Last week I posted about another of these Glossy Stains in shade 12.. not may favourite and a great example of how the colour in the tube can look oh so different when it sets on the lips. With that in mind I bough this one hoping it would look different – success! It’s definitely my favourite of the shades I own now but I’ve not given up on finding one a little lighter.. they just look so blue toned that I assume they wont suit me but again.. they look so different on that it’s almost impossible to guess whether it will be the colour you want. Any suggestions welcome!
As with all of these stains it lasts really well, I find that it lasts longer with just one or two layers of product.. much like lipstick the more you apply the more likely it is to wear quicker. The packaging is obviously lush.. I love the YSL lipsticks because they look like luxury items but I am yet to bring myself to spend the money on one because I just don’t think they’ll be all that much better than something from say MAC or even Revlon which are half (or less) the price. The Glossy Stains feel worth the money.
Available online here for (ouch) £25.00

Of all the colours that you have been reviewing this colour and stain looks the best on you. Pity that it is high end but I guess in this instance you are getting what you pay for. The stain also seems to make your lips look very smooth.

It’s definitely one of my current faves!
Ooh this looks lovely on you! Is it similar to Revlon Matte Balm in Sultry?

not really.. that’s a deeper pink but it’s tough to call since the finish/formula is so different
Beautiful color on you!

thank you x
While the product is amazing, I can’t bring myself to spend that much when I can get the same effect from a drugstore brand.

if you can then I’d agree but I can’t so I think it’s worth it
This looks stunning on you!

I have been eyeing this shade for quite some time, but have been reluctant to purchase it since I haven’t heard much about it. It sounds amazing and next time I feel like splurging I will be sure to check it out! Great review!
Such a pretty colour on you and so pigmented!
