YSL fall 2017 nail polish Studio 54 review

YSL fall 2017 nail polish collection Studio 54 review

The YSL fall 2017 nail polish collection is here! The YSL Studio 54 nail polish collection for the fall 2017 season is sparkling, dazzling, and so much fun! Love!

Yves Saint Laurent has introduced two sparkling nail polish hues for the upcoming cool weather season. “Bronze Fever” which is a sparkling bronze polish, and “Studio Silver” which is a dazzling white-silver glitter polish, are both glittering nail polishes which sparkle, shine, and make you want to dance the night away!

Metallics are still a hot trend as we move into the fall 2017 season. They graced the fall runways, and they are still hot on the street. Store buyers are also diving into the metallic trend and we will see metallic touches on apparel for the fall season as well as full blown metallic handbags, shoes, and accessories. This means rocking some sparkles on our nails is an easy way to wear the metallic trend everyday, without needing to think about it. Plus, who doesn’t want a party on their nails! Love it!

Here is my review of both nail polish colors from the YSL Studio 54 fall 2017 nail polish collection!

YSL fall 2017 nail polish: Bronze Fever

YSL bronze fever nail polish fall 2017 review

YSL Bronze Fever is my favorite of the two Studio 54 nail polish colors from Yves Saint Laurent for fall 2017. This is a beautiful sparkling bronze hue which is easy to wear during the day. Of course, the sparkles make it extremely festive for evening occasions as well!

I tested out YSL Bronze Fever with one base coat, and two coats of color. I did not use a top coat. The glitter in the polish helps make it really strong, so this nail polish does not chip! It is always nice to have polish on which is worry-free; it makes life a bit easier!

The bronze hue is a great neutral for the autumn season. It can easily be worn with any fall color palette; and it sparkles, so what’s not to love!!

YSL fall 2017 nail polish: Studio Silver

ysl nail polish studio silver fall 2017 review

YSL Studio Silver is a pale, sparkling glitter polish which really kicks up the glitz under lights or direct sun. This is a fun nail polish which I prefer to think of  as perfect for special occasions, or nighttime activities. Of course, it can also be worn during the day, I just prefer it for actual events.

I tested out Studio Silver by YSL with one base coat, and two coats of color. The Studio Silver glitter is a bit courser then the Bronze Fever glitter, so I found without a top coat, it has a bit too much texture; which is on the scratchy side. After one day, I applied a top coat and the texture/scratchy issue disappeared. I highly recommend using a top coat with this one!

With two coats, Studio Silver is a fabulous stand-alone nail polish color. I found with one coat, it could double as a glittering topper for black or vampy nail polish colors. Of course, even with one coat, you would need to apply a top coat to keep it from being scratchy.

Studio Silver is a color I plan to use more as the holiday season approaches. I like it for parties, or as a way to glitz up very dark nail polish. For everyday wear during the fall season, I plan to wear Bronze Fever. In fact, for this transitional period between summer and fall, Bronze Fever is my go-to polish! Love it!

The fall 2017 Studio 54 beauty collection is limited edition, so if you want to add some fun to your fall wardrobe, grab it now!

What do you think of the two nail polish colors from the YSL fall 2017 nail polish collection? Which color is your favorite?


YSL Asphalt Grey nail polish spring 2017 review

Nail polish for spring 2017 is quite different than in previous spring seasons. We are seeing a large number of grey nail polishes, pale pinks, whites, and neons for the warm weather season. While there are many shades of grey out there in the nail polish marketplace, none quite compare to the medium-dark grey hue created by YSL for the spring 2017 season.

YSL Asphalt Grey nail polish is in the perfect place on the grey color wheel. It is not too dark, nor is it too light. It is just right.

This is the first time I have purchased nail polish by YSL. I have used a few of their cosmetics before, but never before have I tried Yves Saint Laurent nail colour. The nail polish went on smoothly, and the brush was a good, manageable size to work with. With two coats, YSL nail polish not streaky; and left a solid, smooth color on my nails. Love!

I tested out YSL Asphalt Grey nail polish for spring 2017 with one base coat, two coats of color, and no top coat. The polish last six days before chipping. This is a decent length of time considering I was not wearing a top coat.

YSL Grey Asphalt is a great nail colour for the spring 2017 season. It is a neutral hue; making it easy to wear with any of the seasons color palettes, plus, there is something fresh about the color grey. I know, grey? fresh? Yup. It feels fresh and right this season. Who knew?

Yves Saint Laurent Volupte Sheer Candy in Prune Frappee review

As you know, beige, golden tones, and vampy colors are all the rage in lipstick for the spring 2017 season. While I enjoy wearing these colors, sometimes I want the purple look from the vampy trend, in a not-so-vampy- hue.

When I spotted YSL’s Volupte Sheer Candy lipstick in Prune Frappee, I knew it was the perfect color for days when I want to wear purple lipstick without being vampy.

This is the first time I have purchased YSL’s sheer lipstick. Several of my friends love it, so I thought I would give it a try. I am really happy with my purchase. YSL’s Volupte Sheer Candy lipstick glides on smoothly leaving even, sheer color on my lips. The formula is moisturizing, which is key for lipstick. Nothing is more annoying than lipstick which dries out my lips!

While I tend to shop Chanel’s sheer listick colors first, since they are always on trend, I have fallen in love with YSL’s sheer lipstick. I am looking forward to seeing the new colors they come out with each season. In addition, I feel like YSL has a nice collection of colors which are classic and ideal for supplementing my seasonal collection.

You can find Yves Saint Laurent Volupte Sheer Candy lipstick online here. My color is 8 Plum Frappee, or Iced Plum.
