Designer duds? Not quite in my budget yet, unless we’re talking Loehmann’s. But designer makeup? Absolutely, dahling!

There is something so positively glamorous about reaching for my Diorskin Forever foundation, popping off the sapphire cap, embossed with the letters “CD”, clasping the frosted glass bottle and dispensing the product with its precise pump.

This SPF 25, long-wearing foundation feels light on the skin but covers what needs to be covered. Blended with a nano-stretch network to invisibly perfect the complexion and a hydra-gel system to regulate moisture, the formula wears beautifully. And it’s waterproof and transfer-resistant to boot! Two pumps are sufficient for the face, and without any messy pouring, not a drop gets wasted.
