YSL Fall 2009 Collection Sneak Peek – Part 1
YSL for Fall 2009 made our hearts flutter with its stunning promotional imagery. I’m not shocked, either! With the introduction of four new shades of Rouge Volupte, stunning quints, and new Gloss Volupte? I knew this collection was going to cause a stir. Today, let’s preview Frivolous Pink Rouge Volupte ($34.00) — my very favorite lipstick formula — which is a gorgeous shade of milky pink that runs just a touch cool, but it’s not nearly as cool or as pale as Lingerie Pink, but it is not as bright as Fetish Pink. It applies smoothly, evenly, and feels moisturizing as you wear it. This is one of the creamiest lipsticks I’ve had the pleasure of using.
Check out the swatches…
Frivolous Pink, Iced Lychee (Gloss Volpute), Powdery Rose (Cream Blush)
YSL Frivolous Pink Rouge Volupte Lipstick
Oh that is so pretty!
Agreed, Lisa!
Oh crap I want this! I have been pining away for one of these since you posted pics last year of them but they’re so expensive!
LOL! They are pricey, but I LOVE THEM!
Have you checked them out in person?
YSL Rouge Vulupte lipsticks are my favorite!! I must have this shade. Thanks for the swatches. It’s beautiful!
Mine too! I adore them!
it looks like a dupe for saint germain
Yep just more pink and less pigmented.
i looked at the pic & thought the same thing. “this is like a toned down saint germain”. now granted its not toned down all that much, but i feel like its less milky than saint germain…more wearable. I def. like this color a lot & def more so than saint germain.
It’s very wearable!!
great minds think alike! that was my first thought, too.
LOVE the packaging!
That’s YSL for ya ;D
so pretty ! i love YSL lippies !
Me too, Claudia!
I love it on you!
I just got my 3rd YSL rouge volupte in #4 yesterday. It’s my 3rd one as I also have the #10 and the #17. I love how pigmented and creamy the formula is. It’s my HG lipstick most definitely!
Thanks, Roxy! Congrats on your third one!! They are addicting, yeah?
Awww, I would love one of these lipsticks. I wish I could find them at a counter near me! This one is gorgeous but it reminds me a whole lot of MAC Creme Cup which looked just awful on me (apparently I’m freakishly warm-toned).
No YSL cuonter? Boo. I only have a tiny, TINY one myself.
Oh my god must have this!!!!!!!
It is amazingly pretty!
This looks GORGEOUS on you. Your are so lucky to have such beautiful lips!
Aw, thanks, Kate!
Gorgeous! I hope it looks good on me. Christine, can you get a skin swatch and lip swatch of Spicy Pink too? I can’t wait to see it.
I don’t have it, but if I do get it or see it, I will
wooow, it looks so good on you!
Thanks, Livia
I want this lipstick.
It is SO SO pretty!
Not for me. I don’t do these pale pink shades.
Maybe one of the vampier shades will be more up your alley!
I MUST HAVE THIS!!! wow so beautiful i love great pink lipsticks like these i am so excited!!
I think you’ll love it, Ashley!
I love these lipsticks, such an indulgence.
Same here, Rosie!
its limited right?
I don’t think so, actually. I believe they are permanent additions.
thank goodness i thought they were limited and i don’t think my wallet could handle buying multiple backups for this!!
LOL! No worries!
what is the number of the frivolous pink?
19!
omg, frivolous pink is absolutely gorgeous!!! do you know exactly what day this comes out?
Unfortunately, I just have the month it’ll be on counter. It’s definitely hit or miss, too, because I’ve been to one store with it out and another without when it comes to high-end brands. I’d call your local YSL counter and ask them to call you when it is on-counter.
can you do a comparasion btw lingerie pink and this one pleaseeeeee
I’ll try!
when I saw this post a while ago I fell in love, and I finally ordered it thanks to 20% off with the sephora VIB code. i already have the nude #1 shade and it’s perfect, so i’m really excited for this pink. thanks for feeding my makeup addiction Christine!
Ohh, yay!!
So glad you are loving Nude #!
This color is so pretty. Do you think it can work with NC 42 skin?
I think it could with the right look!
Hey that color is very Lady Gaga-looking on you there, Christine! Which I think is fine, although it’d help to see your whole face to make sure.
I really love it its so creamy, i’m using it too.. frivolous pink <3<3<3
I hope you can read this as this review is what? two years ago. anyhow,
Yay! I finally bought my first volupte after months of fantasizing in this very page, and I am on my way of buying my second on thursday… It is because of you Ms. Christine. =D I am planning to buy #8. This kinda emphasize the wrinkles in my lips, so I am planning also to purchase YSL lipgloss. Can you help me? What YSL gloss should I buy for #8 fetish pink, and perhaps on #13 peach passion as well. Thanks…
Btw, this is my first time commenting. I was just contented before in reading your reviews and other’s opinions. Now that I jump headfirst in the very confusing world of make-up. I consider you my guide. since you converted me in the first place. “o) haha Please help!
