WRAP-UP! My favorites/must-haves from this collection are as follows -
1. Ebloui and Mirifique Illusion D'Ombre Shadows
[Quick review of the other colors: Epatant is unique enough because it is a greenish-silver that pairs will with cool greens. Fantasme/white was took sheer and glittery for my taste, Illusoire/purple had too grey a base and was not purple enough for my personal preference, and Emerveille/peach was a lovely peach as a swatch but not peach at all on my eyelids.. just a glittery nude, not really worth 40 bucks IMO!]
2. Prelude Eyeshadow Quad
3. All three Nail Polishes.. yes, all three!

Hey Rae, I have a question on YSL Touche Eclat. Have you always used the shade 8 or is it just a summer shade while you are tan? I am out of my no.2 but I always felt that it didn't go well with my yellow/pink undertone. It looks kinda pasty on me and wanted to know if no.8 would be better for my shade. I am a 4.75 on Armani Luminous Silk.
ReplyDeleteAnon - I use 1, 2, and 8. 8 was made especially for those of Asian heritage with yellow undertones. I think it's pretty flattering on all skin tones, though, so you may want to see for yourself!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Rae! 8 sounds like it should be a perfect fit!
