It isn’t very often that a brand like Yves Saint Laurent make face products pale enough for my extremely pale skin so I just had to try their Touche Eclat foundation to see if it lives up to its iconic Touche Eclat counterpart.
Available in a rather impressive 22 shades I was matched with BR10- Beige rose, this is the palest available shade with a rather pink undertone.
On first inspection it appeared that this shade may be a little on the pink side for me but the formula is so sheer that it blended in and looked a better match (I would like to try the b10 which I believe to have a neutral undertone-especially in the summer when I have a few more freckles).
So how did it wear?
I applied this foundation with my fingers; I love the lightweight, moisturising feel of the foundation. This is defiantly not one for people that like a fuller coverage, it feels and looks more like a skin care product rather than a foundation. On my trouble areas I was able to apply an extra layer of the product with no issue but even then I had to apply concealer to red areas and under my eyes to cover those pesky circles.
On first inspection I couldn’t really see the glow I was expecting from this product and I was in fact a little disappointed with the colour match and the finish but within an hour the result was a lot more pleasing I felt like the foundation had sunk into my skin a little more and I was certainly more glowing. As the foundation wore I did have to powder my nose and chin after around 5hrs as I was getting a little too much of a ‘glow’ (on my second day of wearing the foundation I didn’t wear a moisturiser underneath and I felt it fared slightly better). Another plus for me was although the foundation did wear off it didn’t really oxidise or settle into my fine lines around my eyes.
Conclusion
I can’t say I was entirely convinced by the Beige Rose colour on my skin and would love to try this foundation in the neutral undertone. I would defiantly recommend this foundation for people with drier/normal skin as I feel for oiler types this is just too moisturising. The coverage is sheer to light which I love on a good skin day not so much on a bad! It did not cause my spot prone skin to break out which is always a plus, in fact it left my skin feeling quite cared for. With an SPF 19 this is a foundation I would love to try in the summer so that I can let my natural skin shine through- as long as I’m not too hot and shiny I feel like this would work a treat!
Hi, every time i used to check weblog posts here in the early hours in the daylight, because i enjoy to gain knowledge of more and more.
you are really a good webmaster. The web site loading speed is
incredible. It kind of feels that you are doing any
distinctive trick. Also, The contents are masterpiece.
you’ve performed a wonderful task in this matter!
I was wondering if you ever considered changing the page layout of your
blog? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
But maybe you could a little more in the way of content
so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one
or 2 pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?

It’s actually very complex in this active life to listen news on Television, thus I simply
use the web for that purpose, and get the most recent news.
This post will help the internet people for creating new blog or even a weblog from start to end.
It’s amazing in support of me to have a web page, which is good in favor of my know-how.
