I featured the brand new Youth Liberator Serum Foundation from YSL at the beginning of the month and now I have finally had a chance to have a proper play with it and guess what?! I’m very happy!! For all the technical info and claims, check out my previous post (link above) but for now, have a little look at my pictures!

YSL Youth Liberator Serum Foundation Review
The shade I use in the YSL Teint Touche Eclat foundation is BD40 which is not actually available in the Youth Liberator foundation. So I have shades B30 and BD50 to try. Here are those 2 shades on the back of my hand.

YSL Youth Liberator Serum Foundation Swatches – B30 and BD50
I mixed the B30 and BD50 together (slightly more of the BD50), and found a lovely shade that evened out my complexion really well.
Here’s the before and after photos:

And here is a close up shot of the finish on my skin. As you can see, it is a medium to full coverage that conceals any imperfections very well yet still looks natural. Whilst it has a slightly more matte finish than the YSL Teint Touch Eclat, it is still very luminous on the skin and allows it to glow. I found I didn’t need to use any concealer.

And here it is with a bit more makeup!

And just to give you an idea of what it looked like on my skin a while after it had been applied, here it is approximately 7 hours later. Sorry about the miserable looking mug shot! I was tired!! But my skin was still looking perky, I’m pleased to report!

Basically, I really love this foundation and it really is everything I hoped it would be. With its SPF20 and YSL anti-ageing ingredients, it is going to be a perfect foundation for everyday. Read more about it on my first YSL Youth Liberator Serum Foundation post.

  • What a beautiful foundation! I found that the Touche Eclat foundation was too light in coverage for my skin so I definitely need to give this a whirl. It looks stunning on you.

  • I am seriously thinking of purchasing this foundation as I am currently using my YSL Le Teint Touche Eclat and am very satisfied with YSL in general. I do have problems with choosing my shade though. My Le Teint Touche Eclat is B50, what could be the equivalent in the Youth liberator Serum foundation? Would really appreciate your help.

    • I am a bit stuck on this because they don’t do my shade in the new foundation so I currently mix 2. BD 50 is pictured above to give you an idea. I have heard that they are pretty similar shade wise and that they have adaptive technology too. Does that help?
