YSL Rouge Volupte shine oil stick

There was a lot of hype around the new formulation of YSL lipsticks released in Spring 2016, they build from semi-sheer to semi-opaque colour making them slightly customisable to your needs and they claim to be conditioning onto the lips as well. The colours were all a lovely lot and as much as I wanted a lovely coral colour in the end I bottled and bought just the same nude/pinky shade that I always go for. So this is the shade Beige Blouse in number 47. 
Packaging


The lipstick itself melts in a way once on the lips from sold lipstick to oil which means when you are wearing it it has a lovely comfortable feel about it. In terms of wear time it seems to last around 4-5 hours. The glossiness of the oil disappears over time though leaving behind just the pigment so again it depends on how you want to wear it as to how often you reapply it. 
The lipstick barrels also hold 0.15 oz of product which is a quite sizeable for lipstick (the average MAC lipstick holds 0.10 oz as a comparison). 
These little guys also have a mango sent to them which I personally love and makes the lipstick feel even more summery, as it was bought for my summer holiday this was a perfect addition for me.
The packaging is beautiful, its classy and weighty and is exactly what I expect from a higher end purchase as it not only feels luxurious but looks it and also gives the impression of producing the product inside due to it being a more study type of packaging.

I think this lipstick is perfect I have to say. Yes it is pricey at the £26 I paid for it but it is the type of lipstick that can go with anything. Its a beautiful everyday colour and finish whilst still being versatile to that night time nude that we all love to pair with a darker smokey eye. I love this purchase and would urge anyone if they are toying with the idea of getting a higher end lipstick and that quite like a sheer finish to pick up this formula.
