I got a few Dior Holiday launches and quite a few things are still in stock! They also have some really nice gift sets, although this year I focused on the holiday makeup releases. I’ll list where I’ve found things still in stock online at the moment, though you might want to check your stores too. FYI right now Sax it’s 15% off Dior items (and other beauty items too). Here is what I got:
- Forever Couture Luminizer in Or Lumiere ($55) – Saks Fifth Avenue, Nordstrom, Dillard’s, Neiman Marcus
- Diorshow 5 Couleurs eyeshadow palette at 643 Golden Masquerade ($71) – Sax, Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, Ulta Beauty
- Rouge Dior Forever Liquid Sequin Lipstick in 100 Dreams and 323 Dazzle ($49) – select shades still available in Nordstrom, Sax, Dillards, Neiman Marcus
- Dior Vernis at 114 Lumiere ($28.90) – Sax, Macy’s, Dillards
Forever Couture Luminizer
There are two Forever Couture Luminizer Highlighters this holiday. I chose the champagne gold 001 Or Lumiere which still appears to be widely available at many retailers. It’s a soft champagne gold with a complex mix of shimmer, but still applies smoothly on the skin and on me doesn’t emphasize pores or texture. Although I have many other gold highlighters, I was pleasantly surprised by this one. I think it’s worth it, but it’s one of the more misleading items in the holiday launch.

Diorshow 5 Couleurs eyeshadow palette
I chose the warmest pink Diorshow 5 Couleurs eyeshadow palette in 643 Golden Disguise. It’s a holiday shopper and I love it, although if you’re one who can’t wear pink or cranberry tones on your lids, I’d say pass.
The texture is very soft and the pigmentation leans on the sheer to medium side. You can layer for more pigment, but the overall look is still soft. It has a cool rose pink with hints of silver shimmer, a soft ecru-pink pearl, a soft gold shimmer, a soft silver mauve with a hint of gray shimmer and a deeper reddish matte.
Dior Vernis in 114 Lumiere
I haven’t bought a Dior nail polish since they reformulated it, so this is my first purchase of the newest formula. Dior Vernis in 115 Lumiere it’s a shimmery gold that is SO pretty for the holiday season. It is on the sheer side and I wear it with 2 coats but I like the subtle glossy finish it gives. I haven’t worn it long enough to test the wear time but the glitters adhere very well to the nails.
Rouge Dior Forever Liquid Sequin Lipstick
Lately I’ve been taking a look at two of the Rouge Dior Forever Liquid Sequin Lipstick.
I got 100 Dreams (currently sold out) and 323 Dazzle (still available at Sax and Neimans). These are liquid lipsticks with incredibly long wear. They have a matte finish like the regular Rouge Dior Forever Liquids, but these have a shimmer in them! After it dries, pressing your lips together reveals more glitter for a glossy finish.
These are so much fun and I’m glad I got them! I will say though that they look a little dry since it has a matte finish. They don’t necessarily feel dry and I’m happy to report that they didn’t dry out my lips though. I swatched Sequins next to the regular Rouge Dior Forever Liquid in 100.

That concludes my vacation review. I know it’s pretty late since they came out months ago, but if you’ve had any of these on your wish list or Christmas radar, I hope you find them useful!

Dior has started to launch a piece of beauty for Spring 2025. There are already some new shades of Addict Lip Maximizer at Dior and Sephora (Pinkmania, Bluemania, Peachmania, Glowmania, Nude Mania) – I ordered all the shades I could find and will try them out when my package arrives!
They also seem to be reformulating the Dior Addict Lip Glow again or changing colors. I have to admit I’m a little confused why they keep reformulating or changing this balm. This version says they now have “warm and cool” tones. I don’t know that I will be ordering any of the new ones but if you try them in the near future let me know what you think!
