Dior color and shine jelly balm. It seems that I just can’t stay away from trying new products. I swear I went to the drugstore this morning it was to buy toothpaste. Then I walked by the makeup counter and well nothing good ever comes of that. When I start wandering around the product counters all I see is colour and the endorphins start flowing through my brain.
As much as I appreciate art, drawing definitely isn’t one of my specialties but I still love pencils and pastels and markers. This is probably why I get so excited when I see lipsticks and eyeshadow and nail polishes. Luckily, I’m much better at applying a lipstick than I am at drawing a picture.
Of course as soon as I saw the Dior Color & Shine Jelly Balm I couldn’t resist trying it and it became even more tempting when the salesgirl informed me that it’s a limited edition. I chose number 656 in Gaia, a soft pink with just a hint of sparkle. As much as I love bright colours for spring, sometimes a subtle shade works best. The lip pen is very hydrating and I found it easy to apply without using a mirror.
A whisper of pink on the lips makes for a perfect kiss!

Pretty!! My kind of lip color. Soft and barely there… 🙂
Aw, it’s so lovely! I don’t have any self restraint either.
I love the color, and it’s so good to know that it’s easy to apply without a mirror!
Ha! I wrote that especially for you. With all the traveling you do I thought it might come in handy!
That is such a lovely color, it looks like it would apply really smoothly and look very juicy.

Heehee I’m the same way. Go to a store to get one thing, but end up getting a whole bunch of other things. Story of my life. XD
I love trying new things also and these looks really great:)

Does it really have a texture like jelly? Or is it more like lipbalm?

Yeah, I think a lot of us can definitely empathize with your makeup counter endorphins. Haha !
Wish I could see how this color wears, but I guess I can make do with that adorably kissed envelope.
I couldn’t pick it up very well with my camera, it really is a hint of colour with a lot of shine!
Loving the jelly lip pen. Great color and looks luxurious. xoxo KJ

Wow, thats a beautiful coral lippy from Dior!
Dior makes some of my fave lipsticks!
Great colour choice, looks great. Those balm pens are becoming quite popular and as you said are so easy to apply. I have a similar one from Revlon.

I think that there are lots of great ones out there! I love how easy it is to apply and the fact that it also acts as a moisturizer.
Love your photos! What camera do you use?
Thanks! I use a Nikon D3100 but I have an upgraded lens from the kit.
Well, I have no talent when it comes to art, i can draw a mouse look like an elephant. So, i prefer the lipstick.
