To be blunt, don’t spend $45 on this lipstick. The Dior Addict Lipstick in 716 Dior Cannage is a beautiful color with a great shine and is very comfortable to wear but it just doesn’t last. I’m talking about 2 hours before it needs to be touched up.

Dior is claiming 6 hours of wear and shine, which I have not experienced since I started testing this back in October. However, since the brand only used a sample size of 25 people** to determine this, I shouldn’t be so surprised that the claim seems off the mark. I drink water and tea all day, so I do put lipsticks through a lot, but I can get 4 hours of decent wear out of my favorite formulas before feeling the need for a touch-up. On the upside, I do like the amount of pigment and the fact that it feels like a balm is great for my dry lips.

Short and sweet today. There just isn’t much else to say about this lipstick. I have some favorites that are all under $30 (Huda Beauty, Propa Beauty, Maybelline, Revlon), so for this to be so expensive and not last on me is disappointing. For those that are still curious about the formula, there are some swatches of the range below. If you are in need of a pigmented, comfortable, shiny lipstick and you don’t care how much you have to reapply, this could still be work looking into for you.
