It had a semi-opaque color payout in a single layer, which was slightly more coverage than marketed. There was a small product that got stuck in my deeper lip lines, although it wasn’t enough to be seen from a normal viewing distance. This shade lasted well for three and a half hours and was comfortable to the touch as the formula was slightly moisturizing.

Formula overview
$ 38.00 / 0.11 oz. – – $ 345.45 per ounce
The formula is said to be “deeply moisturizing” and “melt” with a “splash of color” on the lips and provide long-term moisture. It is described as “medium-sized” and “irreverently shiny”. The color coverage was typically medium as described, although some of the deeper shades were more buildable for a semi-opaque coverage.
They’re a very, very creamy, emollient formula; They slide if they melt against the lips during application, and the application feels luxurious but can be easily over-applied. It’s just the kind of texture that lends itself to over-application without adding more opacity. So I recommend being careful to make sure each tube is being used adequately. Fortunately, they don’t feel thick or overly slippery at one point, so it doesn’t feel like the lipstick is constantly moving while you wear it.
They have a high gloss, almost glossy finish that often smoothed my lip lines without settling in, and the latter made it more impressive due to the amount of color and slip. The wearing time varied from shade to shade, but typically ended up between three and five hours. Some shades leave a faint stain – usually the medium and darker shades. The formula has a sweet mango scent but no discernible taste.

YSL Corail Spontini (15) Rouge Volupte Shine oil in a stickYSL Corail Spontini (15) Rouge Volupte Shine oil in a stick ($ 38.00 for 0.11 oz.) Is a medium pink peach with moderate, warm undertones and a bright finish. It had medium pigmentation in a single layer as described and was applied evenly to my lips without noticing any imperfections. There was a hint of product that got stuck in my deeper lip lines, although I couldn’t see this in person, only in the close-ups.
The texture was bland – a fair bit of slip, almost felt like it was melting on my lips – and light with a smooth, thin feel on my lips (but not clingy). It wore well for three hours and felt moisturizing over time.
