This is a YSL lipstick.
Nice, right? That iconic gold packaging is so breathtaking. It’s pure luxury. What could YSL possibly do to make this gorgeous tube of lipstick sexier in my eyes?
Hello, engrave my name on the packaging. I got this personalized tube of lipstick as a gift from the lovely people at YSL and thank you, thank you, thank you! I shall cherish it forever. So you’re probably curious as to what colour is inside, yeah?
YSL Rouge Pur Couture Golden Lustre in 110 Fuchsia Symbole
This is the YSL Rouge Pur Couture Golden Lustre in 110 Fuchsia Symbole ($38). Eeeeeee! It’s a bright but sheer pink, and it is every bit as gorgeous as its packaging. The Rouge Pure Couture Golden Lustre line is new and available now exclusively at The Bay. They contain reflective pigments of pink, white and yellow gold that give the shades that little bit of extra dimension on the lips.

These are more sheer and more moisturizing than the Rouge Pur Coutures. They almost feel like a gloss on the lips. I love this lipstick formula! Here is a comparison of 110 Fuchsia Symbole and Rouge Pur Couture in 07 Le Fuchsia.

The new line is available permanently except for one shade, 113 Rose Parisien, which was recently featured on Lipstick Rules and oh. my! — do we love the shade or what?
Get the Look
Because this fuchsia pink is quite sheer, I chose to wear 110 Fuchsia Symbole with an silver and black smoky eye using YSL Ombre Duolumières in N° 41 – Silver Moiré / Flannel Black ($52) from the YSL Holiday collection. This is a great party look and I am really pleased with how it turned out. 
For the eyes, I started by blending a brown cream base (Annabelle Muddy Smudge Paint) all over the lid and above the crease. I sprayed a flat eyeshadow brush with MAC Fix+, then applied the silver eyeshadow wet on the inner half of the eyelid, as well as the inner third of the lower lash line. I then applied the black eyeshadow along the outer third of the eyelid, blending into the outer crease. I took a chocolate brown eyeshadow (MUFE 17 Espresso) in between the black and the silver to blend the two seamlessly. I also applied the brown in the crease and ran it along the lower lash line, followed by the black along the outer 1/3 of the lower lash line. I applied black eyeliner all around (Annabelle Ohmygoth! Smudgeliner) and mascara (Giorgio Armani Eyes To Kill).
I also wore one of my best purchases at IMATS — the Velour Lashes in You Complete Me — in this FOTD. Can you say bombshell lashes ten times fast? I just adore these lashes. They are so soft and lush.
For the cheeks, I left rest of the face clean with a neutral blush (NARS Douceur) and a little bit of contouring (MUFE 17 Espresso).
