The Epitome of glamour, Yves Saint Laurent make up is a brand i first started using over 30 years ago. I rememeber first seeing it in Debenhams and lusting after the Luxe gold packaging and the Iconic Touche Eclat brightening pen. Years later and Yves Saint Laurent Beauty is still as lusted after and Iconic as ever. Below are my favourite 5 Iconic YSL Beauty loves you need to try.
This is without any shadow of a doubt the most boujiest primer i have ever used!! This is absolutely stunning!! First off can we just talk about the packaging. It comes in a beautiful glass bottle with some weight about it that really makes this feel super luxurious.
Inside this clear, gel like primer are gold illuminating flecks which make this the perfect primer to add illumination to the face. Inspired by their Super iconic Touche Eclat Illuminator this primer hydrates the skin without feeling greasy, blurs the pores and imperfections and creates the perfect long-wearing base for make up.
Transparent to allow optimal light diffusion and free from dulling opaque filters, the shimmer-flecked gel uses advanced blurring technology to create an instantly radiant and flawless canvas.
My skin feels lovely and soft when this is on and my make up applies flawlessy. Great to wear on its own as skin brighten or under make up. If you love a primer with a silicone feel, you will adore this. Available HERE
Touche Eclat Long Wear Glow Breathable Medium Coverage All Day Hydration SPF 22 Foundation
This is the smoothest foundation i own. It literally glides on like a moisturiser leaving the most flawless coverage. Containing SPF 22, the coverage lasts all day without wearing off and when powdered across the t zone and more oily areas does not look cakey.
This foundation is so hydrating on the skin, feeling more like skincare than make up, and leaves a dewy look that oozes health and vitality. It is breathable, it is buildable and it looks absolutely beautiful on. Available in 30+ shades i wear BR40 and it is just perfect. The new packaging in the glass bottle is super sophisticated and luxurious. Available HERE
Touche Eclat Radiant Touch Illuminator
Quite possibly one of THE most iconic make up products ever, i have been a fan of this product for over 30 years. Sometimes misunderstood, the Touche Eclat Radiant Touch Illuminator is the original “Highlighter”. Perfect for brightening the under eye area and highlighting high points of the face without adding shimmer. Not to be mistaken for a concelaer, this click pen system has a sheer to medium coverage, contains flecks of light to instantly illuminate the darker areas or shadows on the face. Formulated with Calendula Extract & Vitamin E, this is a cooling, hydrating formulation. I absolutely love this. Available HERE
Mascara Volume Effet Faux Cils Radical
If you love the look of a luxry, designer mascara you will love this. Again YSL get a gold star for packaging goals but also the formulation. Long, lasting, deep black mascara that gives thicker, fuller lashes.
This new formula is enriched with B5 Pro-Vitamin, Walnut Leaf Extract from the YSL’s Ourika Gardens in Morocco, and Argan oil. It glides effortlessy across the lashes coating each one thanks to the flexible wand and brush fibres. Lashes feel silky and give a gorgeous sexy look to the eyes. Available HERE
Rouge Pur Couture The Slim Leather Matte Lipstick
How could i not include Yves Saint Laurents bestselling, Iconic Rouge Pur Couture The Slim Leather Matte Lipstick!! YSL’S first ever Leather Matte Lipstick with the square edged precision bullet allows for perfect application. I have the shade 21 Rouge Paradoxe which is the most perfect shade of deep red.
This is a super sophisticated, comfortable matte lipstick that really lasts all day. It is a beautiful red lip, that adds that final polished look to the little black dress and smokey eye look. However, as this is a true Hollywood Matte formula, i find it easier to apply with a lip brush than direct from the bullet due to the formula. Available HERE
If you love your products to have that Luxurious edge, look fantastic on your dressing table and wear beautifully on the skin, you will really enjoy these Iconic YSL Beauty loves.
