Prime Beige (90)

YSL Prime Beige (90) Rouge Pur Couture SPF15 Lipstick ($36.00 for 0.13 oz.) is a medium, dusty pink with warm undertones and a satin finish. It had opaque pigmentation that applied evenly and smoothly across my lips in a single, fluid stroke. The texture was lightweight, creamy with moderate slip, but it didn’t feel too heavy or thick on my lips, so it was comfortable to wear. It stayed on well for four and a half hours and felt hydrating while worn.

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.

Rosewood Supreme (92)

YSL Rosewood Supreme (92) Rouge Pur Couture SPF15 Lipstick ($36.00 for 0.13 oz.) is a brighter, medium-dark pink-coral with warmer undertones and a cream finish. It had nearly opaque color coverage in one layer, which adhered evenly and glided easily across my lips. The lipstick had a lightweight texture that had some slip but didn’t slide around too readily during wear, so it felt comfortable and still had decent wear (four hours). I noticed the finish on this was more prone to emphasizing my lip lines–just a touch–compared to others in the formula.

Rouge Audacieux (93)

YSL Rouge Audacieux (93) Rouge Pur Couture SPF15 Lipstick ($36.00 for 0.13 oz.) is a deep red with subtle, cool undertones and a cream finish. The texture was smooth, creamy without being too thick or too slippery, and felt lightweight and comfortable on my lips. It had nearly full color coverage in one layer, and the color went on evenly and smoothly without emphasizing my lip lines or catching on any texture/imperfections. This shade stayed on beautifully for five and a half hours, left a faint stain behind, and was lightly hydrating over time.

I love Prime Beige (despite the fact it’s not even remotely beige!) but I already have at least 2 of the dupes and YSL lippies are upwards of $60 here, so nah.
