[unpaid/purchase/affiliate] We are hot-foot back from Rome – what a great place! One minute you’re outside Zara, the next you’re inside a colosseum – you can’t move for ancient ruins and museums. It was the re-set I needed. On the return journey, I ended up in Duty Free which is actually pretty impossible to avoid since you get filtered through it before you can so much as get a coffee.
I love the sheerness colour balance of Dior Lip Glows – the fact that you get enough colour to be impactful but it feels and behaves like a tinted balm.
I opted for Strawberry because under the weird lights the airport, it looked like it had some orange to it. The ladies on the cosmetic counters could not have been more helpful – I asked to try it so they cleaned it and sprayed it before it went anywhere near my lips.
It’s a little bit shy on the swatch – with this product, it needs to be tried on the lips because that’s when it comes to life. As it happens, it’s very pink (everything I try in this vein gets compared to the discontinued Gucci Rene Pink – I can’t help it!). I like it but I think if I’d seen it in daylight I probably wouldn’t have been tempted.
The thing with a tinted balm is that it’s such an easy wear – you really cannot go wrong with it. I like the fact it gives my lips a smoothing gleam, it feels lightweight and looks casually bloody lovely! You can find this at Sephora for £32 HERE.
