Yves Saint-Laurent Fall Look
You’ve read it everywhere, specially here if you’ve been following it, this Fall is all about sensuality, mystery and allure.
Yves Saint-Laurent also adopted the smoky eye look, however instead of going for the neutral lip, they painted in deep red for an even more sensual look.
The sun-kissed complexion with an oriental twist is completely gone and the skin reverted to a more pale complexion to fully contrast with the dark eyes and dark lips being fully sculpted with blushing almost evoking a chiseled masculine face shape that contradicts itself with full dark red lipstick and mascara filled lashes.
Limited-edition wise we have a new multi-purpose palette with a Haute Couture gorgeous design with shadows flattering for complexion and eyes as well. I like and cringe at these multi-purpose palettes to be perfectly honest. I always have the feeling that very soon the dark pigment will mix itself with the neutral tones used for blush and complexion resulting in utter mess. Sure, one can be careful not to mix them, but having no dividing properties whatsoever, as the brushes sweep the pressed powders, the grains will migrate from one section to another. Besides, if you need surgical precision to keep the palette intact then it’s a minus if you think that these are designed for convenience and portability. If I were to get this, I’d probably leave it as a collector’s item and it would be a shame to leave such an expensive item go to waste.
In my opinion, this collection doesn’t offer anything radically new and unless you’re a die-hard limited edition palette junkie, you can achieve this look with tons of stuff that you probably already have.
