The Dior Golden Winter Holiday Color Collection is inspired by Versailles at the heart of winter. The collection is based around shades of pink and gold, which have been among the most emblematic codes of the House of Dior since the first couture collection in 1947. Today, the tradition continues with Raf Simons, whose current creations feature gorgeous combinations of pink and gold.

Hey Christine, I have been wanting to try the eye shadows, but I keep going back and fourth between Chanel and Dior. When it comes to the eye shadow palettes, what brand would you recommend over the other?

The lipsticks look promising but I’m still sore over last year’s holiday collection. For some reason, my country didn’t get the lovely reds but awfully outdated and ugly beige lipsticks. To add insult to injury, they had the same names as their red counterparts. Huh? Here’s to hoping that we get the same makeup that everyone else in the world gets this time round.

The quints are looking pretty interesting, I missed last year’s Grand Bal collection, so I might give these a try! Not sure which one I like better, though, I feel like Golden Flower is more wearable and would suit me better, but Golden Snow is more of a unique color combination (at least in my make-up stash), so…no idea what to do! Plus I’ve already got my eyes set on some limited edition Givenchy and a Tom Ford quad. Not good. My wallet is about to cry…maybe I shouldn’t be looking at what Chanel comes up with…I wish my holiday make-up purchases could just choose themselves for me.

I like all of this! The nail and lip packaging are sooo beautiful I could weep with joy. I’m dying to see the swatches, especially the new nail colors and the Jewel Manicure Duo.

So pretty! I think Dior’s is my favorite so far. I don’t own anything from them, so perhaps this collection will be what finally entices me.

I have seen parts of this collection in store and here are my thoughts: the eye palettes are uneventful, not to say boring. Nothing like the fall collection! I find them very disappointing.
The Diorific Vernis are the most exciting part of the collection, with Minuit and Frimas being my favourites, 2 very beautiful shades (but I already own nail lacquers similar to Minuit, a plum with golden shimmer, so I’ll probably limit myself to Frimas).

Hey Christine, great post. I’m totally drooling over everything but I noticed you didnt include the dioriffic hilighter/blush powders the I have seen in other promo images. Are we not getting those in the U.S.? I really hope not b/c I was wanting that beautiful RoseD’oro powder more than anything in the collection.

I do a cheaper version of Sondra’s.
I use metallic stickers which I cut to fit and write with thin-tipped permanent marker.
Then I put them in Helmer drawers grouped by colour. I have about 70 palettes (Dior, Guerlain & Shiseido), otherwise it would have been impossible to find something.
Plus, if I ever find a better organizing system, I can remove the labels without damaging the package.

I never really purchased Dior products beside one of their addict lipgloss. I did received a Dior eye shadows and the were very silky and satin but when I apply it seems to very light so I never really purchased anything for Dior. But this holiday collection looks amazing. I want all of their lipsticks. and the packaging are so beautiful…

Hey Chirstine,

I was wondering if you are going to review the lipsticks / nail polish swatches of this collection?
I really do depend on your reviews prior to buying anything !
Thanks.

Hey Christine, I was wondering if you know if they are selling the Winter 128 nail polish in the US?
I went to Nordstrom and Macys and they only have the other three.
Thank you!!!!
