Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Volupté Silky Sensual Radiant Lipstick in Nude Beige | Swatches and Review

Purchased (Affiliate Links)

Nude lipsticks are my greatest obsession, and finding one that does not wash you out and make you  look like the queen of the zombie apocalypse can be a challenge. To date, my very favorite peachy pink nude has been TOM FORD Beauty Lip Color in Nude Vanille (Reviewed HERE), but I must say that I recently purchased Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Volupté Silky Sensual Radiant Lipstick in Nude Beige, and I am madly in love with it! While it too, is a peachy pink, it is a bit deeper and darker than Nude Vanille, but it is definitely in the same color family.

The consistency of Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Volupté Silky Sensual Radiant Lipstick is very creamy, buttery soft and silky smooth. It glides across the lips like a dream, deposits opaque color evenly, and  it neither settles into lip lines, nor does it bleed.  It boasts a gorgeous sheen, is very comfortable on this lips, and I find it lightly moisturizing, rather than drying. Nude Beige, which is described as a, "creamy neutral beige" is a stunning peachy pink nude that is infinitely flattering on the skin, and it can be sheered out for a natural wash of color, or built up for maximum opacity. I get about 3 hours of wear before I need to reapply it, but if I apply it over a more matte textured lip balm it increases the wear-time significantly. While it has the well-known YSL sweet, fruity scent, I find that it fades soon upon application.

According to Yves Saint Laurent,

An object of desire, this award-winning lipstick is wrapped in a romantic, elegant gold case that exudes luxury. Each signature shade saturates lips in captivating color that's intensely pigmented, and imparts an irresistible glossy shine. The long-lasting, comforting formula is highlighted with a unique Color-shine Complex that leaves lips visibly smoother, plumper and more radiant. Light, silky texture smooths on a veil of satiny, sensual color that's altogether alluring.
