My first ever YSL Rouge Volupte!

So after reading millions (almost) of rave reviews of YSL's Rouge Volupte lipsticks I knew I had to invest in one or two. They're available on Cheap Smells at a lower retail price than on the YSL counters however the colour range is limited and I'm not sure how reliable the swatches are. I bought mine in shade 7 (unavailable on Cheap Smells) and it cost £22 - expensive but the packaging makes up for that because it's very glam and pretty. Oh and the product itself of course!
I love how they look! I also love how the pink colour on the packaging corresponds to the pink of the lipstick (it's the same for every shade), I love that you don't have to individually open each lipstick to see the colour like most!
Now, I'm sure you'll all be very shocked to see that I bought a Barbie pink shade - so completely out of character ;) haha! I love the ultra-creamy consistency of this lipstick, it's gorgeous to apply. 
And even though I shouldn't I keep licking it off because it tastes so nice!!!
It's a very pretty shade (not looking so hot on me but I hadn't used a liner/primer so I think I can be excused!). YSL Rouge Volupte's definitely live up to the hype!
