The innovative colour‑enhancing and ultra‑moisturising Dior Addict Lip Glow now comes in 20 vivid and exciting shades
As cosmetic formulations evolve to meet demands for efficacy, inclusivity and sustainability, long‑standing cult favourites are getting an upgrade. Take the iconic Dior Addict Lip Glow tinted lip balm, a pioneer in pH‑reactive technology now reimagined with a newly revamped formula.
Peter Philips, the creative and image director for Dior Makeup, shares that the original colour palette of 20 cool tones is now enriched with additional new warm undertones, offering a different way to emphasise the natural colour of all lips. “After years of research and experimenting, we’re proud to say we cracked the code. We’re now able to offer warm as well as cold shades that enhance the natural pH of your lips. This range of shades is timeless, caring and yummy,” he says.
In essence, the Dior Addict Lip Glow is not like the other lip balms you have stashed in your make‑up pouch. Beyond simply soothing dry, flaky patches, it delivers a luscious, custom colour that enhances your natural lip tone, offering a personalised and one‑of‑a‑kind touch to your make‑up look.

SWIPE AND GO
Since its first release in 2009, the Dior Addict Lip Glow has maintained its formulation comprising 97 per cent natural‑origin ingredients. Combining nature and science, it now comes enriched with an innovative Moisture Lock technology powered by cherry oil, which is rich in essential fatty acids and vitamin E. Forming a protective film over the lips, it works to lock in hydration deep within the epidermis—the skin’s outermost layer—strengthening the skin’s natural barrier and minimising moisture loss. The balm is further fortified by the regenerating properties of shea butter as well as the nourishing benefits of sunflower and rice waxes, offering a holistic solution for improving lip texture while helping to maintain optimal lip health.
The promise is that with a single swipe, this balm delivers a 48‑hour hydration boost and an eight‑hour smoothing effect, ensuring that your lips remain soft and comfortable all day and night. It also leaves your pout looking fuller and plumper, with less visible fine lines.

FRESH LOOK
Thanks to a revolutionary Color Reviver technology, the Dior Addict Lip Glow adapts to the unique pH of your lips, so that when worn, the hue transforms into a custom shade that enhances your natural beauty with just the right amount of colour and subtle shine. Dior has now upped the game with the latest iteration, which sees eosin introduced into its formula for the first time.
Known for its colour‑adaptive properties, eosin augments the original palette of cool‑toned shades—such as fresh pinks and vivid raspberries—with a spectrum of warm undertones, culminating in a refreshed selection of hues that caters to both warm and cool skin tones. By balancing cool and warm undertones, Dior ensures that the updated range of 20 rich, universal colours complements and adapts seamlessly to all natural lip colours. From luminous nudes to soft peaches and vibrant corals, each hue delivers a glow‑up that is unique to its wearer, elevating both the collection and one’s make‑up look.

THE NEW SIGNATURE SHADES
While no one will fault you for reaching for cult hues such as 001 Pink or the versatile 000 Universal Clear, the updated range of colours do present fresh shades set to be new faves. Think 006 Berry, a cool and intense plum shade, and 077 Candy, a shimmering warm pink shade. Philips also concocted two limited‑edition pastel shades: 078 Icy Blue, a frosted glacier blue infused with silver iridescence that turns pink on the lips, creating a soft and subtle glow; and 203 Citrus, a lemon yellow sorbet that changes into coral pink when worn.

A TOUCH OF COUTURE
To celebrate the launch of the revamped Dior Addict Lip Glow, the beauty must‑have now comes in a new couture‑inspired case in transparent pink lacquer. Adorned with the iconic Dior Oblique logo in a contrasting metallic silver hue, it istopped by a silver‑toned pearl—the bijou symbol of the Dior Addict line—that comes engraved with the brand’s signature “CD” initials. This detail is also engraved into the top of the bullet for the first time.
LOVED BY MUSES
The campaign film shot by director Valentin Herfray—along with the stills lensed by photographer Dan Beleiu—captures three of Dior’s muses, Jisoo, Willow Smith and Anya Taylor‑Joy, all wearing the Dior Addict Lip Glow, in an audacious world that is both contemporary and dreamlike. Showcasing the new shades, Taylor‑Joy reveals the transformative power of colour as her lips shift from pink to coral. Jisoo, meanwhile, is pictured in a world of soft, tinted bubbles that serve to highlight the balm’s ultra‑moisturising texture. Smith, on the other hand, shown softly dressing her lips with the balm, demonstrates its subtle glow
