The Yves Saint Laurent (“YSL”) LOVESHINE Plumping Lip Oil Gloss in shade 02 “Lucky Moonstone” is a premium hybrid of treatment and high-shine gloss designed to deliver both intense gloss finish and visible lip-plumping effect. According to the product information, the formula offers up to 8 hours of glass-like shine with an oil-infused base, and claims “24 h hydration” for a visibly fuller pout.
Shade number: 02, named “Lucky Moonstone”.
The colour is described as a sheer glossy light pink. Because the finish is translucent and ultra-glossy rather than opaque, the wearer’s natural lip tone will influence the final look — expect a soft light pink gloss rather than heavy colour.
With its high-shine oil texture, Lucky Moonstone gives a luminous, glossy “wet-lip” effect while still maintaining that lightly tinted, wearable look.
Oil-Infused Treatment Base (≈ 95 % oils):
The formula is comprised largely of oils—approximately 95%—so the finish is more like a lip-oil gloss hybrid than a standard thick gloss. Y
Plumping Complex with Hyaluronic Acid + Ginger & Pepper Oils:
Hyaluronic acid is present to deliver hydration and help lips appear smoother and plumper.
Stimulating ginger oil and pepper oils spark a mild tingling/spicy sensation intended to boost blood flow and enhance the “puffed-up” look of the lips. High-Shine, Glossy Finish with Non-Sticky Feel:
The finish is described as “buildable sirupy colour in the most intense level of shine” across the YSL LOVESHINE range.
Non-sticky and cushion-soft texture thanks to the oil-rich base and the ‘plush’ applicator. YSL+1
Comfort and Care Elements: Fig Pulp + Moisture Support:
The formula also includes fig-pulp extract from YSL’s Ourika Community Gardens (a sourcing reference) which is marketed for soothing comfort.
Claims for up to 24 hours of hydration in some retail descriptions.
Provides a gloss-intense, wet-lip glow that elevates the lips visibly.
Gives lips a plumper, bouncier appearance, thanks to the plumping complex and oil-rich formulation.
Feels comfortable and lightweight—less density than a heavy cream gloss—so you can wear it alone or over lipstick.
Sheer tint like Lucky Moonstone means it works for many occasions—daily wear, layering, or as a top-coat over another lip colour.
The lavish packaging and luxe feel align with YSL’s couture beauty aesthetic.
Because the finish is quite glossy and oil-rich, you’ll want to ensure lips are exfoliated or smooth beforehand to avoid gloss collecting in fine lines.
Use one gentle swipe for a subtle light pink gloss; for a more saturated look, layer a second coat or apply over a complementary lip liner.
The plush, oversized wand is designed to cushion the lips—start from the centre of your upper lip and glide to the corners, then repeat on the lower lip.
If using over another lip colour, apply the base lip colour first, then top with Lucky Moonstone to add shine and dimension.
Because of the plumping effect (the tingling/spicy sensation), those with highly sensitive lips may want to test first—some users have reported a strong tingling effect.
The plumping effect is tied to active stimulating oils, so expect a tingling sensation; for some users, this may be more intense than anticipated. Example user comment:
“the tingling sensation is very strong… like you rub a very hot chilli on your lip.”
Because it is oil-based and high-shine, wear time may be shorter than a matte long-wear lipstick; you may need reapplication after eating or drinking.
The sheer finish means that the final shade will vary significantly based on natural lip tone; if you prefer full colour opacity, this may not be the ideal choice.
Gloss migration: as with many oil glosses, there is potential for movement or feathering at the edges if you pout or talk a lot—lining the lips beforehand can help.
In summary, the YSL LOVESHINE Plumping Lip Oil Gloss in shade 02 Lucky Moonstone is a luxurious, oil-rich gloss that gives a sheer light-pink tint with an ultra-glossy, ‘wet’ finish and plumping effect. With its premium formula combining hyaluronic acid, stimulating oils and rich lip-care ingredients, it bridges beauty and treatment. If you’re looking for something that elevates your lip look with shine and dimension—not just colour—this is a strong option. Just keep in mind the tingle, the oil-based texture and that the effect is more about shine and sheen than bold, opaque pigment.
