Diorskin Forever Compact Flawless Perfection Fusion Wear Makeup SPF 25 Review

Price: $49

Size: 0.35 oz

Rating: 1/5

This week I tried the Diorskin Forever Compact Flawless Perfection Fusion Wear Makeup SPF 25 in Medium Beige. I liked the fact that this foundation has a built in spf which is perfect for my lazy days (usually always) when I skip applying sunscreen because of the hate of the smell and the oily feeling I get when applied. 

I had such high expectations with this foundation due to the fact that it was Dior but this did not sit right with my skin. It applied very patchy and did not meld into the skin like my MAKE UP FOR EVER Duo Mat Powder Foundation. The makeup accentuated dry patches that I did not realize I even had Also the color match was a little off for my medium yellow skin tone. The colors were more on the neutral to pink undertone range.

Overall, this foundation did not work for me and with the price tag, I was expecting something fantastic which Dior did not deliver this time. 

Recent Hauls for Spring!

Here are some of the recent deals and finds I have purchased for this Spring Season:

Forever 21 Metal Bow Belt ($4.80) Sold Out but found last one in stores
The bow belt does not look cheap and is well made for its price
reminds me a bit of Kate Spade products

Daily Look Chic Little Bow Bracelet ($11 after coupons  & discount)
The bracelet was really sturdy & bendable with a shiny metal
but with my really tiny wrists, it was hard to make it work

Gap Stripped Knit Moto Jacket  ($31.50 after the 30% off Gap Sales) Sold out
Stipes can be a bit wow on this sweater jacket but it will be a good statement piece

Gap Ultra Skinny Pants in Bird of Paradise ($21.50 after the Gap 30% Sale)
Feels very cozy & a bit suedy, the fit is very skinny & form fitting

Forever 21 Stacked Chevron Necklace ($4.80)
necklace does not look cheap but very sturdy

Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream ($7.99 at Marshalls)
This Cream does wonders for any dry skin or lips

Dior Addict Extreme Lipstick in Riviera ($31)
Moisturizing balm like lipstick with highly pigmented color

All in all, spring shopping is really fun and with great finds it becomes even a better experience. Happy Shopping! :)

Dior Addict Extreme (Riveira) & Givenchy Rouge Interdit Satin Lipstick (Tempting Coral) Review

I have been falling for the coral hype that has been going on for a year now. (I know I'm a bit late, but better late than never!) Let's say I accidentally pressed the checkout button on Sephora's website and ended up with Dior Addict Extreme in Riveira and Givenchy Rouge Interdit Satin Lipstick in Tempting Coral. These two colors were very similar in shade range but differ in many aspects. 

Dior Addict Extreme (Riveira)

Riviera

Riviera was a shiny without glitter lipstick. It was more on the orangey pink side which I considered a real coral. Like the Black Tie Color I tried before, Dior does not disappoint with its quality and moisturizing properties. Riveira enhanced the color of my lips and gives it a sheer pop of coral. There is no settling into lines of the lips which you get from thicker texture lipsticks.

Givenchy Rouge Interdit Satin Lipstick (Tempting Coral)

Top - Riveira
Bottom- Tempting Coral

Tempting Coral is really similar in color to Riviera but it leans on the pink side. This lipstick has a glittery sheen and a thicker texture like normal lipsticks but the product still maintained a bit of moisture. I did not like the crayon smell that it came with and when applied on the heavier side, this product may settle into lip lines. The color was a very good everyday color and less orange than Riveira.

Dior Addict Extreme Lipstick (Black Tie 987)

The search for the best lip tint/ moisturizing lipstick continues with Dior Addict Extreme Lipstick. I really like this lipstick, I chose (Black Tie 987) was I would say "extreme" which is great for a pop of color. I can not put too much of this on or the color would be too bold compared to what I am use to but this does give a good staining color for quite an amount of time. Once you start eating, the color does come off. The color was a deep plum and red which is a really rich and classic color. Putting too much on does make you look vampire like. Twilight is not the look i'm going for but the color payoff of this lipstick gives a wow effect. I will definitely try this lipstick again in another color. 

The texture was really moisturizing when first applied but then has a drier affect after a few minutes. IT does not dry out my lips like usual lipsticks would. The color may settle into the cracks or accentuate any imperfections on your lips when applying a sheer layer due to the high pigmentation but this is not a problem when applied normally or on the heavier side

Dior Diorshow Mascara

I have tried the Dior Diorshow Mascara which did not meet my expectations. I thought this mascara would be a lot better than most other ones that I have tried, but it smeared all over my bottom lashes and made my panda eyes even more noticeable. This mascara started working a lot better when it started drying up and the formula was less runny which I preferred. All in all, this is a decent product but not worth the $25 dollar price tag that comes with it.
