A simple must. It tricks everyone into thinking you are fully rested when you have been up all night, my absolute favourite makeup without any doubt. I have colour 2 and apply it under my eyes every morning and it'll last all day. I like that its light enough as to appear as natural as possible, doesn't even look like I have any makeup on! Thus achieving the elusive, makeup- no makeup look. Win.

Tips: -Wash the tip brush once a week to get rid of any old build-up. -When applying, apply down from the eyes so as to not draw out any bags that may be there
lOVE iT,this highlighter is fantastic ,it's a gold pen that you push the button down a few times and the end and product comes out the other end,it has a small brush applicator to place under your eyes,forehead,cuspids bow or anywhere else you would like to highlight.i placed it in 3 lines under each eye and blended it in with a beauty blender,it left a highlight blow that looked fantastic.and it did not set into my fine lines,I use this product at least twice weekly,it's such good quLity with the product and packaging
Tips: Blend under eyes with a beauty blender
The touche eclat is worth its money. I really tried other concealers but they are not as smooth as this magic pen. The best part is I can use an additional brush but I don't have to.
I got this a while ago and I have to say I'm not a religious user.
It's not very effective on bad dark circles but for days when you've had enough sleep it really does brighten the eye area really well. Thin consistency that's easy to apply, with a light to medium coverage.
It does highlight cheekbones beautifully though!
Overall, not sure the payoff is worth the price point, but I'm sure if I had better skin to begin with and less to conceal, I would love it a lot more haha.
Tips: Set, set, set. If you don't set, this will crease under the eyes.
I use this as my conceler as well as for the dark circle, does what it says. It comes in a form of a pen with a brush on the tip and a button type at the top which you push to make the liquid form substance release from the brush tip. A essential for all women's purses.
Tips: Dont go over board on pushing that button the more you oush the more product comes out. I dab it with the brush in the spots i want it then use my finger to blend as the brush dont blend well
This had been a high end product that I had been wanting since I started wearing makeup but the price made me hesitant and I thought why pay so much just for a highlighter?
Months of wanting this turned into years and I was still hesitant in purchasing this until my husband asked me what I wanted for Christmas. Knowing to choose something I had been wanting for a long time I told him about the YSL Touche Eclat highlighter, I wish I saw him trying to tell the lady behind the counter what I wanted as English is his second language ( Im so mean!) A few days before Christmas he said he had got me what I had always wanted but the box was alot bigger than I expected. He had brought me one of their gift sets which included an eyeliner, makeup remover, the mascara and the highlighter pen. It was only a matter of minutes that I removed my face of make up just so I could use this magical pen I had been wanting for years.
I have never used anything like this before and I cant believe how much it changed my makeup routine for the better! I get so many compliments on how flawless and radiant my skin looks since using this.
The formula is a medium consistency, so easy to blend and a small amount is all you need for your under eyes, if im going somewhere special I add this down the middle of my nose, above my cupids bow and above my forehead. I like to add some powdered highlighter after applying the highlighter to the tops of my cheek bones to make them stand out more. I also like to blend it using my makeup sponge as it blends easily into my foundation.
I like the concept with the clicking action so you know how much your using and I always start out with less and build up if I need to, I haven't wasted any product because a small amount always comes out, which is different to other applicators that are similar to this one.
For the price I say its worth it 100% I have never used anything like this and its worth every cent, I will definitely be buying this again.
Tips: If Im wearing a bold lipstick I like to dab a tiny bit on the top of my cupids bow, it makes my pout stand out alot better.
When I first started using this, I was ecstatic as it just made me glow, but it finishes so quickly that you begin to realise what an oily base it has on your skin. I would never buy it again for its price and I would definitely say that cheaper brands do a much better job at coverage!
When working in cosmetics I would use this product religiously, however only for its reputation. Personally I have found nicer products that are similar, such as the new Maybelline illuminating stick. Gorgeous packaging though, If i had the cash to splash around i probably would buy it again because it does feel like luxury, however I think it is ovverated for the price!
I absolutely like this pen, it moisturises at the same time it covers my dark area under the eyes. It is the only one I can use, otherwise my skin dries up and it looks quite scaly, or way too orange. It has the perfect tonality for me, it is light and gentle and it does what it is meant to. I don´t use make up, just blush, so this is just perfect for me to get the fresh look!
Tips: I also use it on my eyelids and corner of the eyes to get a really natural look, then I put on my eyeliner and mascara. ;)
I use this as an under eye brightener before putting on powder. It's consistency is light and not gloopy, which makes it really easy to blend. I make multiple little strokes downwards, perpendicular to my bottom lid then pat gently with the pad of my finger to blend. It immediately makes me look brightened and refreshed. On days where I don't work, I can get away with just this and no foundation. I really would prefer the brush to be a little wider as I think it would enable easier application.
Edit 09/01/2016: The applicator has started to annoy me... one click isn't enough and two clicks a whole wad of product comes rushing out! Also, the brush is quite sharp and it's a little pokey. It really should be softer considering it was designed for around-the-eye areas ;(
Tips: It does tend to crease a little bit during the day but I've found I can blend it back into place and it will last a little longer.
