Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Volupté Shine

What it is: An innovative and comforting lipstick enhanced with fruit extracts rich in vitamins and antioxidants that leave lips visibly softer and smoother with up to eight hours of hydration. What it does: Succumb to a unique sensorial experience with dazzling color, extreme comfort, and luminous shine. The luscious, hydrating texture glides on your lips leaving a lightweight aqua shine effect, while Back Injection Technology offers extreme comfort and pleasure upon application. This innovative lipstick is formulated to protect lips from free radicals and seal in moisture for up to eight hours of hydration. What else you need to know: Antioxidants in natural extracts of pomegranate and rosemary reduce the look of fine lines, while candellila resin forms a thin, protective layer to help lock in moisture and magnify color and shine. Mineral pigments provide bright, vibrant color and a melting formula (instead of a solid stick) enabling smoother glide-on application and an ultrafine lightweight film on lips. Hyaluronic acid spheres hydrate and soften lips to help seal in moisture for up to eight hours of hydration.

Smooth moisturizing application and smells good.
-05.19.13
Quick Take: moisturizing
Smells and feels great. This color is very sheer and mild so nice for daily use. Prob could get cheaper options for same color. I got it mainly because the packaging is gorgeous and needed a super moisturizing formula.

Great lipstick - really "off" color!
-05.18.13
Quick Take: moisturizing
I'm giving this five stars because the lipstick itself applies beautifully, but I purchased #11 Beige Instinct and it was very different than the color seemed to be on screen. It actually took color out of my lips rather than adding color to my lips!

You know its good cuz they ask you where you go it

Quick Take: long wearing, creamy, moisturizing, envyable
Saturday me and the gals set out to Sephora for the 15% off sale. I wanted a red or a color for my tan/mahogany skin. I'm about NW40 or Loreal TruMatch in N8.
I picked up #2 "Pourpre Intouchable" -a deep airy purple shade.
I already love YSL for their Gloss Stain and they didn't let me down with Volupte Shine. It doesn't matter where I go or what I'm doing I get compliments every time.
Wearing it how? I outlined with a darker purple lip pencil, filled with #2 and topped it with Smashbox Heatwave Enhancing Lipgloss in "Fushia Flash". As I walked around the store women -the toughest credits!, started asking me where I got what I had on because my lips looked like tasty soft delicious jelly beans. Say what?!
The color, the payoff, the moisture, the shine, EVERYTHING is top notch. I expect nothing less from YSL, especially with that dirty evil price tag!
I was really put off by the price, ITS EXPENSIVE so I took it off and walked around the store trying other lipsticks and NOTHING ELSE looks as good. This is just the best of the best of the best. GO BUY IT, LOVE IT. And ladies, feel fabulous while you do it!

Got a sample of this with a sephora purchase and I'm totally digging it. It goes on nice and creamy and has great color. I'm looking forward to buying a full size.

Awesome
-05.15.13
Quick Take: creamy, moisturizing
These are amazing. Such pretty colors, go on so smoothly, creamy and yet they seem to stay pretty well after you let them dry (since they are also really hydrating like a chapstick). They are quite pricey though, which is why I tried on a bunch in the store and picked one that I liked the best.

Smells amazing, looks amazing, perfect coral!
-05.15.13
Quick Take: long wearing, creamy, moisturizing
I've been eyeing coral intuitive for a little while now and I finally bit the bullet. Amazing color. I've been dying for a coral for summer but I generally do not like oranges, so I wanted something that was more pink than orange. This is it! It's a beautiful warm color that doesn't look like I'm trying to hard (still generally don't wear lipstick too often) and it doesn't make my teeth appear yellow like some orange-based colors do. It sits nicely on the lips and is mostly opapque but not overwhelmingly so. And I do love the mango scent! I prefer this formula over the more opaque one as the lighter colors (like pink lingerie, peach passion) tend to look chalky and heavy. I've been looking for a fun shocking purple lip color that is cool toned, not a fuschia pink based one - and violet incognito is it. That will be my next purchase! Would probably also look GREAT on darker skins. Excited they released some new colors!

Color changes and odd smell
-05.15.13
Pink in devotion goes on a bright strawberry pink (with a mango oil smell that I don't like). It's smooth and colorful and moisturizing. But the long lasting part of the color turned out to be a mauvy-pink, not the clear and bright that initially went on.

Too expensive
-05.15.13
Bought this lipstick which comes beautifully packaged and smells really good but.... when I got home I went over my receipt and was like heck no!! It was $38, like a dummy I didn't look at the price when I paid so I returned it back to the store.

fave summer shade

Quick Take: long wearing, creamy, moisturizing
I purchased the YSL lipstick in 15 coral intuitive and I am literally OBSESSED. The coral is bright enough to add color without being too much or neon. Its sheer so I can build the color I want.

Best lipstick ever
-05.13.13
Quick Take: creamy, moisturizing, long wearing
I purchased this lipstick as a gift to myself for my birthday last month and it was the best lipstick purchase I've ever made. The color last for hours; if I put it on in the morning before work it last until after lunch (12-1 o'clock). even after it starts to fade your lips are still tented and the it smells great! I LOVE IT!

Fantastic lipstick!! A Must Have for the Summer!!
-05.12.13
Quick Take: long wearing, creamy, moisturizing, hydrating, amazing color
Amazing lipstick!! Very long lasting. Even when you can't get anything on the napkin when you tap it on your lips, you still have the color left. Very hydrating, it lasts at least 4-6 hours. I got a No.12 Coral Incandescent, which is not a very typical color that you can find in other brands. Highly recommended!!

Perfect Lipstick
-05.12.13
Quick Take: creamy, moisturizing, long wearing, awesome
Love, love, Looooove this lipstick!
It has the substantial-ness of Chanel, yet goes on more transparent. It's a perfect combination of "staying put," and has good moisture. The lipstick doesn't feather, nor clump or go on sticky. It wears off evenly and slowly and you can put another layer of it on, without wiping the original layer off (without it going on funny.)
LOVE this lipstick!

Quick Take: creamy, moisturizing, long wearing
This lipstick pretty much lived up to the hype for me. I bought it in 05 Fuchsia in Excess, which is a beautiful bright cool-toned pink.
It's very creamy in consistency (almost too much--it took me so long to get it on in the right places, next time I'll use a lip liner), which lasts for a while. The downside to this is that it smudges very easily. However, after a few hours it sets on the lips. It still feels nice, just very slightly sticky, and the color is still there for the most part.
The big seller for me on this is how my lips feel after having this on all day. I don't worry about layering more on throughout the day, and my lips are not at all flaky after I take it off. This is a first for me!

Just ok!
-05.11.13
I got this as a sample and I don't think it's worth the money! I might buy it though, only because its the only coral that I've liked on me. It's really pretty and soft but it doesn't last and comes off easily.

this lipstick reminds of the revlon lip butters! Its smooth with high pigmentation and a beautiful shine! Out of all the lipsticks sephora has to offer this ysl rouge volupte shine is perfection. The packaging is a plus <3
