I'm pretty much obsessed with my
Dior Addict lippies, so when I saw the new EXTREME lipsticks on
Sephora.com I immediately searched the internet for swatches =) Unfortunately back when I ordered there weren't too many swatches to come by, so I just picked two and went for it! Here's what I picked up...

Keep reading for colors, swatches, and some NARS!

These applied really smoothly much like the regular
Dior Addict Lipsticks, but the finish is a bit less glossy with these. Don't get me wrong, they are still glossy, just not to the point like the
Dior Addict Lipsticks that look like you actually have lipgloss on!

I will tell you that if you are looking at these lippies on
Sephora.com, the colors they show next to the lipstick names are NOTHING like what they really are... I would actually say this is true about all lip products on their website.
Ok, now I'm not great at lip shots... but I tried for you!! In person they are definitely a bit darker and more vibrant.

At the time when I ordered, Sephora was offering a little
NARS freebie to their "VIBs"...

The freebie included:
Laguna Bronzing Powder, Copacabana Illuminator, and their Smudge Proof Eyeshadow Base.

I have tried the
Laguna bronzer before and I'm just not a big fan. If you are looking for a medium-tone bronzer I would go for
Benefit's Hoola over this. And of course my favorite super pigmented bronzer/contour is the
MAC blush in
Blunt. Here is
Laguna swatched

Ok so that's it! You better believe I'm going to be picking up a few more Dior Addict EXTREME lippies =) Thankfully there are more swatches out there now to help us decide between shades... though if I had it my way I would just get them all!!!
So have you heard of these? Will you be trying any out??

Hey, I just found your blog looking for swatches of these lipsticks :) When I first saw it come up on sephora.com I grabbed one too, I got Cherie Bow. Online it looks pinky mauvey and in RL its peachy. Do you think they are long wearing? I think a little more that originals but I don't think they are a long wear lipstick.
ReplyDeleteThey definitely aren't long wear, but I agree that they last a bit longer than the regular Dior Addict formula. I have found, with the few times I've worn them, that the glossiness (did I make that word up? lol) wears off in an hour or two but the color remains for another hour or so.
DeleteThis is just my own experience though! Lipsticks never last as long as they are supposed to on me :)
I hope my swatches helped!!

I love the plaza lipstick:) Aw lucky girl got the laguna blush!
ReplyDeletePlaza is definitely my favorite :) I just wish Sephora would fix their colors so I could feel good about ordering more.. sometimes I hate ordering online! lol

I love Dior lippies too but never tried this line of lipsticks. Thanks for the swatches I will def pick one up too. I debated for the longest time what to order so I can get the free NARS stuff, but ended up passing bc I already owned everything in the pouch and a back up LOL
ReplyDeletehaha I debated for a while too.. when I placed my order I actually expected that they would be out of the NARS gift, but they weren't =) I've really been liking the Copacabana illuminator! This little tube is going to last me for ages.

How did I miss this NARS gift set, darn me! Those lippies look fabulous! Gotta love Dior!
