DIOR



I'm sure many of you own this product already, and for the longest time this item was on my wish list. When Sephora had their 20% off Friends and Family sale, I finally went ahead and picked it up.
Dior's Amber Diamond is such an amazing highlighting powder. It leaves the most beautiful, soft, and glowing sheen on the cheekbones or wherever it is applied. It's no wonder that so many people rave about this product, because it is every bit as wonderful, as people say it is.

The packaging is absolutely gorgeous, as Dior packaging always is.

Comes in a really cute velvet pouch with the Christian Dior initials on it. The overall packaging is a plus, especially the very convienent mirror inside. However, the product inside is the reason for purchasing.

DIORSKIN-POUDRE SHIMMER
Ultra Shimmering All Over Face Powder Description:
 
As sheer and shimmering as silk, the Diorskin Shimmer Star brightens the complexion with thousands of sparkles to a sea of finely milled shimmer. What is the secret of these unique reflections? Just the right amount of pearlescent particles and pigments designed to give the skin a beautiful sheen. The result: in just one step, your face radiates with a delicate halo of light.
This is by far the prettiest highlighting powder that I have ever used or have owned before. It truely does give such a glow to the skin, and for the quality, it's defiantly worth the splurge. It retails for $44, which is alot of money, however, if your looking to splurge on one beauty item, I would defiantly recommend this one. I hope you enjoyed reading, if you own any other Dior products that you are loving, please share them in the comment section below. Thankyou.

SONIA KASHUK

I own many amazing brushes, but I'm always on the look out for more. I have never tried any of Sonia Kashuk's makeup brushes before, but have always heard great reviews about them. I've been looking for a really great fluffy brush for applying powders and highlighters with, and I think i've found a wonderful one. It's called a "Small multipurpose powder brush" and it is amazing for applying powder under the eye. It's very universal, can be used for under the eye, on the lid for blending, or for precise areas such as highlighting the cheekbones. It really is so easy to use just one brush for different areas of the face, it really does save time. I think if your looking for a multipurpose brush, defiantly check this one out.
It's super soft, distributes the powder precisely in the areas you need it to, and it's extremely great for blending.
Overall, this is an outstanding makeup brush. It retails for $10, and I purchased mine at my local SuperTarget. I hope you enjoyed reading this quick & short brush review. Have you found any multipurpose brush, must-haves? Please share them in the comment section below. Thankyou.
