I wanted to start a little series, so this is my first 'Three From:' post, where I'll be showing you three of my favourite products from different brands. I'm the most indecisive person in the world so picking just three is going to be hard! Up this week is Dior.
1. Dior Diorshow Extase Instant Oversize Volume Mascara (£23/10ml) This definitely wins the award for having the most unnecessarily long product name! My very first high end mascara, when I was about 14, was the classic Diorshow and I treasured it. I hadn't used a Dior mascara for quite a few years until I received this for Christmas and it's become a firm staple in my makeup bag. It thickens and lengthens my lashes really well but I find even a couple of coats still looks subtle enough for daytime. It doesn't clump, flake, or dry out my lashes like so many mascaras I've tried (I'm looking at you, Benefit They're Real...) and I find the wand a good size for my lashes. As well as the obligatory black and brown versions, it also comes in Plum, which I'm dying to try!

2. Dior Addict Lip Gloss in 453 Dolly Pink (£22/6.3ml) There is something about Dior lipglosses that make me feel especially princessy - the combination of the packaging, the brush like applicator and the shimmery formula make for possibly the most girly lip product ever. This is my favourite shade for just that reason, it's just so pink and shiny! I find these lip glosses really comfortable to wear, they're not sticky in the slightest, they sit well on the lips, and they're long lasting. I love wearing this over nude pink lipsticks like Mac Angel, but it looks lovely on it's own aswell.
3. Dior Addict Lip Glow (£22.50/3.5g) This is basically just a tinted lip balm. But what a lip balm! Again the packaging is gorgeous (I am such a makeup magpie!). This glides on to my lips really smoothly and leaves them feeling softer and plumper. Dior market this as a 'made-to-measure' lip balm, it reacts with the chemistry of your lips to enhance their natural colour, and I really like the colour it shows up on me. It also has a faint minty scent which I adore. I love throwing this on when I don't have much time to do my makeup and knowing it'll keep my lips glossy and moisturised.
