Package:

The package is very chic and in my favorite color gold. The lipstick is quadratic. At the point where the lipstick closes, the logo from Yves Saint Laurent comes together on the bullet.

My own experience:

The formula is amazingly smooth and creamy. The lipstick is quite long lasting although I have to point out that the brightness from the color fates after about two hours. After having searched for the perfect fuchsia lipstick for so long, I was excited to find the perfect color in the product range from Yves Saint Laurent. Often lipsticks don't exactly match the color on the bullet but this one was completely satisfying. I'm super pleased about the color. 

The finish is satiny mat and as bonus point, the Rouge Pur Couture has 15 SPF. 

You can buy this lipstick in a lot of different shades on the Ici Paris XL website. The price tag is € 30,15 which is quite expensive but reasonable for its great quality.
