YSL
Touche Eclat
YSL’s Touche Eclat was launched in
1991 and was the world’s first light reflecting makeup
product. It’s ability to deflect light and attention
from problem areas gained it an instant and loyal following.
YSL’s Touche Eclat is still one of
the World’s Best-selling Beauty Products and most beauty
editors, fashion photographers and professional makeup artists
also agree, try and find one of their makeup boxes without
one! This
is why it had to enter our Beauty All Stars List.
Originally launched in just one tone
it is now available in 3 shades.
Shade 1 for traditional pale skins, as it has a pink
undertone, Shade 2 for medium skin tones, with a peach
undertone, and Shade 3 for darker skin tones with a
yellow undertone, so now everyone can enjoy the miracles
of YSL Touche Eclat! |

Touche Eclat works by reflecting light back
the eye and camera. This makes dark areas look lighter, creases
look shallower and puffy areas look less dense. In this manner
Touche Eclat can even out the dullest of
complexions, the most hungover of skin and the most tired
looking face; turning back the clock and giving you the confidence
to flawlessly face the world with a single click of a button.
It can also be used to give structure and definition to a
face if applied to the top of the cheekbones and eyebrow bone,
and the illusion of larger lips when around the area and larger
eyes when placed in the inner and outer corners. Furthermore,
radiance pens, like YSL Touche Eclat, or
any of the copies, make excellent 'erasers' for all sorts
of mishaps, especially those around the eye area. Simply apply
it around a badly done area and no one else will know it is
there.

However, many people do not use Touche Eclat correctly as
a Radiance Pen but use it as a concealer. YSL Touche
Eclat is NOT A CONCEALER and the best look cannot
be gained from using it in this manner. For example, Touche
Eclat has no coverage properties and the dense pigment needed
to offer a camouflaging effect to spots, dark circles and
other problems. If you try to apply it to dark circles and
areas that require concealing it will only accentuate them
by literally highlighting them. It is instead best utilised
over a concealer to stop the matte effect of the concealer
and give a flawlessly natural effect to the complexion.
Quick Tips For Using YSL Touche Eclat.
1. Apply Touche Eclat underneath dark areas that you wish
to minimise and not onto them.
2. Use in the inner and outer corners of the eye to widen
the eye and brighten the eye.
3. Use around the lips for the illusion of a larger pout
4. Use just underneath the creases and dark areas that form
under the chin, lines from the nose to the lips etc.
5. Use on the browbone and on the top of the cheekbones to
add structure to the face
6. Use on top of a concealer for a more natural finish and
one that removes the ‘caked’ look that some concealers
give.
7. Use over makeup mistakes as a quick fix
8. Never use YSL’s Touche Eclat directly on top of areas
that you wish to hide.
