Dior has several new beauty launches this month and I’ve loved them so far! I got a new one Brush soft filter forever ($49 each, now Dior and Nordstrom) From my local Dior Beauty Boutique and really love the ceremony. These are soft matte liquid blush with a whipped texture. They take a little more extra work and blend out, but when blended with a brush or finger, it gives a very smooth airbrush look.
Liquid blush tends to get darker on my skin, so I decided to pick up a bright neutral shade. I’m happy to report that these do not oxidize or darken. It stays true to the colour, but when blended it gives the skin a very soft look. You can layer more pigments and colors without looking or feeling heavy.
The texture is very soft and almost like a mousse formula. These are dotted with sponge tip applicators across the skin. I love to blend Hourglass Ambient Soft Glow Foundation Brush, No 15 brushes and Fenty Brush 125 – But you can really use any red brush you own in your stash.
The lasting power is pretty good. They look fresh for hours without sprouting from the skin. I have not placed them in a full outdoor humidity test for a long time so they are too hot for long periods of time to go outside (unless you are in the shade). However, I am really pleased with the performance as it worked remarkably well in a few hours with outdoor dinner.
I saw them all in store except one (they had missed the tester). They are very pigmented and opaque, but I love how they blend into the skin.
I picked up six shades and I think the shade range is really good. They have neutral and bold shades of different colours. I’m still wearing it Dior Forever Perfect Foundation Stick 3n.

Overall I’m really happy with these splurges. I’m not usually a blushing fan of matte blush or liquids, but I love these. I think my top three favorites are petals, blooms and orchids.
