High quality - 11.09.09
This is a really high quality highlighter that will last forever! The powder is very finely milled and pressed well so that you don't get a lot of fallout, which I hate. My only gripe about the product is that the pinks are really too shimmery to use as a blush, so $43 for a highlighter only is a little steep.

red carpet glow NOT glitter!! - 11.05.09
Quick Take: luminous sheen, creamy, airbrushed

This is awesome....its so smooth going on. Again...you must get your skin in tip top hydrated shape!!! Again...put a little hydraction serum and moisturizer on before you attempt to use this product...As most mature women will tell you....shimmer just doesn't look good against their skin.....well, plump that dehydrated skin girls!!!! plump it with lots of moisture...and then find a beautfiul shimmer powder like this...apply just to the area under the outer corner of the eyes and yay!!!! i recommend going with the pinkier palette for tan skins...as it provides contrast...and the amber paletter for very fair skin tones...as it provides a neutral warmth. :)

So shimmery - 09.30.09
Quick Take: luminous sheen, creamy, natural looking

I had Rose Diamond and it was absolutely perfect of my skin as a highlight and just to brighten my face. Recently I also purchased Pop Diamond and that's even better! You would think that with the bolder pinks it would look awkward but it basically looks like a slightly darker version of my skin tone with shimmer in it. It's so natural looking. It can also be used as a blush(if used excessively on the cheek) and a highlighter. It also has an awesome portable mirror on the case.

Quick Take: luminous sheen, natural looking

This is something I always carry in my makeup bag. I will use it as a blush, and as an all-over eye shadow. I love the shimmer and texture of this! One of my favorite items!

Quick Take: luminous sheen, creamy

Amber Diamond makes a pretty nice highlighter for the face, it gives this really nice sheen without looking overly done. But I did not like Pop Diamond, I can't use it as highlighter because it's too pink but I can't use it as blush because it's just too shimmery for my taste. A little bit can be pretty but I usually prefer natural matte blushes without sheen. I love a bit of sheen in highlighters on however.

amber diamond - 09.08.09
Quick Take: luminous sheen, grown up shimmer, beautiful

I have this in both rose diamond and amber diamond. I love rose diamond but I also wanted a beige kind of shimmer as well. I ended up buying this one as well even though its a hefty price tag. I don't carry mine around with me bc the shimmer lasts all day. I use just a little to highlight the cheek bones and nose-its perfect. These will last you a long time so its worth the price for the quality and grown-up shimmer that these provide! I recommend!

Quick Take: luminous sheen

At first I had trouble reasoning spending nearly $45 on a highlighter but the reviews ring true and this is a GREAT product! for those with oily skin like myself, this is the only highlighter I have used so far that hasn't made my skin look worse! Amber Diamond seems to work for all skin tones, especially those with a yellow base in my opinion. Definitely worth the investment as it lasts forever.
My only advice is to be careful traveling with this as it could break and crack easily and have heard horror stories of such a thing!

I bought the bronze shade palette and it gave my face a more bronzed look. A little too much shimmer tho. But still liked it!

Rose Diamond and Amber Diamond - 08.20.09
Quick Take: luminous sheen, natural looking, multi tasker, shimmery, versatile, blendable

I've been using both Rose Diamond and Amber diamond for a week or two now and I have fallen completely and madly in love with them. These star shimmers are very versatile because you can use each color separately or mix them all together. You can use the lighter shades for highlighters and the darker shades as blush. I like to mix all the colors together and apply it to the apples of my cheeks as a blush. The Amber Diamond looks like a beautiful golden bronze glow on my cheeks and the Rose Diamond looks like a luminous, rosy flush. I love both of these shimmer stars equally and I will continue to use them. The texture is so amazing and blendable that it goes on super even and smooth for a flawless finish every time. These are so easy to apply and look wonderful alone or over other foundation or makeup. I would highly recommend buying this 5 star multi-tasking blush/highlighter.

I love this powder.. You can use the darker shades as a blush and the lighter shades for highlighter on cheeckbones, brow bones and decolete. Or use all over for a glow.

pop diamond and rose diamond - 08.12.09
Quick Take: luminous sheen, grown up, very pretty

I first bought this in pop diamond...it looked a little gold on me. I have pink undertones so nothing gold looks good on me. I think it was the orange strip down the center. I returned it and got the rose diamond and I LOVE it. It helps me to not go overboard with the shimmer bc it is subtle, but still noticeable and grown up. My skin is more medium so it doesn't work as a blush so much, but its an awesome highlighter. I recommend!

Amber and Rose Diamond - 08.10.09
Quick Take: luminous sheen, natural looking, shimmery, versatile, beautiful colors

I bought Amber and Rose Diamond today and they look beautiful. These are very versatile because you can use them as highlighters or blushes or all over face shimmers, depending on the look you're going for. I bought amber diamond to use as a beige highlighter and a shimmery bronzer. I bought rose diamond to use as a shimmery pink blush or a pretty white highlighter. I love both shades and definitely recommend them. They last a long time and look great on my light skin. Plus, they give my skin an angelic glow.

I adore Dior! - 08.03.09
Quick Take: luminous sheen

This blush is by far the best one I have owned - and boy have I owned a lot. It's soft and pretty with a touch of shimmer that gives me that perfect pink glow. I have very fair skin too and it never looks clownish or too bold. Simply put, it's perfect!

So pretty and natural - 07.28.09
Quick Take: luminous sheen, natural looking, shimmery

This is my second one. If they discontinue it I will be very upset. Before that I was using the CD duo blush which is alsy very nice. I like that I can have a shimmery blush on my cheeks and then a lighter shimmer on my forhead, nose and chin.

Perfect shade... - 07.27.09
Quick Take: natural looking

I love this dior blush. The blend of shades are great. The little bit of bronze color really makes it pop. I also use the light pinl color for a eye shadow base color. Great color choice for blondes.
