・ Review + Swatches ・DIOR Lip Maximizer

Hello! Today I want to share with you something really interesting and popular these days.

I'm talking about lip plumpers, a lip plumper it's a particular kind of lipgloss which enhance and stimulate your lips thanks to its collagen-enriched formula. Also, it redefine the contour of your lips  day after day giving a sense of freshness and pleasure. The one that I own it's from DIOR and it's called "Lip Maximizer" in the shade 001 (pink) I'm not sure if  there are other shades since this is a gift but.. it would be useless since actually it has no color, it's transparent on the lips. I've already talked about this product in my "march beauty favorites post" and it was also in "my christmas wishlist" (that's where my mom saw it lol) anyway, what's written on the package is "Dior's must-have beauty accessory for luscious lips" and it suggest to use it for 15 days to see the results, I'm not really constant.. but starting from today I'm going to upload this post in 15 days to see if there is a difference. What I can say about it now is, it surely makes really defined the contour of my lips, and it's moisturizing as well, but that's all.. I think there's no difference of volume as you can see from the picture above.

When you apply it on your lips it's itchy and it smells like.. toothpaste? I'm not sure, but it's a good smell.

The packaging it's really classy and gorgeous with the cap typical of Christian Dior, which is firmly stay on its place, and there is no risk that the gloss comes out and makes everything dirty and sticky, though I think it's really delicate to manage.. the applicator is really small and soft, also, it comes with instructions/advices in every language like "to pump up volume and maximize shine, apply under gloss or over your usual lipstick" "apply every morning before makeup or every night (for 15 days)" and "begin application at the center of the lips and sweep outward to the corners of the mouth and wipe the applicator clean after each use"

That's all for today, I'm going to update this post in 15 days so stay tuned! :)

Ciao a tutti! Oggi voglio condividere con voi qualcosa di molto interessante. Sto parlando di lip plumper,  (in italiano penso sia tipo gonfia labbra? non saprei, suona malissimo ><) comunque, i lip plumper sono un particolare tipo di lucidalabbra che stimolano e volumizzano le labbra grazie alla loro formula ricca di collagene. Inoltre, ridefiniscono il contorno delle labbra giorno dopo giorno donando una sensazione di freschezza e piacere.

In questo caso, quello di cui voglio parlarvi è il lip plumper della DIOR, chiamato "lip maximizer" nella tonalità 001 (pink) onestamente non so se esistono altre tonalità visto che mi è stato regalato ma a mio parere sarebbe abbastanza inutile visto che non ha colore sulle labbra, è trasparente. Vi ho già menzionato questo prodotto nei post "march beauty favorites" e "Christmas Wishlist". Sullo scatolino c'è scritto "l'accessorio di bellezza indispensabile per labbra carnose firmate Dior" e suggerisce di utilizzarlo per 15 giorni per avere dei risultati, purtroppo non sono ancora riuscita ad essere costante.. ma  ho deciso di aggiornare questo post tra 15 giorni per vedere se effettivamente funziona. Quello che posso dire per ora è che noto un effettivo miglioramento per quanto riguarda il contorno delle labbra ed è molto idratante.. ma questo è tutto, nessuna differenza di volume, come potete ben vedere dalle foto. Appena applicato pizzica ed ha un odore simile a quello del dentifricio ma è abbasstanza piacevole. La confezione è molto elegante, con il tipico tappo Dior che rimane ben chiuso senza doverci preoccupare che il gloss possa fuoriuscire sporcando e rendendo tutto appiccicoso, ma la confezione in se è abbastanza delicata, l'applicatore è molto piccolo e morbido e inoltre nello scatolino escono le istruzioni o meglio "suggerimenti" in tutte le lingue in cui appunto suggeriscono: "per amplificare il volume ed esaltare la brillantezza applicare sotto un gloss o sopra un rossetto", "applicarlo quotidianamente al mattino prima di truccarsi o in alternativa la sera" e "applicare partendo dal centro delle labbra verso i lati e asciugare l'applicatore dopo l'utilizzo"

Questo è tutto per oggi, tra 15 giorni aggiornerò questo post :)

A presto! ♥ non dimenticate di seguirmi anche su facebook!

・March Beauty Favorites

Hello everyone!! OMG It's already Spring can you believe it? Time has gone so fast ><

First of all I'd like to thank you all for my 300+ followers on GFC, 

It's not a lot but I'm really happy about it! ♡♡

Anyway, this is my first -month- favorites post so I'm really excited and I really hope you're going to enjoy it!

so.. These are some beauty  products I’ve been using lately and absolutely loving.

Essence Stay All Day 16h foundation

I barely use foundation because I really have nothing much to cover on my face so I prefer to avoid it, but when I do I like to use my MAC studio tech foundation in NC25 which is a shade similar to my skin, while, when I want to try something different, since I'm really pale as you can see, I like to use this one, the Stay All Day 16h Long-lasting foundation by essence in (30) soft Sand. A quite dark shade (I'm going to make a better review of it on my next post) to be honest at first I thought this shade was going to be too dark for me so I would have ended by looking like a Ganguro (if you don't know what I'm talking about just look at this) or someone from the Jersey shore..(look at this) but I was really surprised to find that this foundation just make me look alive, lol so it's perfect, it has a really good coverage and doesn't dry out my skin, also I love the "tanned" look it gives to me.

Estée Lauder 'Sumptuous Extreme' Lash Multiplying Volume Mascara

Can you remember this? It's still my favorite mascara!

I always love to try different kind of mascara and you can find some really good in any drugstore, like those from maybelline or rimmel,  with really good prices, but for me.. I've fallen in love for this one! It's just amazing, makes my lashes super long and curved! (even if, as I've said before it's not that volumizing)  you can find a better review here.

MAC Viva Glam Rihanna Lipstick

I don't usually love to wear "frosty" lipsticks I'm not a big fan of them but this one it's absolutely gorgeous! Especially if you have blue eyes, this one is going to make your eyes pop! And guess what?! Every cent of the selling price of VIVA GLAM goes toward helping women, men and children living with and affected by HIV/AIDS so it's also for a worthy cause. I'm absolutely in love with it, it's a dark red, the best one I've ever tried. I was afraid it was going to be  dry.. but MAC never fails to impress me, it's super soft and creamy :) It's a limited edition so if you want to get it, go get it now! (I'm going to make a better review soon)

Dior Lip Maximizer

This one was on my Christmas Wishlist, (here) I wanted to get it so bad! I love some bold sexy lips.

This gloss it's enriched with a collagen activ formula which gives volume and redefine the contour of your lips. When applied, it gives a fresh and  itchy sensation on your lips but it's not annoying. They say it works better after 15 days of application, but since I'm too lazy I only apply it when I feel to..and I can say I see some little differences. (This one needs a better review as well)

Urban Decay Naked3

This palette was on my Christmas wishlist as well, every shade of this palette is just WOW! It comes with some samples of primer but i still haven't tried them. Dust it's my favorite shade, a pale shimmery pink, but also, it has some gorgeous metallics and deep black with red micro glitter. It's paraben and sulfates FREE. This one, with the naked2, are my favorite palettes ever!

What else? I think it's absolutely a must-have!
