It is worth it. Lasts all day with reapplication after meals.

Hi Teach1953- The product is available at select Sephora Stores, we suggest using our Find In Store feature on our website or contacting your local store to confirm inventory.

Early May 2012, I saw some in SOME stores in both Central California and Connecticut. Also, Karlasugar has good on arm & several lip swatches. (Just, be aware the color on the lip is usually not exactly like the container or skin swatch).

I purchased mine in a store about three weeks ago. I'm in NorCal.

YSL Glossy Stain should be in Sephora stores by now.

As of last week, these were in stock at my Sephora store. They didn't have the beige one though.

Check out reviewer or drivel about frivol websites. They have links to other good blogs with swatches.

I searched blogs for swatches. There are plenty of YSL glossy stain addicts out there

I have 15 and it's perfect. it looks a lot different when you put it on. the girl who helped me put it on with a lip brush which made it a different color than when I swip it on from the applicator. actually I like the Color from the applicator better. However, the gloss is more wet than shine.

I wear 15, i use very little for day time and somestime add a little chap stip or clear gloss. For night I use heaver and have received many compliments. I have dark blonde hair, brown eyes med complex.

I love mine, looked at bottom and there is a 12, no color name..a great pinky-coral.

# 17 would be your perfect choice.

any of these help?

look at my posting under the ratings section for how it looks under different light.

I think #3 is a very natural, professional work look. You might start there.

Natural and daytime, as in, pale pink putty or a nice bright pink, but not too over the top bright? The first I described would be #19, one of the palest of them all, Beige Aquarelle... I like #17 Encre Rose, because it is a slightly bright pink but it is definitely toned down enough so it doesn't look "TOO" harsh/loud...

i have dark brown hair, and very fair skin. i have and love #3, #10, and #17. i'd say #3 is definitely the most every-day matches everything perfect wearable color. you'll love it!

i agree nbr 15 is a beautiful rosy pink shade it is my favorite i i have med skin tone, blond hair and hazel eyes and it looks great, for a little brighter i like nbr 17 it more pink, very pretty , but brighter.

I have auburn hair, gray/blue eyes, and very fair skin and the Rose Vinyl is my favorite shade to date. It is a natural rose color that compliments my coloring and is appropriate for daytime wear. You might try that one, it's beautiful.

For going out, definitely try out the bright fuchsia color. For everyday school or work, maybe a nude beige.

# 5 and 20 work on me. I do have very pigmented lips so YMMV.

My fair skin is particularly bright because of the Physician's Formula brightening powders I use (and the whiteners because of my PCOS). I love red lipstick because the golden age of Hollywood stars have influenced me since childhood- HOWEVER this doesn't work for everybody. So I'll recommend #9 Rouge Laque because it''s a solid red with light coral undertones, #11 Rouge Gouache because of the mauve undertones, and # 14 Fuchsia Dore because pink/lavender will make you appear less gaunt depending on your facial structure.

Online there was a beautiful redhead with your coloring who got #4 & 20. 4 was an absolute knockout on her. 20 was beautiful, but the berry-purple of 4 really brought her to that "movie star gorgeous" that you want from a $35 lip gloss.
I can't find the website now. Honestly, I don't think you can go wrong with a violet under tone. If you want a red--11 would be beautiful: its a great soft slight-blue/violet red.

I'm a huge fan of #2 brun glace.

No. 17 is a pretty bright pink. Hot pink comes to mind as a description. I have very fair skin and the color really pops. If you are looking for bright, it's a great color. If you aren't then another color would suit you better.

#17 isn't bright. You can choose the color intensity by layering the product. It's a cooler pink tone.

It's a natural and bright. It's universal. I know it's hard to understand. but it's a little bit in the middle. It's beautiful color, and it is definitely a wearable color for office or school.

#17 is my favorite because I didn't want anything too bright or NEON as you say- I think it's the perfect pink that would be acceptable during the daytime... Here is my photo with it on-

Here's a swatch as compared to some other colors. It's got a lot of fushia in it without being completely neon.

check out my posting on the ratings section for how the colors look in different light.

I am almost positive it is #15, Vinyl Rose.

I am almost positive the lip colour in the photo is #15, Rose Vinyl.

Your coloring sounds similar to mine and I found that 12 is good for a bright coral/reddish color, and for a stand-by-looks-good-with-everything I'd suggest 17.

Corail Aquatique would look amazing on you.

Hi,

The colors are all great and have a lot of pigment! I would not worry too much about the shine.

No worries on it being too glossy. It has a nice shine, not a really heavy gloss.

It sounds Iike you and I might have similar coloring. I have 10, 16, and 17. 10 is a bright red, appears neutral on me. I've heard the same thing said about #20 and bought that initially, but once applied on my heavily pigmented lips appeared orange-ish thus making my teeth appear yellow. 16 is a pretty hot pink/mauve. 17 looks über light but is actually a cool pink. This is my go-to color.

I would really suggest swatching these on your lips and not your arm in a store. Put a coat on, spread well, then browse Sephora for a couple of minutes before committing to a shade. The reason I say this is because the shades do deepen after a couple of minutes.

Don't expect the lighter shades to leave a heavy stain if your lips are pretty pigmented. The reds and purples do however leave a nice stain that stays for about 8 hours if not more.

I have the palest skin on the planet but with a yellow undertone & blue eyes. My lips are really pigmented too. I love the colors #12 & #15, both are softly pigmented and glossy, your lips won't look neon !
