Couture Highlighter

The Poudre Couture Highlighter by Yves Saint-Laurent, the ideal make-up to brighten your complexion

Until very recently, women were content with a foundation and a blush to make up their face. However, other make-up products have recently appeared on the market and have literally revolutionised the beauty world. Among the stars of this sector, the highlighter keeps making headlines. This illuminating powder is unrivalled when it comes to adding an extra touch of radiance to your face. Of course, under the guidance of Tom Pecheux, the new international director of Yves Saint-Laurent beauty products, the brand has also kept up with the times. Focus on the Poudre Couture Highlighter by Yves Saint-Laurent.

The three different shades of the Poudre Couture Highlighter

The Poudre Couture Highlighter is the first illuminating make-up from Yves Saint-Laurent. This powder bears no resemblance to a classic compact powder. It illuminates the face like never before, leaving a pearlescent and slightly metallic finish. The Poudre Couture Highlighter by Yves Saint-Laurent seems to capture surrounding light and deposit it onto your skin. Its innovative technology gives it a creamy, melting texture combined with extreme lightness. Infinitely fine, the Poudre Couture Highlighter provides an immediate second-skin effect. As a result, it avoids the risk of application mistakes and offers a make-up look with no risk of unsightly demarcation lines. Richly loaded with pearlescent pigments, the Poudre Couture Highlighter structures the face and illuminates the skin. It is the ideal product for achieving a «glowy» complexion in record time. This make-up product will give your face a fresher and more luminous look in a single application. Suitable for all skin tones, the Poudre Couture Highlighter is available in three different shades.

The two application methods for the Poudre Couture Highlighter by Yves Saint-Laurent

The Poudre Couture Highlighter by Yves Saint-Laurent can be applied in two different ways. To give your face an instant radiance boost, we recommend smiling and applying this powder to the most prominent part of your cheekbones. Blend it towards your temples using a fairly wide brush. The other method involves a more sculpting strobing technique. This new make-up method aims to attract light to the most prominent areas of your face. Thus, the Poudre Couture Highlighter can be applied to the bridge of your nose to slim it down. At the Cupid's bow, it maximises the natural volume of your lips. In this way, the Poudre Couture Highlighter by Yves Saint-Laurent acts as a true trompe-l'œil.
As for the choice of brush, please note that a small applicator is included with the Poudre Couture Highlighter to make things easier. In any case, we recommend using a very soft and fluffy brush, ideal for dispersing the powder's small shimmering particles without overloading your skin.
