Well, I really wasn't planning on getting anything using Sephora's15% off coupon but....sometimes things don't go according to the plan! I had been eying and having dreams about two products for quite some time now. I thought buying them with a discount will ease the pain so I went ahead and ordered from Sephora.com. I placed many orders from Sephora's website and never received my order in 2 days before, very impressive Sephora! I'm reviewing only one of the products today, I will be reviewing the other one later today or tomorrow if I get a chance :)
YSL ROUGE VOLUPTÉ 13 - PEACH PASSION
All I have to say about this is...WOW! I'm so sooo impressed with it. As you may have guessed this is my first YSL lipstick (or product for that matter) so probably that's why I'm overreacting. After all it's only a lipstick. I have been wanting Peach Passion for ages and finally I was able to get my hands on it!
What do I think about...
Packaging: It is absolutely to die for. It's really all about glamor. It's shiny, gold and so luxurious, as if it's not only a lipstick but an accessory. The color reveals itself with carved YSL logo across the center of the case in such an elegant way! I think that color comes pretty close to the actual color of the product. An added bonus; it has a cute little mirror right on cap!
Color: Vibrant pinky coral peach. It has quite the opacity!
Formula: Silky smooth and creamy. Highly pigmented. Stays on for a very long time, at least it does in my case. I did notice a bit of flaking but easily solved that problem by exfoliating lips and adding lip balm beforehand (which I do with almost all of my lipsticks anyway)
Scent: Sweet fruity scent which is okay. I prefer MAC lipsticks' subtle vanilla scent though.
Price: $34.00 at Sephora.

I really can't find anything not likable about this lipstick. If I absolutely had to change one thing about it...hmmm, I guess I would change the scent and leave everything else the same!
What do you guys think about YSL lipsticks?
Hope everyone is having a great Monday! <3

ReplyDeleteThat color is gorgeous and I love the packaging! I hate to spend $34 on a lipstick but I may have to give in on this one!
ReplyDeleteyes yes, I need this shade :D xx
ReplyDelete@ Rai, :) it really is lovely!
ReplyDelete@ Mary, of course nothing tops MAC lippies, but YSL does a good job too, gotta give them credit! I will do a swatch/look with this soon, hopefully.
@ Nea, I want to get #1 too, well if I could I would get them all but they are pricey, who knows maybe next I'll get that one :)
@ TKOmulatta, it is so glamorous, YSL did a great job with marketing, even if the product was bad, I am sure people would go out and buy this for the packaging :)
@ Kiku, I love it too!! :))
@ patukiii, I saw your shoes (I think you're talking about the ones you did a post on?) they are sooo cute! Maybe you should get this lipstick to match your shoes, why not! :)
@ Marie, thanks lady!
@ Cristina BarbieLuvsMac, you must get this color!! I almost think this will look better on blondes! :)
@ Hollywood, thanks Chloe :)
@ Ann, I knowww it really is insane to pay $34 for a lipstick and believe me I nearly had a heart attack as I was checking out lol but hey I don't spend $34 on this everyday, it's like a once in a while thing and it will last a long time :))
@ Muhsine, oh yes you (and everyone else) need this for sure! :))
