Again, I was buried with a lot of works. (or maybe I have
bad time management skill
). And finally I found myself a time to update my
blog.
Last weekend I bought a Dior Addict lipstick -
#579 'Must-Have'! I know we
often have headache on choosing the right color for our lips and I’m gonna tell
you how I picked the one for myself.
I already had my mind set to Dior Addict lipstick before
going to the mall. So, the problem came when deciding on the colours (there are
approx. 42 colours available ). There are 3 main tones (light, medium and dark)
and ranging from orange, pink to purple. I told the SA that I wanted something
medium so I can use it for day and night out.
Remember,
“Trial and Error” is always the best way to choose a
colour that suits your face.
First, I tried orange type and my face looked very pale (too
bad I didn’t bring my camera along to show you the output
). I then tried pink
range and I didn’t like it, maybe it didn’t look natural. Within seconds, the
smart SA asked me to try on a pink-purple type of colour. WOW! I just love the
colour! At that moment I knew I’m gonna grab it.
) Kudos to the SA!
Here are the swatches on my hand and my lips.
As you can see, the colour does bring
up the lips.
To me, I think it is perfect for either day or night out. For its texture, I
personally think that it is moisturizing (does not dry my lips out) and giving
me a nice slip. In addition, it has a little sheer, giving you a glossy lips.
However, you may pass this lipstick if you expect a long
lasting colour on your lip. You need to reapply from time to time to maintain
the colour. I guess this is the trade off between the wear time and moisture.
Overall, I love this lipstick very much! Tell me, what is your favorite lipstick?
Good Luck!
Love,
Stephy
