must-have summer look

Summer is here, and beside updating our wardrobe for this summer. We need to update our make up too.

To prepare for this summer frenzy, Dior launched a special edition - Dior Beauty Confidential. Like many other brands. But what sets Dior apart is its unique packaging. I am totally in love with it. Dior never fails to amaze me with their superb design palettes, compacts and fragrance bottle. Each time I see them, it just screams to me, and I must have it.

This makeup palette is like an envelope – a bling bling envelope, that is.
It is a blush/face powder and lip gloss combi, which the gloss takes the shape of a postage stamp. How cute.
The powder is engraved with an address: Dior 33 Avenue Montaigne 75008 Paris… which can be read in the mirror reflection.

Two different palettes are available. My fav is “Moon Glow 002”, it’s a white shimmery highlighting face powder with a pinkish lip gloss.


For those who worship the sun, “Sun Illusion 001” will be your best pick. A golden peach sun powder and a darker shade of pink lip gloss. Great for tan skin.
Face powder + gloss is just enough. Remember to keep your eyes bare from color. With this shimmer face powder, it can reflect the sunrays to a healthy glow on your face. Put on black mascara and you are ready to go.
Mascara – checked, rosy cheeks – checked, glossy lips – checked.
Pretty in the simplest form.

For all Dior fans, this is definitely a collector’s item! It's limited edition. For non-fans too.
