Touche Éclat Reviews

As others have pointed out, they bought this because of the hype. It took me a year to give in, but while I like it, it cannot replace my Laura Mercier Secret (Camouflage) Concealer. First, the shades. I currently have a tan, and I'm not sure whether SA's just don't know how to match girls with deeper skin colors. They always try to match me to the exact same colour as my body which is 4.5 or 5, but I want lighter and brighter, so either a 3 or 3.5 which blended out is right what I need.

Second, the tip gets disgusting over time and splays and clumps together and hardens to the point where you can't get any product out (Check the testers at Myer or David Jones).

Finally, the price. It is not on the cheap side . Cheapest I found it was on Ozsale and Chemist Warehouse online for some $35 +. You get a small amount of product compared to other concealers. and this is not meant to cover up imperfections. Still, there is nothing like this and no dupe is good enough.

I have the Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat in shade 2 Luminous Ivory and it is a beautiful liquid highlighter which gives you natural looking radiance without shimmer.

This highlighter comes in a gold metal shade box which has the YSL logo in gold and terra cotta red.
All other text on the box is black with white spaces for the barcodes and a peach coloured dot on the top with the number 2 within it to indicate the shade of the product. Inside is the highlighting pen and a white piece of paper which has instructions for use printed in multiple languages.

The YSL Touche Eclat pen itself is the exact same shade of gold as the box and is close in size to a fat pen. The pen is cool to the touch which indicates that it is made of metal, with the YSL logo embossed on the lid. The small amount of text on the pen is in black and clicking mechanism on the end of the pen is black plastic with the number 2 printed in white. Overall the look and feel of the pen evokes a sense of luxury and indicates that this is a quality product.

When you pull off the lid you can see that the inside of the lid and the barrel of the pen changes to black plastic. The nib of the pen are white bristles just like a small concealer brush.

To get product to dispense to the bristles you need to click on the button at the end of the pen. The first time you do this you do need to click quite a few times, so many in fact that I was unsure if I got a faulty product and that nothing was going to come out but once the highlighter fluid is going you only need to click once or twice to get more than enough product to use. There is no scent which is great as no one can say that they don’t like it :)

The highlighter is liquid and you can use it in multiple places and purposes, ie on the bridge of your nose, on the top of your cheeks, to accentuate your lips etc. The main place that I now use it (I do use it for the other purposes too but not as much) is as an under eye concealer / highlighter on top of my regular concealer or on its own as that is one of the places which I need a little more help. To use I dot it around then use my finger to dot blend it in. You don’t need to use much and it blends in seamlessly, the product is light weight and the colour is perfect and reflects light without any shimmer or glitter! It helps me feel like I am in a better version of my own skin!

After use the cap click back on firmly with a very decisive click which I presume is a great seal as the product never dries up between uses.

This highlighter does not budge all day which is great, but the price tag is a little hefty for me to be comfortable to keep this in my makeup bag regularly but it often shows up at Chemist Warehouse for an ok price so when I want to get this again I am sure to go there for my next YSL Touche Eclat Radiance touch pen.

The YSL Touche Eclat Radiance Touch pen is also made in France which I did like to see as this brand is French brand.

ive gone through so many concealers and ive tried alot, but nothing will ever replace this product! it goes on so smooth, and blends amazingly. a little bit of product definitely goes a long way which is another bonus as to why i love it, my only problem is that the applicator is a little but unsanitary for my liking but other than that its absolutely perfect. the coverage is perfect because it doesnt feel heavy at all!

I held off on buying this for years and always thought this was a hyped up product. How wrong I was. After I learnt how to use it correctly- it works wonders. I use it primarily to brighten under my eyes after I've colour corrected and concealed my under eye area. I also use it across my cheeks for a subtle highlight. Love this product and the packaging is sleek and glam. one star missing because its quite expensive but overall a fab product.

I have been re-purchasing this concealer for years after first hearing about it through rave reviews online.
As a concealer, this product is so easy to apply and blend into the skin but I can't say I ever use it as a highlighter. It's perfect to keep in your bag and do touch ups throughout the day and although it's little on the expensive side, the tube usually lasts you quite a while as you don't need much product.

The USL Touche Éclat is such an amazing product! Personally I use this under my normal concealer as I found it best for colour correcting and brighting, as I have very dark circles I did not find it amazing alone. As soon as I used it on a customer with minimal under eye discolouration it was like magic. Very smooth and light reflecting. This product is the perfect match to a dewy makeup look as you don't have to set it

I finally was able to try the YSL Touche Eclat after hearing so much about it. This is probably the best concealer I have found until now as I have searched high and low for something that would cover my dark circles, brighten the under eye area and would be creamy/blendable .

For a concealer it is definitely expensive considering that it comes in a small click tube so it's not a lot of product but it does do an amazing job! It is a click pen with a flat brush tip. I clicked it twice, waiting for the product to come out and dabbed three dots underneath each eye and decided to blend it with my makeup sponge rather than the concealer brush itself.

The colour I got was amazing! It was just a bit lighter than my skin but had a yellow base to match the yellow undertones in my skin. It blended so easily, I found that it was creamy and hydrating enough for my eyes and it brightened my eyes so my whole face looked much more awake.

The true test was to see how it would look after an hour. It didn't settle into any fine lines and it still managed to look good. Unfortunately it's not a concealer I can afford to wear everyday so I like to save it for special occasions.

I think it's a great product, with long last coverage, smooth application and great colour match. The cap makes it great to keep wet and apply nicely, and keeps the product fresher for longer as well. YSl always make terrific products, so you're never really disappointed as well. My only hesitation is that it runs out quicker than other concealer products - or maybe i use too much? But definitely recommend.

There are certain high end products which we save for a special occasion for just a special feeling this product is definitely one of it , works really well on skin but has very limited shades and I felt the clicking technology a little bit difficult I accidentally clicked many times and got too much product into my brush, but one the product it is applied and nearly blended into skin it gives tat perfect concealing and highlighted look , Save it for special occasion girls
