YSL Rouge Pur Couture Lipstick - Review & Swatch

Sometime back on my trip to Pakistan I made a purchase at YSL's outlet at KLIA, Malaysia and I got some gifts with my purchase. YSL's Rouge Pur Couture was one of the gifts and let's see how I found the formula.
YSL Rouge Pur Couture Lipstick:
A new-generation lipstick inspired by Monsieur Saint Laurent’s iconic color palette—red, fuchsia and orange—in a collection of captivating couture shades that offer each complexion a customized look. Enveloped in a luxurious gold case designed by Creative Director Stefano Pilati, Rouge Pur Couture speaks elegance. Lips are saturated with intense, stay-true color, thanks to the Coloreveal Technology while natural extracts provide comforting moisture that lasts all day. Provides medium to full coverage with a radiant, satin finish.

Product Description & Packaging:
This lipstick comes in a gorgeous golden packaging made up of plastic. I have this lipstick in mini size and is shade 09 Rose Stiletto which is a gorgeous rosy pink shade.

Overall Experience:
First of all, if you know me, you would know that I do not go for high end cosmetics unless I am unable to find something really good but still I wanted to give YSL's highly raved lipstick a try. In this review, you will get to know my experience with this product as well as some alternates from our beloved drugstore / local brands' lipsticks.

YSL's Rouge Pur Couture lipstick stunned me on first application. The application is smooth, formula is moisturizing, it stays until I eat something and I would say an approximate wearing time of 4-5 hours, it does not feather out and it does not leave that ugly residue at the sides of the lips.

This lipsticks has a rosy shade and it also has a mild rosy scent which I really enjoy every time I wear this lipstick. The finish is semi matte and it does not dry out and enhance lines on the lips. Not to forget, it has a gorgeous and luxury looking packaging too.

Since this is a high end brand, it might not be very suitable when it comes to stay in a budget. But if you are lipstick lover who is going to finish the tube before it expires, you deserve to treat yourself with one of these beauties.

Overall, I am super in love with this lipsticks and I am glad I own this this gorgeousness.

Alternates: If you are living in Pakistan, you can get Signature Lipsticks by Luscious Cosmetics or you can give CSP's Pure Matt Lipsticks a try. Both of them are budget friendly and are in my good books. Since these brands are not available outside Pakistan, Sleek Makeup & Wet n Wild can work almost the same too.
