When it comes to make-up looks, I must admit, I’m a creature of habit. A natural-looking , some soft contour, lashings of and a are my go-tos. Sure, I might make some subtle changes in shades depending on the season, but for the most part, I'm a natural base, nude lip person.

This means, in the past, my go to festive make-up look hasn't looked all that different from my regular night out make-up. However, this year is set to be different as I have found most perfect festive lipstick shades—and they’re so good, even I've converted into a veritable make-up magpie for them. I am, of course, talking about which you’ve probably seen popping up all over your instagram and TIkTok feed in recent months.



A limited-edition reimagining of the brand's traditional , the sequin version takes things one sparkly step further. Applied like a normal colour, they set to a matte finish. Then, in what can only be described as make-up wizardy, on pressing your lips together they transform into the prettiest of sequin-like glittery finishes.

After watching this happen in front of my eyes all over social media, I knew I had to try it for myself—and that's where the love affair began...

While there are 10 shades available, from soft nudes to festive reds (and even a black), I was lucky enough to get my hands on three of the sequin lip colours to put them to the test. The first thing I noticed was the packaging. Featuring Dior’s signature quilted design in silver and gold, they feel elevat.
