YSL Beauty launches its new Matt Touch Compact Foundation

Follow me on Twitter

YSL Beauty is not for the faint at heart because the price tag is reflective of the status of this prestigious French cosmetic line.

If you’ve been reading my site for a while then you know that Yves Saint Laurent Beauty is the first line of make-up I bought as a teenager with my allowance money. The colours were perfect then and they still are now.

Now, when it comes to foundations … alas, YSL’s shades don’t suit all shades of skin. I’ve found their dark shades to be a tab bit too ashy or too light or too something.

I cannot emphasize enough how important it is to find the right shade of foundation as you age ladies. Nothing (I mean NOTHING) will age you faster than the wrong shade or foundation or wearing too much foundation.

After years of trying dozens of foundations, there is only one brand that does it for me … and that’s Virtual Make-up by Prescriptives.

That said, since the world is made of so many beautiful skin complexions, so those who can find their shades under the YSL label will be happy to know that now they can take their foundation on the road with them in a stylist and elegant way. The new YSL compact comes in the trademark golden box that is soooooooooooooo beautiful. It also comes with the sponge applicator that is conveniently stored in a hidden compartment.

The new Matt Touch Compact Foundation by YSL Beauty is ultra soft and has a comfortable texture that gives your complexion a flawless and long-lasting finish that will remain matte throughout the day and will keep oiliness and shine to a minimum. And your skin stays protected from the sun by the SPF20.

The new Matt Touch Compact Foundation by YSL Beauty comes in 10 shades (ivory, blond, opal, sand, peach, gold beige, pink beige, amber, honey and cinnamon) … so you might be lucky enough to find your own perfect shade!

The entire YSL cosmetic line has never been recession-friendly and it’s not going to start now. Yves Saint Laurent is a luxury brand and you will have to fork out $72 CAD/$57 US for this foundation!

You’ll find YSL beauty at major department stores in the U.S. and Canada. You can also buy it directly from their Web sites: Yves Saint Laurent YSL Beauty
