No, it is not a blue-red. It's like a shimmery cherry red, not too dark, not too light, in my opinion just right. I think you can return it if you are not pleased with it. I personally love mine. Also, it smells ahhhh-mazing!

Question
does Volupte Sheer Candy plump lips?
The more info para mentions spheres that penetrate lips and swell (like how other lip plumpers sometimes work). I'm wondering if this product also does it, as no one has commented on that effect.

No, YSL Sheer Candy does not have any lip plumping effects. For lip plumping I use Too Faced Lip Injection Extreme Lip Plumping Gloss.

No - these days every product claims to plump your lips and make your eyelashes grow and make you ace the LSAT without studying, so take claims like this with a boulder-sized grain of salt. Using a glossy color like this DOES make lips APPEAR fuller. For added fullness, use lipliner to line VERY slightly outside of your natural lip line, blend, add gloss/lipstick (don't go too dark unless you have full lips already), and add something with shimmer to the middle of your lower lip and along your cupid's bow.

I agree with Andreita. I decided to try this on in the store in the Cherry color. When I first put it on, I thought "meh". It just seemed like a regular lipstick that smelled great. I walked around the store and looked at my lips about 2 minutes later and was amazed. It took a second to do it's magic, but it definately creates a very smooth and shiney look, which is why I think it "plumps". What is also great is that it seems to last all day. Not necessarily the shine, but the color stains the lips too. Maybe not for the lighter shades, but definately stains for the Cherry.

No. its not a lip plumping gloss, but any type of glossy lip color or gloss will give an optical illusion of fuller lips.

All shades are available at any local Sephora stores. Only downside is that they sell out in certain shades, like No. 1, so quickly so you need to nab them while they're still hot!

What color is the best replacement for the discontinued YSL GLOSS VOLUPTÉ in frozen cherry?
I am obsessed with the YSL GLOSS VOLUPTÉ SHEER SENSUAL GLOSS STICK in frozen cherry but they don't make it any more and I can't find it anywhere. I was thinking that Luscious Cherry might be okay but I don't want anything sparkly. Does anyone know if Succulent Pomegranate or Mouthwatering Berry would be better? I want to try them but they aren't in stores near me. I just want a really beautiful sheer red like frozen cherry was.

You need to try shade 06, I find it to be very similar. Yes it has shimmer, which you can see when the product is in the tube, but I see no shimmer on my lips once applied. Plus this version is twice the product as the old one, at the same price. Whats not to like about that. :)

Luscious Cherry is a little more red than Gloss Volupte Frozen Cherry, but it's not sparkly.

The berry is not red at all on me, it is more of a sheer purple. I would have to say Berry isn't your answer if you're looking for a red shade. These balms aren't at all frosted or have any sparkle.

Okay first off, these are shimmery. Second I am obsessed with #3 frozen cherry as well, bought 4 tubes. The cherry one from this line is very pretty and does compare well but is shimmery. if you really love #3 as much as I do, you can order from the YSL website. They still carry them! hope this helped!

If you are looking for more intense color, this may not be for you as the colors are fairly sheer. I chose Lush Coconut since I like nudes and golden tones. I have golden blonde hair, green eyes, and light skin tone. I am a nurse so I don't like to look too "made up" for work so this is just the right amount of color for me.

The pomegranate is quite bright, almost a blue based fuchsia. The coconut is a pretty and shimmery nude color. All smell like mango.
