  [COLOR=0000FF] I was attracted to Contrite Horizon but I don't possess the skills required to make a palette like that work.[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF]  Yes, I did Monsy and I've used it twice already------It's very neutral as were the looks that I constructed.  It's a lot like Montaigne-----I'm very drawn to those particular colors.[/COLOR]
Hmm, I doubt that!

I keep on watching the Dior tutorial on the contraste horizon, and do a "light" version of that.
They also had videos from Birds of Paradise and Transat that played with those colours. They're not on the site anymore, but I'll upload them. Hopefully, Dior won't sue me, lol.

> This uses a strong blue and just that, so just the bottom right but well blended towards the crease.

'Transat' Summer Makeup Collection 2013 - Transat Look

What are the must haves for the Dior summer line?
As much as I hate yellow, the yellow nail polish I actually like. I also like the turquoise eye kohl. If you are not in the States, the Bleached Turquoise mascara is a keeper might to check out Platine eye kohl too.. Not sold here, as well as the pink and plum lip shines. Chanel did have a Plantine liquid liner Holiday 2013. So if you have that, I would skip it. Lip products nice product, nothing special. And the blush. It has not been drying on me, or super fly away of loose product. Nor do I have a clown issue, but I use a light hand. The Sunset on me, is orange. But the Sunrise is perfect!!! Skip the tie dye nail top coat unless you have the patience of Job, and are very artistic. So for me top picks, the blush and yellow nail polish.

Poor poor poor wallet!! The creme eyeshadows seem amazing !
I thought I was going to have a relatively safe fall lineup, I would get a couple of things but not much. Now this.

Horrifying.

Tell me these eyeshadows / blushes are permanent. My wallet can't take all of this.

> Six Fluid Shadow, supposedly mimic the Fluid Sticks but for eyes.
> Three Stick Blushes - a pink, a coral, and the rosewood
> The rest as we knew, the 2 5-colors eyeshadows, five nail polishes, the highlighter, and the eyebrow pencils relaunch

Ugh, do I purchase the Armani Shadow and Flannel during the F&F sale, or do I wait for these??? The YSL cream shadows are just a tad bit too 1970's. I wasn't even born then, but the pics from that era show this look. Also, have you noticed very few high end companies offer a true khaki eyeliner? Sisley just came out with one but for 50.00 it is a bit much for even me to handle. So the Dior should be in the actual store tomorrow or the next day. Must have the khaki brow pencil. Perfect for CT cream shadow in the same color range!!!!

I bought from Sisley the Dream Palette when there was 30% on Sisley products at Sephora last week and I am very excited by the quality ! But Sisley is not a brand that I reach often as it is too expensive for products that I can easily find in other brands.the palette though is worth every penny.
