Dior Cosmetics: My New Addiction

I have worked at the Dior counter a few times and been able to play with some of their products. The first product I used was the Dior Addict lipstick, which was the perfect combination of a lipstick and a gloss. The color goes on so smoothly and leaves a vibrant shine on your lips. Next was the Lip Glow, which is perfect to apply on top of your lipstick, which gives it new life after wearing it for a few hours. I also like to just wear it alone as a casual gloss.

Their fragrances are also beautifully luxurious such as Escale a Portofino. This Eau de Toilette is a nice light citrus scent that makes you feel as if you have been transported to the Mediterranean coast and are just basking in the sun while you look out at the beautiful sea. This is one of my favorite fragrances.

Their eyeshadows are definitely worth their slightly steep pricing. The pigments are so rich and the color truly translates from palette to eye lid. They also have beautiful 5 shadow palettes which help those who travel a lot as well as those who are just starting out with makeup. The 5 shadows can be arranged on the eye in so many different ways, whether using all of the colors or just a few.

Now on to the mascaras, my favorite piece of makeup. I bought my first Dior Show Extase mascara about 3 months ago and I can’t remember what pushed me to make the purchase. I am very glad I did because this mascara is one of the best out there, at least of what I have tried. It gives you extended, lifted and super thick lashes that appear almost to be false. I fell in love with this mascara right away and I got my younger sister to fall for it as well. As a warning, it is a thicker formula and the brush is bigger so if you do not always get along with this sort of brush, perhaps it is not the one for you. I personally love mascaras of this nature, so it fit into my daily makeup regimen perfectly.  Dior Show, their basic mascara, which I have not tried on myself yet but have heard amazing things about, leads me to believe that I will take the leap and try it out soon.

Foundation is done beautifully by Christian Dior. The texture is so nice and silky that you do not even worry about this formula clogging your pores or looking caked on. The foundation glides over the skin so smoothly that it gives a nice flawless look. It also lasts for a long time, granted that is dependent on the type of foundation that you choose.  The Dior Skin Sculpt Foundation is their full coverage foundation that I have used and it covered what I needed it to without looking like I put a mask on my skin. It also didn’t feel heavy on my skin once I put it on, which some full coverage foundations have been known to do.

This is my account of these amazing products, but you will only be able to feel as I do if you try them yourself. Since they are on the higher side of prices try their mascara or their foundation, whichever you feel you want to invest in more.
