I’ve used colour 52 for years and usually buy from John Lewis. I cannot find it in stock anywhere! All over the internet! Is it discontinued?

I don't know whether the YSL was discontinued but Estee Lauder in Blush Tease (Hi-Lustre Pure Color Envy Lipstick) is very similar and it's part of the permanent range. If you can't find what you want, look up this one to see if it might tidy you up until you find the other one.

Thanks Unicorn.

Thank you Moan. I saw that too and went to order it. It wouldn’t go through twice. Said it can’t complete transaction 😢

I think it’s been discontinued. Why the fuck do they do this!

I might go into JL tomorrow.

If you can no longer get it, here are some dupes -

Sorry, the link shows the wrong colour but they have #52.

Thank you so much Unicorn! Im bookmarking that!

I went to John Lewis this morning and they had 3 left! They were down to £28 and the YSL lady said they look like they will be discontinued. How sad.

There’s one left in that store. I’m in the South East. DM me if you want to know the store or I can go in and get it for you and post it to you.

Thank you for the offer but though I love coral I can't carry it near my face. I'm just too yellow to suit coral lipstick or blush. I'm the same shade as beeswax candles 😁
I do love coral though and I've just remembered I have something very similar to your #52 in a South Korean lipstick I bought ages ago. I'll see if I can dig it out to give you one more option. I wear mine with a blue gloss from Lâncome to tone it down.

Oh my god! This is awful news I love #52. I think the colour has altered slightly over the years and I preferred the original but it’s still my favourite go to lipstick. Why would they do this?

UnicornStarfish · 02/08/2023 14:06

I do have too many lipsticks... One more for you: Karadium in #4 Coral Chu. It's your exact colour but I think it was a limited edition so I'm not sure how easy you can get it now.

Same thing happened with Chanel recently. Discontinued a favourite bronzer of mine. It’s bizarre.

You’re amazing Unicorn, thank you!

Glad I could help! I know things we love getting discontinued is a bit crap but I always think it's because there was something in it that's probably a no-no now like a chemical that's not allowed anymore. That makes it easier for me to move on.

Cincinnatus · 02/08/2023 14:40

I didn’t even think of that. That’s very true. Hopefully there will be another shade that matches. If not, you’ve given me plenty of stand bys! Thank you kind person x
