Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Volupte - 13 Peach Passion

Hi Lovelies!

I recently purchased my first ever YSL lipstick, and I have to say that I found it so difficult to choose a shade!  I would have them all if I could.  But I decided on this one, as I really don't have a similar shade in all of my many lip products.

YSL Rouge Volupte - £23.50

I love the packaging, it looks so chic.  That was one of the reasons I was dying to own one to be honest! This glides on pretty well, but I find I have to really make sure I don't have and dry patches on my lips and that they are well moisturised as it clings to them and settles there.  Although, it doesn't dry my lips out, they just have to be well cared for. I find the texture unusual because it isn't like any other lip product I've used.  It's almost velvety.

A lot of bloggers comment on the smell of these lipsticks, saying how lovely it is, but honestly I don't like it.  It's a bit over powering.  I have noticed though that it smells strongest when it's disturbed, when you apply it. But in the bullet and once it has settled on your lips it isn't noticeable, so I can bear it for the 10 seconds it takes to apply.

I love the colour range of these lipsticks so I would definitely buy another one, but they aren't my favourite high-end lip product to use.  I always need to pat this one in and blend it into my lips, so it's a little more high maintenance.

Do any of you own one of these? I'd like to know which shades and what you think of them!
