Will you take a look at this beauty? When I first laid eyes on it, it was truly lust at first sight. The embossed snowflakes, the layers of colours … oh it’s enough to make a grown woman weep. Okay, almost. 😉
The 001 is a combination of pale pink and shimmer that gives the complexion a lift. It’s a sheer blush so if you’re into sheer, buildable blushes, you’re going to like this one.
Unfortunately, I’m not that big a fan of sheer blushes. I had to layer a lot of the blush just for it to show. Let’s just say when I hit the 10th layer, I started to look as though I had a cake of powder on my skin and it wasn’t a good look at all.
I believe this will show beautifully on fairer skin than mine. The pale pink is pretty but it’s just not working its full potential on my skin. I need a lot more product for it to show properly on my skin and the more you layer the blush, the chalkier it looks on the skin. I’d much prefer using this as a soft highlight on the high points of my face than a blush.
But I must say, I sure have a blast photographing it because aww come on, it’s so purdy. 😛
The Diorsnow Fresh Cheeks retails at AU$85.00 and is available at Dior counters at MYER, David Jones and selected pharmacies nationally.
Have you tried the Fresh Cheeks blush before? Did you like it?

You’re right. Oh so pretty. Down to the pink brush! Does the palette house the brush as well? I’m a sucker for those packaging. Maybe I’ll dash out and buy this 😛
The brush comes separately in the velvet pouch. So pretty hoh? 😉
Definitely pretty .. and give you a nice flush on the cheeks 🙂

Thanks Monica 🙂 x
I have to admit, I thought this was one of Dior’s all over powders that they release for Diorsnow every year so when you say it’s a blush, I’m all “What?!” It does look too pink to be worn all over but I do wonder if it was meant to be for that. Anyway, I took a peep at the counter recently but although I agree that it’s gorgeous, I passed. It looks sweet on you though. Try using a slightly denser, stiffer blush brush. You may find that it may pick up & apply colour better 🙂

Good idea, I’ll try it out with a denser brush. I used the Real Techniques face brush and blush brush for this, didn’t work. 😛
Nah, it’s too pink to be used as an all-over powder. Will look funny. 😛
Oh, this looks gorgeous! Too bad it’s so sheer, though.

Ah well … I’ll just gaze at the prettiness of the palette. 😛
Hey, where can I buy this product, I have been looking for a while can’t seem to find it. Please HELP!!!!.
Hey Maria, I’m afraid I’m not sure. I thought it would have been discontinued but I managed to find it on the official Dior website. You may have to check a standalone Dior Beauty store for this. Sorry, I’m no help. 🙁
