How to Fake a Good Nights Sleep with YSL's Touche Éclat.

Does anyone get a good nights sleep anymore? I swear, it is the way we are programmed in today's society. Go, go go, with our minds constantly spinning. Even as we sleep. We can fake our attitude easy enough (thank you, coffee) and our hair and clothes certainly cannot look tired. It's the face. It can tell all signs of sleep deprivation. I recently discovered a handy trick and a fantastic product that has me looking bright eyed, even though I am totally faking my good nights sleep. Thank you YSL and Touche Éclat.

How to Fake a Good Nights Sleep with YSL's Touche Éclat, the Best-selling Highlighter

Touch Éclat is a magic wand that illuminates light and radiance, just where we need it. This is not a concealer. It is a highlighting pen for the face. It can banish all signs of fatigue and light up the eyes and areas of the face with just a few simple swipes of the brush that is built right into the end of the wand.

The long-lasting highlighter itself is silky smooth and blends out with ease. I use it on the very inside corner areas between my eyes and nose, blending it up onto my brow-bone. I also blend it down, under and away from my eyes, to almost the top of my cheekbones. I apply Touche Éclat after my concealer and foundation, before any eye primer or other products. It makes me look awake and overall more radiant and younger. Like I had that good nights sleep. And the radiance lasts all day.

I use Touche Éclat in No. 1 Luminous Radiance most often, but also have No. 3, the Light Peach shade in my arsenal for when I am sporting more of a faux glow.

To see Touche Éclat in action and just where and how to apply, check out this quick video clip from YSL.

Touche Éclat is an award winner, justifiably so and is a must-have in my book. Pick it up at YSL Beauty or at Sephora. It is worth the $40.00 price tag, and then some.

Bobbi Brown's NEW Natural Finish Long Lasting Foundation.

I used to think that I was on the hunt for the holy grail of foundations. As I get older, though, I realize that I need different foundations for different days. As my skin seems to be constantly changing and I need more coverage and wear on some special days, I am learning to look for a variety of foundations to meet those needs. I cannot wait to try this new one from Bobbi Brown as it seems like it will cover a few needs - the need for a natural looking finish while providing lasting wear.

The formula seems to be well balanced as it is infused with sponge-like powders to absorb excess oil on the surface of the skin, while emollients lock in moisture to ensure skin stays perfectly balanced. The transfer-resistant formula helps create a barrier against heat and humidity for 8 hours of wear, and who doesn't need that? A built in SPF of 15 is a definite plus too.

Natural Finish Long Lasting Foundation is available now at Bobbi Brown counters and online. It comes in 20 yellow based shades from Alabaster for super pale skin to Espresso for dark brown tones. I suggest going to a counter for initial purchase to get your perfect shade.
