I just had to use this picture to introduce the Dior Addict lipsticks from the Cherie Bow collection. I didn’t realise just how pretty the Dior Addict lipstick casings can look when the light hits it right. The prismatic colours are absolutely lovely!
These pretty covers house the Dior Addict lipstick line which are one of the early balm-lipstick hybrids. I have Dior Addict lipsticks from way back (I’m a big fan) and they have all been very similar in texture. Light, balmy and moisturising. Some have sheerer colours and some have more pigmented colours depending on the sub-lines but the take away is always the same – moisturising, lightweight colour.
In the Spring 2013 collection, a couple of new colours were included. Dior reformulated their Addict lipsticks about 2 years back, where they were made more pigmented, without losing the balmy texture. I am not sure why these new colours don’t feel the same. Am I disappointed? Well, yes I am. Let me tell you why.
