Dolce & Gabbana Ultra classic cream lipstick review

Lipstick: c/o Dolce GabbanaUltraclassic cream lipstick

Dolce Gabbana’s new “Ultra” color in their classic cream lipstick collection is dark and mysterious. This deep, dark red lipstick is on-trend for the winter months and balances out the season’s heavy prints, textures and necklines. The dark hue from Dolce Gabbana’s “Ultra” classic cream lipstick is also a great way to add color to the season’s hot neutral palette which includes shades of white, cream, pale beige and light tans.

Dolce Gabbana’s “Ultra” classic cream lipstick is a heavy cream lipstick which works well when paired with a lip-liner (I would use Dolce Gabbana’sUltra lip-liner to match!) to prevent running. The color saturation is deep and long-lasting. I also found Dolce Gabbana’s “Ultra” classic cream lipstick to be moisturizing. Love that!

Dolce Gabbana’s “Ultra” classic cream lipstick is priced at $37 and can be found online here.


Dolce & Gabbana Nude nail polish review

Nail Polish c/o Dolce Gabbana “Nude”  one base coat, two coats of color. No top coat.

Dolce Gabbana “Nude” nail polish is a pale, peachy color which is the perfect alternative to naturally nude nails. In the current world of fashion; prints, textures and competing colors are all the rage. Due to this fact, it can be challenging to find the right nail color to take you from the office to dinner to a special event. In fact, it can be challenging to find a nail color which works with every outfit you wear for an entire week!

Thankfully Dolce Gabbana’s “Nude” nail polish is the perfect, classic answer to the nail color dilemma. The pale nude hue matches every color and print imaginable. The soft color is close to the shade of natural nails; making Dolce Gabbana “Nude” the perfect alternative to wearing nothing on your nails at all! I always say, you never look finished or polished unless your nails are done, so Dolce Gabbana “Nude” is the perfect way to have natural yet finished nails. Love it!

I love the shine and peachy hue of Dolce Gabbana’s “Nude” nail polish. I know this nail polish will be perfect for travelling (since no-one wants to fiddle with changing their nail color while on vacation or a work trip!) and it will also be perfect for the resort season. Nude nails look amazing with a tan! Now all I need is an actual resort vacation for the fashion season. 😉

Dolce Gabbana “Nude” nail polish is priced at $24 and can be found online here and here.
