in them. The matte and shimmer lipsticks looked so gimmicky too I can't help but think dior just did it to be one of the first to have this dual lipstick in their range.

Oh, ew. That looks powdery and not flattering at all. Pass for sure, now. Thank you so much for saving my wallet!

No problem! I usually go to ink361.com or iconosquare.com and search by hashtag. They catalogue the instagram posts so you can find all kinds of goodies there

I think that I will end up with only the quints from this collection.

Thank you for the swatches, I will skip as expected. I have one from the Holiday 2013 collection, I don't wear it that often and that pan is so difficult to open !

Thanks for sharing!!! I still held out hope for the pink highlighter, but after this it's definitely a pass. Bobbi Brown has much better fall/holiday highlighter offerings.

I'm a little taken aback, and agree that it looks so powdery, it looks so thick! I'm passing unless I have a different experience swatching in person. Happy to save some money though!

Thank you so much for your pics and thoughts on these, what a shame such a gorgeous looking product swatched so poorly!
