Product Description from Manufacturer:
Diorskin Nude®

Natural Glow Hydrating Makeup

Containing nearly 40% water, this fluid foundation offers an instant sensation of well-being. Skin appears fresher, silky and feels more comfortable.
Thanks to micro-droplets of water, this foundation’s coverage is lighter than a more “classic” fluid formula, even as it evens out the complexion and makes it appear more radiant and transparent.

With daily use, the skin becomes more beautiful for an ever more natural and radiant result than upon first application.

Why I bought it:
I was in need of a hydrating foundation and I had already narrow down the choices to either DiorSkin Nude or Lunasol Water Cream Foundation. Both had ravings from MUA, Beauty Bloggers and forums alike. So it was a little hard to choose between them. I chose DiorSkin Nude as the lady was so nice that it was hard to refuse her. However, I ended up buying the Lunasol Water Cream Foundation a week after I bought the DiorSkin Liquid Foundation.

Packaging:
An elegant glass pump bottle with sleek edges. Not exactly the best that I've seen but I'm alright with this one. The pump bottle is very hygienic and fuss free. Which I totally like.

Texture:
Creamy runny liquid. Usual texture as one would expect of liquid foundation.


Price:
The price is more less similar to brands around the price range. Not exactly the cheapest I've bought but still acceptable to me.

Road Test:
The product looks darker when it just came out of the bottle but once it has been spreaded, it blends effortless into the skin. The foundation is very spreadable and a little goes a long way.Coverage is sheer to medium and the finished look is more dewy than matte. Typical to that of Japanese Foundations.

The foundation did oxidize a little but it made my skin look even better. No patchiness experienced and I only had to retouch at the end of the day, when I leave work for home.

Actually, I quite like the result at the end of the day. My facial oils actually made this foundation even nicer.. Weird I know but that was how I felt and looked.

Verdict:
This is my new HG foundation. I'm so in love with it that I'm using it on a daily basis, despite knowing that I need to finish up the rest of my opened foundations first. It's definitely worthed the money.

1 pump is enough for the whole face and if you need more coverage, you can still build up without looking like a geisha.

The finished look is very typical to that of Japanese foundations, it gives a dewy and glowy look and did a nice job of even-ing out my skintone. I'm LOVING this foundation!!!

Other Product Pics:

Here I did a comparison between Diorskin Nude and RMK Liquid Foundation. Notice the glowy finish that seems to hide the "lines" by reflecting light better?
