Editor’s Pick: You Need this Red YSL Beauty Lipstick for Your Next Date Night

To know me is to know that I am a red lipstick aficionado. My obsession with red lipsticks came on in the 80s when I knew I was Sade’s long lost sister. (In my mind…) I had the ponytail, bold eyebrows and of course the requisite red lip.

The 80s have come and gone, but I still love a fabulous red lipstick. And, I found a new one that breaks all barriers. It’s liquid, but not matte. It’s intense, but not overbearing. It’s high-shine, but not sticky. It’s slick like a new patent leather Louboutin pump. Need I say more? My precious new red lipstick bestie is YSL Beauty Glossy Stain #9 – Rouge Laque.
