Sonia’s trick of the trade? Dior’s NEW Brow Styler ($28). Says Sania: “I love this pencil because it’s extremely defined, so it’s amazing when outlining the brow and filling in any sparce areas,” says Sonia. “Because of the pencil’s precision, you can draw in very subtle, soft, feathery strokes to achieve the effect of little hairs. The consistency of the pencil is amazing because it’s not waxy-it’s a very dry tip which blends beautifully with the hairs.”

Achieving the Bronze Goddess look With Diorshow Makeup Artist tips!

DiorShow Makeup Artist Ricky Wilson offers up some expert beauty tips and must-have products to get the best Bronze Goddess look without damaging your skin.

Dior Bronze Sun Powder Spray: You can mist on in the summertime over self-tanner, the bronze spray will give you more of an instant glow while your self-tanner is working.

Dior Bronze Collagen Activ Bronzer (applied with Dior Bronzer Brush): It’s matte and there’s also an SPF in it. I like to sweep the bronzer in a circular motion around the eye. When you do that it actually brightens up the eye area. I don’t like putting it all over the face because it looks unnatural, just put where the sun would naturally hit you. I DiorBronze Powder Spray: If you have a lot of skin showing you can use this bronzing spray on your decolletage area as well as your shoulders and arms because it’s sweat-proof and transfer resistant.

I just can’t get enough of the Miss Dior Cherie Commercial by Sofia Coppola and the song, SO sweet! What a brilliant way to translate Miss Dior Cherie into life!
