I got this cute mini-sized YSL lipstick at a morning tea I attended last month helping to raise funds for the Cancer Council. And by mini, I mean MINI. It's only 6cm tall! So cute.
With the amount of YSL lipstick reviews I've seen in the blogging world, I know that they're special. The gold tube and exquisite packaging makes you want to pull it out anywhere and everywhere. And well, it's a YSL! Why wouldn't you want to show it off? ;)
I would describe this colour as a a true red! It's quite stunning, and if I were to imagine a perfect red colour, this would be it. It looks matte when I take a shot of the lipstick, but when swatched and applied, it just has this gorgeous shine and luxurious feel to it.

you should go out of the house with it! looks good :)
ReplyDeleteOmgg yes! I thought of Snow White straight away when I saw the redness against your complexion and dark hair :):):)
ReplyDeleteGo for it!!! :) I love a red lippie but just like you im too scared i wont be able to pull it off.
ReplyDeleteOh, don't be shy. I wear red when I want to feel confident - it works!!
ReplyDeleteI was just gonna say Snow White! Lol! The YSL red lipstick looks great on ya! You shouldn't be afraid to sport it :3
ReplyDeleteI don't think you suit it darl... Go for a less bold red
ReplyDeleteReds also scare me a little bit, I tend to go for more cherry-leaning ones rather than too blue-based or too fire truck red. But overall I don't really wear them much, I prefer my pinks and peaches. The packaging is so cute and luxe :) I think you could definitely pull off this red in public! Thanks for your comment on my blog btw, it's nice to know that you stop by. My name's Lena :)
ReplyDeleteI wore this out the other day after that morning tea and then I got people looking at me... (to my assumption) LOL it is daring I'm prepared to wear it out to Melbourne tmrw!
ReplyDeleteThat would be my perfect lipstick. I wear red every single day. I love it because it has become my signature look.
ReplyDeleteGo for it!! you def look pretty in red! ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful red! :D
ReplyDeleteYou know what? You look great with red lips and should flaunt it out in public. YSL is my favorite brand of lipstick ever because they are great quality. I think you will really like their rogue volupte range because it's similar to lip butter but better. The funny thing is they are the same price as revlon (around $26/$27) if you purchase them overseas yet retail for $55 at myer. A good alternative is au.strawberry net which sells them for $34. Gah I'm so tempted to buy this because I love the snow white look :).
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw Rouge Pur Couture I thought you were going to talk about the stain, and thought what a coincidence because I've been eyeing the stain for the last two weeks! I think Snow White is a great look, it especially suits the cold weather atm :)
ReplyDeleteOh I would kill to try a YSL lipstick! baha, and by all means, go out with it on! It's a bit nerve-racking at first, but then you'll get use to it :D looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteThe colour is gorgeous!! Dude you should wear it out in public. ;) Everyone will be like HOT DAMN OW OW ! Hahaha :) I like to use lipliner with red lipstick, makes it even more pretty :D
ReplyDeleteThe packaging is gorgeous!! Love the colour too. I'm also too shy to pull off a bold red lip so usually I stain it on so it's more sheer and wearable haha.
ReplyDeleteI think you can pull it offff!!! ^_^ Do it! Show us a full face photo Tezza! These YSL lipsticks are so hyped up in the beauty blogosphere! I love their packaging and logo! Too bad, YSL is changing names to SPL! Yikes! xx
ReplyDeleteRed looks beautiful on you! You should leave your house with it on - such a shame to waste the color when it can't be seen :D
