Dior Master Class

 
The Annual Dior Masterclass
Arriving fashionably late into David Jones (city store), we were escorted by staff up to the unused couture level. We passed through the mirrored entrance and were lead into the functions room. We found our place at the Dior cosmetics stations, and were served champagne and Hors d'oeuvres while we were introduced to the Dior Makeup Artists. 
 
 
 
Next we removed our makeup
 
Time to test out Dior's latest collection of colours!
 
 
THE SMOKEY DIOR LOOK
Colour Design By Tyen
Creative Director for Dior Makeup
"Purple is my colour; it sublimates the eyes
and gives expression to femininity . I created the smokey colour
enveloping it in a touch of mystery and seduction..." 
 TYEN
Reinterpreted in everyone of John Galliano's fashion shows,
Tyen's favourite colour comes in smokey, ashen mauve, and grey pink shades that extend all the way to intense black, highlighted with spectacular, refined silver.
Avery ''couture'' colour pact for magnified, highly controlled and highly appealing femininity... The result? Ultra-seductive, captivating and assertive eye makeup.

# 5 Colors eyeshadow palette in 844 Misty Mauve


                            # 5 Colors Designer palette in 808 Pink Design
 
2 Colors Edition Collector 
Creates the ultimate smokey eye,
  
New shades of Serum De Rouge

 
New collection of Dior Addict Lipsticks 

 
Dior Addict Ultra Gloss and Lip Maximiser

 
We were given face charts to document the products we used ,

 
The class was very hands on, we applied the cosmetics with instructions from the Dior Makeup Artists. This was to ensure we learnt the correct techniques for perfect application, and could master this look at home.


 
 The end result.. The official Dior makeover!
My makeup was much lighter than most of the girls who tried the catwalk version (purple and black blended into a high smokey eye) I wanted to create a
look using the Dior colour palette, I would be comfortable wearing everyday.
 
We were given a chance to ask questions and personalise our face charts with the Dior staff. We then finalised our purchases and were escorted out.
 
New Dior makeup!
I purchased the new season colours of Dior's Addicts Ultra Gloss range
and the Smokey Eyeshadow Duo
I decided on the Gloss and Shadow because they were the most usable, 
subtle tones on lips is an easy cost-effective way to update your look, with little or no technical makeup skills required. 
You could work a smokey eye into any outfit, and
easily go from a day to night look in seconds.

We were given a complimentary Dior makeup case that included
Dior Blackout Mascara
Dior Show blush
Dior  Lipstick
Dior Serum
Dior Perfume sample 
And Dior Ultra Gloss

 
Thanks Dior!!
