As soon as I smelled it, I thought "Oh, so that's what they were talking about."

I love the Les Beiges scent too. I'm not a fan of the Guerlain scent, it's too strong for me, but the Dior and Chanel ones are divine!I love opening this storage container that I have all of my dior products in. It always smells divine. I would love to know what the scent is. Same with the Chanel Les Beiges powder. It has the most wonderful scent too. Chanel says that they are turning that smell into a perfume.
Other than that, I don't really like my mu to have a scent.

I went by the Dior counter last night at The Bay and their sampler of CB did not have a scent. Perhaps I should try Sephora...
How would you ladies describe the smell?

Its a very very light refreshing very slight maybe sweet floral smell. Like smelling a fresh rose but not real strong. I noticed that mine has dissipated a bit since I first got it

I agree!

I bought Coral Bagatelle blush. Even if I don't use it often, it's such a pretty colour I couldn't pass. I had to contact my Dior dealer (what else would I call her at this point) and she got me one, I don't know through what magic because it's sold out everywhere I went. I knew the moment that I saw the package shots months ago that it was going to fly off the shelves really fast. I wasn't wrong, ahah!
Porcelaine and Bouquet nail polish as well. Perlé gives a nice effect, but since I buy colours because I already like them as they are, I don't see myself using it often. I'd imagine its a good one to hide imperfections though.
I was very tempted at buying the LE lip glow, but it seems so expensive for such a simple product... I sound like my mother. I tried to convert my mother into the new capture totale foundation, but she ran away when she saw the price. She's very cheap on makeup, for some reason. Not that it stops her from going through my stash of things when she gets a hold of them. Of course then she loves everything and is tempted to buy, only to flee when she sees the price. I don't want to make the same mistake as her, especially on an LE. Is it worth it, is it not?
I also wonder about the primers? The eye primer, pore minimiser and glow maximiser? Are they good? I can't really tell with just one application and unfortunetly they couldn't give me samples of any of that.

I got the matte primer, it's no different to any other primer out there, theres certainly better ones. It's similar to benefit pporefessional but more matte. Im gunna sell it on ebay, buy a better one.

I swatched the glow maximizer at sephora last night. I was a bit confuses at first cuz I didn't notice anything under that horrible sephora light. And then I got a lovely surprise when I walked out the store. It left this glowy gold finish on my hand. I saw tiny tiny sparkles though.

Yesterday, I got samples of the DreamSkin & Capture Totale One Essential Super Serum which both get great reviews.
So I used my Clarisonic & then used the Super Serum before I went to bed & I swear that this morning my skin looked near flawless & the texture was very smooth. I don't know if they claim any kind of almost instant results but I definitely noticed it. I used some this morning & noticed the difference in my skin again even more. Hmmm. I did not like the DreamSkin on the back of my hand even though it made the skin silky smooth, but I loved how soft & silky it makes my face skin feel. On my hand it seemed too slick feeling. I hope there is enough in the dang tiny sample tubes to see how it is after a few days use.

I got the same email. I'm wondering if it's really being discontinued, or just dropped from Sephora? EDIT: I called Dior and the Shimmering Star powders ARE being discontinued. The lady said they are being repackaged/renamed/reformulated and will be launched in May.
