Blogmas Day 15 | YSL Golden Gloss - Shimmering Lip Gloss

Bonjour and welcome to Blogmas Day 15! Only 10 more days 'til Christmas which means absolutely nothing to me other than I get to eat my boyfriend's awesome cooking real soon! Today I have a seriously luxurious gloss to share with you all! It's Yves Saint Laurent's Golden Gloss - Shimmering Lip Gloss in 047 White Gold Topaz. I got it as a gift for Hanukkah from family friend's and wowza, this is one shmancy gloss! 
First off, the packaging. It's sleek and so very "YSL". The gloss is rectangular with a rectangular gold top that has a YSL logo on the front. The applicator is a brush tip which I love, because I prefer those to the doe foot applicators!
The color of the gloss is outstanding. I was in awe when I saw it! It's so perfect and almost the exact color I have been searching for, to wear in the winter months! It's a semi-sheer berry-plum color with purple-y/pink shimmers. It turns a lovely berry pink on my lips and I can't get enough of it! It looks good with almost every make up I've done and I think it'll transition into a spring/summer gloss seamlessly! The gloss itself is not at all sticky, or goopy. It's amazingly formulated which you should expect when paying for a $30 lip gloss! The gloss even tastes really good, I can't put my finger on it, but it's lovely! Almost adds to the luxury of the gloss! I love this gloss so much which is saying a lot considering my lip gloss collection is almost non-existent. I prefer my lipsticks, but this one will make me rethink! I've worn it so many times already and it's only been 7 days since I've gotten it!

YSL has always been one of those brands that I love and adore but am not so quick to jump/impulse buy. It's always been a brand I thought I would treat myself with. It's such a glorious lip gloss and so perfect that if you're a fan of lip glosses have a look, or add it to your Christmas list before it's too late!
