O hai! I’m sure by now you already know all about my thing for bright lips. Let’s kick it up a notch, shall we? This is YSL Rouge Pur Couture Lipstick in 7 Le Fuchsia ($37). Yes, they really did just call this colour “The Fuchsia,” as in you shall not have other fuchsia lipsticks besides this one. Behold…
YSL Rouge Pur Couture Lipstick in 7 Le Fuchsia
Before I say anything else, can I just say how I just love brand imprints on my lipstick? I don’t care if it’s drugstore or high end; I think all lipsticks should have the brands imprinted on the bullet.
How about a swatch? By the way, I’m so so pleased with how crisp this lip swatch was. I always worry that I’d ruin such a beautiful lipstick on a horrible lip swatching job. But I digress…
YSL Rouge Pur Couture Lipstick in 7 Le Fuchsia Swatch
YSL doesn’t mess around with this fuchsia. It is an opaque, bright blue pink that stops traffic, kicks ass and takes names. The finish is a soft matte, kinda like my favourite red lipstick. This colour, like all other blue-based pinks makes my teeth look like they’ve just been treated with Crest white strips.
The Rouge Pur Couture line has an SPF 15 and a perfume-y rose scent that lingers for about 10 minutes. My nose doesn’t like it, but it’s not all that bad. Maybe I can de-scent it by leaving the cap off for a day.

Seriously, you take AMAZING pictures! You’ll have to tell me your secrets on Sunday – I will force them out of you!!! LOL!
I LOVE that colour!

You too, Jen! We’re like sisters in our bold lippie addiction.
It is absolutely PERFECT.

Right? That’s what I think, too, Tracy.
I love this color! I just bought a Maybelline lipstick called “fuchsia fever” but it seems dull compared to this color.

Thanks Larie!
I don’t think fuchsia suits me at all (I’m too warm toned I think!) but it looks amazing on you!
I have to try the bold-lip-with-clean-make up look soon!

I have a solution for you, 25FLONDON, coming up in my next post. Hopefully tomorrow if I’m not lazy.
Love that pink lip! It looks like the perfect pink!
It’s a great pink.
I saw it on Lisa Eldridge in one of her latest YouTube videos, and it is killer on her complexion as well.
Wow this lipstick is incredible. I am trying to find a really bright pink/fuschia, maybe this is the one?
This is an awesome pick! There are some great drugstore picks, too, if you don’t want to spend so much money.
This is stunning – you look gorgeous in the color! How perfect for summer!

Wow. Wowowowow. I think that I need that; I have delusions of looking as fantastic in it as you do. Question, though: Are you familiar with Provocative Pink from the Rouge Volupte line? Can you possibly compare them? I have PP, and I don’t want to buy two hot pinks that look exactly the same.
Hi Unabashed! Thanks.
I can’t say for sure as I don’t own Provocative Pink (nor do I have easy access to the YSL counter…) but after looking at swatches online, they look pretty darn close.
If I manage to swing by the YSL counter, I’ll let you know with my findings.
Oh also, Lisa Eldridge wore this in her Fresh Pink Lips video here: click!
Thanks! I definitely need this.
Wow. This colour looks stunning on you. I think I need a YSL lipstick when I grow up.
