Welcome to the wonderful world of the 5 couleurs! Yes, I must spell it that way

I love these Dior quints so much but no longer buy due to eye allergies- I have easily bought over 30 in the last decade.

Cuir Cannage is stunning, I would buy it if I was sure it would not irritate my eyes!

Enjoy!!!
Have you narrowed down the ingredient that is causing the allergy?

Oh no, that sucks. :( Allergies are no fun. Wow, but your collection must look amazing!!

Mm you are making me so excited to receive it. I am on some kinda crazy e/s kick right now and I love Dior, lol.
It's a great collection, I might take a pic before I condense it and give some away!

I'm sure you will love it, it's the first one that immediately caught my attention, it looks like the star of the collection!

Enjoy!

I have had allergy testing, more so for things like food/the environment, and I had a patch test with 7 eye make-up items, all but one irritated my skin. I'm seeing a Professor who has diagnosed occular rosacea, and make-up is a definite trigger. But, I can sometimes wear a Clarins eye pencil, and every now and then I'll wear eyeshadow- some are easier to wear than others, but it's so rare I wear it that it feels strange now! I'm lipstick obsessed and more so than before the allergies! I don't like to go against the family (Dior!):haha: but it was a shocker. It's a great collection, I might take a pic before I condense it and give some away!

Sorry you have to go through all that. ps Going against The Family lol

I'm glad you now have some answers MissTania---just wish they were better ones. You now know what you're dealing with!

​ I think it's time for the family (Dior)

to step back & regroup. We know they can do better!!!

I picked up both of the Holiday quints this past week- and I'm in love.

Has anyone else tried Golden Reflections as a wet quint? That lovely grey-lavender shade has very little pigmentation dry, but came alive wet for me.

I'm already plotting my Sephora VIB purchase- I suspect skincare is out, and quints are in! I'm thinking Trafalgar is next purchase.

Glad you're loving & enjoying the holiday quints. I passed on them, but previously purchased Bar, Trafalgar, Cuir Cannage & Montaigne. Trafalgar is really very special,
and the pigmentation is insane--in a very good way! I hope you like it too.

I wanted to share my thoughts on Dior addict it lash mascara

pretty nice surprise for me. I usually like volumizing mascaras like Lancome hypnose, Chanel volume etc... This kind of a brush / comb doesn't give as much volume as those but gives way more than I expected. Also does not clump at all and nicely coats every single lash. I loved how gentle formula is, feels so lightweight on the lashes and doesn't make them stiff even after couple of coats.

Wow, your lashes look great! I have this mascara too and sadly didn't get such awesome results. Maybe I put it on wrong >O<

(is it ok to make a double post? D: )

Just got my e/s from Nordstrom! sans samples, but they apparently decided to set out on a separate voyage. I have to say, there was NO other packing in my box, just the e/s in a bag...I'm really glad the palette wasn't ruined due to it. Have already spoken with customer service about it.

Anyway~ wheee!!





Sooooo pretty!!!!!

That's so unlike Nordies...they typically over-package--even the samples. I'm glad your palette wasn't damaged. Cuir Cannage is indeed a beauty. I haven't even worn it yet!

I noticed with my last nordies beauty order samples were not even offered

I think I got three samples (their standard offering) w/ each of my last several beauty orders and I opted for the MAC mascara which I love using for my lower lashes w/
each order. That seems so unusual for Nordies.
