As the name states it all, Coral Glow is a beautiful orangey coral shade as compared to its peachy pinkish sister, Pink Glow.
For ladies who are concerned that the orangey coral shade might turns out too orangey or muddy, I do not feel so when I did the swatches. In fact, I kind of like how it reminds me of beach gals who had that healthy sun-kissed look while playing beach volleyball. :) Texture and pigmentation is indeed top-notch. As the pigmentation and texture of Coral Glow is intense and smooth, do take note to lightly apply the colours on and slowly build up to the intensity that you desire.
Now comes the question...... Coral Glow or Pink Glow??? Let's take a look from the pan. They both look pretty close doesn't it? But if you slowly observe, you can see that Pink Glow on the left looks pinkier and Coral Glow on the right looks more orangey and coral. I do not see any difference in the 2 bronzer shades on the left side of the pan.

From the swatches below, the difference between Pink and Coral Glow starts to show up more. Other than the 2 bronzer shades which look almost identical (in fact, I think they are), the stronger orange peach tone in Coral Glow (top row) stands out against the pink tone of Pink Glow (bottom row).
More comparison below:-

Do you need both? I think no because once it's applied on the cheeks, the difference could almost be negligible. The choice to make is whether you like orange undertone better or pink undertone better. My choice still stands with Coral Glow but I am glad I had both to satisfy my own curiosity on which is my preference.
I hereby end this post with a simple look that I had with Coral Glow on. I had it on very lightly (which seems almost non-existent, so sorry!) but hey, I had a good hair day, haha.
They are both very beautiful but I agree I think you need only one both. They look similar. I am also glad I bought Coral Glow too. Thanks for the swatches my dear that was fast.
ReplyDeleteNo prob, Jacq. I know many are curious on the comparison given the shades being so close. Coral glow is just gorgeous.
DeleteThese are beautiful dior products. I can see that the coral looks less pink, so i'd pick that one. even though there's barely a difference! btw, I tagged you so check it out!
ReplyDeleteI noticed many ladies leaning towards coral glow :)
DeleteSure! Will check out the tag.
Wahwahwah u got both!! I can understand the feeling of wanting to get both and having the satisfaction owning all :D
ReplyDeleteI couldn't resist not getting coral glow!
DeleteI got the Pink Glow... and was kinda regretting not to get the coral glow instead. Cos i didn't want to wait. LOL, talk abt instant gratification. But seeing how close they are now... i dont feel so bad now. Hahah! Gorgeous...im still envious that you have both though...
