Do you know what I like about Mondays? Nothing. My mood usually reflects the voiceover on the Cymbalta commercial and my face needs a life. Dior Lip Glow Color Revive balm and I go way back. It actually makes me look like I have a pulse. Earlier this year Dior launched their Glow Maximizer Light Boosting Primer and now the rest of my face looks awake! Any day of the week! #j’adore
Products that promise glow, boost or revive pique my interest, but it takes more than words to deliver and sustain my excitement. Dior won me over with their IOD line 10 years ago. Since then, I’ve graduated to Capture Totale and have yet to be disappointed. This includes the celebrities they have picked for their endorsements and their ads–right down to the music they’ve selected. #DepecheMode
Glow Maximizer Light Boosting Primer comes in a single universal shade. There are an infinite number of ways to apply it though! Because it brightens, sculpts and boosts, it can be worn alone or mixed with your foundation, tinted moisturizer or a BB cream. You can apply it before make up or over make up. Dabbing specific areas to highlight and sculpt works brilliantly. Try it on the apples of your cheeks and the bridge of your nose. #WayToGlow!
This Dior primer amplifies the skin’s natural light for optimum radiance. The iridescence is there. Keep it subtle. Use a light hand while applying so those around you don’t need sunglasses. Disco Ball and Tin Man looks are only desirable for Mardi Gras or for Halloween. Personally, I can only use the tiniest amount mixed with my most matte BB cream or day moisturizer. #LearningCurve
Dior Addict Lip Glow is a color awakening lip balm that also comes in a ‘one-fits-all’ shade. Sheer pink in the tube, it goes on clear. Dior’s Color Revive Technology reacts to the unique chemistry of anybody’s lips before releasing its color ingredient. My better half grabbed it once in the car before dinner and left ultra bright pink stains on his white linen napkin. I have never detected color after applying it myself. Universal formula but no cookie cutter results. #Individuality
The result is lips revived from within, full and radiant. The hydrating mango butter makes the unique shade last all day and I appreciate the bonus of SPF 10. Addict Lip Glow is non-sticky and borderline unscented. #Addicted
