Dior My Lady 007 - Its a beautiful pinky peachy shade with subtle pretty shimmer. Its very cloudy today so pics are a little lame.

Mine was not powdery at all. The shade is so pretty & is buildable. You can make it go more pink or more peach depending on where you swipe it. I just used the little kabuki brush that came with it.

I tried mine again today with a different brush and to use less product. It looks nicer on the face but nothing special. Just another pinky coral blush. and a lot of powder in the compact even though I just gently touched it with the brush

Meh... one big meh for me.

I'm going to play Debbie Downer for a moment.

Dior used to be one of those lines that I'd wait for news on their collections with baited breath. I think I picked up one polish from Spring, 2 shadows from Holiday, 1 polish from Fall, nothing from last summer.... it was last spring that I last went nuts on the collection (every polish aside from the topcoat, the Diorshow Fusion, the Rouge Dior, and the gloss). I've been loving the polishes from Spring 2013 as of late (I forgot how kick-butt Diablotine is!).

I guess what I'm saying is that it's been a long time since Dior has really captivated me with a collection. I'm really hoping that this changes soon, but I'm also wondering if I'm the only one that feels this way. Am I the only Dior Diva who hasn't been showing much love for the brand over the past year or so?

And to answer why, I'm not sure. I feel like a lot of their collections are too formulaic (take the holiday polishes- they're the same shades every single year essentially; there's only so many ways to do a coral red like Glory from Spring 2014, etc, etc). I want to yell "shut up and take my money" at them, but I'm just not there right now.

Dior has never been a "must have the whole collection" from me. I picked up a few pieces here and there. That being said, I'm excited for that Tie Dye collection. When is that hitting?

I experienced a little powder with 002 last week but NONE whatsoever with 007, and I've worn it twice since I got it.

Dior Fall 2015
Cosmopolite

This season, the Dior woman is animalistic and assured, and her makeup is a reflection of this, with a sustained, intense gaze. In plum, khaki and purple from the 5 Couleurs Cosmopolite Exubérante palette, and in bronze and blue from the 5 Couleurs Cosmopolite Eclectic palette, both groups come from the first collection created by Peter Philips bowing for autumn 2015. The shadow is cleanly laid down as solid color and defined with a pre-moistened sponge applicator. Eyeshadows in autumnal tones are accentuated by a sweep of eyeliner drawn along the edge of the lid by the beveled nib of a black Diorshow Pro Liner pen, and lashes are sheathed in Diorshow Maximizer , then densified by using blackDiorshow Pro mascara.

In contrast to the intensity lent the eyes, the rest of the face has a natural look. Unified by a fluid foundation, any imperfections located around the eye area are blurred by a few finger taps with theFix it 2-in-1 Prime & Concealer , and as an ultimate burst of light, Diorskin Nude Cosmopolite illuminator is dabbed on the cheekbones. Similarly, the lips, simply dabbed with the Fix it 2-in-1 Prime & Concealer stick, display a discreetly gentle color.

A symbol of this instinctive and liberated approach to beauty, each hand boasts nails of different shades, creating unique and eclectic combinations: the black of Black Out, the metallic blue of Darling Blue, or the grayed green of Metropolis and Cosmopolite purplish red,all four from the Cosmopolite collection, along with the intense bordeaux of the legendary Nuit 1947. This set of tones echoes the asymmetry of the outfits designed by Raf Simons and the hair pulled into a long ponytail over one shoulder.

The blue eyeshadow and polish look good but I'll have to skip. Thanks for the info!

Looks great! I think someone asked for swatches. I couldn't find the post but swatches just weren't working. It doesn't show up much on my hand but it did show up quietly nicely on my cheeks. I used it this morning with the Nars Yachiyo brush and it put a bit more than I wanted so I powdered it down. It kind of reminds me of Ripe Peach as you can get two shades of peach from it. Pretty and I'm glad I bought it. Probably not a must have from a person that must buy every shade of peach, nectarine and orange blush on the market. But I really do like the two tone effect. I think someone said they were only getting the base shade but I was able to get two shades from this.
