As far as luxe lips go Yves Saint Laurent holds major rank. Rouge Pur Couture ($36.00 // Sephora) is the latest and is said to give luxurious, rich color that dresses the lips with intense hydration and antioxidant care.. all in one stroke.
The packaging is primarily gold with YSL written in black. There is a wonderful heft to it and looks edgy, nothing cheap feeling about this case.. just couture.
There are many shades available and I was sent two of them in 09 Rose Stiletto and 19 Fuchsia (which is listed on the Sephora website as limited edition).
09 Rose Stiletto // rich berry rose
19 Fuchsia // bright fuchsia pink
The formula is so smooth and light… it’s truly like letting silk drift over your lips. I’m not saying that to try and be dramatic – that’s literally what it feels like. In these two shades one stroke really does give you completely opaque pigment and creamy, comfortable wear. Wear time was around 4 hours, which is usual for me and lipstick – less if I have something to eat or drink. A slight stain was left behind, which is something I like because even if I apply a clear balm over-top it still is something more than bare lips.
Which shade of YSL Rouge Pur Couture would you like to try?
Yves Saint Laurent can be purchased at Sephora, Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus and yslbeautyus.com.

They both look great on you. Rose Stilleto would be my pick. I love how creamy they look on the lips with the right amount of gloss!

Simply gorgeous! I only have a couple YSL lippies in my stash, and I adore the formula. Maybe I’ll pick up one-two of these too.

I really love that 09 Rose one, it doesn’t look too dark on you, it would be something I’d love to try out! I am looking for something a little dark for the fall time, and need a good one for my Halloween costume!

Both are great colors but 19 is something I’d be more likely to buy for myself!
