Dior Addict Fluid Stick in Kiss Me (389)

The new Dior Addict Fluid Stick is one of the few makeup items that actually got me excited this year. I am already deeply (?) in love with Dior Addict lippie and lip-gloss range, and this "lip hybrid that can do it all" peaked my interest. The tube is the same size as Dior Addict Lip Gloss. Firstly, I adore this chic and pretty case but it is a bit heavy and borderline bulky. You can clearly see the colour through the transparent exterior. The inside is shaped like a lipstick bullet, which is perfect for the "Fluid Stick" name. Kiss Me appears as a light ballerina pink from the outside, but the colour on the applicator looks much warmer and darker. Dior Addict Fluid Stick has a creamy and cushiony consistency and Kiss Me is very pigmented and looks as slightly deeper pink once applied on the back of the hand. On my lips though, it shows up lighter and cooler, which is more like the colour you see from the tube.

This is hands down the prettiest light pink that I own.

From the swatches I have seen on other peoples blogs, the bright more vivid colour’s are also incredibly pigmented, however personally I am not really brave enough to wear a really bright, vivid, statement lippy, I am more of the pretty pink colours with amazing glossiness and a bit of sparkle.

I must tell you Dior Addict Fluid Stick is slightly strange. It transforms both in the texture and the colour, which caught me off guard a little. I expected it to be a thicker version of a lip-gloss, however when I first tested it, the colour went on thick like concealer and slightly washed out my complexion.

At this point I was silently disheartened, but the formula warmed up in seconds and transformed into something much lighter as if it was melding with my lips. The colour deepened and ended up looking not only wearable but also incredibly pretty.

It wore really quite well, I expected it like a lip-gloss to fade and wear off pretty quick. However even the shine lasted such a long time and it left a stain to my lips afterwards which meant I only had to put a lip-gloss over it to help regain the glossiness.

Overall, I have to say the boy did good getting this. It’s just as amazing as I was hoping for. Personally, I think it really lives up to the hype! Just slightly wish there were less bright shades.
