Review:

I love these lipsticks! I own 13 Le Orange and it’s amazing. I’m so happy to be adding these shades to my collection. 
YSL does a great job of describing the shades. 19 Fuchsia is a brighter purple pink (fuchsia) and 9 Rose Stiletto is a rose with a berry undertone. I’ve said this before but I hate satin finishes (lipsticks). These lipsticks are the only exception. The formula is very pigmented, creamy, and doesn’t bleed. A satin finish is matte with a bit of a sheen. I usually don’t like satin finishes because they are matte which can be a bit drying and with the sheen you can see any flakes/dry spots easily. While these are satin finishes they are creamy enough to not accentuate dryness... In general though these lipsticks don’t dry out your lips.
The swatches show one swipe of color! The lipsticks are satin finish so you can see the color is a flat matte, the formula is a matte and the flash shows the bit of sheen (not white it’s the reflects).  
  • Would you re-buy this product? Yes! I’ve been dying for 10 Beige Tribute.
  • How many stars? 5 out of 5
  • Who would I recommend this for? Anyone! 
  • Last Comments? If you’ve been considering buying a YSL lipstick this is my favorite formula. They are similar to the Silky Sensual lipsticks in creaminess but are more matte, longer lasting, and are more pigmentation.
Have you tried anything from Yves Saint Laurent? Thoughts?
