@Ericasmommy That will be a sure way to get it. Make sure you check out if there are any online offers!

@greeneyedgirl107 I was just thinking I will be adding this to my cart for the sale. I wonder the same thing 🤔... This palette is stunning.

[greeneyedgirl107]

@Mellmars1185 the price is definitely high.  I remember when eye palettes were $49.

[Mellmars1185]

@greeneyedgirl107 It definitely is high. Maybe this is my sign to wait for the sale.

Ok, what is your gateway LIP drug to Dior?😍

I still haven't tried  DIOR Rosy Glow Blush 006 Berry since I got sick before I could, and want to check out their lip products.

[Sunnysmom]

I love their blush too @Buootiful and their refillable lips! Their matte formula is so comfy imo. 

DIOR Rouge Dior Refillable Lipstick 964 Ambitious is one of my favorite go-tos! 

[CorgiMommy]

That blush is fabulous @Buootiful 

[faeriegirl]

I love the Dior blushes @Buootiful !

My lip go-to is the Dior Lip Glow in Raspberry.  Just enoigh color snd shine for anything, even if I'm bare faced.  If you need a little more color, you can't go wrong with Dior Lip Maximizer either.

@Buootiful  You really can’t go wrong with a DIOR Dior Addict Shine Lipstick. Only problem is, Sephora doesn’t sell them as refill-only; you have to pay for the refill + case. But if you don’t have one of these lipsticks yet, that’s not a bad thing. 🙂 You might wanna check YouTube or lip swatch photos to see how each shade really looks. Some of Dior’s model photos are a bit off, color wise, unless they’ve recently updated ‘em all. Or you know, visit a Sephora store and swatch testers. 

I do also like DIOR Rouge Dior Refillable Lipstick (I might like the satins a touch more than the mattes for lip comfort). But I still call the Dior Addict Shine lipsticks the true Dior lip gateway drug.

@Buootiful  These look beautiful! 😍
