. DIORIFIC IN DIVA.
I thought i’d do a little beauty post today, largely because today’s a rather exciting day for me in that myself and a couple of other bloggers are spending the evening shooting with John Lewis for their up and coming advertising campaign. We’re going to be styling ourselves with garments from their 2014 range (with brands like Reiss, Hobbs, French Connection etc) & then getting our pout on for a full on photo shoot (I am SO nervous).
. Diorific in Diva – Winter Special Lipstick .
So in prep for my photo shoot tonight which will include a bit of a hair and beauty makeover, I thought I’d share my latest beauty must have which you may have noticed i’ve been wearing in all my outfit posts lately. My Diorific, Winter Special, lipstick, which Jase chose and bought me for Christmas. I don’t wear lipstick every day, I often opt for a benetint stain or coloured lipseal for every day use, but whenever i’m heading out after work or at the weekend lipstick becomes my ultimate beauty staple as I think a bold lip really glams up any makeup look.
I always opt for one of two lipsticks for this, either my Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet lipstick in Colour 38 (La Fascinante) or my new Diorific lippy which I got this Christmas. They’re both a very seductive dark red colour, but this Dior lipstick has a gorgeous pinky undertone which really seems to suit my skin tone. I sometimes find I can look a bit washed out with bold lipstick, but this Diorific shade really seems to compliment my complexion.
What’s your favourite red lipstick? Do you have any tips & tricks for application (i’m still a novice). Which is your favourite lipstick brands?
Perfect timing, I’m looking to treat myself to a nice new lipstick soon! Regarding application, I’ve noticed that I seem to tap/stroke the corner of my lip gently with the lipstick to find the right starting point (I automatically ‘know’ when I’ve found the right spot which means I can do it without looking in a mirror now yay). Then keep a cotton bud on hand for any smudges :)
I don’t know about the reds but Tom Ford does the most delicious colours in the world so it must be worth a try!
