New from Dior

JudyL — Sun, 28 Dec 2025 21:27:47 GMT

Received an email from Dior that they have a new "Forever Skin Bronze: Summer In A Stick." The description says:

"Introducing the bronze-in-balm stick that gives new meaning to natural. Available in 6 tan-mimicking shades, the creamy matte formula fuses with the skin for your most radiant, sun-kissed complexion."

I use Dior's powder bronzer and like it a lot. Even though cream products don't last but a minute on me, this has got my attention. If Sephora carries it, I may go to the store and check it out.

@JudyL I use Estée Lauder Bronze Goddess powder and love it but my shade has been back ordered from Macy's. Is the Dior bronzer shimmer or matte? Did you ever use the Estée Lauder one to compare?

@theresa - I have not used the Estee Lauder bronzer so can't give you a comparison. The Dior bronzer that I bought is the one from Sephora. The shades are different on Sephora's website than Dior's website - why I do not know. Anyway, I bought the shade 10 from Sephora. It is not shimmery, it is matte. 10 is the lightest shade Sephora sells but it can be built up a bit. What number it compares to on the Dior website, I'm not sure. The reason I bought the Sephora bronzer is because you get more product - it's bigger than the one shown on the Dior website. Cost a bit more but I felt it was worth it.

@JudyL I've noticed the last few years a lot of makeup is coming in stick form...foundation, blush, eye shadow, bronzer, highlighter, etc. I enjoy the portability and ease of application.

Sometimes I need to set it with powder.

@Shanus - Years ago BareMinerals had a stick foundation that I loved and then they discontinued it. Wish I could find one again that I like as much as that one. Even though cream products don't last on me longer than a hot minute, the BM stick foundation seemed to last not all day but a good amount of time.

Dior Spring collection is absolutely gorgeous if you have not checked it out.

Luckily nothing is calling out to me in this collection.

@monicakm - Just took a look at Dior's collection for Spring and would have thought the pink collection would be right up your alley. What didn't you like about it?

@Tricolor - Just took a look at Dior's Spring collection and thought the pink collection was pretty. The thing that was questionable to me was the sparkly lippies. Not into sparkly on my lips. Did you like the pink or green collection?

@JudyL, I am leaning towards the pinks but I thought that green shade was pretty too. Just not sure if those other colors in that palette would work for me. I have a few of the sparkly shades of Dior lips that came out a few years ago and they are pretty. They are subtle. The other thing is the shades are matte and I prefer shine on my lips.
