Dior Addict Ultra-Gloss

DIOR makes me weak in my knees.
I can't explain my obsession with the brand, but it's there. Is it because it's French? Elegant? Timeless? Classic? I could go on and on. 
Since little age, everything French, has special place in my heart. Dior is where French and beauty meets, so I guess that would explain mine affection. 

Dior Addict Ultra-Gloss is not just a lip gloss, but with Dior it doesn't really surprise. It is also a lip plumper.
This formula that is bursting with hyaluronic acid, gives lips a fuller look and long lasting moisture.

This miracle product offers three great qualities, benefits all at once. It's:

- Ultra glossy
- Ultra plumping
- Ultra hydrating

I love this formula, as, besides all the great qualities mentioned above, it doesn't have sticky finish. This lip gloss is very lightweight, which is amazing, as, I believe, we all want maximum performance and looks, without a feeling that you have tons of product on you.

18 addictive colours, created by Peter Phillips, Creative and Image Director of Dior Makeup, and adjusted shade by shade to stand out as true fashion statements, with three different shine effects to choose from:*

  • Sparkling: Colour with a high concentration of glitter
  • Iridescent: Colour that radiates with fine, contrasting pearlescent pigments
  • Sheer: Clear, pure colour



Beautiful mirror shine with lots of glitter. Looks amazing on it's own or on top of a lipstick. Lipgloss feels super lightweight and as promised also delivers great long lasting hydration. It makes me feel happy when I wear it - Dior just has that effect on me.

 Natural light
Direct sunlight

Packaging with Dior never disappoints - it always looks so elegant and exclusive. It almost looks like it's made from a glass and has DIOR engraved on it. It has a crystal handled applicator, that is created to "maximize the glossy result and deposit the perfect dose on lips for greater precision of application, as easy and intuitive as ever."*





When, you happen to lick it by accident (wink), it, not only looks sweet, it also tastes sweet. 
Below you can see some swatches



Happy National Lipstick Day!

Tease with Teeez

Teeez Cosmetics - a brand that will bring a lot of joy and surprises. I just have the feeling.

Teeez Cosmetics is a European brand, created in the Netherlands in 2004. Their makeup is fun and bold, bright and different. It definitely stands out!


This is what they say about themselves:
"We are exclusive. Eccentric. And obsessed with fashion. Our passion is to continuously surprise and seduce you each season, where we invent a new kind of beauty."*
After reading this, it all makes sense now. A cosmetic brand that is obsessed and inspired by fashion. Does it get any better? 
Teeez fascination with fashion is noticeable not only in the products themselves but also packaging. It's so pretty and unique. 
Packaging is one of the many things that draws me to this brands. What's very different and super cute is that a few of the products even have a nice little message inside the packaging, which also makes it perfect as a gift. 

Colorful and amazing packaging

The Teeez Cosmetics product I'm currently loving a lot is Sealed With A Kiss Lip Duo in Orchid Spirit. It looks like a bullet and will blow your mind away.

Best kind of bullet

This amazing lipstick is from their Sugar Rush collection and comes in 16 different shades. As I mentioned above, mine is in Orchid Spirit. 
As the name would suggest, you get 2 in 1. One end gives you intense matte with amazing pigment and coverage, and the other end delivers a super glossy look.

Intense Matte

Super Glossy

I like to apply the matte first and then glossy on top, as it gives my lips nice dimension and fuller lip look. 
Lipstick is long lasting (it really is), moisturizing and isn't sticky. That's like perfection. It has a sweet and almost fruity but light scent.

Matte and Glossy

Teeez Cosmetics launch a new collection each season, where every collection has a story to tell. I keep falling in love with the brand more and more, and can't wait to see what they will bring us next.

Dear Teeez, we will meet again very soon, that I know. I have a list of a few products, that I have my eye on. Keep surprising! 

P.S. At the moment Teeez Cosmetics are exclusively available at THE BAY or via TEEEZ COSMETICS website.

Military Red By BURBERRY

Burberry - British luxury fashion house, that not only focuses on fashion, accessories and fragrances but also cosmetics! I'm sure you were already aware of that.

I'm a big fan of fashion brand's cosmetic collections - not only color will be in trend but also the execution and visual performance of the product will match your current fashion trend. 

I have always liked Burberry - it is very luxury and chic but at the same time very understandable.

Now let's talk lipstick.

  • "Discover an effortlessly buildable lip colour, for multiple lip looks with just one shade.
  • A rich blend of satin-finish pigments and shiny polymers gives luminous colour brilliance, while the weightless formula delivers a customisable make-up result: a single kiss of colour gives understated luminosity, two or three kisses give intense depth and vibrancy.
  • Infused with Burberry's signature blend of rosehip, tea and lavender, the whisper-light texture glides on with supreme comfort and gives continuous hydration." *

-Military Red 109-

I was very lucky to win this beauty via Dave Lackie's giveaway - so very grateful. Always.
Red is classic and always will be. It also has been really trending for a good while now but I have not been brave enough to try it, nor to wear it.

By getting my hands on this beauty, I really didn't have much of a choice.

My Burberry Kisses N.109 in Military Red came in mini pocket size casing with traditional and signature pattern on both - casing and lipstick itself. Very cute. Added that luxury feel right away.

I fell in love with the lipstick and color right away. It's so smooth and easy to apply, last a good while and looks fabulous. Addition to that, it comes with added value - instant confidence!
