I really love the tingly feeling you get when you apply this product! I won't say I need a lip maximizer for my lips are quite full and I have no wrinkles or lines around my mouth just yet but I am addicted to the feeling of this lip gloss on my lips :) It also gives a nice sheer glow to your lips.

The good news is that, yes, it really does work to plump up lips within the contours of your own natural lip line. Lips are temporarily fuller and more smooth. I loved the way this gloss made my lips look and felt! I gave the product one lippy, though, because...
The bad news is that by the next morning Dior Addict Lip Maximizer gave me an awful, scaly, pebbly-textured rash all over my mouth that burns and feels terrible. Four days later is has hardly changed. I'm just slathering vitamin e oil on my lips while I decide whether it's going to heal up by itself or I'll have to see a dermatologist. So sad.

I don't know why I bought this as I have pretty full lips already but I'm a beauty junkie so I guess that's why. Anyway, I'm quite happy with it as it has a nice color and leaves the lips looking really delicious!

I got this lip gloss as a present and although I have been curious about it for years, I never was that curious to shell out the cash for it.
I have natural full lips, not incredibly disproportionate but full and luscious with a nice shape so I naturally like to draw attention to them. This lip gloss does what I ultimately love about a gloss, the transparent lacquered finish that I fell in love with when Jean Paul Gaultier launched its roll-on lip gloss for men (before I realized that makeup really has no gender, women are just more ballsy to buy it anyway) and eventually I switched to the Shiseido Stick Gloss (sadly discontinued), the MAC clear gloss, etc etc, you get the gist of my obsession with a crystal clear, no shimmer, no glitter, no pigment gloss.
This Dior has a rosy tint to it, but adds no pigment to my already rosy lips, applied with its sponge applicator and layered on top, it gives my lips that wet lacquered shine that I adore, but I don't see any added volume or oomph to my lips (in a way, it's a good thing, while I love the their natural lusciousness, I wouldn't want them any bigger) other than the optical illusion that a gloss finish adds to any surface it is applied to.
I do believe that the menthol fragrance is also there to slightly irritate and plump your lips and the scent kinda sorta gets on my nerves because it goes directly into my nostrils and sometimes annoys me, if you do like a mint fragrance, you will love this lip gloss.
Did I enjoy this product, well, yes of course I did, do I think there are cheaper products that will do exactly the same thing without the mint fragrance and slight tingly feeling on my lips? Absolutely, although I do think it's better than MUFE's clear lip gloss that while I love the finish, always ends up irritating my lips.

I have used this once as my mum bought it but I instantly saw my lips become plump, my family including the boys could notice that they looked much bigger. The gloss is shiny but makes lips look soft. It tingles for a bit but goes away quickly and is quite minty. My mum loves the product and makes her lips plump and thicker but natural looking and the clear slightly pink colour works with anything.

It should plump your lips, but I did not see that with mine. What I ike about the gloss is that it is more a nice glow, without the glitter effect. And it makes you feel like your lips plum (but they dont) ;) Nice packaging and nice smell of soft mint. I like it. It also stays for a long time.

This is a very good lip gloss. It really does seem to shape and plump lips, and it keeps them moist and lasts a pretty long time without being sticky. What more could you want?

I've used this for a week now. It was bought by my mum but she doesn't use lip gloss much so i stashed it for my own use! The colour is a sheer milky pink that's barely visible on my lips. It has a tingling minty sensation that feels nice sometimes.. but there was once I might have put on too much and it felt abit like i had eaten very spicy food..you know..that kinda sensation. The texture feels nice, not sticky at all and really smooth. It is pretty moisturizing with a High-shine look and i think it enhances my natural lip colour. It costs a bomb but since it looks like it's gonna last awhile.. I guess i might repurchase. I apply this on nude lips and on days i want to apply lipstick, i put on a thin layer before my lipstick and it looks fab. If i didn't have this on before my lipstick, it would look chapped and flaky. This helps with that cause of how moisturizing it is. Oh yea, It smells like minty vanilla which is a plus for me cause i like that.

This lipgloss does not my lips bigger, as the producer promises. I feel that my lips swell up a little bit but when i look in the mirror, i see no effect. However, it feels good on the lips, the scent is nice and the package feels like always when it comes to Dior very luxurious.
Got my as a gift from my husband last Christmas but I will not buy it when it runs out.

I bought this not expecting much. It tingles on the lips, so it makes me think it's pouting up my lips, not sure what it's really doing besides tingling it. LOL! I use it was a lip gloss instead now. It's pinkish hue adds a little shine, and it's not a tacky light pink, so I use it. I don't think it's what it claims to be though, a lip maximizer.

This is a really nice lip gloss but if you are looking for a lip plumper you should skip this one. This gloss is a nice creamy, sheer light pink with a minty smell and slight tingle. As far as the maximizing effect, I saw none of that. I really like it a quick clear gloss I can quickly swipe on when I am doing a natural look. It is far too expensive for what it is, but I really do like it. I'm sure you can find a similar product for a cheaper price.

Initially, I was going to give this lip gloss a 5- I love how it felt on and loved how it looked. As time went on though, after about a month of use, I found that it started to smell kind of like it was going bad. Figuring it was time to toss it and get a new one, I did just that. Again, a month later it starts to smell weird. So if you want to spend some big bucks for a lip gloss that will give you a really good month or so before getting funky- go for this one. If you are looking for something that lasts longer and doesn't turn on you try Chanel, Givenchy, Guerlain, or actually, some of the other Dior glosses - but not this one. I

Love this. It's hydrating and feels good on my lips. Not too sticky. Nice sheer pink shine. I'm on my second tube.

I just have to say that I love this product. Although I find it doesn't sit well under lipstick, it makes my lipgloss last longer and go on smoother. I love the way it feels too. It doesn't burn or iritate my lips and I can use it alone as a nice clear lipgloss. LOVE IT!!!

This product doesn't state a certain "color", but it looks like a very very sheer barely there pinkish, mostly high-shine look. The insert reads: "An incredible volume effect immediately when it is applied. It's unique collagen-enriched formula leaves your lips looking plumped in an instant. Gives your lips a fresh sensation and unique sense of pleasure from the very first application. Lips that look transformed in just 15 days. Your lips feel rehydrated and restructured. Your lip contour is redefined day after day for a mouth that looks plumped up and ultra-sexy". It also says to use as a treatment, apply on it's own every morning before makeup or every evening. I just bought this, so I'll definitely have to add an update in "15 days". LOL! To me, it's just a nice, light, high-gloss YLBB look, and it does feel nice on, and doesn't have any sort of offensive taste to it. It's almost barely minty. I love it so far!
