YSL The Bold High Pigment Lipstick Collection

“Bold color in one swipe. Ultra-pigmented satin lipstick with buildable shine finish. “

The YSL Rouge Pur Couture The Bold Lipstick collection features twelve beautifully intense pigment lipsticks, and the formula is described by YSL as being their most innovative formula yet, and the formula is enriched with Red Floral and Grape Oil to help lips feel comfortable, and moisturized for up to 10 hours.

Consumer Test Results

• 92% agree the Bold feels soft and silky on lips
• 98% agree the Bold glides effortlessly onto lips
• Up to 10 hour moisturized feel on lips

The signature finish is more reflective than a classic satin but more subtle than a high shine lip gloss. Choose the Bold for a provocative pop of color, daring daytime nude, or striking red lip.

Directions

• Define your lip contours with Touche Éclat All Over Brightening Pen (sold separately) before applying lip color for extra definition.
• Remove the cap and twist the bullet to expose the formula.
• Apply the lipstick directly to lips.

Each of the YSL Rouge Pur Couture The Bold Lipsticks are housed within a rectangular casing, with a gold chrome and black design, and the lipstick bullets are rounded, with a slanted tip.

The shape is surprising for such a pigmented lipstick formula. Usually, with the more pigmented, bolder lipsticks, you see a conventional pointed bullet shape, to allow for more precise application, and slanted bullets work well for more sheer lip formulas. So it’ll be interesting to read reviews, and see how the shape works for the super pigmented formula.
