Dior Addict Ultra-Gloss Reflect in #247 Cotton Petal

Lately, I have been using Dior Addict Ultra-Gloss Reflect in 247 Cotton Petal that was from Dior's spring 2008 collection. This lip gloss is no longer available after Dior Addict Ultra-Gloss Reflect was revamped in spring 2010. The new range features 18 shades in nude, pearl and flash finishes.

I wasn't really impressed with the streaky application that the older version of Dior Addict Ultra-Gloss Reflect delivered. It had been left unused for the longest time. While I was organizing my cosmetics 2 weeks ago, I decided to use it again for the sake of its beautiful packaging. I have discovered a new appreciation for this lip gloss since then.

The older version of Dior Addict Ultra-Gloss Reflect in #247 Cotton Petal has a relatively thin, runny, yet silky smooth consistency. It goes on soft, weightless and non-sticky. The finish is sheer with a hint of subtle shimmer, uber glossy and ultra shiny. It makes my lips look poutier and fuller. The only downside is that the older version applies streaky. Thus, it looks best when applied on top of lipstick to avoid the streaky finish, and add highlight and dimension to the lips.

As the summer heat is approaching, Dior Addict Ultra-Gloss Reflect is a wonderful choice to wear on a hot day due to its light, non-sticky texture. I definitely would like to check out the new line of Dior Addict Ultra-Gloss Reflect soon!
