YSL Rouge Pur Couture Lipstick Swatch on Dark Skin & Review

The formula of this lip stick is nice and creamy so it glides on effortlessly. It also covers your lips with just one stroke, just as YSL claims. I found that this lipstick takes about 45 minutes to set but once it’s on, it doesn’t budge. Once it does set though, it is a little drying, but nothing worth taking it off over. I wore this lipstick for 5 hours before removing it. There is a bit of staining so it takes a little more effort to get this completely off.

Next up is No. 9 Rose Stiletto. When I first looked at this in the tube, I loved the color, however on my lips? not so much. It didn’t glide on as smoothly as the fuchsia one did and it wasn’t as opaque. This one didn’t transfer as much while drinking. It did initially stay moisturizing longer than the fuchsia however once it dried, it was dryyyyyyyyy. So much that I could only stand to wear it for a couple hours before I had to take it off. There was also a bit of staining with this one.

I’d recommend wearing a lip balm or moisturizer underneath these because they do get dry. 

Both lipsticks retail for $36 and can be purchased from yslbeautyus.com and sephora.com.
