Yves Saint Laurent Souffle D’Eclat Finishing Veil

From the very first application, the skin’s beauty shines through a radiant veil that provides a refreshing feeling all day long. Micro particles enhance the skin’s natural radiance, while the airy powder gently sets and improves makeup, delivering a flawlessly perfect finish. Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive and dry skin.

I had high expectations for this YSL powder since I am a fan of the YSL Touche Eclat highlighting pen and liquid foundation. I was excited about adding this powder to my YSL collection.

I previously wrote about the YSL Touche Eclat liquid foundation, which requires a setting powder, so I was pleased when YSL released Souffle d’eclat.

Choosing the shade online was a bit challenging as the samples appeared dark, but I went with the lightest yellow-toned shade 2 and a pink-toned shade 1. I was happy with my choice as the actual color was lighter than I expected. It complements shades like Dior 011/021, Beige 10/20, MAC NC15/20, NARS Deuvile.

The packaging is luxurious in an attractive gold design, staying true to YSL’s signature style. Although I’m not a fan of gold, YSL executed it beautifully in this product.

I typically dislike loose powder products and their packaging due to the messiness and inconvenience. With this YSL powder, although the puff is cute and soft, I prefer using a brush for a more even application by swirling it in the cap.

The description of this powder by YSL reminded me of Guerlain Meteorites Perles, promising a luminous glow akin to a “photoshopped” look. While the swatch has some shimmer when heavily applied, it doesn’t translate the same when used with a brush. It provides a similar effect as a basic setting powder, leaving a matte finish and not the desired glow. It also accentuated dryness and caused itching on some parts of my face, requiring me to use a soothing spray like MAC Fix+.

Despite my disappointment with this powder, I felt compelled to try it due to my brand loyalty. At $66, I had higher expectations for the product.
