This summer, Dior takes the spirit of tie-dye seen among the house collections and interprets it for the skin.
From hypnotic jade to amber bronze, sandy beige or lagoon blue, the colours in the new collection fluctuate, stretch and transform as though saturated by light.
A variety of sunset tones drenches the complexion and for the lips, it’s a combination of coral, pink, mauve and red. For the nails comes a wave of grenadine, which adds a twist to the key summer shades.
Solar lips
Dior reveals Dior Addict Tie Dye, a lipstick with a second, contrasting colour running through it that adds a subtle twist, boosting the first colour. Textures and shades blend together, enhancing the lips with vibrant colour.
The lips light up in six sunset combinations: rosewood heightened with fuchsia, coral sealed with red, brown with contrasting beige, violet warmed by orange, vermillion softened by mauve and candy pink emphasised with pale pink.
Dior Addict Fluid Stick is available in four new colours: a sienna beige, a delicate rosewood, a punchy pink and a flamboyant fuchsia. The Lip Maximizer comes out in a subtly iridescent nude version.
Skin at its peak
Nude Tan is available in two sunset colour harmonies for summer. A blend of oranges and iridescent pink dusted with sandy beige sculpts tanned complexions, while lighter complexions enjoy a blend of effervescent pinks and mauves, suffused with tender rose.
A sun-bleached look
The 5 Couleurs palettes metamorphose into a blend of solar shades on the eyelid. Dior creates two colour harmonies: Ambre Nuit, based on tones of bronzed amber and sand, and Contraste Horizon that evokes nuances of sky blue.
To add a metallic touch and intensify the eyes, Diorshow Khôl is available in universally flattering shades of deep blue and platinum. In Diorshow Iconic Overcurl Waterproof Mascara, lashes curl in soft turquoise.
Tie-dye manicure
For summer, Dior creates a translucent grenadine-coloured top coat that adds tie-dye shading to the nails. Applied alone, the Top Coat Tie Dye heightens the natural pink of the nails with a wave of ultra-shiny, translucent colour. Each successive coat creates a more intense effect.
Layered over one of the three Dior Vernis it-shades – Sunwashed, a milky yellow, Sunkissed, a rosy nude, and Sundown, a radiant hibiscus – the Top Coat Tie Dye customises with all-over colour or with shading for a fun, made-to-measure manicure.
Backstage secret
From behind the scenes at the Dior runway shows comes the Eye Reviver palette, a collection of ultra-luminous, universal neutral eyeshadows, which open and brighten the eyes in six simple steps.
The four eye shadows are applied in conjunction with a primer and a liner, working in perfect harmony to create a smooth, even and wide-eyed look, while adding definition and brightness.
The silver case reveals a complete set of applicators – eyeliner, foam and sculpt & blend brushes that are easy to use. The intuitive Eye Reviver palette is the ideal device for ensuring a nude look that simply glows just like on the catwalk all summer.
