Dior 'Midnight Poison' Perfume Review

Image
Packaging: Dark navy tinted glass bottle with four creases that replicate the creases in fabric. This is the same for the cap that is quite smaller to the size of the bottle. Silver writing is the only other element on the bottle. Notes: Top- mandarin, bergamot Middle- rose Base- amber, patchouli, vanilla Smell: This is a sweet deep sensual perfume. It has hints of fruit and vanilla to it initially that turns into a lingering wood scent. I find this to last all day on my skin, getting whiffs of it throughout the day. I think it's a night perfume. I do think it works better all year round for any mature women. It's one of those perfumes that attaches to your clothes that you can smell the next day faded. When I smell and wear this, I change into a different person. I know how weird that sounds, but in a good way I feel upbeat and that everything in my life is positive. I feel sexy, adventurous but a bit exotic, damn attractive, glamorous. I guess as the ...

Dior Diorshow Mascara

Image
Packaging: Black and silver tube with silver lid and a thick, fat wire brush. The wand head is fat and thick enough to look as though it may deliver a good volume and fanning of the lashes. Smell: None. Colour: 090 Black . Opaque pigmentation. Available in 3 shades. Texture/ Formula: The formula is thick and more dry. Theres no extra product on the wand from the thin stopper or clumps on the lashes. No flaking, eye irritation and is easy to remove. The wand does an amazing job of evenly distributing the product and not only does it effortfully add volume to the lashes it also curls and lengthens them. I have found the wand easy to adjust too and it doesn't get in my eye. The curl longevity is 6hrs. It makes my eyes look wide awake and defines each lash. If thats way you're after then this would be perfect for you. If yo...

Dior Addict High Shine Lipstick

Image
Packaging: The lipstick comes in this amazing silver reflective box, which depending on what angle you hold it at you get red reflection on the box. When you open up the box the inside is red which is a nice contrast to the outside silver but it also shows that the company has put thought into the boring aspect of opening up the box. The High Shine lipstick itself is in a transparent rectangle casing. The casing is also reflective, complementing the box of red, blue/purple reflects. The outside of the casing has the word 'Dior' sticking out on two of the four sides of the casing. The casing slips off the entire lipstick with a silver, shiny ball at the other end with 'CD' engraved in it representing 'Christian Dior'. The silver tube is a twist up lipstick. Smell: None. Colour: 352 Champagne Blush - Peachy pink with tiny gold flecks leaning more towards the pink side. Sheer pigmentation  with a shine finish . Buildable colour. Available...
