DIOR 5 COULEUR DESIGNER EYE PALETTE: GREEN WITH ENVY

Hello Divas!




Day 16 features Dior Cosmetics.  Dior is a favorite of mine....not my absolute favorite, which is Lancome, but I love their eye cream and lip glosses.  The eye palettes are Fierce, but I have never purchased one.  Maybe I will for the holiday season.






Day 16
I spent my entire summer attending weddings. I tried to create a new makeup look each time, but it seemed that I could only work the smokey eye. Lucky for me, the makeup artists are now creating smokey eyes with colors other than the traditional browns and blacks. I ran across two Dior palettes that I really loved. One purple that matched my bridesmaid dress and another green. Unfortunately, my budget would allow me to choose only one. Because I was obligated to wear the fuchsia bridesmaid dress, I purchased the purple palette. 
I keep thinking of the lovely green palette though. It contains a "creamy blendable base, one versatile iridescent eye shadow, one satiny contouring shade, one shimmering highlighter and one sultry, intensely matte eyeliner, plus two double-ended applicators" that help you get that doe eyed shimmer right in the corners of your eyes. The Dior colors are so rich, and even though green is probably the color that looks less favorable on me, I love the green on my eyes.  Greens and blues really enhance deep brown eyes.  The Dior 5 Coulers Designer Eye Palette is 58.00 at Nordstrom.

Christian Dior's Addict Lipcolor in Mauve Opulent

Hello Divas!

I hope you had a truly fabulous Labor Day Weekend!

I have a new lipstick that I absolutely love! Christian Dior Addict Lipcolor in Mauve Opulent. I recently had lunch and a makeover at Neiman Marcus and I chose to receive a makeover from Christian Dior. Besides their DiorShow Mascara, I had not really tried any of their other products. Chi Chi, the Dior makeup artist, did a fantastic job on my face and she used this color on my lips. Talk about love at first sight! This color is a dark pink and it looks absolutely fantastic with my Chesnut Mac lip pencil! Such a hot color for fall! Plus can you really get over the packaging???? I mean Christian Dior does it big! The packaging is so creative! Love! Plus the lipstick feels great on your lips. It is moisturizing and light weight! Dior Addict Lipcolor comes in 20 beautiful shades and retails for $26. You can purchase it online or at any Sephora!

Toodles!

Luxe Parfum: Christian Dior's Pure Poison

Hello Divas!

I hope your week is filled with beauty and love.

I have discovered a new parfum that I really like, Christian Dior's Pure Poison. It is a great re-interpretation of the original Poison parfum. Do you guys remember how Poison was all the rage in the 80s? My aunt wore it and I would sneak a spray on my adolescent wrists. LOL! Well Pure Poison has the same seductive flair as the original but it is much lighter. It has a nice flowery undertone that perfectly balances the heavy musk tones of the parfum. This parfum is perfect for a "heavy" date night. I like to call it grown and sexy! When you first apply it, it seems really strong. But when the scent settles down, it is just perfect! Another thing I love about this parfum is that you only have to spray a small amount and it lasts and lasts. There is absolutely no need to reapply. Love!

A 1 oz. bottle of Pure Poison Eau de Parfum retails for $56 (not bad) and you can purchase it online here or at any Sephora.

Toodles!
