REVIEW: Dior Addict Lip Glow



~AG~

I've been wanting to try this self-adjustable lip balm by Dior since the first time I saw it at Sephora. The idea of how it works is so interesting. This is a sheer lip balm that reacts with your lips' chemistry to create a customized pink shade.

What can I say about this product? This lip balm leaves a nice sheen on the lips. The vanilla scent of the lip balm is nice and not too overwhelming. It leaves my lips moisturized without it feeling sticky. It does not have the best staying power. It can stay up to 2 hours with food or drinks.

Overall, I really like this lip balm because it does not have any weird after-taste or feeling that some lip balms have. Plus, the baby pink shade that appears on my lips is very flattering. It was not too bright, and was just the right pop of color.


It is very expensive for a lip balm. It retails for USD $31 at Sephora. The hefty price tag makes me think twice about re-purchasing this product. Even though I really like the pink shade that the lip balm creates and its moisturizing properties, I will not re-purchase this product for the time being. It is a great lip balm to try out but it is too expensive to be a constant makeup product in my books.

Dior Addict Lip Glow





A sheer balm that enhances your natural lip color while moisturizing and protecting the skin. Awaken and enhance the natural beauty of your lips with this unique balm that promises the perfect pout. Formulated with color reviver technology, this silky lipstick reacts with the chemistry of your lips to create a special shade that will last all day. The addition of SPF 10 will keep you protected, while hydrating mango butter and loofah extract nourish for beautiful, luscious lips.

I've been wanting to try this Dior Addict Lip Glow for years. This lip product reacts to each person's chemistry and create a special shade. The concept amazes me. 

The actual lip product is a baby pink shade. It is sheer and does not have much color when you first apply it. But then it reacts to your lip's chemistry to create your own color. I will upload a picture of my special shade when I start using it :)

The packaging is just too cute. A pink translucent plastic cover with Dior's signature rounded bottom. Retails for USD $31. I bought it during Sephora Family & Friends Sale but you can find it at any Dior counters at Nordstrom, Bloomingdales and Neiman Marcus.

REVIEW : Dior Skinflash Radiance Booster Pen


Dior Skinflash Radiance Booster Pen




 Dior claims this skin perfector is supposed to diminish shadows, fine lines and imperfections. According to their study, 91% of women saw anti-fatigue effect after three weeks of daily application.

This is a dupe of YSL Touche Eclat Radiant Touch. The reason I bought Dior SkinFlash was to have a quick & easy under eye concealer for on-the-go. However, I discovered that it can solely be a highlighter and does not work well as a concealer. SkinFlash has a sheer texture, hence the lack of coverage. When I use this in addition to my Laura Mercier Secret concealer, I’ve noticed it does help brighten the undereye area slightly.
But how significant is the brightening effect? Not enough to make me buy the product again especially with the hefty USD $37 price tag.

REVIEW: DiorShow Maximizer Lash Plumping


DiorShow Maximizer Lash Plumping

 


DiorShow Maximizer Lash Plumping Serum & Primer claims to instantly primes, plumps, and lengthens lashes with an ultra-light and quick-drying formula. The first “active serum” mascara primer also contains a unique cell-conditioning complex made up of hydrolyzed soy proteins that promote long-term lash growth, strength, and vitality.

What is my take on this product?
  • It improves the results of my low-performing CoverGirl Lash Blast Length and Fusion mascara.
  • Holds curl better
  • Adds volumes to my lashes
  • No significant lash growth seen yet - been using it for 2 weeks
  • Overall, I am satisfied with the purchase and would definitely re-buy it.
