It may come at a high price tag, but YSL Le Teint Touche Eclat is worth it, according to many reviewers. This liquid foundation offers light to full coverage for many skin types -- especially helpful for those whose skin type changes as the season changes. Only a few drops even out skin tone and leave a semi-matte finish that looks luminous and bright. Reviewers love this, but those with oily skin find that the foundation feels slick.
Seventeen great shades with coverage that's just right. Reviewers praise YSL Le Teint Touche Eclat's 17 color options that really match. Even those who say they have unusual undertones can match their color. Paula Begoun, beauty expert, says a few colors look unnatural, but reviewers don't agree. The luminous formula brightens skin and offers light to full coverage with just a few drops. Despite the SPF 19 label, Begoun says this foundation doesn't provide broad-spectrum protection and should be paired with a sunscreen.
Luminous finish for all skin types. Not many products that offer a luminous look are recommended for those with oily skin, yet we found YSL Le Teint Touche Eclat recommended for dry to oily skin. Reviewers say its finish is semi-matte, yet it adds glow. Despite its light to full coverage, Begoun says it "has a luxuriously smooth, lightweight texture." Reviewers agree, saying the foundation looks and feels natural.
Still, there are a handful of reviewers who find the foundation is greasy or melts off their oily skin. A few find it causes them to break out. Users don't agree on YSL's long-lasting effects: Sephora.com reviewers call it long-wearing, but users at MakeupAlley.com say it wears off after about six hours, even with primer and setting powder.

Beauty expert Paula Begoun gives YSL Le Teint Touche Eclat an average rating. She says she cannot give it a score higher than average because it doesn't offer broad-spectrum sun protection. However, it "has a luxuriously smooth, lightweight texture that blends well and sets to a finish that feels matte but looks luminous." This foundation paired with a product that offers broad spectrum protection is a good option for those with normal to oily skin. She does note the high price tag and says that better options are available at a lower price.
