YSL Beauty is synonymous with nonchalant elegance, the kind that’s inherent rather than manufactured – so that’s likely why the story about a guy who won an enormous basket full of YSL Beauty products at work and gave it to his co-worker rather than taking it home to his wife went viral on TikTok, Instagram, X and Reddit. Seriously, if your partner scores any one of these products below and doesn’t save it for you, heads should roll.

These are just some of the iconic YSL Beauty products that were likely in that infamous basket. Make sure you get your hands on them for cocktail hours, weddings, rooftop parties, brunch, birthday parties, and garden strolls under the star-splashed summer skies:

Couture Mini Clutch – Signature YSL
The Couture Mini YSL Clutch Luxury Eyeshadow Palette is sheer style in the palm of your hand, and offers lovely, intense pigments for the long haul when you go out and want your eye makeup to last just as long as you do. Unexplored Garden is ideal for summer if you like summery greens, but you have plenty of other color choices too. This is a couture eyeshadow quad with satin, matte, metallic, and shimmer options for you to play around with. After all, artists love a good palette.

Skin Affair Soft Glow Cushion Foundation – The Extraordinary Basics
Everything laudable begins with a great foundation, so make sure yours imbues your visage with a soft glow and a nourishing, blend-able formula like this Skin Affair Soft Glow Cushion Foundation. You’ll be off to a perfect start with this lightweight, medium-coverage cushion foundation that comes in multiple shades to suit every beauty.

Candy Glaze Lip Gloss Stick – Double Care Balm
The Candy Glaze Lip Gloss glides on like butter and delivers a shimmery-but-subtle effect that mesmerizes in a variety of hues. The best part? It lasts through multiple libations and conversations, so you can swipe it on and know that you’re all set. This lipstick has the beneficial care of a balm combined with a glassy shine in multiple shades.

Loveshine Plumping Lip Oil Gloss – Cherry Flash
This high shine caring lip gloss has a juicy shine and hydrates through all weather. The Loveshine Plumping Lip Oil Gloss has a light, fruity flavor that will be eminently kissable. Brilliance, comfort, hydration…this is truly ingenuity in a lip gloss. It imparts a delightful little zing to let you know that it’s working to plump up the volume, and it pulls triple duty by soothing lips and imparting color as well. Why not have it all?

Make Me Blush – Tres Cheek
Whether you’re blushing or causing others to blush, this is exactly how you want to be cheeky when it all goes down. Make Me Blush is YSL’s tribute to daredevils of the heart. Get flushed with excitement in the very best of ways with this ultra-enchanting cheek color that lasts 24 hours, is buildable and blurring, and is powdery soft with satin and matte finishes. This is Dua Lipa-approved via a brand collab.


Lash Latex Mascara – Your New Favorite
Mascara is absolutely a beauty staple, and the YSL Beauty Lash Latex Mascara lengthens, sculpts, separates, and coats your eyelashes with rich, long-lasting color for 24 hours. This mascara isn’t overly touted as waterproof or smudge-proof, but I put it to the sweat test in NYC’s 90-degree heat and humidity, and it indeed passed with flying colors. A long wand is surprisingly delightful for application, and I can also attest that this mascara’s formula is fantastic for sensitive eyes. Available in black.
YSL Beauty is ideal for all seasons, and for all the right reasons.
