YSL Nu Incongru (12) Rouge Pur Couture The Slim Matte Lipstick

Nu Incongru (12)

YSL Nu Incongru (12) Rouge Pur Couture The Slim Matte Lipstick ($39.00 for 0.08 oz.) is a dark pink with moderate, warm undertones and a matte finish. The texture was incredibly smooth and lightweight with more of a velvety creaminess, which enabled the product to apply evenly and skate across my lips.

It had opaque pigmentation in a single layer, which wore well for over six hours and felt non-drying. There was a touch of product that settled into my deeper lip lines in the photo but wasn’t enough to be visible in person–it also seemed to smooth out as it wore.

Formula Overview

$39.00/0.08 oz. - $487.50 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to be "weightless" and "non-drying" that "stays put all day" with "high-pigmented matte color." The texture has a smooth, velvety consistency--it glided on readily but didn't feel wet or traditionally creamy, more like a silicone-based primer. The majority of the shades applied evenly, didn't separate along my lip lines, and were lightweight and comfortable to wear.

The pigmentation was mostly opaque to opaque, and the shade range seemed to pull more mid-tone and deeper with a fair number of red-based shades. As a result, numerous shades lasted six hours or longer with red-based shades leaving very strong stains behind (even into the next day, my lips were often pink-to-fuchsia!). Some shades seemed to go on and on and on because of the color itself and the underlying staining power! The formula was non-drying as promised.

The diamond-shaped bullet may take a use or two to get the hang of, but I didn't find it difficult to use at all. The triangular point did work particularly well for getting a sharper cupid's bow shape, if desired. The formula had a floral scent that was barely detectable while on and no discernible taste.

YSL Rose Curieux (14) Rouge Pur Couture The Slim Matte Lipstick

Rose Curieux (14)

YSL Rose Curieux (14) Rouge Pur Couture The Slim Matte Lipstick ($39.00 for 0.08 oz.) is a deep, red-coral with subtle, warm undertones and a matte finish. The texture was smooth and velvety with a thin, lightweight feel on my lips, but the product was more prone to catching on any natural lip texture I had and pulled into my deeper lip lines.

It looked drier than it felt, though. It had mostly opaque pigmentation that stayed on well for over six hours, left a strong stain behind, and felt neither drying nor hydrating.
