Wearing lipstick has the same effect on me as wearing the perfect pair of

 heels. Every shade brings out a different side to my personality, I walk taller, more confidently, I feel like I really have it together.

Red lips are powerful, strong, striking and intoxicating and when a woman (or man for that matter) wears it she feels all of it’s magic engulf her as if its slowly seeping into her veins, becoming part of her, from the very moment it touches her lips.

With this years launch of the cooler, sexier, more reckless Rouge Dior, I decided to go in search of my perfect ultra-matte, shade of red. 999 Matte is the classic crimson trademark of true Dior, which sits classically cool against warm Sun kissed skin and beach bleached highlights.

But there’s now a Legendary Red shade for everyone, which means choosing the perfect tone, finish and identity is now possible with all the added benefits of the unique House of Dior formulation.

884 Trafalgar, 872 Victoire, 999, 644 Sydney & 743 Rouge Zinnia encapsulate the Couture identity of the Iconic Rouge Dior collection.

When choosing your shade play close attention to the lipstick that enhances your natural colouring and doesn’t wash-out skin tone or eye colour. It is also advised to darken but not over shadow or colour your eye makeup when wearing red lips. Opt for a smokey sultry eye with nude tones to really allow your Couture shade to demand attention.

Available nationwide from 1st September 2016.
