I've been waiting forever to get the Dior Nude Air Lumanizer #003 from Nordies online - they only had #001 online until recently. I can't order from Sephora so I had to wait it out.
It looks very yellow gold and I hope it will be close to my beloved Dior Transat edition Highlighter which I have hit pan on.
For some reason, #003 did not make it here. It looks great in these swatches:

Nordies has 003? That's the one I wanted. I thought it was a Dior and Sephora exclusive. I should have checked for it when I was placing my UD x Basquiat order yesterday
Sorry to have missed out on Transat, that's the nicest one, to me

Yay! So glad you could finally get it! Funny thing, I ended up buying 004 after reading The Beauty Lookbook review of it. She raves about it and I think it will look gorgeous in the summer when I have more color. It hasn't arrived yet, but I'm crossing my fingers that it's good on my skin tone.
Hope that 003 is like your beloved Transat♥

The new quints arrived today. We'll get ten of them in my country. The mattes are nicely pigmented, but the satiny have poor color pay off. I'll go back and play more with them when I have recovered from this cold (that has kept me bare faced in a week now! 
).

I almost made the same comment/mistake. Dior is owned by LVMH under Bernard Arnault.
Salma's husband is François-Henri Pinault. He owns a different company. It was once called PPR and became Kering in 2013.
The brands under Kering are Gucci, Yves Saint-Laurent, Bottega Veneta, Balenciaga, Boucheron, Alexander McQueen and Stella McCartney...

004 is gorgeous in person but too dark for me. On a medium to darker skin tone, it would look amazing, I hope it's just right for you! Let us know how you fare!
I'm looking forward to comparing 003 to Transat. I am confident I will love it, as I do all my gold highlighters

I had pretty much given up hope for Nordies or Saks getting it, I thought it was a Sephora/Dior exclusive too, however I noticed that Nordies had arm swatches for all 4 highlighters recently and I was planning to contact them to find out if they were getting the remaining shades and before I had a chance to, they appeared. The arm swatches are here:

I'm sure 003 will be yours soon! Transat was my first ever highlighter and it is really amazing. They should re-release it. I'll let you know if 003 is similar.

I had a quick look at some of the Care and Dare collection the other day - I was not particularly interested. Of the 2 nude air powders, the lightest seemed very light and like it would not have any effect on me and the darker shade was way too dark for light skin. The white Nail Polish might be nice, it had a micro shimmer through it which I think would be very subtle like some of their other shades with micro shimmer (i.e. almost undetectable once applied but giving the colour some shine on the nails and not a matte flat finish). I'll probably go back for it.
Attract Quint was absolutely gorgeous, if I didn't have sensitive eyes I would have bought it instantly.
I didn't see the liquid luminizers and forgot to ask. I'll have a look next time.

I'm sure it will be gorgeous on you! I have high hopes for 004 in the warmer months and perhaps I can try it as a shadow. Looks so gorgeous in pictures online.
Let us know what you think of 003!

I saw the new quints yesterday. Ten of them made it to Scandinavia. They are all considerably darker than their predecessors - most of them contain only one light shadow where we used to have two in most palettes. Only two of them (Magnify and Electrify) don't contain at least two browns. If you're a warm skinned, brown-eyed brunette there're plenty of colors for you, but if you - like I - happen to be a cool blonde, you may feel a bit left out. I tried Electrify, but was so disappointed by the lack of pigmentation in the dark color that I didn't buy it (I'll probably buy it another day though). Them I tried Magnify which is beautiful, creamy and well pigmented. It's nice to see a real purple again. However, I have so many similar colors that didn't buy it.
The most interesting of the new quints are the mattes. Their texture is even better than before, they are very well pigmented, and the colors are easy-to-wear classics. I'm sure it'll please many that they've brought good old "Incognito" (030) back again. The colder matte "Dream" will make it into my collction when I have finished sulking over the many browns.

It would be a really nice shadow I think. I should have it in about a week.
I wore Sassy today - I quite like it. It looked like MAC Hollywood Cerise at first but after a meal it had dried down and looked more like my usual fuchsias. I was surprised that it lasted after a meal as it had applied quite slippery and was moisturising at first, however the dry down explains the lasting power. I'm sure you will like it!

10 of the new quints made it to the French Sephora
157 Magnify, 277 Defy, 357 Electrify, 537 Touch, 567 Adore, 647 Undress, 657 Expose, 757 Dream, 767 Inflame and 797 Feel
Both 657 Expose and 767 Inflame are listed as limited editions (I thought they were all permanent? My mistake)
767 Inflame is already sold out on the site even though it was probably only launched Friday at the earliest. I hope they restock, it was the one I was interested in

Oh, I am sorry Expose and Inflame are limited editions. The SA's at the local counter haven't got that point.
I hope you'll be able to get Inflame! It's very beautiful indeed. The dark color in the right lower corner is a deep, dramatic eggplant with just a small hint of ochre shimmer. I wish they had put that color in some of the other palettes too.
