First off, lemme just say, Dior. We’re talking *Dior*. It’s not exactly drugstore prices, but hey, sometimes you gotta treat yourself, right? Especially if you’re aiming for that *certain* kinda glam. Like, “I just stepped off a yacht in Monaco” kinda glam. (Even if your actual yacht is, uh, a very leaky inflatable in your bathtub. No judgment.)
Sephora is your best bet to getting your hands on these glittery lippies. Plus, the whole “buy now, pay later” thing with Klarna/Paybright is kinda tempting, isn’t it? I mean, who *doesn’t* want to spread out those payments when you’re, ya know, indulging in a little luxury? And don’t forget the Beauty Insider perks! Free stuff is *always* a win. Always.
Now, about the lipstick itself…it’s supposedly transfer-proof. Transfer-proof! That’s a big claim, Dior. I’m always suspicious of “transfer-proof.” I mean, does it *really* not leave a trace on my coffee mug? Or my significant other? Or my cat (who has an unfortunate habit of kissing my face)? I’m gonna need some evidence. But, I’m willing to try it for the sake of science (and looking fabulous).
And the sequin finish…oooh, shiny! Peter Philips, the Creative and Image Director, seems to know his stuff. He dreamt up these four dazzling shades, which makes me wonder, *what are they*? They don’t say what the shades are specifically, so you have to go to the website or store to find out. It’s kind of annoying, but I guess it builds the suspense.
I also saw something about a limited-edition golden cap for the holidays. Okay, that’s cute. It makes me think of Christmas and champagne and all things sparkly. Good marketing, Dior, good marketing. I’m a sucker for fancy packaging.
The “12 hours of comfort and shine” claim also catches my attention. I mean, most lipsticks feel like sandpaper after a few hours, so if Dior can pull off actual comfort, I’m impressed. Though, let’s be real, I’ll probably reapply it every hour just because I like looking at it.
Honestly, I’m kinda on the fence. It sounds amazing, but also kinda… extra? I mean, is it *too* much glitter? Can you even wear sequin lipstick to the grocery store without getting weird looks? Probably. But hey, who cares? If you wanna rock a full-on glitter lip while picking out avocados, you do you!
