This article focuses on the Yves Saint Laurent Glossy Stain, specifically exploring the shades I own and providing detailed swatches and reviews. While the prompt mentions shade 218, I don't have that particular shade in my collection. Therefore, this article will showcase four shades I *do* own, providing a comprehensive overview of the YSL Glossy Stain formula and its performance across different undertones and intensities. I will touch upon the shades mentioned in the prompt (15, 5, 407, 610, 412, 440) where relevant, drawing comparisons and highlighting the unique qualities of each shade family within the YSL Glossy Stain range.
My YSL Glossy Stain Collection & Swatches:
Before diving into individual shade breakdowns, let's establish the core characteristics that define the YSL Glossy Stain formula. This lip product is renowned for its unique texture: a hybrid between a lip gloss and a lip stain. It offers a high-shine, glossy finish that doesn't feel sticky or heavy, while providing a long-lasting stain that persists even after the gloss fades. This makes it incredibly versatile, perfect for both everyday wear and more glamorous occasions. The pigmentation is generally buildable, allowing for sheer to full coverage depending on preference.
The four shades I'll be reviewing are:
* YSL Glossy Stain #15 Rose Vinyl: A cool-toned, medium pink.
* YSL Glossy Stain #5 Rouge Vintage: A pinkish-red. (Further details will be provided below)

1. YSL Glossy Stain #15 Rose Vinyl:
This cool-toned, medium pink is a versatile shade that suits a range of skin tones. The "Rose Vinyl" name accurately describes the color; it's a vibrant, yet refined pink with a slight blue undertone that prevents it from looking too saccharine. The formula, as expected, is incredibly smooth and comfortable. It glides on effortlessly and leaves a beautiful, glossy finish that lasts for several hours. The stain persists even after the gloss wears off, leaving a subtle pink tint to the lips. This is a perfect everyday shade for those who prefer a more natural, yet polished look.
