YSL Love / Updates

[Libellules]

Seeing threads for lots of other lovely brands, with my love for YSL growing, I found it only fitting to start a YSL Love / Updates thread (if I missed an existing one, please let me know)!

Please feel free to share any updates about the brand, reviews, YSL looks,  or general love you feel like sharing 🙂

@Anonymous I'm looking forward to seeing everyone's reviews as well!

I definitely buy more the more I'm on BT.  All that temptation is more than I can resist!!!

These look like really creamy intense colors! And as always the YSL packaging is top notch. Not that we buy lipsticks for the packaging, but....;)

[meganlisa]

Sometimes...

Super intense.  Impressively so!  I'm enjoying them so far!

[darkiceis]

The red one looks really pretty and I'm really liking the black packaging. It has a very sexy bedroom vibe going on. 🙂

[meganlisa]

I didn't think of that (the sexy bedroom vibe) but love the concept!  

[lyravega]

These colors are gorgeous! Ohhh, I hope I get the same shades! Can't wait for mine to arrive. Hurry up, Mr. Postman! Hurry up! 😄

Can't wait to see your review video!

[meganlisa]

@lyravega I'm so curious to hear what shades you get and what you think! 

They're so pretty on (IMO).  Video in a couple of days, once I've had a little time with them.

We're lucky!

[dioradict]

Congrats @meganlisa 🙂 They are your colors 🙂

[meganlisa]

@dioradict Thanks!  I do really appreciate it, and the shades.  And you know how I am about YSL.

Happy Thursday!

[DaintyDiva]

Oh my gawd, what a lovely gift. I'm so happy for you. The colors are scrumptious, I can't wait for your review video 🙂

[meganlisa]

I'm especially loving 402.  I don't do enough orange based reddish shades (I just decided...).  

I'm getting to know these today!  And it is a wonderful gift.  Feeling a little blessed!

[DaintyDiva]

I know what you mean. Until 6 months ago or so I would only wear rose or dark reds, I had never considered even light red. Now I'm so in love with orange toned lips and cheeks, it's surprising.

[meganlisa]

@DaintyDiva You and me both.  I tried the oranges from the D&G summer collection and just love them.  But that's carrying over to the orange reds too.  A whole new category to want!

[Samtian]

Congrats! Those are gorgeous!

[meganlisa]

Thanks!  I have a weakness for YSL too.  Seems like I can't say no to the brand!

I'm excited!! Sephora also offered to send these to me!

402 looks like a perfect dupe for the bright coral red from Mirenesse (Seoul I think)? I LOVED the colour but the lip cream never dried and was a hot mess especially if I ate something (red lipstick on teeth, NOT a good look).

I was hoping to receive #407 Carmin Session because it was a super gorgeous mauve purple when I swatched it in store but I will be happy with whatever Sephora sends me 😄

My (short) experience with them is also that they don't dry down...but they do stain even after the product is gone. I wiped 3 swatches away from my hand after a few minutes, and all 3 left a nice coloured stain that survived all the way through multiple hand washings  during the day until I finally cleansed my face with facial oil and the oil took the stains off.

I saw these in store last week, I wonder why the release for the US is later than Canada?

The packaging is SO sleek, I love the all black case!

[meganlisa]

@k617 Can't wait to see them on you!  I can absolutely see these shades working on you!

I was told not to post a review before August 1 so assumed that was the release date.  So far, so lovely!

Agree on the packaging.

[k617]

Oh wow, really? I looked in my UPS account and there was the tracking for the shipment and mine's not supposed to be here until August 3 so I guess I'll be good! 😄

I do hope I get the same shades, you can't go wrong with red! Although I'd say this range has fairly tame colours. The only one I might be a little bit iffy on is the bright orange.

This might be the first time in history where a non-Canadian exclusive product was released in Canada before the US! I tried to look for this product on the US site and could not find it, however, as per my post below from July 9 it's been available online for us since then! 😄

[meganlisa]

Amazing that you've had them so long!  The YSL site has also had them, but not Sephora (I've been looking).

I really like the shades I got.  Perfect for this time of year.  I like the vibrancy.  I'm so curious to see other shades!

[TTSS]

Any news about release of the Vinyl Cream Stains in any other store than YSL's online? I am missing my HG glossy stains too much!

[k617]

I already see them on Sephora Canada, I'd be very surprised if it's not also up on the US site. Or is that a different product?
