Dior Autumn Mood (332) Rouge Blush Review & Swatches
Autumn Mood (332)
Dior Autumn Mood (332) Rouge Blush ($44.00 for 0.23 oz.) is a brighter, medium orange with strong, warm yellow undertones and a matte finish. It had mostly opaque, buildable color coverage paired with a smooth, more velvety texture that was finely-milled but substantial.
It wasn’t too powdery but still picked up readily with a less-dense brush and was easy to blend out along the edges. It wore nicely for eight and a half hours before fading a bit.

Formula Overview
$48.00/0.22 oz. - $218.18 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to have a "silky" and "lightweight" texture that's long-wearing and have "buildable" intensity. The blushes had a smooth, lightweight consistency that was finely-milled, though not as silky as I would have expected, without being too powdery nor too firmly-pressed into the pan.
The majority of the shades I tested had medium, buildable pigmentation that was hard to over-do but could definitely be intensified for higher coverage if desired. They applied evenly and blended out without issue, and they seemed to sit well on my skin with a semi-matte finish or higher. The more shimmery shades were still more low-level and had a sheen rather than overt shimmer that yielded a more metallic finish.
On my skin, most of the hues I trialed lasted eight hours before showing signs of fading. There was a soft, floral scent to the powders.

I love that this is orange and not coral. I tend to prefer oranges leaning more red.. In the market for an orange blush..pondering this.
Looks so sunset-y, golden hour! I love this super bold orange!
Hi Christine,
Do you still list the products you’ve used in the rest of your look when your reviewing? I love your lipstick and blush here, but didn’t find them listed. Thanks!
Hi Gilad!
I do when it’s a look! The blush is the shade reviewed in the post. The lips were Urban Decay Rebel with Fenty Fu$$y gloss on top!
oops – of course you listed the blush! Thanks :).
Beautiful color for fall.
This is a beautiful shade that suits its name.
I’m glad this rated well. Sadly, “Autumn Mood” for me is something more berry toned – MAC Plum Foolery or UD Rapture. A true orange blush (even a coral one) really clashes with my skin and even my lip tones.
Oh, this is such a pretty tone of orange.
It’s looks so lovely in the case, but then slight burnt on you. I’m having mixed feelings of like a whole lot to ‘Nah!’.
