YSL Discussion Thread

I just purchased shade 2 and 7 of the Kiss and Blush as they had them reduced at 19.7 pounds. So excited to see what they're like!! They were 40% off here in a Spanish website and I couldn't resist the offer!

I hope you love them! You picked two really beautiful colors. Please come back & let us know what you think!

Thanks for sharing this gorgeous swatch. I got both Celadon & Cyclades and know that my short nails can't possibly display these colors as well as your beautiful nails
are displaying Celadon here. Just BEAUTIFUL!

Thank you, Medgal! I love the colour so much!

Couldn't agree more. YSL's La Laque Couture formula has become my favorite. It almost applies itself. I think it's even better than Chanel and Dior. It's just that good.

I love their polishes too, the formula is great, applies easily and actually lasts which a lot of high end polishes don't do on me esp with Seche Vite. I don't know what it is but Chanel, Butter London and Dior don't like it and I have to use a base coat if I want to even see 2/3 days out of one of those polishes. YSL has no problem!

I think YSL make the best nail polishes in the world, and I don't understand why they don't get more attention. I also love the formula of Chanel, but to be honest, I think YSL is a lot better. I wish they had more colors.

I haven't yet tried the new gel formula from Dior. I hope it's better than their old one which I couldn't work with at all.

I find that surprising too. YSL has had some really unique & beautiful shades too. Unfortunately, I don't have consistent success w/any of the NP brands & formulas.
For me, they've all been somewhat hit or miss. I recently purchased a few of the Dior gels but I've not yet worn them. I was a bit hesitant because I struck out w/the Dior
Gel top coat.

Here's hoping for the best!

Please, report how you find the new Dior np's! I like some of the colors, but I do hesitate a bit...

The Dior formula is really very good, I have Pandore on my toes ( with top coat ) it will wear 5-7 days without any chipping even minor, I am not wearing sandals at the moment the weather here is bad, but it does not have any impact on the np, it wears very long. The Chanel formula is not very good compared to the Dior one. Go ahead I think the formula will work on you. I exfoliate my feet once or twice a week, insisting on nails I am under lithium carbonate which is a poison for nails, hair and skin btw, and I have à few fav brands ( Long wearing, good formula and texture ) : Dior, Essie, Zoya, Nars, YSL, OPI, NCLA, DL and Guerlain too. Chanel, China Glaze or Bourjois no Thanks, Estée Lauder well it dépends. I tried Formula X I love the formula, I have one np and the top coat which is good ! I do love my Chanel ones but they wear 1 day on my hands and 4 days on my toes with minor chipping. Dior is the best ever really ( the gel formula ), it is very easy to apply and to remove which is not the case with Essie so good but somewhat difficult to remove I think . This is it

I've had Dior Sunnies #448 (tropical orange) on my toes for 3 weeks now---it still looks perfect. This same polish would last on my fingernails for 1-3 days, only because
of the way that I use my hands. I'm eager to try the gel formula.

Oh I'm howling because I totally believe it contributes greatly to my tip-wear & chipping.
Rarely happens when I'm sitting quietly reading a book.

 

[Dominique33]

Ha, ha Her Greyness is right ! )) Now we know where the chipping comes from lol ! Funny !

Exactly---can't blame the NP formula for that!

But I can blame myself for hauling, I ended up with YSL Kiss and Blush " Pink Hédoniste " a soft peach pink, love it ! I purchased les Beiges bronzing powder, Dior np Sailor and a Sephora palette ( it looks like a neon pink Ipad, great ), today was a bad day for my wallet, MAC this very morning and Sephora this very afternoon. And no you can't blame the NP formula for that,

!

 

[Dominique33]

Here are swatches ( Pink Hédoniste, soft peach pink ). All 12 shades are gorgeous it is hard to pick up just one but I did pick up just one today

 

[Medgal07]

Wow---what a beautiful pink!!

Well here's a thud for you missy

AWESOME haul!!!

I got Sailor too because it was the most unique of the three but I also ended up getting Captain & Yacht
because the 3 just looked cute together.

 

[Dominique33]

Thank you I initially thought of other pink shades but this peachy one seemed perfect in fact. The 12 are worth the splurge, I love the texture which is so buildable and soft, a great YSL product and as you have 4 well, I don ´ want to enable you but )) lol I would recommand all !

 

[User38]

I confess I bought this one a few days ago.. lol
