One of my very good Chanel ladies moved to Dior & I am SO happy about it. She said she will give me gifts & freebie perks. No more crazy sales ladies...I'll leave that for the Chanel SA

I hope they are not sticky but still stay on my lips and not migrate out of my lip lines, and also moisturising. My counters are getting 16 shades. Maybe I'll get a pink or coral-pink.

The fluid lipsticks in a few words ::

- Not sticky
- Not drying but not moisturizing
- Vibrant colours yet not overwhelming ( quite the opposite in fact )
- Quite long wearing BUT if you don't eat or drink
- Very easily wearable
- Enhances the beauty of the lips
- Does migrate out of the lip though ( in my experience )
- Very pretty packaging

temptalia review for the golden shimmer powder

As much as I like the look on medium or darker skin, I'm afraid it'll look silly on my pale face. I'll have to try it on.

Too golden for pale skin. Money saved

 

[User38]

Ditto.. I hate that much golden glimmer.

 

[Monsy]

I do like golden -bronze but this is simply too much..

This looks lovely but I think it might be too yellow toned for me

 

[SlugPower]

Swatches of the whole fluid line.

These are all permanent correct? I've seen a few places that list four of them as limited edition. It's bad because I want two of the ones that were put as limited editions.

beautiful swatches thank you

I got to play with the fluid sticks at the counter. The full collection comes with 4 nail polishes, and matching dior addict and dior addict extreme lipsticks, like colormeloud's blog. I tried 479 Magique and it was beautiful! It was face brightening without being too loud. It didn't feel drying or moisturising, but I got a slight tingling sensation. Normally my lips don't have such sensation to most glosses or liquid lip formula, so I'm not sure if it is my lips becoming more sensitive lately or it is this formula. But the sensation didn't bother me much and didn't last very long. I actually like the consistency of dior the most, more than YSL glossy stains and chanel discontinued RAL, and any other brands'. Best of all, dior doesn't have any scent that I detected. On to the new nail polishes brushes. They are not as wide, and slightly longer than the old ones. They are still wider than most brushes, but the new bristles feel more flexible. I love it. I like the old ones, I had no problems with them since my nails are quite wide. But I know that it is impossible to apply for those with tiny nails. I think the new ones are much better, even for me! Pandore dior addict is gorgeous! It is a tad brighter (more red) than Adventure. Both are beautiful, those who want a bolder shade can go with Pandore. The nude tan golden's finish looks amazing, but I think it is too gold for me so I'll pass. Looking forward to the ones replacing amber and rose shimmer powder. Apologies for the long post. Dior makes me excited lately.

Apologies for the long post. Dior makes me excited lately.

Thak you very much for the review! I am delighted that the Fluid Sticks come with mathing Dior Addict Extreme lipsticks. Of course I cannot know before I have tried, but the word "fluid" alone, makes me imagíne myself with red color smeared all over the mouth area. Now I don't have to put up with an unsuitable texture because I've fallen in love with a certain color.

It sounds as if the new nail polishes are better for me than the old ones. Now I can hardly wait.

21 shades ( np ) and a gorgeous texture ! Pandore, Massaï or 999 are beautiful and the gel effect is very good. As for the fluid sticks they feel fresh on the lips I think, I havent seen Dior Addict in Pandore, next week.

 

[elegant-one]

Sooooo many beautiful things! Thanks SP & MissQQ

 

[commandolando]

What a beautiful quint! But which one is it? It doesn't look anything like the two summer quints I have seen.

 

[zaccc]

It's an exclusive set for harrods I think. I found out this morning at harrods.com "just in" section.
I think it is more like another exclusive collection for Harrods, like the transatlantic collection for Saks.

I ordered four of the new gel nail polishes and am so disappointed with them. I haven't tried them yet, I'm just really upset about the colors. I ordered Mirage, Adventure, Wonderland and Front Row. They are all like straight up, neon, pretty much. They are so flipping bright. They look nothing like the promo images, just to warn you. Like Wonderland reminds me of a Sinful Neon polish. All three of the ones that go with the fluid sticks do. Not what I was expecting at all. Some people love that I know, I'm just not one of them. Front Row I kind of like. But the others, just, sigh. They are not what I thought they would be. So, if you don't like bright colors, make sure you check for reviews or check them out in the store first.

EDIT - I returned/exchanged all of the ones I bought except for Front Row, that was the only one I really liked. It's bright, but not over the top bright. The others just remind me too much of the Sinful Neon Colors that used to come out each summer. (I used to work in a drug store, so I saw them every, single, year.)
