Is YSL polish worth $27 a bottle? Yep. You know why? Because it’s truly a luxury that’ll make you smile every single time you look down at your nails.

If you missed it when it came out last year, our Montreal friend Ommorphia did a lovely Tie & Dye review that you can check out here.

YSL polish (aka Yves Saint Laurent La Laque Couture Nail Lacquer) is available nationwide at YSL counters all over the place, Holt Renfrew, Hudson's Bay, and Sephora.com.

Do you have any YSL polish in your collection? If yes, how many shades? What's your favourite? If no, why not??
