Singing-----MJ's You Are not Alone as WE sashay toward the makeup counter

ICL, you might want to get all 3....that's how I missed out on Rose Diamond! Not enabling---just don't want you crying in your soup while we're all running
around in our Diorskin Nude Shimmers 01 (Pink)......and 02 Amber and that gorgeous Gold.

Oh wow! I should get all 3? You are a super enabler!

Don't think the thought hasn't crossed my mind.

Well, I called Saks - no dice soldout. Well then I went into stalk mode. I really want it now. I called another Saks and she said they never got it in. They got everything else in the collection except that. She said she would look into ordering it for me and call me back. Some of the salespeople are so nice. Anyway, I think it is unlikely. I will have to console myself by thinking that I must have a similar color in all my gazillion highlighters.

Anyway, does anyone know if it is exclusive to Saks for a period or if only Saks will have the highlighter.

I believe it was exclusive to Saks and Dior Palazzo boutique. I know that Dior Palazzo in Las Vegas had a few available recently. It make sense to call and ask. Ask for Massiel, she is really nice - she might find one for you.

yep, they are completely different.

then they should be named differently and they should have kept both products

Yeah, I think that really makes sense. They should have done that because the original has such a huge love following.

 

[Monsy]

the original has such a huge love following.

exactly. And I was one of those people and I am highly disappointed with discontinuing them.

Hey, I just got a Nordies note today, so I bought the pearl Meteorites

I'm so glad you suggested them.

 

[Monsy]

what shade did you get? i hope the lightest ones they will be perfect for you
i think now they are 02 (former 01)

they are the best thing ever. I overdo the blush just put some meteorites on top, blend blend and looks perfect. i use them all over too it's the best powder to set liquid foundation and it makes me look photoshoped really

Yes, I got 02 Clair. They are so soft & pretty on. I love dusting it over my decollete

It looks insanely flawless/photoshoped dusted over Chanel's Velvet foundation.

Those 2 are an awesome duo

Has anyone tried the fluid lipsticks yet?

I have Tiny Pink and Rieuse and love them! On me they don't migrate outside the lips. I am old, lol, so that can be a problem for me with some products but it doesn't happen with these. Since Dominique does have that issue with them I think you'd have to try one to be sure about that on you. The brighter colors are pretty, and can be worn as a stain but I decided they were still too much for me. Here are Sabrina's swatches of the more sedate ones:

Oh my goodness, those ^^ 2 shades are just beautiful on. Do they look the same shades on pigmented lips?

Didn't know that Fed Ex deliver so late at nights. I got a surprise doorbell ring last night at 1019pm for a Saks box delivery. Confusion and perplexity set in as I had no pending order with Saks. When I opened the package I found the discontinued Dior Amber Diamond that I enlisted Saks staff to help me locate. A member was ISO it so one was found and shipped from New Orleans. Gifted! Awesome Dior customer service going above and beyond! Making a ton of wrongs right!

Lucky girl! Boy that is a late delivery though.

 

[Winthrop44]

Yep, they are very pigmented products.

 

[elegant-one]

Yep, they are very pigmented products.

Thanks - thats great to hear. I kinda laughed when I read 'Tiny' Pink...it just sounds funny to me for some reason lol. I will have to get those 2 then. I really love how Rieuse looks on.

 

[novocainedreams]

it should not be LE

how sad when I see comparison swatch clearly one product CAN NOT replace another one

That doesn't even look like an "illuminator" it looks like a blush. It's pretty don't get me wrong but...it's not the same. :-/

Bought Mayday yesterday. I read somewhere that it was an orange based red which made me avoid it in the first place. But it's certainly not an orange based red. Actually it's a rarely true red and very well pigmented for an Addict to be. I am very happy with it!

Again I tested the bronzer/highlighter, but I didn't buy (yet). I am very pale, and I think I might just look better with a white highlighter.

 

[Dominique33]

My list ( after seeing the collec,. in person this very morning ) : - both quints - the 3 powders - Captain and Sailor np Possibly mayday too, it looks very pigmented ) !

I am not an isolate case the last review on Sephora.fr was " nul " that is F ! Around 55% are positive feed-back though but many say it is not long wearing at all, many are much disappointed among them some Sephora girls who told me it was really not that good ( 32€ ) for the price. I agree the fluid lipstick could have been better. The formula is incrédibly light on the lips, easy to wear too but clearly not as " high end as initially expected,

 

[Winthrop44]

Oh yes, I know you aren't an isolated case.

I read your previous post about the reviews on the French Sephora site. Like any other makeup or skincare product they will be YMMV. On me...they are the longest wearing lip product I own...and I never get the wear times that Temptalia quotes for lip products she reviews, mine are much shorter. And (again for me personally) scent can be a big problem, and these are very lightly scented to my nose. It's just a very individual thing.
