I told you before this that you would be seeing a whole bunch of foundations pop up on my blog, and you will! There’s been a spate of new foundation releases in recent times, and if there’s one makeup product that is sure to grab my attention, it’s a new foundation. Just like this Dior Backstage Face & Body Foundation.
My initial impression upon seeing the new packaging, was “Meh!” I felt that it was not representative of a luxury brand like Dior. I hold to that view. The light, plastic squeeze bottles of the Face & Body Foundation and clear acrylic packaging of the other products in the Dior Backstage range of makeup is underwhelming. It almost looks and feels like toy makeup.
But the concept behind the Dior Backstage range is interesting. Basically, Dior made this range to represent what goes on backstage at Dior runway shows. Plastic squeeze bottles, because backstage makeup artists need to be quick, and plastic is light to pack and less prone to accidents. The eye, face and lip palettes come in a variety of shades and textures, to allow for easy blending and quick changes of looks backstage. As a concept, it makes sense.
But my interest was purely fixated on the Dior Backstage Face & Body Foundation. How it is different from their other foundations?
I invite you to feast your eyes on this gloriously aesthetically pleasing range of makeup by Chanel. It is the Boy de Chanel makeup collection, and I am positively smitten by it! I mean, look at that beautiful matte finish, that eye-pleasing midnight blue shade that is so understated, yet so eye-catching.
