Lip stick review: YSL rouge pur couture 06

Hello everyone!

Today i will be doing a review on a lipstick i purchased the other day at the YSL counter, the lady was fairly helpful (and patient - as i tried about 7 different colours out hehe) and i eventually came to the decision of shade 06 in rouge pur couture. I was looking for a shade that i could wear everyday but wouldn't wash me out and i found exactly that!

Can i just start out by saying i LOVE LOVE LOVE the packaging as usual YSL have the gold packaging with the logo split between the two parts which can be annoying as you cant just slap on the lid because it can go a little funny - but I'm just weird like that - however this is very elegant and classy and i love to flop it out whenever i can (to show of a little ;). i also love how the luxurious gold packaging doubles as mirror handy

But getting on to the actual product, i have the shade 06 which is a pink toned neutral. On the lips i think it looks more or less identical as it does in the bullet and embellished into the bullet is the YSL logo, and i personally love it! If you haven't noticed I'm a bit of a sucker for packaging... but i cant help it!

The formula is super super super creamy which feels absolutely lovely on the lips and is moisturising however because of its formulation it means that it barely says on for 20 minuets! NOT GOOD. This is the only downfall i can find to this lipstick and I think is a perfect match for me and i think it would suit tones of skin tones so really it is universal. If this isn't the shade for you there is 30 to chose from, an excellent colour range! The lipstick had SPF 15 which is really good too and an extra bonus to the already amazing lip stick.

It looks beautiful even in swatch form! I would overall give YSL a thumbs up for this product as i love it. BUT and this is a big but it is a little steep on the price at £23.50 so a little more expensive than your average lipstick but i know it will definitely use it often and i think it is worth it.
