Happy
Friday afternoon everyone! I am sure we are all counting down the last few
hours until our second May bank holiday commences! Whether your going out on a
night on the town or have a beautiful day out planned I want to share with you
one of my Holy Grail beauty secrets.
I
am sure that those of you who are reading who have an ounce of beauty interest
will have already heard of the Yves Saint Laurent Touché Éclat but I just want to reiterate its excellence.
It
is quite literally one of my favorite make-up products and is one of my all
time ‘go-to’ beauty belonging. It is defined as both a concealer and a
highlighter, but really, it is so much more than that! It adds just pure
radiance and brilliance to my face.
I
am somewhat of an insomniac and I come to life at night time, meaning that I
quite often loose out on my precious beauty sleep and rise with heavy bags and
dark circles. But fear not, with Touché Éclat that’s not something that I have to worry about. When applying
my make up in the morning I like to apply it in a triangle under my eye and dot
it across my brow bone underneath my eyebrows. The colouring within the product
is perfect for covering dark circles and bags and allows me to fake that good
and restful nights sleep!
But
that’s not all! For those who know me, know that I am obsessed with cheekbones
and love contouring and highlighting to accentuate that perfect cheekbone for
pictures and nights out. This product is perfect for that, I like to add it
just above my cheekbone and blend it with some bronzer to give that foolproof
definition to my face. Furthermore, adding it to my cupids bow at the top of my
lips (the indent above your lips), gives my lips a much plumper and fuller
effect. This is one of my favourite looks with a bold red lip for a night out
and gives that perfect Kylie Jenner look without the ‘cup challenge’. Finally,
the Touché Éclat acts as an amazing
primer for eye shadow, applying to my eyelids easily evens out my skin tone and
allows eye shadow to stay on all day and night and every girl wants this!
If
you cant already tell from the above, I really do love this product and it is
just so handy. The packaging is great and its slim line, meaning it easily fits
into my make bag so I can take it on the go with me when I need a bit of
brightening during the day. I love the applicator and it means you don’t need
to use any other brushes and it perfectly glides on to your face with ease and
you can use your fingertips to dab it in to smaller creases.
It
really is impossible not to love this product. As a high end designer brand it
retails at around £25.00, which is a little pricey, but it really is one
product that can do it all. I would
absolutely recommend it to anyone. Have any of you tried it or can recommend
something similar? What are your Holy Grail products?
Thanks
for reading.
Much
love
P.S I found this amazing photo on google which shows where to apply the Touché Éclat, hope it helps!
