(Dior Golden Dior Luminizing Makeup Jewel)
Let’s see the name on the outer packaging, which pretty much shows what this item is for:
Golden Dior
Luminizing Makeup Jewel
(Bijou Enlumineur D’Été)
Touch-on Luminizer for Eyes, Cheeks, and Lips
(Enlumineur Crème Yeux, Joues, Lèvres)
156 Lamé Pink
(Rose Lamé)
(Please note that this shade might not be available globally. 166 Lamé Gold (Or Lamé) is the shade sold in North America.)
This is a multi-purposed item that you can use wherever you want. On the look of it, Lamé Pink is a warm pink with frosty gold shimmer.
(I will update this post when I have a chance to play with the testers.)Today we will focus on the packaging. There are two things I particularly like about this pendant. First, the dark surface makes fingerprints less apparent. Usually, Dior’s limited-edition items have reflective silver or gold finishes throughout which make fingerprints very visible. But, with this one, I worry less about it.
Also, the pendant has a nice thickness, which I didn’t expected. It gives a more substantial look to it.
Here are two photos of the interior of the pendant and the shade of Lamé Pink:
I like the inside of the pendant as well, especially the shape of the mirror, which goes with the overall design.
At the moment, I am liking it more than I thought I would. It is less blingy and has a slightly more understated look, but it is bold enough not to look boring. Even though it cost me 3900 points on my Boots Card (it retails for £39), it was worth it.

Oh that is lovely, but North America doesn’t have the pink version? Drat. I’ll see how the other colour looks but it’s looking unlikely that I’ll buy it.
oh my gosh that is soooo cool!!

Hi Ebontien,
From what I have seen on-line, it seems that Lamé Pink is not sold in North America. But I could be wrong…
I will definitely keep you posted if both shades are available. :)
Thank you very much for leaving your comment again. Have a good week! :)

PJ,
I collect Dior limied edition items as well! All of them are gorgeous. And this one will join my collection for sure! :) I gotta get the pink one in Bangkok.
gorgeous PJ! I won’t be indulging as I’m not loving the color we got ;)
but this is super pretty! A perfect piece to your collection!
You’ve done a great job of showing this lovely pendant from all angles. It’s very helpful. Thank you!
Hi Molly,
I am certainly a collector of Dior’s limited-edition items! I have been collecting them for only a few years. I don’t have everything and would only get what I like. But, still, I have quite a few of them…:)
If you would like the pink one, do get it before you go to NYC. I am not sure if it is available in the US…
Hope you will enjoy it as much as I do!
Thank you for stopping by again! :)
Hi The Muse,
I am enjoying the look of this pendant. It is a pity that the pink one is not sold in the US, but, again, I am not totally certain…
This is definitely another nice member to my collection! :)
Thanks for your comment again! :)
Hi Sue,
Thank you for visiting my blog!
Your comment means a lot especially since you take great photos yourself. I will be stopping by your blog often!
Thank you for your comment. Hope to hear from you again! :)
oh! pretty!
Hi Kk,
Hope you enjoyed the post, and thank you very much for leaving your comment! :)
nope. No available here sadly and I’m debating on having someone grab one for me from the UK but I think I’ll skip. The price is a bit too much your side :(
It’s gorgeous though! I did pick up the lipglosses from this Collection but I am not loving them as much as the Japanese releases which seem to be a bit more vibrant! Gorgeous shimmering corals!
Hi The Muse,
I see. The summer collection’s testers haven’t been out in my local Boots, but I think they are already out in the nearby department stores. I might go and have a look soon! A couple of the items look pretty good in photos.
I agree with you. Many Japanese summer releases are looking very appealing…
Thank you for stopping by again! :)
…wishing for pink to be sold locally. Lovely.
Hi Girl-Woman,
Thank you for visiting my blog!
I do often wonder why there is often only one shade of Dior’s limited-edition product available in the US. Surely many people would opt for the pink one with this…
Thank you for your comment. Hope to hear from you again! :)
I got mine yesterday in lame pink. Havent seen it in flesh and blood yet. My brother picked it up for me in Manchester :) I am so excited.I missed the dior pendant that came out in spring 2008 :(
Hi Abha,
Thank you for telling me about your latest Dior acquisition. You have a great Dior limited-edition collection, with the Dice and the Detective palette!
I hope you will like this pendant even more when you see it in person. Do let me know what you think!
Thank you for stopping by my blog again and leaving your comment. Have a good weekend! :)
