My Love From Another Star Causes Lipstick Shortage [EDITED]

My Love From Another Star

Korean drama “My Love From Another Star” spawned a shortage in Yves Saint Laurent’s (YSL) Rouge Pur Couture No. 52 Rosy Coral color lipstick when female fans from all over the world clamored to get the same shade that Jeon Ji Hyun wore in the drama.

It is in such demand that right now you can buy the coveted item on sites like ebay.com for prices as high as $150. This lipstick typically costs $35 retail.

EDIT: It has been noted that Jeon Ji Hyun did NOT actually wear the YSL brand in the drama, and that it was mistakenly reported to be YSL, causing this confusion of worldwide frenzy for the lipstick. So does that still make you want the YSL lipstick?
