Christian Dior Skin Refining Pro Lighting Makeup Base FPS 20 SPF PA+


 

Product Description
The 1st skin-refining makeup base by Dior that prepares the skin for foundation application, improves its hold and instantly illuminates the complexion, like the enhancing lighting of a professional photographer. The ideal complement to Diorskin foundations, Radiant Base helps assimilate their skincare ingredients: the skin is beautified and the makeup result is enhanced

I received 2 complimentary samples from the Dior counter when they were unable to fix the dispenser on its previous liquid foundation bottle. I was slightly miffed on that, because it is supposed to be of a better brand, compared to other liquid foundations I owned. I should be expecting higher quality, coming from Dior, but instead it failed on me.


001 Radiant Rose is the shade that the promoter picks for me to fit my tone.
Note that there are only 2 shades available.
- 001 rosy shade to enhance the radiance of the "blue" skin tones
- 002 golden shade for "yellow" skin tones




This make-up base contains "Halo Pearls", a combination of soft focus pigments and transparent pearly particles with the ability to evenly diffuse the light in all directions. Skin texture is touted to be instantly refined and imperfections are blurred. Facial features seem reshaped by interplays of shadow and light to reveal a complexion that flows with beauty.

From the swatch above, you can see that its a rosy pink shade that is light and sheer once applied to skin. It provides a subtle radiance to the skin and matches Dior liquid foundation very well. I am currently using its Nude Skin Glowing Make-up liquid foundation and really like the fresh look with a subtle glow.

There is a slight smooth silicon feel which made the skin smoother and silkier before one piles on the liquid foundation. Even though there is no patchiness after application but it has a moderate oil-control that is not worthy to mention about.
