There is a new foundation, diorskin forever, which comes in both liquid and powder. There are 4 shades for powder and I think 6 shades for liquid. For liquid 21 seems seems a good match for me but the sample sachet only comes in 20. I got one and I can't wait to try it. It looks promising. It will be good when i need slightly better coverage, since all my foundations now only give light coverage. Is Dior going to discontinue an old line or just adding Forever?

I finally cracked and purchased two Dior quints and I love them!! So soft and smooth and shimmery.

I picked up 208 and 409 and I'm very pleased with them. I think I'll be coming back to Dior next time I have some money tucked away.

If you like all the colours then Dior quints are actually great value! I don't know the quints by numbers; what colours did you get?

Anybody seen these? I could get really excited and they are Re-useable!http://www.sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P295604&om_mmc=ret-us%2Bnews1%2B20110831%2Binnovation%2Bvib-he-vibdioreyepatches&emtc=us%2Bnews1%2B20110831%2Binnovation%2Bvib&ematg=1691050952&dcid=469228:19872109232:32822206#moreInfo

208 is Navy Design. A palette of blues with a deep navy cream liner and a sparkling glitter that's blue/green/teal/periwinkle

409 is Tropical Lighy. A palette of greens and neutrals (Brown, taupe, etc)

I've been loving them so far! And, here in Canada, they're very affordable! Around 15 dollars more than a MAC Quad.

^^ Hi! What are you interested in? I've tried some Dior items, but not a lot, and I find them a hit and miss. I love the foundation diorskin extremefit but it seems to be replaced by diorskin forever, which I've tried and don't like it because it just sits on top of my skin and accentuates my pores. I never had problems with liquid foundation. But generally their foundations are good. You can try the new smoky eyeshadow trios, or the quints which can be a high or miss so choose wisely. I also like the mascara dioshow iconic. The shimmer powder which is like a highlighter gets very good reviews too. Finally, I like dior fragrances! I have Miss Dior Cherie edp, and I want MDC blooming bouquet too. I also want Hypnotic poison, and J'adore is one of those that is lurking at the back of my mind to pick it up, but there is always something else that want to be bought first.

Hmm well.. I'm not too familiar with Dior. I own Miss Dior Cherie & I love it! I've been eyeballing Diorskin Nude, however, I have oily skin so I'm not sure how good of an idea that would be. My skin likes Chanel VA so I might end up giving Diorskin Nude a shot. I love blushes. I like anything that can basically make my mornings fast. I'm guilty of putting on my eye shadow in the bus, so convenience is a bonus. Which quints are good? I usually wear neutrals since they go with anything, but I don't exclude colors. :3

Hi ladies! What would you suggest as a first purchase for Dior?
It's all very good quality so it just depends what appeals to you and what holes you might be willing to fill in your collection. If you really like a Dior product at the store then you'll probably like it when you wear it too because the products generally wear well. Their highlighters, matte bronzers, 5-colour eyeshadow, and the lipsticks are all popular choices and their foundation range is very good.

Has anyone else tried the 360 mascara? I got mine yesterday and tried it on today. So far i like it a lot. It separates my lashes really nice. I only wanted to try it because of the cool brush, but it actually works so well that i might want to buy it again. Well if i ever want to spend that amount of money on a mascara...

^^ Sounds good. I would try it if I can get a sample.


I swatched 5 of them: Black, Blue, Nude, Khaki and Pink. My counters didn't get Brown, not sure if it will be coming it later. My favourites are Pink and Nude. They are smooth and pigmented and the packaging is sleek, but it is pricey. There is a shimmery shade in each trio, which crumbles if I pressed my finger too hard against it. I'm not sure if there will be any fallout.

thanks for your input, missqq! I was interested in the smoky pink shade, but i did swatch it at a counter really quickly and it didn't seem as pigmented as it looked on Cafe Makeup. I looked at it again at Sephora today and i liked it better, but you're right - it is pricey relative to other options and i would be concerned about the sparkly one too!

^^ Are the colours in the quint pigmented and are they more warm or cool? From the pics it looks neutral cool and I know I will like it if it's not warm. I agree about the leopard print one, it is not practical and easy to use.

I swatched the Mitzah shadow palette in Sephora yesterday and I was pleasantly surprised by how pigmented it was. It was lovely and had it been cheaper, I would've picked it up. I just can't spend that much money on colors I have dupes of. Plus, I'm not the biggest Dior fan. It's very good quality, though from what I could see.

I've been lusting after the Mitzah Quint since I saw it. I'm not as big on the Mitzah palette itself. It looks pretty, but it's more of a collector's item in my eyes.
