You've probably seen so much coverage of this product in the recent months, but here are my two cents to add to the pile anyway! The cult favourite Touche Éclat highlighting pen celebrated its 20th birthday this year and the fashion house finally got their act together and created a foundation to go with it. With 22 shades in three families (B for natural beige, BD for golden beige and BR for rosy beiges) most people shouldn't have a problem trying it out!
I've seen a few bloggers say that they wanted to like this foundation and really did like it at first but it's broke them out and so on. Personally I've had absolutely no problems with it and I've been using it for a couple of months now. I do normally wear a translucent powder over the top of my foundation to avoid transferring and so my powder blush/bronzer applies better, but here I'm just wearing a cream blush over the top so you can see the natural finish. It is very dewy without feeling heavy or cakey on the skin which I love. Plus my powder doesn't take all of that away which is great. Another thing I adore about this foundation is the packaging - so sleek and luxe, so perfect!
Do you like the look of this foundation or have you tried it already? Are you a fan of YSL as a beauty brand?
I desperately want to try this but worried as I have a slightly oily t zone. What type of skin do you have?xx
ReplyDeleteDry combination - doesn't look oily but prone to blackheads etc. on my nose and chin
DeleteYou look amazing with that foundation! It gives you such a healthy dewy glow! But is it as good as the touché éclat is the real question??? Xxx
ReplyDeleteI actually like it better considering what I really need under my eyes is coverage, so the pen is a finishing step :)
DeleteThis looks great on your skin! I have dry skin so it might also be a good match for me, it seems to give a lovely glow to your skin!
ReplyDeleteIt looks lovely and I just love the packaging:0

Your skin looks amazing! The packaging and everything seems so luxurious, I just wish I could bring myself to spend that much money on a foundation haha x
ReplyDeleteAh this looks lovely-I found the shade I'd need the other day and am currently considering going back and getting it, you've made me even more tempted! xo
ReplyDeleteI really love this foundation, but I do think it is overpriced. There is cheaper foundations that work better. Your skin looks amazing though!

What powder do you use over this foundation? x
ReplyDeleteYeah, i think i commented on your instagram about coming out in mega spots. But it looks good on you so i dont dispute its a good foudation, it just didnt agree with me. I use Clarins now and love it!

I've only used this a couple of times, and bar the SA giving me a shade darker than I need, LOVE the consistency! Slightly worried about the break out factor, but think I'm gunna take the plunge anyway!

I really like the look of it, I am seriously considering it for a payday splurge - the YSL packaging gets me EVERY time! xxx

I had a chance to try out a sample of this, and I must say that I love it. Will pick it up as soon as I will use up most of my foundations. I own too many. xo
ReplyDeleteI really don't get the hype of this! Looks alright when it goes on but doesn't stay put.
ReplyDelete:(
beautiful packaging! is there a shade that would suit really pale skin? xxx
ReplyDeleteI am the lightest in most places and I tried the BD40 as I have really red pigmented skin so didn't want a pink base and it really covers and matches well x
DeleteLooks so lovely and flawless.. I MUST TRY! x
ReplyDeleteI've just finished my tester pot and am ready to purchase! sooo lovely.. I am extremely pale, lightest of most brands and I find the BD40 a perfect match! x
ReplyDeleteI've been wanting to try this foundation so badly. I love the highlighter and YSL products in general, so I'm very eager to try this one. It looks really lovely on you, which just makes me want it more! x

It looks lovely on your skin, naturally dewy. I wish it looked like that on me! I tried it but it makes my skin look so greasey, I have dry combination skin. I like to keep powder to a minimum that's why mac studio fix fluid is still my Fav! X
ReplyDeleteAlso which shade are you using? X
ReplyDeleteB40! The lighting just makes me look darker :)
DeleteThis foundation looks soo good on you! So tempted to try it but I have so many foundations already :/
ReplyDeleteI've been reading your blog for a while and have just started one of my own, if anyone could check it out I'd really appreciate it :) thankyou XO

Awwww this makes me really want to try it, so tempted! xx
ReplyDeleteI love this foundation! I did think that it was breaking me out, but I have been wearing it again the last 2 weeks with no problem at all.. so it was probably something else!
ReplyDeleteLove this foundation though, its so pretty on!
Love India www.thejewelbeauty.blogspot.co.uk

When I'm paid and when I run out of my Chanel Vita Lumiere, I plan to buy this.
ReplyDeleteHowever is it possible it is TOO DEWY? I feel this way when I use a lot of my vita lumiere and it looks so shiny on skin of other bloggers that have reviewed so I'm worried
and also,
Does it blend easily? I find the Vita Lumiere sticks to oily sections of my face rather than spreading evenly
Thankyou!

I don't have oily skin so I can't help you there I'm afraid :( it possibly would be too dewy as I have drier skin so it's glowy on me already. You can get little sample pots to see for yourself though :)
DeleteAbsolutely love the packaging! So elegant!! Also, I would like to try this foundation out, but I guess it's too expensive for my budget!! :( xx, Iria.
ReplyDeleteLove the packaging of this. I am really tempted to buy this product, it makes your skin look so lovely. I'll check it out next time i'm shopping. x
ReplyDeletethe packaging is just beautiful ! x
