Dior Rouge Blush 001 Midnight Wish Holiday 2018 Makeup 1

.

Dior‘s holiday 2018 Midnight Wish makeup collection, like the brand’s recent holiday collections, features some lovely Diorific items. However, there is no Diorific pressed or loose powder this time. (Take a look at the ones I have from 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017.) I suppose, in a way, Rouge Blush in 001 Midnight Wish from this collection is the continuation of the gold-toned pressed/loose powders from previous holiday seasons, and I decided to get it with my Boots points. Today I would just like to share with you photos as well as my first impression of the item.

Based on the official information I found on-line, it was not obvious to me how the new version was supposed to be different. (The descriptions of the features of the two versions were virtually the same, and it seemed to me that the main difference was just the packaging.) To know whether there was any actual difference, I decided to try the new version and compare the ingredient lists of the two versions.
