Review | YSL Rouge Volupte Shine

I recently purchased my first Yves Saint Laurent lipstick. It is defiantly the most expensive lipstick in my collection. However, I have fallen in love with the formula! My lips get dry easily and quickly but the Rouge Volupte Shine lipsticks are very moisturising and I find that I do not have to wear a lip balm underneath. It is comfortable to wear on the lips, glossy and defiantly one of my favourites!


They cost £26. Even though I do love these lipsticks the price tag is quite steep! MAC lipsticks are nearly just as nice and cost nearly half the price. Having said that, the packaging is beautiful and they are a 'high end' lipstick so I expect the price tag. The YSL lipsticks are a luxurious product and a real treat.


I was torn between two shades, number 8 and number 9. Number 8 is more pinky than 9. I decided to purchase Number 8 from House of Fraser. This shade is a really pretty 'my lips but better' kind of shade. When I first removed the lid, my first thought was 'this is going to be far to sparkly'. I thought this because the lipstick has glitter in it. But when it is on the lips the glitter adds to the shine and looks stunning! I think that the Rimmel London lipliner in the shade Eastend Snob is a pretty colour match, makes the lips appear more prominent with the liner underneath and helps the lasting power of the lipstick.


Over all I think that these lipsticks are worth the money. I will defiantly, slowly, purchase more YSL lipsticks in more shades and different finishes. 

Thank you for reading my review and I hope you find it helpful.
Do you have any good recommendations/favourite lipsticks?
