Dior Blue Tie Palette: New for Fall 2011

July 19th, 2011 by Karen 18 Comments






Pictures and swatches of the new Dior Blue Tie Palette ($70! — WOW!) for fall 2011, coming soon to Dior.com and available now at Nordstrom stores.

Quick first impressions…

  • The pigments — The blue shadows apply sheer; the shimmery gray and black ones apply with medium pigmentation.
  • Texture — The four shadows feel harder and less buttery to me than the Dior shadows I’ve tried in the past. I’ll be able to tell more after I’ve some time with them.
  • The gloss — A creamy pink, unflavored and unscented. It leans toward the cool side of the spectrum.

What do ya think of the colors? The price isn’t exactly great…

Tabs Needs Your Help

July 18th, 2011 by Karen 39 Comments



Tabs commandeered my empty 15-pan MAC palette and is now insisting that it’s his (typical).

The only color he has so far is Concrete. What else do you think he needs?
