YSL Touche Eclat foundation

[susiefen]

I think this came out last week - just wondered if anyone had tried it yet?

I'd like to know too :)

Me too.

Yes I have it. It is pretty good, cannot say amazing. It is a really great colour match for my skin though which I appreciate as I have a cupboard full of unsuitable foundations.

In my ever continuing quest to find the holiest of grails of foundation I have bagged a sample of this in Debenhams. They match your skin, you get s very generous sample and in the box I got a serum sample too.

The colour match for my skin is fantastic and I really like it. It is soft and dewy without being oily and it blends very very well. The trouble is, I tried By Terry sheer the other day in Space NK, the sales assistant did my face. It was AMAZING and I couldn't stop looking at my face. It is £44 and the ysl is £28. I can't buy either as I have too much foundation to use up. I may well be steered by the price of ysl and lust after the By Terry.

I couldn't stop looking at my face sounds ridiculous! But it was true - I looked very glowy and I was in and out of shops and there were mirrors off

Whereismywine What was the name of the By Terry foundation? It sounds fab!

whereismywine Just had to say hello

The By Terry really is good. I use it and it blends and lasts so well. There is a really difference to my radiance when I don't wear it.

I found my colour match a bit funny, to be honest! It was slightly orangey. The texture & coverage looked really good, so i am a little disappointed. I shall re-try tomorrow and see.

drywhitewine don't mind if I do!

katespade mine looks an odd colour in the tube almost with a grey hue (sounds bad I'm probably wrong) but it is spot on for my skin. It was from the middle row which I wouldn't have gone for if choosing myself but it really works, not orangey (B40 I am fair but yellowish)

silver it is the sheer cover By Terry one. If you get to a Space NK, try it, it is beautiful. I have possibly tried all foundations in the entire world and it has surpassed them. But £44. Ouch.

Thanks whereismywine - do Space NK let you have a sample before you buy? I think at that price I would need to test at home first rather than a rushed test in the shop. I think an expensive foundation can be worth it in the long run in terms of lasting a long time/looking fab

I Tried it again today, and the colour is absolutely perfect. Looked really good. I am very pleased with it, i guess it was just the shop lighting.

The by terry, do they do that in Manchester anywhere or is it just a Space NK thing?

I was too wussy to ask for a sample, I got poshed out! katespade there is a space nk in Manchester, near St Annes square? That's where I had it done.

OOh, is st Annes square near Deansgate? I shall have to ask someone tomorrow how to get their, I'm going to the red hot world buffet!
