The Dior Lip Oil is genuinely good
Sigh, I hate when products go viral. Mostly because, I have this thing about not wanting to appear to be just going with the crowd. But I have to admit, the Dior Lip Oil is popular for a reason. As someone who is perpetually on the hunt for products for my perpetually dry lips, I…

Dior is expanding its fragrance offering to include babies, or rather their parents. Their Bonne Etoile offering will be a fragrant mist/scent water mean to be sprayed in the air and on fabrics, not directly onto your child. The fragrance bottles offer the same scent in two different colors, possibly making them a luxurious gift…

I liked Miss Dior more than I thought I would
