In a world full of tweakments and Photoshop, it’s hard to not get wrapped up in wondering if a plumper lip look is something you want for yourself, speaking from experience. The concept of getting filler is something that always plays on my mind, which is why I often look for filler-like effects when I’m restocking my make-up bag. That being said, one product I would undoubtedly choose as my desert island item would be lip oil. From the nourishment to the glossy finish to the addictive scent, to say I’m a lip oil connoisseur would be an understatement.

So, when I spotted YSL’s plumping lip gloss oil, the time spent deciding if I needed to try it was ridiculously short. The combination of a plumping lip oil available in a selection of gorgeous nude shades was right up my street. I’d seen lots of reviews on this lip oil across social sites, including many raving about the nourishment and colour selection, but the plumping effects sang the loudest.

At first impressions, I was taken aback by how tingly this gloss felt on the lips. It’s certainly not an unpleasant feeling, particularly if you’re used to plumping lip glosses, but this formula gets to work straight away. Not only does this lip oil create the most perfect glossy lip, but the plumping action starts straight away and instantly changes the shape and fullness of the lip. The formula contains pepper and ginger oils to dramatically create a fuller, glossy lip, providing up to 24 hours of hydration. Since adding this product to my routine, I can’t go a day without it. My friends noticed a difference in my lips, and I can’t stop raving about this formula. I wear shade Mellow Mallow 3 and the flattering pinky nude suits me perfectly.
