YSL Touche Eclat Neutralizer

A friend of mine introduced my to YSL's Touche Eclat complexion highlighter years ago, and I was instantly a fan.  The product is a splurge at $42.00 a pop, but works extremely well.  YSL recently released a line of color neutralizers in violet, green, and bisque ($38.00/each).

I received a neutralizer in green, courtesy of Influenster, to try out.  The creamy, unscented formula is not sticky and will stay put all day.  It is also matte, so no extra oiliness, and it is very lightweight.  A little goes a long way, and my under eye circles and redness nearly disappeared.  You can see how well the product mutes out my skin tone, so imagine that on problem areas.     

Sorry for the fingerprints!
I kept cleaning the package, and still...

The tube out of the package.

Click the button at the bottom
to dispense the product.  Be careful!
It'll come out fast.

That small amount (see photo
above) on the side of my hand.

How much that amount covered, without
really blending.

 





To dispense the product, click the bottom button of the pen until the desired amount of product comes through the brush.  The pen makes a loud clicking sound, so don't be alarmed.  You can apply it with the brush, but it might leave brush marks.  I recommend that the product be blended.  To do so, I use either my fingertips or a damp BeautyBlender or micro BeautyBlender.  This product helped to provide the perfect foundation for the rest of my makeup.  Clients tend to love it as well, but it is a pricey item to have in your kit.  Other brands with similar products include, but are not limited to, the following:  Smashbox,  Cover Fx, and NYX.  Since I haven't tested them out, I can't say whether or not they work just as well, but they are a few options if you can't get a hold of YSL.

Stay beautiful!
