Christian Dior Rouge Dior Replenishing Lip Color - 999 Celebrity Red

This Christian Dior lip colour is one of the most vibrant non matte shades I've tried in a while. Whilst lightweight in consistency the colour is very high impact. 999 Celebrity Red is a classic 'red' and I find it an instant face brightener. I'd strongly recommend a lip liner when wearing this product as it is unfortunately prone to feathering.

Christian Dior Diorific Lipstick - 013 Rouge Bingo / Roulette Red

This lipstick is one of Dita Von Teese's favourites so of course I had to try it! The colour is a vibrant and bright red that turns pink red on my skin (I have a habit of this). Certainly impressive to say the least although I'd recommend a wearing a lip liner for longevity and to keep the product in place.

Christian Dior Lady Dior Palette

Christian Dior's 'Lady Dior' palette is a limited edition creation from the Dior house and is magnificent. I can't actually bring myself to use any of these Dior palettes, but to look at and admire is another thing ;p

Christian Dior Mitzah Palette

This Christian Dior Mitzah palette is named after Dior's muse Mitzah Bricard - known for her love of leopard print. This palette is make up genius!!

Christian Dior Serum De Rouge Lip Treatment - 850 Red Serum

Dior's Serum De Rouge Lip Treatment in 850 Red Serum is my latest addiction! Love. love LOVE!

Christian Dior Tailleur Bar

I read about Christian Dior's Tailleur Bar a while back and was delighted to see it available at Selfridges last week. The set is limited edition and quantities are scarce.
The eyeshadow design is taken from an original illustration by Rene Gruau and celebrates the first Dior Couture Collection in 1947 and the Bar suit.
It also comes with a complementary Rouge Serum in pink.
Very happy and lucky to add this beauty to my collection.

Christian Dior Addict Lipstick - 874 Abyss Red

This week I rediscovered Dior's Addict Lipstick 874 Abyss Red. A deep blood red with lots of shine. It is moisturising and comes with that very classic lipstick fragrance.
On the lips the shade reminds me of Ellis Faas's famous L101 Ellis Red - a blood red with little orange or pink tones.
Stunningly different.

Rouge Dior Lip Colour - 648 Stage Red

I am a a bit of a Dior addict (shoes,bags,sunglasses - you name it!) so when I saw the Rouge Dior range I was keen to give it a go. On initial testing, I thought 648 Stage red was a little too coral and maybe a bit to mature, but once settled on my skin, this shade turned a beautiful coral red with metallic sheen. A nice change to my usual red selection.

Christian Dior Diorific Lipstick - 14 Dolce Vita Red

Christian Dior's Diorific Lipstick in 14 Dolce Vita Red is THE bomb. I simply can not find words to describe this product. The colour is one of the most beautiful reds I have come across - it is bright and vibrant with depth. It stays on the lips well and I find that I rarely need to touch up. For lovers of red lipstick, I can not recommend this lipstick enough.

Christian Dior Mitza Sunglasses

This week I had a 'moment' that resulted in purchasing a pair of limited edition Christian Dior Mitza sunglasses. The glasses were inspired by Madame Mitza Bricard, who was the famous muse of Christian Dior himself.

I was told (and happily believe) that there are only a handful of these available in Australia. I don't regret the purchase at all - it was love at first sight :)
