YSL- also known as Yves Saint Laurent- is a makeup, clothing, handbag and shoe company. The company sells a wide range of makeup products from lip to eyes to nails. What's great about their products are their vibrancy yet simplicity. In the products shown below, you can use any of them to make your lips or eyes pop or even use them for a casual day. Additionally, they have a wide range of radiant nail colors that have long-term lasting power.

The lip products shown above are great for jazzing up any makeup look. However, they are also great for sheering out when you want just a tint of color on your lips. The texture is very smooth and feels great on your lips. The gold rouge volupte lipstick is very long lasting and we reccomend using a lip liner underneath in order to ensure it does not stain your lips. On the other hand the silver volupte sheer candy glossy balm are exactly like their name- sheer. So, while you may have to reapply the product on your lips throughout the day, they are great for when you just want to add a tint to your lips. Lastly, the rouge pur couture glossy stain feels amazing to apply. The brush is very soft and with one swipe, you have tinted lips. Depending on the look you are going for you can apply this alone or over lipstick.

The nail polishes are definitely a splurge but worth it. The colors are very vibrant and the brushes make them easy to apply. The polish usually lasts about a week until you need to remove or apply over chipped areas. I would reccomend buying a color that you would want to wear consistently or all year around to make sure you are getting your money's worth!

The YSL creme de blush has a unique cream to powder consistency, giving you a healthy, radiant glow. This product is very long lasting, noting that when applied in the morning it will stay all throughout the day till the night. This blush can be worn super natural due to the fact that it does not cake up or leave your skin looking over powdered. You can use YSL's creme de blush for either a sheer wash off colour on your cheeks or you can intensify your look for a Girls Night Out by applying a few more layers. To apply either pat it on with your fingertips or use a duo fiber stippling brush on the apples of your cheeks. Unfortunately, this product and specific colour is no longer sold at Sephora, but luckily Nordstrom has six other amazing colours to try out. Though this product is up there in price, it is totally worth it, because a little bit goes a long way, and with only having this product for a year or so now day after day, there is no visible dent!

The YSL pure chromatics eyeshadow palette is perfect for any time of the year because of its neutral colors. You can use all for to create a brown smokey eye or even just use one of the pinks or light brown to add some color to your eye lids any day of the week. The colors are sheer but if you dab it on your eye lids the color will be more defined. The shadows are very easy to blend however, they are sparkly so it all depends on the type of look you would go for if you are deciding to purchase this palette. Since it is expensive, always make sure you love the colors and affect it gives your eyes before purchasing it!
