Yes Saint Laurent Volupte Sheer Candy

Ok so I am in LOVE with these lipsticks. They are really "glossy balm crystal color" (fancy YSL talk...) but they come in the same beautiful packaging as the regular lipsticks! And that's what really drew me in, the amazingly beautiful packaging!



So sorry the pictures are such low quality but I took them with my iPad really quick. I didn't want to do a full video about these but I did want to say how great they are! 

The first picture is #4 Succulent Pomegranate. And I know that when you go look at it in the store or look at it online, it looks super pink but it is kind of like the Revlon lip balms that are sheer (sorry I can't remember the name of them) or the Maybelline Baby Lips (except I find those very drying on my lips and these totally aren't!). So it just give a light pink tint to the lips and a great glossy shine. The second one is #1 Lush Coconut. I love this one as well! It gives a slight light brown/gold tint to the lips. It does have flecks of gold in it which gives your lips an amazing shine. 

I also find these really moisturizing on my lips. I, personally, have a hard time with lips balms. My lips tend to be really dry on their own and so I need a lip balm that will stay on my lips and tend to be kind of heavy. Like my favorite is the overnight one from Bath&Body Works. It's meant to stay on all night, so it's really heavy. I always find myself using it during the day because my lips are so dry. These however are super light, to me, and they stay on super long (when you just put them on for color, they stay on pretty well while eating to!). The fact that they stay on and are really light makes me super happy! Especially since they stay on so well! 

My only issue with these is the price. They are $32.00! However, i do realize they are a high end/luxury brand and they are going to be more expensive than anything other lip product that i have ever bought. There are some dupes out there and I think that Revlon and L'oreal make them. I know that L'oreal has their spring line out and there are some colors in there that are almost the exact same thing and they are only like $7 or $8. I am not sure how they feel on the lips though because I don't have any of them, I just saw the colors. As for the YSL ones,  I do really like them though and would buy them all if I could!

So I hope that was a good read! Maybe it helped you find some new products to use! And sorry I don't have any color swatches, my camera is acting up!
