As part of Yves Saint Laurent‘s Summer Look 2013 collection they released three new, and permanent, Terre Saharienne Matte Bronzers ($60 CAD/$50 US). These bronzers are beautifully packaged and incredibly fine milled and smooth. If you are looking for a bronze glow that is matte and blends imperceptibly into your skin for a natural warmth without shimmer or chalkiness then you will be enamoured with these new additions to the YSL lineup.
There are three shades available:
- No 10 Terre Amber (light)
- No 20 Terre Ochre (medium)
- No 30 Terre Tan (dark)
I have the lightest shade Terre Amber to introduce you to today. It offers a sheer veil of colour with the most gorgeous natural finish. It blends beautifully and is perfect for those with fair skin as it melts seamlessly into the skin. It is not sheer in the sense that it doesn’t offer enough colour but rather that it is so finely milled it looks like skin with no visible powder finish or shimmer. The shade is warm with a slight peachy/amber tone. It can still come across as a bit too orange on those with very cool skintones but the gorgeous formula makes it far more suitable than most bronzers. You can see it in use in my YSL Summer Look Post.
Available now at Holt Renfrew, select Bay, Murale, and Sephora boutiques.
