I think I’ve made this claim before. In fairness, I’ve tried a lot of foundations as part of my job, and dewy formulas are my jam. So if a foundation hits my favourites list, you can be sure it’s pretty good.
Speaking of my favourites list, there’s a new kid on the block who’s quickly climbing the ranks: YSL’s
Touche Éclat All-In-One Glow Foundation. This foundation is literally ticking all of the dewy skin boxes.

What Sets This Foundation Apart?
I think the number one thing I love about this foundation is how beautifully it blends into the skin. It’s so smooth and hydrating, it just glides on regardless of what you use to apply it – I’ve used a brush, sponge and fingertips and the finish is flawless every time.
Provides light to medium buildable coverage, I’d say it’s just slightly heavier than a tinted moisturiser
Super hydrating & comfortable to wear with a natural dewy finish
It’s an oil-free, long-wearing formula packaged in a travel-friendly tube
Softly conceals imperfections without ever looking mask-like or cakey
Smooths skin texture & evens out the skin tone for a flawless complexion
Leaves the skin glowy & radiant (best suited to normal-dry skin types)

What’s In It?
YSL’s
Touche Éclat All-In-One Glow Foundation contains 70% water, hyaluronic acid and vitamin E, as well as other protective antioxidants and soothing ingredients like calendula, which explains why it’s such a comfortable, hydrating foundation to wear.
PRO TIP: Because this formula is so dewy, I lightly powder down my T-zone with a translucent setting powder to prevent my skin looking too shiny throughout the day. If you have dry skin though, you probably won’t need the powder.

The Reviews:
★★★★★ Natural glow – Kelly Lee
“I usually use the All Hours foundation and didn’t think this would have the same staying power, I was wrong. It felt really light on my skin and I didn’t need to use a lot to get the coverage I wanted. It lasted a full day in a hot office without any touch-ups ( I even got a comment about how clear my skin looked) and was equally good after a night out.”
★★★★★ Glowing – Josey
“I really like the pump dispenser that this comes in, the click closure lid is great. Colour wise it was a perfect shade for me and I was pleased with how comfortable this felt in my skin and how flawless it made my not-quite-so-perfect complexion look.”
★★★★★ A winner! – Estelle
“I was so worried that to get the lightweight feel and dewy look, I would lose in coverage. But no, this foundation covers imperfections and gives a unified look to my skin without making it greasy. On top of that, I get a gorgeous glow! Even my pictures and selfies look better! My skin looks healthier, more hydrated, simply beautiful!”
