YSL Loveshine Plumping Lip Oil Gloss 01

The **Yves Saint Laurent (YSL) LOVESHINE Plumping Lip Oil Gloss in shade 01 Thunder Stealer is a high-end hybrid of lip oil and gloss that combines striking shine with cosmetic plumping and lip-care benefits. According to the official product description, it delivers “8 hours of plumping hydration” and a “long-lasting glassy shine”

Shade Details – 01 Thunder Stealer

Shade 01, “Thunder Stealer,” occupies the first position among the ten-shade LOVESHINE plumping gloss range. Reviewers describe it as a sheer icy-lavender shimmer finish with fine golden particles. For example:

“Color: 1 Thunder Stealer is a stunning lilac with gold shimmer.”

On the lips this translates into a translucent, cool-toned lavender veil with glass-like shine rather than heavy opaque colour. Because the pigment is light, the underlying lip tone will influence the final look.

Key Features & Technology

Oil-Infused Formula (≈95% oils): The gloss boasts a 95 % oil-infused base, designed to moisturise and create that watery-high gloss finish. 

Plumping Support – Hyaluronic Acid + Ginger & Pepper Oils:

• The formula incorporates hyaluronic acid, intended to help lips look smoother and hydrated.

• Stimulating oils (ginger and pepper) provide a mild warming/tingle sensation which is credited with creating a “puffier” appearance.
  Treat-and-Wear Hybrid: The product functions as both a treatment (with conditioning oils, fig-pulp extract from YSL’s Ourika Community Gardens) and a high-shine finishing gloss.

• High-Shine, Non-Sticky Finish: YSL emphasizes the “most intense level of shine” in the LOVESHINE line, with a non-sticky feel. 

Benefits at a Glance

• Instantly delivers a glass-like shine to lips.

• Visibly plumper and bouncier-looking lips thanks to the plumping complex.

• Smoothes and hydrates lips by delivering moisture and oil care (up to 24 h hydration claimed). 

• Lightweight oil-gloss texture that allows for layering or solo wear.

• Elegant couture style tube with a plush, oversize wand for comfortable application. 

Texture & Application Tips

• Apply one coat for a subtle, sheer wash of icy lavender shimmer (especially effective if you already have naturally pink lips). For more impact, layer 2–3 coats to heighten gloss and hint of tint.

• Because it’s an oil-gloss hybrid, slightly raise the corners of your lips to prevent the gloss from migrating or pooling in fine lines.

• The wand is described as “jumbo, plush” for a cushion-soft feel—start at the centre of the lips and glide toward the corners.

• If you already wear a lip liner or lip colour underneath, you can apply this gloss as the final top coat for added shine and plump-look enhancement.

• Because of the lavender/gold shimmer and cool undertone of 01 Thunder Stealer, it pairs especially well with pale to medium skin tones where a subtle “frosted” effect is desired—or use over a warmer lipstick to create contrast.

What to Know (and Consider)

• The plumping effect comes with a tingling/we-warm sensation:

  “the tingling sensation is very strong… like you rub a very hot chilli on your lip.

  If your lips are sensitive, you might wish to patch-test first.

• Because of the oil base, expect some transfer and that the gloss finish may diminish after a drink or meal—though the hydrating and plumping benefits remain.

• The translucent shade means that this gloss may appear different depending on natural lip colour and will not offer full opacity.

• If you prefer strictly “lip treatment” feel without plumping tingle, this may feel more cosmetic/treatment hybrid than a pure balm.

Summary

In short, the YSL LOVESHINE Plumping Lip Oil Gloss in 01 Thunder Stealer brings together high-fashion shine with lip-care ingredients. It offers a sheer icy-lavender shimmer finish, a conditioning oil-based texture and a visible “plumped” look thanks to its hyaluronic acid and spicy oil blend. If you’re after a luxe gloss that looks elegant, gives a full-lip effect, and doesn’t feel heavy or sticky, this is a strong contender—just be aware of the tingle and the finish’s wear characteristics.
