Diorskin Nude Natural Glow Hydrating Makeup SPF 10

i seriously don't have enough words for this gorgeous foundation, its flawless skin in a bottle. You need a little it really goes a long way! A bit pricey but mine lasts forever. This isn't a daily foundation, I only wear it on nights out, it does last about 6-7 hours without primer, and it has great coverage... It comes out beautiful in pictures as well.

I recently bought this foundation after deciding I wanted something different than the MAC Studio Sculpt. I went to the counter and a great makeup artist from Dior helped me match the tone, put it on me (along with some eyeshadow). I was impressed. It felt really smooth, matched my skin VERY well, and made my skin look really even. I didn't even wear any concealer with it and I felt really confident. I bought it and wore it for the rest of the day.

The price? Steep for a foundation. I bought it for $46 US, but honestly I will buy it again. That's the only reason why I docked a point. I find it really easy to apply with my MAC 190 brush, and it stays all day. I use a primer before I put it on and I'm ready to go for the rest of the day. My face doesn't feel dry and it doesn't cake up on me at all.

I would certainly recommend it to anyone who had dry to normal skin!

Heh. What a long, fancy name for a foundation! Seriously. But, aside from the long ass name being, well, long, this foundation is absolutely amazing. Here’s why.

Firstly, i’m going to explain the packaging – totally gorgeous, and so luxurious looking. The packaging alone, intimidates me, but once you get over that initial trepidation, you’re good to go.

It has a silver pump, which preserves the product application more – very wise choice, Dior! Now, in all honesty, I have never watched or read a review on any Christian Dior products in my life, let alone, consider buying and using a foundation by Dior. I simply bought this of my own accord, discovering this little beauty all on my own. In a sense, I wanted to try something “High-end” for a change, to compare it to some of the equally as good “Drugstore” products I own, in particular, foundation.

So, the verdict? After using this for nearly 6 weeks, I can honestly say that this product is definitely worth the money. Because, yes, it’s quite pricey (I purchased this for $51.00 AU – yes, I know, I know, seriously expensive), and I admit, I took a risk. But for me, the selling factor was the key words of “nude”, “hydrating” and “SPF 10″, which justified in my mind, spending that amount of cash.

So my colour is Medium Beige 030, which I found, matched my skin tone quite well. I have dry skin, and this is a liquid foundation that contains 40% water – very good for my type of skin. My skin feels velvety and soft after applying it, and I can honestly say my skin feels dewy and hydrated. Now, the thing about the foundation is that the consistency is thin, and looks quite sheer, so for that instance, it’s great as a concealer. However, if you’re after full coverage, this is definitely build-able, and also, it blends in quite well with your skin, hence, the “nude” term applied to the name.

And one of the best things is that, it evens out your complexion, which leaves your skin looking natural, like you haven’t applied any makeup, which is exactly what you want out of a foundation. Throw in SPF 10 for extra protection, and a long lasting concoction, and you have a foundation that’s the real deal.

The only gripe I have about this, is in all honesty, the price. I am fortunate that this foundation has worked well with my skin, however, if I were to repurchase, i’d probably think long and hard about it. The Rimmel London Match Perfection Foundation I reviewed not so long ago, is a similar product to the Diorskin – similar consistency, and similar attributes, and it works just as well as Diorskin.

Despite its price, the fact remains, this is an amazing foundation, and definitely worth trying if you’re wanting to experiment with high-end makeup.

I love this foundation, it blends in nice, and it gives your face that nice healthy glow. And the greatest thing is, it looks completely natural! But beware, it is quite expensive and also if you over-apply in some areas, it sometimes will end up looking a bit cakey.
