I am not sure I can help much with your decision however I swatched a couple on my hands. I will try to PM you pics that are still on my phone later today. A few are rather sheer but I bought one called Organdy Prune I think ( @work) and it swatched beautifully. I am not able to open a few glosses for a while but I think you may love that color! HTH

I agree. This one looks very dark in the tube, but it's fairly sheer on the lips- a soft, shimmery raisin. My favourite of the bunch.

For anyone looking, Rosy Blush is on YSL's website this morning:

As gorgeous as it is, I am skipping as based on online swatches I don't think it will show up on my skin that well. Though I almost want it for the packaging alone!

I re-ordered Blush no. 6 which is probably my best blush -- for my skin and colouring. I left it in Italy. argh.

I picked up the glossy stain in Bourgogne Artistique and it is truly perfect. This is my first glossy stain and it's very beautiful and comfortable to wear. The color is also divine- it reminds me of a deeper version of Urban Decay's Manic. I'm definitely going to check out a few more of these

out of all the lippies you mention, I think from looking at your pic, that no. 2, 4, 13 might not be the best. As for the rest, I love them all.. lol. I think Fauborg peach no. 30 is more flattering than no. 13 which I find too yellow. My fave is no. 29 Opera Rose.. and No. 27 --which has peach but is a pinky peach. Touch eclat foundation is lovely as is the Lilac palette. You have great taste my dear!

oh I just recently purchased Rose Asarine.. a red pink.. which is gorgeous too. I agree with Katred, that the highliter Eclat will be great if you love the foundation.

Thank you so much for the advice, I appreciate it!! :) I am obsessed with the YSL foundation, I haven't tried any foundation that comes close to that one, for me.

On Valentine's Day, I bought myself a gift which was #11 Rose Culte (I think it's spelled) and it's a delicious colour! I love the texture and smell of the lipsticks.

I'm going to the L'Oreal Warehouse sale in March so I'm really excited to buy some YSL goodies.

I don't have Rose Culte but Rouge Asarine is nothing like Girl About Town, at least on me. On me it's very red with just a little bit of strawberry to it, like looking at my full face you would just think "red" if that makes sense lol

GAT is a fuschia more than red, rose culte is a hot pink fuschia... and RA is a strawberry red, imo. Of course a lot depends on your own lip pigmentation and chemistry - I have all three... and of the three, GAT is the least loved.

I went by the YSL counter the other day in a hurry. Having been told that my country didn't get the spring look, I had not taken a closer look at the colors for months. Suddenly my eyes fell on Rose Asarine and Rouge Pablo! I bought both on the spot!

It really is beautiful! I'm looking forward to wear mine. Which nail polish do you wear? It goes very well with the lipstick.

I stopped wearing buying lipgloss like a year ago and decided to try YSL Rouge Volupte lipgloss just out of curiosity and absolutely fell in love! I still prefer lipstick but I did buy 1 of the lipglosses.

I bought the blush last month in the special packaging. It is beautiful, and suits my colouring too. Hope you get your new one soon! I swatched Rose Asarine. Yup, it is more red, pink red, rather than hot pink. As for the new glosses, I'm lemming for 206 Fuchsia Oran. But I'm also on a gloss-no-buy..
