I Recently Tested £425 Worth of Dior Makeup—Here Are the Products I'd Purchase Repeatedly.

      No one quite compares to Dior Beauty. Indeed, when it comes to luxury makeup brands, their products consistently top my favorites list. With exceptional formulas and elegant packaging, every launch has captivated me. That said, Dior's recent releases may be my favorites to date. As a beauty editor who leans towards a "no makeup" makeup style, I always seek out quick and easy products that I can apply in seconds and trust to perform well. If I had to pick one look for life, I would choose a luminous base with a touch of color on my cheeks and lips. So, upon discovering Dior's new dewy blush sticks and complementary lip butter balms, I knew I had to test them right away. Thus, I thought I would create a complete makeup look using my go-to Dior Beauty products alongside these exciting new additions. Curious about the results? Keep scrolling to find out...

      I selected a range of Dior products to put to the test immediately. I assessed everything from complexion products to mascara and lip gloss, ensuring I provided my honest feedback on each item below.

      The Best Dior Beauty Products

      1. Dior Hydrating Eye Patches

      Best for: Makeup prep

      DIOR Hydrating Eye Patches

      While this may not technically be makeup, these hydrating under-eye patches from Dior have become an essential part of my makeup routine. I have always struggled with dry under-eyes, which often makes my concealer apply unevenly. However, thanks to a hydrating blend of hyaluronic acid and niacinamide (along with caffeine to refresh the eye area), these patches allow my makeup to apply flawlessly. Are they a must-have in your makeup bag? No. But are they a fun and stylish way to elevate your makeup routine? Absolutely.

      Pros: Hydrates the under-eye area, creates a smooth base for concealer.

      2. Dior Forever Skin Glow Foundation

      Best for: Radiant skin

      DIOR Forever Skin Glow Foundation

      I won't lie; I can hardly remember what I did before discovering this foundation. As indicated earlier, I prefer a minimal makeup look, particularly with base products. I dislike heavy foundations, so I typically go for skin tints or tinted moisturizers. However, this lightweight foundation delivers excellent coverage with a radiant, natural dewy finish. How? It has an 86% skincare base with ingredients commonly found in Dior skincare products, leaving your complexion looking and feeling hydrated, glowy, and plump. There are an impressive 43 shades available, and I chose 1N, which matched my skin tone beautifully. It offers light to medium coverage, but the lightweight formula allows for easy buildability if desired.

      Pros: Hydrating formula, lightweight on the skin, leaves a radiant finish.

      Cons: May be too sheer for some.

      3. Dior Forever Skin Correct Full-Coverage Concealer

      Best for: Concealing blemishes and under-eye circles

      DIOR Forever Skin Correct Full-Coverage Concealer

      I expected this concealer to be similar to the foundation, but its coverage is truly remarkable. It maintains a lightweight, creamy feel while effectively concealing blemishes and under-eye circles, making my complexion appear healthier than ever. With an incredibly smooth texture, it glides on easily and blends effortlessly. A little goes a long way—in my case, I applied just a small amount under my eyes and on my chin. I blended it with a concealer brush and loved the outcome, especially under my eyes. Despite providing full coverage, it didn’t crease, leaving my eyes looking bright and radiant.

      Pros: Smooth, creamy texture, high coverage, radiant finish.

      Cons: Might be too high coverage for some.

      4. Dior Forever Nude Bronze

      Best for: A sun-kissed finish

      In the summer, I prefer a natural-looking bronzer for a subtle sun-kissed effect, and this product fits the bill. While it's not suited for sharp contouring, it does wonders for warming up the complexion. I chose shade 04 Warm and applied it to my cheekbones, forehead, and nose. I loved the result and can see myself reaching for this regularly this season. Plus, the packaging is so chic!

      Pros: Natural-looking finish, stylish packaging.

      Cons: Not ideal for contouring.

      5. Dior Backstage Rosy Glow Stick

      Best for: A dewy hint of colour

      Now, let’s discuss one of the newest launches I’ve been eager to highlight. If you’re familiar with Dior's beauty products, you might know of the popular Dior Addict Lip Glow. Although this new product features similar packaging, it is the brand’s first stick blush that delivers a dewy pop of color to the cheeks. A notable aspect is that each formula adapts to the skin's pH to create a unique shade for your cheeks
