Nu Transgression (156)

YSL Nu Transgression (156) Rouge Pur Couture SPF15 Lipstick ($38.00 for 0.13 oz.) is a soft, medium coral with muted, warm undertones and a lightly glossy, cream finish. It had a lightweight, thin consistency that felt creamy and smooth as it glided comfortably across my lips, but it didn’t settle noticeably in my lip lines. The lipstick had opaque pigmentation that adhered evenly and stayed on well for four hours while feeling moisturizing to wear.

Formula Overview

$38.00/0.13 oz. - $292.31 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have "rich color with intense hydration ... in just one stroke." The lipstick has moderate slip--some shades are fairly emollient and can feel slippery during wear, while many are creamy but adhere well enough.

I've found that more mid-tone and deeper shades have better applications with smoother, more forgiving color that was semi-opaque or higher in coverage. Some of the lighter and the very deepest shades were more prone to settling into lip lines or yielding more medium to semi-opaque coverage.

The wear ranged from four to six hours on average. I found the formula was usually on the hydrating side. There was a sweet, floral scent with a very subtle taste, though I felt like it sometimes gave me a taste and other times, I didn't notice anything.

Nu Inattendu (157)

YSL Nu Inattendu (157) Rouge Pur Couture SPF15 Lipstick ($38.00 for 0.13 oz.) is a muted, light-medium copper with warm, red undertones and a natural sheen. It was richly pigmented with a smooth, lightweight consistency that glided readily over my lips and looked glossier than it felt, as it wasn’t that slippery. It wore nicely for four and a half hours and felt hydrating over time.
