IT EXISTS. I've been looking for this EVERYWHERE. I could've just bitten the bullet and paid to ship it, but there is something so rewarding about finding your cosmetics in the store somewhere. Like finding a magical unicorn.
This is the new YSL Gloss Volupte in 209 Smoking. It's gorgeous. And shiny. And black. It's meant to go over other colors to add dimension and deepen the color. I fell in love with the applicator, it's shaped like a little pair of lips. And, as always, the packaging is gorgeous.
As you can see, in some lights and directly applied, the gloss comes off as a shimmery deep purple. Which is gorgeous. So I'm not complaining.
However, in less direct light, it does go on a pretty deep black. It seems to sheer out extremely well, so I'm thinking that it will be pretty easy to control the amount of pigmentation that this gloss delivers. I'm thinking that it will look particularly gorgeous over a lavender lip color, mainly due to the purple undertones. Swatches of that to come!
There are other colors I want to try! Those that have some of the Gloss Volupte glosses, which ones should I try?
xoxo,
Gabrielle
