I thought that since it’s Valentines Day I would share one of my recent(ish) lip purchases which would stand the test of many a make out session. Now I personally am not a love of lipstick when it comes to kisses but if you likely to get caught out and are looking for something smudge proof, look no further! YSL Glossy Stains are the one expensive lip product that I really think are worth the cash. Yes L’Oreal do their own version and yes they are technically the same company but they’re just not the same. The L’Oreal are good when they’re good but I have 5 or 6 and most of them aren’t. With the YSL you’re paying for consistency, they all work in the same way.. the only issue is colour. The colour you swatch in store dries to a totally different colour on your lips so it’s a gamble every time but iif you do your research (google images/blog reviews) you can fairly safely purchase a colour you’ll like.
Now after what I said about consistency this one is actually sheerer than others I have, it’s buildable but I find it doesn’t wear as evenly is you layer it too much. One layer gives you the colour shown above and will last hours, even through eating and drinking. At £25 a pop I’m not suggesting you need a huge variety of these but it’s nice to have a bold lip colour that you know will stay put for those times when you wont have time/it’s not appropriate to check and reapply every half an hour – a date for example!

thank you x
I wish there was a cheaper alternative tho saying that my mum uses chanel and that very expensive and it dose not last that long
The red one from L’Oreal.. I think it’s called Juliet.. was really good for me and around £7.99 however the rest were really hit and miss so I can’t tell you that every version of that red will be worth your money :/
I love the YSL lip stains, I have 9 and I’m going to restock and try other shades as well x

they never let me down!
It looks gorgeous and so strong of colour! There’s nothing more annoying than a lip gloss that only adds a tint!

A really gorgeous shade which looks great on you!
I can’t imagine wearing anything on my lips that would last through a kissing sesh! Might have to give this a try..
That colour looks glorious on you! I wasn’t a fan of these formulas but it just goes to show how different things work for different people!

This looks amazing and I’d love to try one but I can’t afford to at the moment! It looks lovely on you though 🙂
This is my favourite lip product – it really is worth the money. It’s worth having one everyday shade in the collection – I can’t afford to buy too many of these! It looks great on you and I love your hair colour too!

This is so pretty and suits you lovely too. ^_^
I’ve been after one of these by YSL for ages but in the end I’ve just left it. 🙁
