Who’s ready for Summer 2010? Dior is, with Addicted to Dior – the Summer 2010 collection. Its quite a small collection but there are a couple of items noteworthy. Incidentally, don’t you feel the retro 80’s feel of the promotional picture? I do love the eyes but not quite feeling all the pink.
Anyway, I passed on the eyeshadow palettes (they looked a little too warm for me) although Ready to Glow looks promising. But I felt it looked a little too similar to Parisienne Lights palette albeit it could be more pigmented. So to cut a long story short, I don’t have pictures of the eyeshadow palettes, but I’ve got pictures of some of the other highlights of the Addicted to Dior collection 🙂
The 3 items pictured are :-
- Diorskin Nude Glow Complexion Enhancer
- Addicted to Dior Crystal Gloss
- Addicted to Dior Gloss Duo
More detailed (and bigger photos) of the Addicted to Dior items are below.
Addicted to Dior Crystal Gloss (RM88)
A “jelly” lipgloss that reacts on your lips to give you your very own lip color. How about that? 🙂 Keen to see how this looks on my lips?
Addicted to Dior Lipgloss Duo – Coral (star product) (RM185)
30 Avenue Montaigue, Paris is where the House of Dior is headquartered. This address is now emblazoned on a hangtag that contains a lipgloss duo. I shall hang this on my Dior bag because I’m tacky that way! 😀
This is 001 Addicted to Coral – a gold and coral lipgloss duo. Not sure how they swatch. I haven’t had the heart to do it. But I will if you ask me to 😀 There is a pink version 002 Addicted to Pink which is a duo of fuschia pink and bronze lipglosses (see pictures of 002 Addicted to Pink on A Touch of Blusher).
Diorskin Nude Glow Complexion Enhancer (RM125)
Diorskin Nude Glow is an apricot colored highlighter that is supposed to infuse skin with a luminous glow. You can use it as a base or mix it with liquid foundation for illuminating effects and a healthy glow. It comes in 1 shade only and is supposed to suit all skintones. Not sure if it will but I’ll be sure to let you know if its too dark for me!
So 3 new items for Summer which, when you come to think about it, should suit us here in Malaysia because its Summer all year long! In fact, its like the Sahara in this heat!
Anyway, leave a comment to tell me which item you’d like a review of first and I’ll try to oblige starting from item with most comments downwards. All that said, I’m not sure if I can bring myself to touch Addicted to Coral just yet 🙂

May 12, 2010 at 9:09 amHmmm, I really would like to see the Diorskin Nude Glow first!! ^.^ But that being said, I’m curious about all of them, but RM 185 for two lipglosses? Yikes!
ParisB says
May 12, 2010 at 9:32 amIncidentally, its the 1st item I’ve been using! So yes you will likely see Nude Glow appearing first. As for the lipglosses, you aren’t paying for the glosses. You’re paying for the accessory. Dior comes up with one every season and its always limited edition and a collectors item 🙂

ParisB says
May 12, 2010 at 9:33 amThat will come too! 😀 I will be sure to post about the lipgloss duo if I swatch it but you’re right – its too pretty for now 🙂

May 12, 2010 at 9:39 amNude Glow please! 🙂 I’m still searching for the perfect product to give the glowy, dewy skin look, even after owning countless highlighters! 😛 I’m also interested in the Shu Uemera Gem Glam powder for the same reason (and because it looks fab on the model!), but I find that liquid products work better in giving that “glow”. 🙂
Thanks in advance!

ParisB says
May 12, 2010 at 2:35 pmHey! I’ve been using this but I haven’t found the “glow” I get a better glow with Meteorites but I’m working on this one 😀
Sugar says
May 12, 2010 at 9:44 amis it me or does the lipgloss look a bit meh. i find that Dior limited edition “presseed” lipglosses are really dry. so no, dont swatch! do the glow one!
ParisB says
May 12, 2010 at 2:36 pmYes! The Dior LE glosses are usually just there to be part of the “cosmetics” line else it’d just be “accessory” and where else can you buy a Dior accessory for under RM200? hehe…

May 12, 2010 at 11:10 amproducts like Addicted to Dior Lipgloss Duo always make me steer from it for some reason. it is so gimmicky. but the gloss and foundation look interesting.
ParisB says
May 12, 2010 at 2:38 pmHaha… we need that bit of gimmick in our lives I guess 😉
bubbles says
May 12, 2010 at 11:17 amI’m going to grab the 2 eyeshadow palettes !!! yay !!! and you made me wana buy the Diorskin Nude Glow too 😀
ParisB says
May 12, 2010 at 2:39 pmBut I haven’t reviewed it! 😉 The Dior eyeshadow palettes are great if you don’t already own similar looking palettes (doesn’t apply to me unfortunately)
Juan says

Sugar says
May 12, 2010 at 1:00 pmParis! u asked me abt the Caudalie grape water thingie and i gave u my opinion right, i think it was in the La Prairie platinum serum post. anyway, just wanted to let you know, it’s been abt 2 weeks since i bot it, and it’s still half full, but it’s starting to stink! i didnt leave it in the sun or anything, it’s always in my bag in the airconditioned (read : moisture sucking, skin dehydrating, germ marinating) office!
ParisB says
May 12, 2010 at 2:42 pmThanks for the update Sugar! And man! That sounds like it sucks! Nothing that stinks sounds good.
