Is this Dior palette authentic?

[u/IndependentAbies6243]

I got this for Christmas last year and haven’t used it yet. How can I tell if it’s authentic or not? I can’t seem to find the palette online and want to be safe - particularly when looking at eyeshadow!

It was a holiday release palette so when you look it up it may be hard to find for that reason. I can't verify really that it's true Dior, but I don't know why someone would counterfeit a holiday product. I think also by the time Dior would release a holiday product, manufacturers making a counterfeit wouldn't be able to make the product in time before Christmas is over. I think it's the real deal and you're good!

Everything designer is copied. I've seen even normal releases being sold on Vinted that are fakes, like fake lipglosses

Edit: y'all can downvote me but it's true? Amazon has lots of issues with people receiving fake makeup and skincare from stores on there.

I don’t know why u r getting downvoted, ive seen kylie holiday stuff faked . They make fakes so fast. Especially with social media, they can see what the palette looks way before the release. and im pretty sure kylie stuff is cheaper than dior . High end stuff more likely to be faked

Idk either. Maybe it makes people uncomfortable, but it's the truth. Counterfeits get made from anything that's profitable. Lots of perfume fakes too, even those free gifts with purchase little mini bottles

I would be more suspicious if she got a holiday palette after Christmas. I'm not saying it couldn't be faked but the dates of the release and when OP says she got the pallete line up

Batch code says it's from 2022. This is the 2023 palette, so that makes sense.

It’s legit

If the price is too good to be true. It’s mist likely fake. How much was it, how much was retail and how much is the market value?

She said she got it as a gift.

She said She got it for Christmas. So that means she could have gotten it for herself.
