Glitter in cosmetics can go two ways - either flattering or tacky. Lucky for us, Dior makes choosing the perfect pocket companion a breeze. Mess-free and beginner friendly, bid goodbye to glitter fall-out and that icky rough surface. The Rouge Dior Forever Liquid Sequin applies on as a stunning solid shade, but quickly unveils an impeccable sparkly finish that can render anyone speechless when you press your lips together once dry. Comfortable and lightweight, the liquid sequin also offers a transfer-proof and long wear formula that eliminates the need for reapplication. Available in 4 equally gorgeous shades, they each come with a unique blend of glitter pigments which best complements its stain.
