I got a bit wrapped up in the packaging of Westman atelier - it’s silly, but that pretty green … and new colors too - I like it - and I am hoping the guerlain eyeshadows are a nice formula - packaging pretty, but pink eyeshadows again … no so happy there - or with gold and silver everywhere else - so I agree so far 😅
I think the Westman Atelier sets are nice. And surprisingly well-priced. But the one set is already sold out. I’m just waiting for Black Friday and the Sephora sale to stock up on my everyday favorites and be done.
Have you seen the lancome one? Its actually surprisingly pretty but idk which formula it is. They used to have a more classic formula and they changed it to some powder dusty silky mess but it looked a lot better this time but ive never felt/tried out this holiday collections stuff
Hey Sofia, I swatched in store the silver/pink/purple eye shadow in store as I own a lot of Dior eyeshadows and I wanted to point out to others that if you already have the Dior d-floral, you have pretty much all the colours from this holiday pallete except for the purple shades which you either can get from another pallet like chanel cool or if you want even more pruple, from Byredo purple echo. Plus that shades of purple, I feel like it could be a hit or miss on some undertones. I wear the same shades of foundations as you, but the pool orange on me and with blue eyes, wrong purple can look like a back eye on me. Also, a little tip for your mature subscribers, which is a curtasy of Natasha Denona, if your eyelid skin moves as you blend your lux shadows and it moves skin with your ultra soft brushes, tap in the shadow instead of windshield motion that all content creator advocates for. This tip was a game changes for my 48 year old loose skin on eyes but you never ever see anyone mention it. Wait 20 years or so and you will understand what I mean😊❤ all the best.
I haven't bought a Dior Quint since the reformulations. It was this Holiday Collection that excited me to delve back in to try them once again. I have only just recieved them, so haven't had the time to admire the stunning embossing before I dive in. From what I've seen from various videos, I'm pleased with how pigmented the shades are in the Quints, yet find none of the pictures do the shades justice, as they are far more beautiful. I had already purchased the Backstage Eye Palette, the L/E Addict Lip Case and the Addict Lipstick in the plum shade, both nail polishes plus the heavenly Christmas Candle. I also purchased both of the Stylo Eye Pencils in Ruby and Amethyst which go beautifully with both Quints and definitely something to think about if buying these Quints. Chanel also came out with two Liquid Eye-Liners in very similar colours which can also be used with these Quints. I'm still tempted to buy the Peach Luminiser, yet have so many already, which is why I passed on the Backstage Face Palette, but it's so beautiful that I'm still on the fence. Normally, I'm not that interested in Holiday Collections, yet quite a number of products have been released that have peaked my interest this year. Although, not a Holiday release, Givenchy have a Couture Collection of Perfecto Lipsticks, Perfecto Liquid Balms and a Pressed Powder in a lovely packaging containing rose gold hearts. How could I resist? We're still waiting for their Holiday Collection, which I intend on buying the Eye Palette plus both Lipsticks. I would dearly love the Prada Eye Palette and the Byredo Quint, but Prada Beauty do not sell to Australia and Byredo is extremely hard to get hold of. I'm wondering if anyone has spied the Chanel Quads that were supposed to be part of an earlier Collection with the pans in the shape of camilias, although I haven't seen anyone with a video of these.🤷🏼♀️ I must admit that Dior really nailed it with their products and presentation this year, a step in the right direction. Thank you Sofia for this review.🇦🇺💖👩🏼🎨
"I love a good luxrul because it helps me decide if I want to buy the real thing or NOT." That part right there. That's IT. I feel like people stigmatize dupes but for me, I pause on large purchases that are trendy or when I feel the overconsumption mania setting in FOR ME. (It's something I struggle with LOL! I'm easily convinced to buy things I don't wear or use. They'll literally have the tags and I'll even forget I bought something and have 2 or 3 of them in my closet.) Love this video!
Thank you for showing the smoky and silver essentials, bc yeah, I can make a very similar look. I have nude glow from the main collection and it is a really good, versatile highlight. I still have my eye on the backstage one bc it is different and fun! I’ve been making a point of using my singles from Chanel, Dior, and chantecaille. Fun way to be creative, customize looks, and I love the quality on my 53 year old eyes. They stay out on my counter and remind me I don’t need to buy so many palettes anymore! All that said the 2d palette looks very beautiful and I’m drawn to it! Great review- have a great weekend!
Thank you, Sofia, for such a comprehensive review! You are the best at sharing your honest thoughts on products. The looks are always amazing! I’m always thankful I put my FOMO at bay until I watch your videos! Hope you have a wonderful day! Hi the the fur babies 🐱
Luka?!!!🥰🐾 I thought about him recently, if he’s doing ok, cause I haven‘t seen him in your videos since summer. He‘s gotten so big!! Thanks for keeping the clip with him in this video☺️ Hugs to both your lovely fluffballs, always enjoy when they show up in the background or in your arms and you talk about them. Thanks as well for the review, I really like the luminizer, this shade looks gorgeous✨
I bought the CdP, and Suqqu recent launches. I don’t feel like I’m missing anything skipping these. Thanks so much for buying everything we want to know about, and all your relevant only swatches. You’ve saved me money once again. I save, to shop another day.
Wasn’t going to get anything from this collection, but you sold me on the Soir de Bal and Corail highlighter, for which I used your links. Thanks for another great, in-depth, honest review! ❤
O wow, the entire rainbow looks gorgeous on you, i could not choose which quint, dear Sofia!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩Swimm in beautiful subtle highlighters, also shadows, but the cool toned quint is very beautiful, or as a gift!!! 2 people only around me blonde with blue eyes, but would make a gorgeous Christmas gift for (one of) them! Thanks for sharing all of this, and the eye and cheek demo's, comparisons and your honest thoughts Sofia, love your video's!!!😘😘😘😘
Thank you for doing such an early review I bought the highlighter, but thought the original promo photos made it look like it was more of a pink/ mauve highlighter or rose gold oh well I already bought it 😅 I bought the coral highlighter, a mauve lipstick 💄 and I’m going to get one of those eyeshadow pallets they come out with every year but the second quint you tried on did look very pretty 🌃✨ 🤩
Thank you for the review! The Soir de Bal palette is very pretty. The other palette is a definite pass. I prefer the Hermes ombré Mordorees’ palette for a much more warm and richer burgundy look. The luminizer is pretty and the packaging is beautiful and festive. Have a great day!
You’re the best when it comes to helping us spend our makeup dollars wisely. The luminizer compact looks lovely, and if I do end up purchasing anything from this collection, it will most likely be that piece based on your recommendation.
Definitely the cool one, I generally can’t understand why on earth they put so much reds in eye shadow palettes… I realise that actually only brunettes might look OK with these reddish tones but for blondes if we go for warm tones they need to be softer, like coral 🪸 or brown bit reds would make you look ill. Thanks for the review! Have you tried the new sequin liquid lipstick? I heard that they are dry… I actually stopped buying for the sake of buying a ‘new’ or ‘limited ’ edition items - I think they are lovely in terms of presentation but actually the colour stories are similar and definitely something we already have! Thanks again for the review ❤❤
I am so IN LOVE with the silver palette! 😭 The gold one is pretty too but I love the color story in the silver one. It’s the deep mauve and silver for me. The highlight is pretty too but I am disappointed too that there is not a deeper highlight for deeper skin tones. Thank you for the review! 🥰🥰🥰
Wow! Thank you for getting this review up so fast!! I ordered the cool toned palette and was thinking about getting the other one but your demo saved me getting it. I have too many palettes like that warm color story. The luminizer also is a skip now since I got the celestial face palette and it didn’t look unique enough to justify getting it. Great video and thank you for your honest opinion and advice. Happy Friday!! 😊💕🫶🏻
Thank you for the review! The Soir de Bal palette is very pretty. The other palette a definite pass. I prefer the Hermes ombré Mordorees’ palette for a much more warm and richer burgundy look. The luminizer is pretty and the packaging is beautiful and festive. Have a great day!
Thank you for showing these palettes. They are not going to come home with me - too red, too blah. I saw them on the Dior website, and was disappointed. I love the Backstage palettes, and have the Silver and Smoky ones (and a green/khaki one that is beautiful) and both Highlighter ones - Love those!. They allow me to create beautiful looks. I appreciate your detailed reviews and swatching, because sometimes what looks blah is really wow- like Lancome had a chromatic green in their Holiday palette about 5 years ago that seems meh, but was really WOW.
Thank you for your review, Sofia. I really love the burgundy eyeshadow on you! 😍I believe the Dior eyeshadow palette looks much more elegant than the Charlotte Tilbury holiday palette.
Thank you for the review! I couldn’t resist those palettes and ordered them both this morning. I forgot about the highlighters though! I might have to go back for one. ❤❤❤
Really enjoyed this review! Thank You Sofia! Both palettes look amazing on you, although I prefer the second one. They are not for me as I need something way more neutral and straight forward. However you sold me on highlighter! Will wait for it to get to Canada now 😊
Thank you, Sofia! I have the smoky essential but not the silver essential. After you review, I am interested in this year's backstage Celestial Purple and the Soir de Bal. What do you think between the backstage Celestial Purple and Soir de Bal?
The backstage palettes are better if you want to create a larger range of looks. But if you tend to go into the same shades all the time I recommend the smaller palettes. These holiday palettes have a more shimmery application
Thanks Sofia! I was most interested in the luminizers! I love the 2 I have, which are Golden Glow, and Rosewood Glow. Trying to decide which one would be the better option. I think I will go for the Coral one also. ❤
Hi Sofia! Thank you for investing in these 3 new items from Dior’s holiday collection. I like the shades in the Soir de bal quint - and that’s the one that gives me FOMO because many of Dior’s LE collections never make it to Canada. I am crossing my fingers that the Backstage celestial palette makes it to Sephora Canada because that is definitely on my wish list. The holiday highlighter is a bit too warm for my skin tone so it’s a pass. I appreciate your demo and comparison with other shades. Great review as usual. Thank you.
I LOVE that Dior holiday palette! I am not a fan of most palettes but I would use all those shades. That being said, I am not going to pay $71 for 5 shades when I can pay $69 for 18 shades in a Natasha Danona palette, even if I don't use some of the shades, I'm still going to use most of them.
The Soir de Bal palette is really pretty. I can see using this one often. It would be nice to have one matte. Golden Masquerade is an easy pass. I love the quality of Dior makeup much better than CT and even better than Chanel.
I always enjoy peeking at your brushes also when you do your makeup. Did I spy some bishydo lacquered handle? Or something equally beautiful in the shader brushes. I feel I suit reds and burgundies and warm purples . Still I know what you feel with that salmony color. I had it in a chanel purple quad a couple years ago and had to use it as blush 😂. But however I have guerlain exotic orchid and has a lovey baked formula, from the original guerlain ombres g launch and besides a gold and a burgundy you have a peachy light brown and a darker brown. It's a very balanced quad and the formula is impeccable . I love dior but the guerlain shadow is generally miles above in terms of quality. Even as a makeup lover , I can't justify tons of burgundies 😅. Great review.
Thanks for the early preview of the new collection🤩 Are the pink and taupe colors from Soir de Bar similar to the Chanel single shadows Brun Talpa and Blanc Perle?
Thank you for the review. I think that I will get the Warm Essentials, rather than Golden Masquerade. I appreciated the comparison. Just one question, though, how does the 10 pan Mitzah palette compare, minus the gold shade?
I saved up money for a few months to buy a ZP, but it got scratched on the third day. I cried so much, and then my boyfriend bought me a bag from luxrul for me to carry alternately. Anyway, there are so many bags on the street, so as long as others can't see it, I think it's fine. The thought is there.
Wow the highlighter is stunning!!! Love the packaging😍😍😍😍Are you going to get any of the Dior holiday lipsticks in the golden casing?? I would love to hear your thoughts on 374 Royal Coral💋💋💞
Sah de Bal is pretty looks great on you . I was going to get that one and a highlight but their wasn't any swatches and that drives me crazy because I want to see the shades im buying and if the highlight is glittery or smooth so I waited for a review instead of jumping.
I love the packaging of the highlighter but I already have Peachlight and a Champaign color highlighters from Tom Ford. I am debating on the darker Quint bc I am interested in the spring Chanel and the colors look similar and I am wondering if I should wait for Chanel.
This is really a beautiful collection. I was just looking at this on the Dior website, and then your video popped up! The Soir de Bal eyeshadow palette is much more unique than the other one, and it’s stunning on your eyes. I also love the Corail highlighter. I’m wondering how the Soir de Bal palette compares to the new Tom Ford Metallic Mauve palette.
Today finally I get my hands on the 04 golden glow it was always sold out! also on the Europe Dior website the new highlighters are not available jet why Dior why 😭😂o bought today the new limited edition gucci blushes can’t wait for that ❤
The cooler toned shadows look so beautiful on you, but I agree, it would be *perfect* if the purply shade was a matte - why can’t they make it perfect?! 😅 the highlighter packaging is gorgeous but it looked a bit dark on some other UA-camrs I’ve seen, so I think it would be too much of a shadow on me … though it looks a bit cool toned, which is better for me personally … I just can’t tell - limited highlighter or bronzer shades never work great for me plus … do I need more of these? Hypothetical question of course 😊- packaging makes me want ❤
I knew it, somehow I didn’t like the highlighter 001 because it is just too normal. They should not have included it for the holiday… Instead I chose 002 even though I don’t usually like coral tone… anyway I like it!!
I struggled so with the raspberry shade in the bal de soir palette. Absolutely no pigment on my eye at all!!! Not even with a finger swatch. The other 4 shades are great but it was the raspberry shade that drew me in…. I’ll give it 1 more try though. That coral luminizer is gorgeous but unfortunately sold out on the Dior Canada site…
It’s a shame that you didn’t review any of the lip products.This holiday collection from Dior isn’t inspiring however I’ll pick up one of the eyeshadow pallets and a lipstick. I’ll be skipping the entire Chanel holiday collection. I feel that the past a couple of years have been disastrous from a makeup point of view. I’ve not picked up any of the releases this year( spring , summer or a Halloween one). The colour stories and the overall quality of the products are not what Chanel is about.A luxury brand without luxury feel.
I'm gonna have to disagree with you on this one! I think you look fab in the warm palette and the cool palette is just ok. I hope they come to other retailers soon as UPS just sent mine back as I wasn't here to sign for it! Who requires a signature for an eyeshadow? Sigh.
@@SofiaSeesBeauty well, if you watch the whole video it is clear which palette is really meant but, for example, I was interested only in Soir de Bal, especially in comparisons, and watched only this part, and the subs were really misleading, as English is foreign language for me and I don't always understand exactly what bloggers are saying
It’s interesting. I got the champagne luminizer and it does not look champagne. It looks a lot more like the coral one. Even though the packaging is correct to me it doesn’t match with the picture for the champagne one and it swatches with a coral undertone. 🤷♀️
Why every new eyeshadow palette is build around red tones? Very few people actually look good with red eyeshadow, it emphasises red veins in eyes and makes you look sick 😬😬😬
To be honest, I have nothing against fakes, I know some people do just that. A friend introduced me to the luxrul some time ago. It is no exaggeration to say that this is the most perfect bag I have ever seen.

Am I the only one disappointed by all the luxury holiday makeup this year?
Definitely not their best work
Nothing has interested me….hope something comes out that sparked my lil eye
I got a bit wrapped up in the packaging of Westman atelier - it’s silly, but that pretty green … and new colors too - I like it - and I am hoping the guerlain eyeshadows are a nice formula - packaging pretty, but pink eyeshadows again … no so happy there - or with gold and silver everywhere else - so I agree so far 😅
I think the Westman Atelier sets are nice. And surprisingly well-priced. But the one set is already sold out. I’m just waiting for Black Friday and the Sephora sale to stock up on my everyday favorites and be done.
Have you seen the lancome one? Its actually surprisingly pretty but idk which formula it is. They used to have a more classic formula and they changed it to some powder dusty silky mess but it looked a lot better this time but ive never felt/tried out this holiday collections stuff
Hey Sofia, I swatched in store the silver/pink/purple eye shadow in store as I own a lot of Dior eyeshadows and I wanted to point out to others that if you already have the Dior d-floral, you have pretty much all the colours from this holiday pallete except for the purple shades which you either can get from another pallet like chanel cool or if you want even more pruple, from Byredo purple echo. Plus that shades of purple, I feel like it could be a hit or miss on some undertones. I wear the same shades of foundations as you, but the pool orange on me and with blue eyes, wrong purple can look like a back eye on me. Also, a little tip for your mature subscribers, which is a curtasy of Natasha Denona, if your eyelid skin moves as you blend your lux shadows and it moves skin with your ultra soft brushes, tap in the shadow instead of windshield motion that all content creator advocates for. This tip was a game changes for my 48 year old loose skin on eyes but you never ever see anyone mention it. Wait 20 years or so and you will understand what I mean😊❤ all the best.
I haven't bought a Dior Quint since the reformulations. It was this Holiday Collection that excited me to delve back in to try them once again. I have only just recieved them, so haven't had the time to admire the stunning embossing before I dive in. From what I've seen from various videos, I'm pleased with how pigmented the shades are in the Quints, yet find none of the pictures do the shades justice, as they are far more beautiful. I had already purchased the Backstage Eye Palette, the L/E Addict Lip Case and the Addict Lipstick in the plum shade, both nail polishes plus the heavenly Christmas Candle. I also purchased both of the Stylo Eye Pencils in Ruby and Amethyst which go beautifully with both Quints and definitely something to think about if buying these Quints. Chanel also came out with two Liquid Eye-Liners in very similar colours which can also be used with these Quints. I'm still tempted to buy the Peach Luminiser, yet have so many already, which is why I passed on the Backstage Face Palette, but it's so beautiful that I'm still on the fence. Normally, I'm not that interested in Holiday Collections, yet quite a number of products have been released that have peaked my interest this year. Although, not a Holiday release, Givenchy have a Couture Collection of Perfecto Lipsticks, Perfecto Liquid Balms and a Pressed Powder in a lovely packaging containing rose gold hearts. How could I resist? We're still waiting for their Holiday Collection, which I intend on buying the Eye Palette plus both Lipsticks. I would dearly love the Prada Eye Palette and the Byredo Quint, but Prada Beauty do not sell to Australia and Byredo is extremely hard to get hold of. I'm wondering if anyone has spied the Chanel Quads that were supposed to be part of an earlier Collection with the pans in the shape of camilias, although I haven't seen anyone with a video of these.🤷🏼♀️ I must admit that Dior really nailed it with their products and presentation this year, a step in the right direction. Thank you Sofia for this review.🇦🇺💖👩🏼🎨
I like the peachy palette a lot. I don't think it looks anything like pink eye 😅colours like this will make green eyes glow 😊

Loved the second eyeshadow pallet and the highlighter. It ALL looks good on you, Sofia!
Thank you so much!!
Thank you for the review! The Soir de Bal palette is very pretty. The other palette is a definite pass. I prefer the Hermes ombré Mordorees’ palette for a much more warm and richer burgundy look.
The luminizer is pretty and the packaging is beautiful and festive. Have a great day!

I got the Addict case this year!!!! Yay!!!! lol!!! I liked last years better tho 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍 do love the gold packaging on the eyeshadows!
Soir de Bal all the way. I wish they'd bring back the 'Petal Shine' quint - my all time favorite!
Soir de bal and the Highlighter are soo beautiful on you....❤
Oh thank you!
@@SofiaSeesBeauty you are very welcome, beautiful friend!Have a great weekend!😘
Gorgeous absolutely!!!
Love the Soir De Bah on your eyes.
Oh thank you!
Stoping my hole Friday to watch this!!!!
haha YAY!!
Hooray! Was waiting on a review of these eyeshadow quints. Got the cooler one since I’m a bright winter palette.
I´m so ready for holiday season! This collection is supes stunning ❤❤❤
I can’t watch this till later but this looks amazing on you thank you for the video, a definite yes to the eyeshadow!!
Definitely the cool one, I generally can’t understand why on earth they put so much reds in eye shadow palettes… I realise that actually only brunettes might look OK with these reddish tones but for blondes if we go for warm tones they need to be softer, like coral 🪸 or brown bit reds would make you look ill.

Have you tried the new sequin liquid lipstick? I heard that they are dry…
I actually stopped buying for the sake of buying a ‘new’ or ‘limited ’ edition items - I think they are lovely in terms of presentation but actually the colour stories are similar and definitely something we already have! Thanks again for the review ❤❤
Hi Sofia, would you recommend 863 or the Dior Backstage 004? Enjoy watching your review!
The packaging is gorgeous. I’m passing on this collection but enjoy your review. Thank you
I love the way these colors look on your eyes just the way you did them
Why thank you!
I am so IN LOVE with the silver palette! 😭 The gold one is pretty too but I love the color story in the silver one. It’s the deep mauve and silver for me. The highlight is pretty too but I am disappointed too that there is not a deeper highlight for deeper skin tones. Thank you for the review! 🥰🥰🥰
Wow! Thank you for getting this review up so fast!! I ordered the cool toned palette and was thinking about getting the other one but your demo saved me getting it.

Yes good recommendation. I love that Hemes one
I picked up the same highlighter, passed on the two quints because I got the backstage holiday eyeshadow palette. You do these videos really well!
Love the packaging of the highlighter
Thank you for showing these palettes. They are not going to come home with me - too red, too blah. I saw them on the Dior website, and was disappointed.

It's ok. I love packaging for the highlighter. 🎉
So glad I came in early. Always appreciate your thoughts and in-depth reviews ❤️
Glad you like them!
@@SofiaSeesBeauty Thank you for all your hard work. it is so helpful in deciding what to get out of the plethora of makeup 😆💓
Thank you for your review, Sofia. I really love the burgundy eyeshadow on you! 😍I believe the Dior eyeshadow palette looks much more elegant than the Charlotte Tilbury holiday palette.
I agree!
Thank you for the review! I couldn’t resist those palettes and ordered them both this morning. I forgot about the highlighters though! I might have to go back for one. ❤❤❤

Thank you, Sofia! I have the smoky essential but not the silver essential. After you review, I am interested in this year's backstage Celestial Purple and the Soir de Bal. What do you think between the backstage Celestial Purple and Soir de Bal?
The backstage palettes are better if you want to create a larger range of looks. But if you tend to go into the same shades all the time I recommend the smaller palettes. These holiday palettes have a more shimmery application
Beautiful collection, thank you for your review ❤
My pleasure 😊
I love gold everything so I am strongly fighting myself on whether or not i will get this 😅 the color stories are so ME too.
Thanks Sofia! I was most interested in the luminizers! I love the 2 I have, which are Golden Glow, and Rosewood Glow. Trying to decide which one would be the better option. I think I will go for the Coral one also. ❤
Hi Sofia! Thank you for investing in these 3 new items from Dior’s holiday collection. I like the shades in the Soir de bal quint - and that’s the one that gives me FOMO because many of Dior’s LE collections never make it to Canada. I am crossing my fingers that the Backstage celestial palette makes it to Sephora Canada because that is definitely on my wish list. The holiday highlighter is a bit too warm for my skin tone so it’s a pass. I appreciate your demo and comparison with other shades. Great review as usual. Thank you.
You're welcome!
The lipsticks from this collection are about the only pinks I would wear but I am impressed with the packaging.
Hi Sofia, thank you for the reviews!
I LOVE that Dior holiday palette! I am not a fan of most palettes but I would use all those shades. That being said, I am not going to pay $71 for 5 shades when I can pay $69 for 18 shades in a Natasha Danona palette, even if I don't use some of the shades, I'm still going to use most of them.
Thank you for reviewing these.
The Soir de Bal palette is really pretty. I can see using this one often. It would be nice to have one matte. Golden Masquerade is an easy pass. I love the quality of Dior makeup much better than CT and even better than Chanel.
I always enjoy peeking at your brushes also when you do your makeup. Did I spy some bishydo lacquered handle? Or something equally beautiful in the shader brushes.
I feel I suit reds and burgundies and warm purples . Still I know what you feel with that salmony color. I had it in a chanel purple quad a couple years ago and had to use it as blush 😂. But however I have guerlain exotic orchid and has a lovey baked formula, from the original guerlain ombres g launch and besides a gold and a burgundy you have a peachy light brown and a darker brown. It's a very balanced quad and the formula is impeccable . I love dior but the guerlain shadow is generally miles above in terms of quality. Even as a makeup lover , I can't justify tons of burgundies 😅. Great review.
Thanks for the early preview of the new collection🤩 Are the pink and taupe colors from Soir de Bar similar to the Chanel single shadows Brun Talpa and Blanc Perle?
Yup the colors are very dupable
@@SofiaSeesBeauty Thank you, Sofia🌸
Thank you for the review. I think that I will get the Warm Essentials, rather than Golden Masquerade. I appreciated the comparison. Just one question, though, how does the 10 pan Mitzah palette compare, minus the gold shade?
The super pink one? it's a completely different color story
I saved up money for a few months to buy a ZP, but it got scratched on the third day. I cried so much, and then my boyfriend bought me a bag from luxrul for me to carry alternately. Anyway, there are so many bags on the street, so as long as others can't see it, I think it's fine. The thought is there.
Wow the highlighter is stunning!!! Love the packaging😍😍😍😍Are you going to get any of the Dior holiday lipsticks in the golden casing?? I would love to hear your thoughts on 374 Royal Coral💋💋💞
Nope! I am overwhelmed with lipsticks. Their formulas are not as good as the other luxury brands
Hey Sofia.... What earrings are you wearing in this video? So cute!
Sah de Bal is pretty looks great on you . I was going to get that one and a highlight but their wasn't any swatches and that drives me crazy because I want to see the shades im buying and if the highlight is glittery or smooth so I waited for a review instead of jumping.
I love the packaging of the highlighter but I already have Peachlight and a Champaign color highlighters from Tom Ford. I am debating on the darker Quint bc I am interested in the spring Chanel and the colors look similar and I am wondering if I should wait for Chanel.
Love your videos can you please review the Dior Glitter Lipsticks? Have you tried them do you like them?
I hate them. That's why I didn't get them :)
This is really a beautiful collection. I was just looking at this on the Dior website, and then your video popped up! The Soir de Bal eyeshadow palette is much more unique than the other one, and it’s stunning on your eyes. I also love the Corail highlighter. I’m wondering how the Soir de Bal palette compares to the new Tom Ford Metallic Mauve palette.
I'm not a fan of the Tom Ford Palette. It's all mauve and too glittery and dry
Today finally I get my hands on the 04 golden glow it was always sold out! also on the Europe Dior website the new highlighters are not available jet why Dior why 😭😂o bought today the new limited edition gucci blushes can’t wait for that ❤
En el momento en que vi el bolso *yutulu*, supe que tenía que tenerlo
The cooler toned shadows look so beautiful on you, but I agree, it would be *perfect* if the purply shade was a matte - why can’t they make it perfect?! 😅 the highlighter packaging is gorgeous but it looked a bit dark on some other UA-camrs I’ve seen, so I think it would be too much of a shadow on me … though it looks a bit cool toned, which is better for me personally … I just can’t tell - limited highlighter or bronzer shades never work great for me plus … do I need more of these? Hypothetical question of course 😊- packaging makes me want ❤
I knew it, somehow I didn’t like the highlighter 001 because it is just too normal. They should not have included it for the holiday…
Instead I chose 002 even though I don’t usually like coral tone… anyway I like it!!
I struggled so with the raspberry shade in the bal de soir palette. Absolutely no pigment on my eye at all!!! Not even with a finger swatch. The other 4 shades are great but it was the raspberry shade that drew me in…. I’ll give it 1 more try though. That coral luminizer is gorgeous but unfortunately sold out on the Dior Canada site…
I don t like reds on my eyes ! This year, it s red everywhere😅😅😅😅
Yeah we could definitely do with less reds :)
@@SofiaSeesBeauty Yes!😆😆😁
Omg yes! Enough already with all the red and burgundy eye shadows. Who is wearing them?
The eyeshadow quints only have a 6-month shelf life!😱😱😱
😮
Watching 👀 😊late sorry Sofia 😞
That luminizer will be haunting my dreams until I get it!
same girl, same! 😅
Is the coraile luminizer look like the highlight in dragon palette??
Ciao grazie per questo video molto bello e interessante .Acquisterai i Rouge laque? Un abbraccio❤
I am not getting any of the lip products
How does it compare to plum tulle palette
It’s a shame that you didn’t review any of the lip products.This holiday collection from Dior isn’t inspiring however I’ll pick up one of the eyeshadow pallets and a lipstick. I’ll be skipping the entire Chanel holiday collection. I feel that the past a couple of years have been disastrous from a makeup point of view. I’ve not picked up any of the releases this year( spring , summer or a Halloween one). The colour stories and the overall quality of the products are not what Chanel is about.A luxury brand without luxury feel.
I tried those glitter lip products last year in my review and I hated them.
@@SofiaSeesBeauty i see, but there are other lip products available in this collection .
💖💖💖
I'm gonna have to disagree with you on this one! I think you look fab in the warm palette and the cool palette is just ok. I hope they come to other retailers soon as UPS just sent mine back as I wasn't here to sign for it! Who requires a signature for an eyeshadow? Sigh.
When you show comparison swatches the subs say Golden Maskerade even when it should be Soir de Bal, please, correct
Thanks for the feedback but it seems like you figured it out 😉
@@SofiaSeesBeauty well, if you watch the whole video it is clear which palette is really meant but, for example, I was interested only in Soir de Bal, especially in comparisons, and watched only this part, and the subs were really misleading, as English is foreign language for me and I don't always understand exactly what bloggers are saying
It’s interesting. I got the champagne luminizer and it does not look champagne. It looks a lot more like the coral one. Even though the packaging is correct to me it doesn’t match with the picture for the champagne one and it swatches with a coral undertone. 🤷♀️
I would check with them Michelle because this happened to me one year where they mis-packaged a ton of the luminizers and I was also confused
Would love to see lip products from this limited collection 🙏🏼
Sorry I wont be getting those! I made the mistake of getting the glittery lip products last year...
Ah, ok, I totally understand that 😊
I'm not here for the red. As soon as brands get away from red it's back. Not for me either!
Why every new eyeshadow palette is build around red tones? Very few people actually look good with red eyeshadow, it emphasises red veins in eyes and makes you look sick 😬😬😬
It's because red is a very big color on the runways this year
can you review indi brands too?
No because I don't have a specialty in that area and it caters to a different audience than who is subscribed to me here on UA-cam
To be honest, I have nothing against fakes, I know some people do just that. A friend introduced me to the luxrul some time ago. It is no exaggeration to say that this is the most perfect bag I have ever seen.
Looks great on you; but, too red for me❤
