Dior’s New Autumn collection 2018 💄

Last weekend I went into Debenhams, more specifically the Dior counter to see my lovely friend who works there.

She wanted to show me, and try out, some of the amazing products from Dior’s latest Autumn collection.

The collection boasts a wide range of products from lipsticks with a new semi matte formula, highlighters, eye shadow and blushers.

They are all so beautiful and I loved trying them out.

So, let’s take a look at the collection…

The collections are the ‘Dior An Diable’ & The ‘DiorRouge Ultra Rouge’

The An Diable collection includes some eye shadow palettes and some beautiful highlighters.

The Ultra Rouge collection is permenant and includes their new Semi matte lipsticks that last for 12 hours!! Within the lipstick collection they have four reds so you can choose your perfect shade. Who doesn’t love a red lip!

It also includes nail varnishes, the colours have been selected to compliment the other products in the range, this is a brilliant idea.

Everything in these collections is Limited edition except for the blushers and highlighters.

So, what products did I try out?

  • The Blusher is no 219 in the shade Rose Montaigne Shimmer.

This is a lovely kinky toned blush with a lovely shimmer running through it. This added a lovely rosy flush to my cheeks.

  • Highlighter Shade no 02.

This is a beautiful highlighter and it is SO pigmented. It gives you a lovely irredescent glow and is just so pretty.

Like the blushers these are the perfect size for popping into your handbag on the go, I’m not a fan of bulky packaging.

  • Ultra Rouge Lipstick in the shade Rouge 485.

This lipstick was a pretty pink tone. As I said it is semi matte but wasn’t at all tacky and it really did last on my lips.

I also love the lipstick packaging, it looks so sleek.

  • Eyeshadow palette in the shade 837 Devilish.

This eye shadow palette is so pretty. I love the range of colours and it has some perfect Autumn shades for day and night time looks.

Those goldy tones and the rosey, burgundy are just beautiful.

The colour I wore was the pretty and subtle pink shade in the top corner.

Again, a super handy size!

I had so much fun trying all these products out and I will be going back in to Debenhams to purchase a few myself!

The collection is well worth checking out, especially for all you make up and beauty lovers out there!

It’s very reasonably priced for such good quality and high end make up.

Until next time,

Roseanne 🙂

Day 7 of my advent calendar for Blogmas 🎄

For day 7 of Blogmas I’m going to show you what I got today in my beauty advent and how it looks on.

I’ve used a few of the products from my calendar for my make up today so I thought it would be a good opportunity to show you.

So what did I get today…

This lovely browny toned blusher. This is really lovely & once again a shade of blusher I dont have! I usually go for pinky blushers so this is great. 

It’s got a lovely light shimmer running through it and I just think it’s really cool because it looks a bit like a planet 😁

To apply this I used my face make up brush that I got yesterday in my advent calendar…

These brushes are really cute with the ombre bristles & rose gold detail.

Some other products I used are:

  • Body shop BB cream shade 2
  • Collection lasting perfection concealor shade ‘Cool medium’
  • Bourjois Radiance reveal concealor shade ‘Ivory’
  • Revolution strobing balm (also from my beauty advent see Blogmas day 4 )
  • Mac matte lipstick in shade ‘Whirl’ (my sister might recognise this hehe)

I love this blusher/lipstick combo & the strobing balm is awesome. I used it dry and the colour & highlight is awesome 🌟

What beauty advent calendars have you guys got?  What’s your favourite product that you’ve got so far?

    • Buffing Brush
    • Base Shadow Brush 
    • Angled Highlighter Brush 
    • Contour Brush 

      The Buffing Brush is really good for blending your make up and for the finishing touch. When I’ve done my contouring with bronzer, applied blusher and highlighter I like to blend using this Brush.  

      The Base Shadow Brush is great for applying both creme and powder eyeshadow and is a really nice shape.

      The Angled Highlighter Brush is amazing for applying highlighter! I love this one so much. The angled brush sweeps across the cheek bones really nicely and adds a lovely subtle light to your face.  

      The Contour Brush is the perfect shape and size for applying both creme or powder. This is perfect for defining my cheekbones.

      Today’s make up look 💄

      I thought I would share today’s make up look! It’s quite a low key look, focusing on the eyes 👀

      I apologise if the pictures aren’t great but I’m in the process of getting a new phone 🙂

      Disclaimer: I don’t claim to be good at applying make up, this is still relatively new to me but I’m really enjoying it and I love applying it all and trying  out different looks! 

      I’ll list the products I used for each part of the look.
      So here it is…

      So, I started off by moisturising using my Olay Beauty Fluid. I apply this all over the face and rub it in.

      Next up I applied my illuminator. I used Sleek Make ups Barekissed illuninator in the shade ‘Casablanca’. I applied this using a beauty blender.

      It gives my skin a lovely glow.

      Next up I applied my foundation layer, for a lighter finish today I used my BB cream. The BB cream I used is The body shop All-in-one BB cream Shade no 2.

      After foundation I applied Concealer. I applied this under my eyes to hide any dark circles and on any spots or blemishes. I used a beauty blender to apply both my BB cream & Concealor.

      The concealer I used was Collections lasting perfection concealor in shade no 2 ‘Cool medium’.

      After concealor I did my blusher & highlighter 👑

      I used Bourjois Paris blusher in shade 74 ‘Rose Ambre’. The highlighter I used is by Revolution and is one of their baked highlighters.

      Eyes!

      I used a mix of palettes for this, I’ll pop a list below.

      Before applying eyeshadow I use a primer, I would definatly recommend this as it makes the eyeshadow apply better & last longer. The primer I used was by Revolution, Focus & Fix eye primer.

      I used a pale pink for the base, a shimmery pink in the crease, a dark brown/grey tone for the outer corner of the eye, a cream tone for the inner corners and a dark burgundy to add definition at the corners & under the lower lash line.

      Palettes used…

      • Revolutions Redemption palette Iconic 3
      • Maybellines The blushed nudes
      • Barry Ms Super Natural Eyeshadow palette Superdrug exclusive. 

      The Mascara I used is Dior’s ‘Diorshow’ Mascara in black.

      Next up eyebrows…

      I get my eyebrows threaded and tinted so all I do is shape and fill them using my Maybelline brow satin in the shade ‘Medium brown’. I will be featuring this in my next Beauty haul blog but I would definatly recommend giving this product a go.

      Finally, lips 💄 I love liquid lipsticks but this time I went for a lipstick with a matte finish.

      This is a MAC lipstick in shade ‘Pink plaid’. I got this from duty free on my recent holiday & I love this pinky tone. Pinks are defiantly my favourite when it comes to most make up items 🌸🌹

      I used my Revolution Pro fix Oil control Fixing Spray at the end to make the make up last longer.

      Here’s the final look 🙂 

      If you have any questions about the products I used let me know and I’ll try my best to answer them 👍

      Until next time,

      Roseanne 🙂
