#9 – MAGIC COPPER
# 11 – GLAMOROUS RED

Hi all IMBB dolls, I’ve really missed you all, having being out of action for a while, but now I’m back with a bang, and am reviewing 2 shades of YSL lip glosses which I’ve had for about 3 or 4 months now. To tell you the truth, I really have mixed feelings about these glosses – while I’m so loving the shimmery effect they give, I am missing the full coverage which I am used to with my lipsticks, as these glosses are very, very sheer indeed. But anyway here goes :

YSL TOUCHE BRILLIANCE SPARKLING TOUCH FOR LIPS

These YSL gloss-pens come packed in a gold cardboard packing with the classic red and black YSL logo in the middle of the pack. The gold packaging is definitely eye-catching and attractive. These are pen-type brush applicators which have to be clicked with the black knob at the end to dispense the gloss. Initially, I had to click the black knob at least 20 times before any product appeared on the brush.

# 11 Glamorous Red is a sheer finish light red shade with silver sparkles. I find this looks nice to wear, even on its own. # 9 Magic Copper is a sheer finish rusty-copperish shade also with silver sparkles.

PROS OF YSL TOUCHE BRILLIANCE SPARKLING TOUCH FOR LIPS

  • Gives a high-shine, high-shimmer effect that instantly adds glamour to the lips.
  • Comes in an attractive packaging.
  • Easy-to-carry-around gloss case.
  • Feels extremely smooth on lips.
  • Spreads evenly on application.
  • If you like sheer coverage, this would be a great gloss for you.
  • Is a good gloss to layer over any lipstick and won’t feel heavy.
  • YSL offers 8 or 10 shades in this range

CONS OF YSL TOUCHE BRILLIANCE SPARKLING TOUCH FOR LIPS

  • The smell – the brush tip smells very ‘plasticky’.
  • Gives only about 2 hours wear time, sometimes less, then the colour fades completely.
  • For me, the sheer coverage might add up to a con, as I like some fuller coverage.
  • Initially, after clicking the black knob about 20 times, only the sheer gloss appeared on the pen-brush first for about 5 clicks, followed by the shimmer, but it took quite a few uses before both the gloss and the shimmer appeared together on the brush.
  • Is high-priced.

I would give these YSL glosses a :-* :-* :-* rating (minus 1 point for the smell and minus 1 point for the time spent in repeated clicking and even then getting the product in dribs and drabs).

Regarding re-purchase, I won’t be buying this product again but I am happy to use it and enjoy it for the time being!!

NOTE FOR RATI, JOMOL, RADS, AND ALL THE IMBB DIVAS
I managed to find the nail polish I had used in the pics of my last post on the Inglot blushes. It was Faces nail polish No. 24 Shimmer Mauve. Here’s a new pic I took :

  2. Sabrina, for some reason i have never been drawn towards YSL lip glosses. They are too pale for my liking and would almost look like clear glosses on my skin tone :(( They look super pretty on your lips though. 🙂 I liked the red shade a lot..

    and I am picking up this silver nail paint. Since many days I have been hunting for such foiled kind of silvery nail polish. Thankooo .. Yippppyyy :happydance: :happydance: :happydance: :happydance: :happydance: :happydance:

  3. I love my shimmery Loreal Glamshines……these ones also look nice, just wish they were not so sheer.
    Love that nail paint. I am always partial towards silver

  6. They are too sheer for my liking but suiting your lips very well Sabrina! :waytogo: Do you find these better than the L’oreal glamshines? Which is the pink nail paint you’re wearing here?

    1. Hi Ankita. Thank you. I am going to try the L’oreal Glam Shines (new launch) ones this weekend itself and I will let you know. I am wearing an Inglot nail polish No. 698.

  7. leave the glosses, sabrina.. i am definitely picking up the nail paint… thts too gudd… :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:

  8. Thanks a ton, Rati. I hope you get the Faces nail paint. I forgot to mention that it’s kind of holographic – from some angles it looks mauve, and against the light it looks completely silver.
