Dior Red Cruise 854 Gloss Swatch & Review (Summer Mix)



Next up from Dior Summer Mix is the Addict Ultra Gloss in 854 Red Cruise which is a bright cherry red with a super shiny finish. It matches the Calypso nail polish that I review earlier perfectly. As it is a jelly finish there is an element of transparency but there is a good amount of colour so only a tiny peek of my lip shade comes through. On me it turns a little more raspberry toned due to the pinkness of my lips, so it may vary from person to person.
 Dior glosses last on me about 3 hours and feel quite hydrating as glosses go. It's not particularly sticky and doesn't have a detectable scent once on. As far as I know this collection is limited edition so if you see something you like its worth checking out sooner rather than later!

Buxom Lips Kanani Lip Gloss Review & Swatch


This lip gloss called Kanani by Buxom Lips from Bare Escentuals is a mid tone bright cotton candy pink with fine shimmer and glossy shine. It's semi opaque so gives some colour but not a huge amount of coverage. Given that it's advertised as a plumping gloss it has a minty scent and has a very slight tingle. I don't find it as plumping as say Lip Fusion glosses but it has a small effect on me.


I do find these nice and moisturising and can skip balm when I wear them, and I find they last about 2 hours before they gradually wear off. Overall it's a very pretty easy pink shade.
