I have tried quite an array of lipsticks in my time and although I have found some real gems, I have also found some crashing disappointments.
I love a great lipstick but I also hate a high maintenance product. Anything that requires a touch up every seven minutes or is so slippery I am permanently paranoid that it is on my teeth and chin or is so drying that I feel like I am walking round with dry, crusty prunes on my face- is not a winner in my books.
The Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Volupte Shine Lipstick in Fuchsia in Rage is the first YSL lipstick I have tried and I am not going to lie I was pretty taken aback by it.
It is so smooth and creamy, making it by far the most lip balm like lippie I own.
It applies smoothly as hell- comfort is it's number one sell, but then I automatically assumed that this is going to be one of those products that drives me up the bloody wall with paranoia...but no.

It didn't bleed, it didn't smear, it held its own against a latte and actually left a stain behind.
From the swatch below you can see that it is quite sheer:
However it builds up incredibly easily to a gorgeous punchy colour that just perks up the complexion no end. I pair it with thick, black lashes and that's about it. It makes me look and feel awake whilst adding moisture to my lips- which is especially great if they are dry and chapped. It's probably the only lipstick I can wear regardless of my lip state.
Pigment is on point and even after building up, it still stays put.
I know this is a pricey lipstick but I will undoubtedly pick up more, this is one of the products in my stash where I hands down believe you get what you pay for. I don't even really understand how something can feel so buttery and glossy on the lips whilst being long lasting..
Have any of you tried this? Any shade recommendations?
