Dior Electric Tropics Summer 2011 Makeup

The Electric Tropics summer 2011 makeup collection from Dior got me into a full-on summer mood right now. The weather has been gorgeous lately here in my neck of the woods and I'm making full use of this beautiful palette of browns and baby pinks.

All the shades within the Diorskin Healthy Glow Powder compact are designed to be blended together for a healthy, sun goddess complexion. I love the woven print - it's so chic and so very Dior.

There are two new 5 Couleurs Couture Color Eyeshadow Palettes for summer. The Rosy Nude palette goes on very sheer for a natural look, while the Rosy Tan compact has slightly darker shades.

I prefer the Rosy Tan as the shades can be built up for a sultrier, sexier eyelid. These eyeshadows go on like buttah, but be sure to use a primer to protect against fading and sweating.

The lips get the barest hint of color from the Dior Ultra-Gloss Crystal Nude lip glosses. The shiny and sparkly Luminescent Peach 037 is great for layering, as well as the delicate Sweet Rose 087. If you want way more color, the Dior Addict lipstick in red-orange Fire 545 is bright enough to be seen a mile away.

Available at all Dior counters nationwide and at Dior.com.

Love how the powders look like quilted satin fabric. The colors are gorgeous, too.
