I've had this lip gloss for probably over 1.5 years now and even at this point in time, in no danger of running out. I swear this stuff lasts years, even if it is used frequently. First off I have to say that this is by far my favorite lip gloss brand, type, and shade. My absolute fav! Like many of the reviewers have stated before, the name is very misleading and does a very poor job of representing this shade. This is a solid coral and pink blend with very fine shimmer. In my opinion, more so pink than coral but it's simply the best combination of the two I've seen in any brand. Usually other brands' coral-pink shades are too coral and not enough pink. I believe you can almost wear this for any occasion; casual if used a very small amount with a lip brush or going out look used heavily. This gloss is pretty heavy in consistency so I use this very lightly and it just gives me the hint of color that I always love. But, the best and I mean the absolute best thing about this line by Dior is the fact that is it not sticky, at all! I've searched far and wide for a lip gloss that is not sticky because I absolutely despise the hair-stuck-on-my-lips look. I really have no idea why so many people prefer Chanel over Dior because I've tried Chanel's glosses and they are extremely sticky. Yuck!! I can't believe they charge so much for such a cheap quality gloss. Almost every brand I've tried (Lancome, MAC, Chanel, etc) even the high-end ones never could surpass the greatness that is Dior glosses. I've strayed from time to time but always come back to Dior. Yes, they are pricey I must admit, but after paying for glosses that are only a few buck cheaper which always end up in the trash or a box, I'll now only buy Dior glosses because they really are a great investment and last very long. I'm really interested in the reformulated version of this color and many others in their new Dior Addict Ultra Gloss Reflect with their brush applicators. I hope they are just as good, if not better because I won't be able to find this formulation anymore.

I love this lipgloss! It's not sticky at all and I super love the color! The fact that it's long lasting and do not dry my lips do not hurt either. Despite the steep price, I would love to purchase it again.

This is a great lip gloss! I love the packaging. The gloss has a nice texture, not sticky at all. The color is beautiful but I just put a tiny bit on since too much makes me look weird. Since I don't need to use that much, I doubt I'll be running out anytime soon. I'd definitley repurchase even though it's pretty expensive.

Loveee this color. Combined with the Mary Kay "dusty pink" liner, it's just the perfect spring color.

Beautiful. I'm very impressed. I was a little scared dropping this much $$ on a gloss but it's worth every penny. They should probably change the name since there's no wine in sight. It's a fresh pretty pink. Perfect for spring. In the tube it looks like Blossom by Goldie but on the lips it's much more brighter/pinker/gorgeous. No tastes. A light perfume smell. Isn't too sticky, isn't too slippery. It's the perfect balance.

such a perfect shade for me! by no means completely natural, and as pale as I am I wouldn't wear this every day, but when I do wear it I feel like I belong on a runway :) the smell is fruity and a little grape-y(maybe trying to relate to the name?) and I love it. the price is the only drawback, and even as such I don't regret paying as much as I did!

the only reason i gave this review a 4 instead of a 5 is the taste. it has a very chemical, manufactured taste.. but it looks great! this color has a certain sheen that makes your lips look fuller. perfect color! next i'm going to try relish of berries, as those are the only two shades that seem to fit my skin tone. packaging is also aesthetically pleasing. :)

Love the Dior glosses, how can you resist the packaging & sophisticated wearablity?! Reviewers before me have so accurately described the color. It's definitely not wine, but a perfect coral.

Blush of Wine isn't really a wine colour, but rather a robust rosy coral. Just perfect for summer time and a new staple in my makeup bag. I love this colour. :)

Argggggg!!!! I am frustrated!!!!! I put a perfect review for this, but I have to change my mind. As I said in the previous review, this is one of the best l/g shade on the market. Name is definitely misleading, it has NO wine at all, just a coral- peachy - pinky wet finish looking l/g, it even looks great on my GGG bronzey skintone. I took two lippes off, because of the nasty rosey scent and the texture that only lasts for 10 to 15 minutes!!! I brought these because of the gorgeous packaging! Argggg, sorry, I don't what to say, but won't repurchase.

I love Dior Addict ultra gloss. It is less sticky than other brands that i've tried. And the colors... they are so sophisticated. This one in particular is very sexy and not too girly, but it does make you look younger, really. And it suits a lot of skin tones, ages and looks. Very easy. I am addicted to Dior's glosses.

I love Dior's ultra gloss series. I love shades of deep pinks, and corals as they bring out the natural redness of my lips best =D They are very glossy, but not with rough sparkles..the colors are so refine, and the gloss is not sticky at all. The only bad thing about this gloss is that after it is 1/2 done, u can't get the rest of the gloss from the very bottom of the tube, or at the top of the tube...so i guess it's a waste there for $26 CDN after tax

i was looking for a baby pink and peach addict gloss that don't wash me out..but the SA showed me newly arrived limited edition stuff, including this l/g..OH WOW, it's a gorgeous peachy coral pink. the colour's just right, it may look bright in the tube but it's not that bright at all on my lips..not too light also. the name can be deceiving, a blush of wine?!! i don't see where the wine come from. anyways, it's such a beautiful l/g that will look good on mostly everyone. a must have for dior fans :)

This is supposed to be exclusive to Sephora, but I've seen it at 2 other stores. The name is deceiving - this more of a pinky coral -nice for summer and the color will flatter a lot of skin tones. You get a lot in the tube, so it will last a while, but pricey for $23.00 and there is a definite perfumey taste. If I'm in the mood to splurge on lip glosses again, I would go back to Chanel Glossimers. No taste and they stay on better.

I have no idea why this gloss has the word 'wine' in its name, as it is definitely a peachy-pinky-coral shade, and not wine-coloured at all. However, it is gorgeous and rather unique and I'm extemely pleased with it. Dior glosses rock. I bought mine at Dillards, so I'm not sure why Sephora claims it as an exclusive.

Finally, Dior has a "coral" toned ultra gloss. This is exactly what I have waiting for - probably one of the prettiest glosses I have purchased EVER!

Description: a mid-toned peachy-pink-coral with loads of shimmer -not glitter, not frost, just gorgeous drop dead shimmer. It's similar in color to MAC's Tartlette, but so much better. It's not as sticky as MAC's glosses, and it has just a hint more pink and it's not frosty like Tartlette. I also like that it is pigmented enough for us ladies that cannot wear the lighter colors without liners or lipsticks.

Dior has nothing else like this one, it is a must have. Will look beautiful with a tan this summer. I am just in love.I purchased at Sephora and according to their website, it's a Sephora exclusive.Oh, just so lovely.
