On your marks, get set, drooooooooooool….
Probably my favourite thing about every season, getting the new YSL collection.. Bohemian Chic is a gorgeous array of perfect corals and delicate pinks, with just a sprinkle of fuchsia. I genuinely believe this is my favourite seasonal collection from YSL thus far that I’ve had the pleasure of reviewing, these colours are ridiculously divine and oh so prettifying.
As the collection literally just landed on my doorstep, this is just a swatches post for all those too impatient to wait for the real, weighty reviews. However I have been wearing some of the colours already so can provide a teeny bit of input..
Rouge Pur Couture
Only one lipstick from above is part of the actual Bohemian Chic Spring Collection, the others are simply new Spring releases within the Rouge Pur Couture range.

No23 Corail Poetique
No24 Blond Ingenu
No25 Taupe Raphael
Left to Right: No26 Rose Libertin, No25 Taupe Raphael, No24 Blond Ingenu and No23 Corial Poetique.
If you can’t guess from the slightly grubbier bullet, my favourite is Corial Poetique, so much so that I couldn’t even wait for it to be photographed before trying it on! I have been wearing this all day and it is lovely. Lasts pretty good too, and the texture (of all these lipsticks) is a creamy light matte, which just so happens to be my preference of late. Beautiful.
Manicure Couture No5 Duo Favorite Chic
Time to start practicing the now iconic YSL mani.. Bohemian Chic boasts this gorgeous nail varnish duo that comes with an angled brush for multi purpose use.
This is the first time I’ve attempted doing my tips freehand with the angled brush, it’s easier than a regular brush but I definitely need a little more practice..

Palette Pink Celebration (face highlighter)
Creme de Blush
I do love a cream blush, admittedly these are the ones that set to a powder finish (not really my preference for a cream blush) but I’ve found they aren’t matte at all, the powder finish is actually pretty undetectable on the skin. Easy to apply and builds beautifully. Very fresh and radiant!
Again, similar to the lipsticks only the shade directly below is part of the Bohemian Chic collection, the remainders are new Spring releases!
No5 Temptation Fuchsia (part of Bohemian Chic collection)
No1 Velvety Peach
No2 Powdery Rose
Left to Right: No5 Temptation Fuchsia, No2 Powdery Rose and No1 Velvety Peach.
You may notice that there are no eye pieces included above, I actually requested no eye palettes or shadows as it was another that contained a blue and I am up to my eyeballs in blue Spring collections so decided to skip it this year.. The lips and cheek products were clearly the stand out gems for me.
Full reviews should be up next week…
