With a little help from my friend

January 11th, 2008

toucheeclat.gifIn the last few weeks I have become a huge fan of a makeup product… and this is quite unusual for me! My new best friend is the Touche Eclat by Yves Saint Laurent.
It is a face illuminator that is applied over make-up or bare skin. It comes in a chic gold and black pen with a soft felt tip at the end to apply the creamy highlighter. It is easy to use and does a great job eliminating the signs of fatigue that are ever present under my eyes since the arrival of offspring number 2.
I apply it after foundation et voila…it really seems to wake me up!

Apparently it is the world’s most popular concealer…. no wonder!
