Dior Millefiori Motif Rouge Blush Review & Swatches
Millefiori Motif (361)
Dior Millefiori Motif (361) Rouge Blush ($46.00 for 0.23 oz.) is a medium pink with soft, warm undertones and a satin finish. It had semi-opaque, buildable color coverage paired with a smooth, moderately dense texture that was almost cream-like as it was quite finely-milled and not at all powdery. The blush picked up readily with a brush and blended out with little effort on my skin. It stayed on well for eight and a half hours before fading visibly.

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 the pattern on this!! This might have to come live at my house.
I love the embossing and also the shade itself. I am a fan of Dior blushes, really all things Dior makeup, and I hope I find this in Canada somewhere to purchase.
Very beautiful embossing! As in, perhaps too lovely to want to ruin? That aside, I do love this one because it seems like it may be bright enough to show up nicely even on me. However, it’s the lighter cheek trio by Mother Pat that I will likely get for a pink blush.
Another gorgeous shade and beautiful finish.
This is beautiful!
The colour, the finish, the embossing! This is making my want sense go into full drive, Yes I have a want sense.
It is LE, expensive so I’ll probably pass, but d–n, it’s lovely!
