YSL Touche Eclat Le Teint foundation Review
The wait is finally over for the new Touche Eclat Le Teint foundation and I have got to say this foundation is going to be YSL's best foundation yet. I personally believe it's going to take the crown off Estee Lauder with the UK's #1 foundation. To round it all up into one, this foundation has deeper radiance, enhanced coverage, better adhesion to the skin and longer staying power. What more could you want?!
To everyone thinking this is just a relaunched of the old Le Teint Touche Eclat foundation in a new bottle, you couldn't be more wrong. It's a complete upgrade with so much more added features.
The new Touch Eclat features:
- New catchlight technology to enhance radiance
- Translucent hybrid semi-spheres have been added to gold pigments to capture light and diffuse a continuous radiance without shine.
- New Touche Eclat anti-fatigue complex.
- Banishes shadows and dispels dullness.
- Vitamin E added to provide anti-oxidant protection,
- Ruscus extract combats signs of fatigue. soothes skin and boosts micro-circulation.
- 22 shades from beige, warm beige and cool beige.
I used to love the original formula of this foundation and when I found out they were discontinuing it I was worried that it wasn't going to be as good but I can reasure you that it's actually completely better, it's everything you could ask for in a foundation. The complaint most people had with the old foundation was the coverage that it gave and that it didn't last long enough on your skin. YSL have completely taken that on board and made the foundation a medium to full coverage foundation with up to 8 hour long wear. Which is absolutely perfect for me. It has also kept that light weight feel on your skin which was the best selling point of the old foundation. Now i feel i don't have to wear any concealer as it completely covers all the redness on my face and I no longer need to touch up throughout the day at work as it still looks flawless at the end of my shift - how can anyone not want that?!
Difference to the old formula:
- Increased coverage for a more flawless look.
- Formulated to last longer - 8 hours sleep in a drop.
- Shade additions to find the perfect match for your skin tone.
So to put it simple; For the lovers of Yves Saint Laurent foundation, go to your nearest counter to get yourself a colour match and a free 7 day trial and i'm sure you will fall in love with it as much as I have.
Now onto the partner of this foundation the Touche Eclat foundation brush.
Say good bye to all your old 'paint brush' or 'buffing' foundation brushes and say hello to the best, easiest and cleanest way to put on your foundation. This brush has changed the way I put on foundation forever. It's so quick, so easy and best of all no mess of the back of your hand.
The 'Y' reservior helps you control how much foundation you are going to use and the amount of coverage you want to apply that day.
Full coverage: For a full coverage you need to add 2 pumps into the Y then use circular motions onto your cheek to really buff and blend the foundation in, same again 2 pumps on your other cheek, then any foundation left on the brush is enough to go over your chin, nose and fore head. How easy?
Medium coverage: Pretty much the same technique as full coverage except you only use one pump with the help of the brush it will cover all of your face with a nice even medium coverage.
This brush gives you the best control of how much foundation you actually need to use, your foundation will actually last longer as you won't be wasting so much on the back of your hand every morning. It also really helps the finish off your foundation making it look flawless with no brush strokes.
Thankyou, Tay XXX
