Have you ever purchased something while on vacation that you would likely have never purchased while at home? Well, I did just that almost a year ago while @silsetham and I were in Prague. Walking down a beautiful, shop-filled street, we came across a store called @douglas_cosmetics – a retailer I would compare to Sephora. And, while in there, I decided I needed the @diormakeup Lip Glow ($34 for .12 ounces – https://shopstyle.it/l/bdEV1)!
What it claims:
๐ This cult favorite color-reviver lip balm reacts to the unique chemistry of each personโs lips for a natural flush of custom color on each skin tone
๐ Enriched with hydrating mango butter, it strikes the perfect balance between lip color and lip care
๐ Lips look fresh, hydrated and radiant
My experience:
๐ I purchased shade 001 Pink.
๐๐ป The packaging is beautiful.
๐๐ป It feels super hydrating on the lips. Iโve used so many balms that feel like theyโre sitting on top of the lips, but this actually feels like it sinks in.
๐๐ป๐๐ป The shade is beautiful – itโs just not for me because itโs too cool-toned pink. Iโve been able to make it work by layering another product on top, however.
๐๐ป It lasts longer on my lips than a lot of other lip balms Iโve tried.
My verdict?
While I still donโt think any lip balm is worth $34, I wonโt deny that this is a very nice product. Aside from the color just not working with my skin tone and makeup color preferences, I would recommend it for anyone who has the money to spend and has been looking for a really nice lip color/lip balm combination.
