When it comes to the hottest lipstick brands, even people who don't know anything about beauty can name YSL. Although it only opened its first direct counter in Shanghai in 2013, it has already become the favorite of beauty lovers with the popularity of social networks and daigou. YSL's liquid foundation products also performed well, and they were not overshadowed by lipstick, but were excellent for matching items because they were stable. A touch of red lips and a fair face became the representative impression of YSL makeup. Due to the wide variety of names, the official name is different from the usual name, but it can be easily distinguished by the packaging and skin type.
Also known as supermodel foundation, the Bright Color Foundation is packaged in a gold-capped transparent pressure pump bottle and is a liquid foundation that focuses on dewy and glossy finish. The foundation is infused with a lot of moisturizing ingredients such as glycerin and sorbitol, which makes it feel warm and not dry, but not overly moisturizing, making it suitable for most combination skin. Its powder has strong fluidity and is suitable for various makeup application methods, but the coverage is weak, and can only be used to even out skin tone and cover redness, without much filling effect on pores, and concealer products are still needed for acne scars and dark circles. If you want to buy a base makeup that can be used for daily commuting in most seasons, the supermodel's performance is stable enough to provide enough good complexion, and it is also a good choice for getting started with makeup.
Also known as Feather Foundation, the Ink Foundation and All Hours Foundation are both YSL's foundations designed for oily skin, and both are served in square scrub bottles. The feather foundation is divided into an inner and outer lid, and the inner lid is connected to a plastic stick to facilitate the control of the dosage, but it is slightly unhygienic in direct contact with the skin. The feather liquid foundation formula is formulated with a higher percentage of alcohol to help the foundation sit and dry quickly, and the bottle will smell of alcohol when you open the bottle. It has a strong fluidity and an easy-to-spread texture that coats the skin well for lighter coverage. However, the overall finish of the feather foundation lacks the delicate luster of the supermodel foundation, and those with large pores will appear rough after use, and the subsequent makeup will be dull.
All hours is a new product launched in 2017, also known as an upgraded version of feather foundation, but unlike feather foundation, which uses a pick and stick to pick powder, All hours is a more convenient and hygienic pump to pick up powder. Its liquid flow is weak, and when blended, it has a high-coverage texture with higher pigmentation, which is also a matte finish, but more coverage than feathers. The All Hours formula also contains alcohol, so the oil and powder are fused with the powder after makeup, making it suitable for oily and blemish skin. However, those who do not produce enough oil will feel that the floating powder is dry, and the heavier powder makes it easy to get stuck in areas with lines such as under the eyes and nasolabial folds. Although it is a new product, it has not achieved the official claim of full skin application, so it is recommended not to buy it blindly.
Also known as Anti-Aging Foundation, Liquid Youth Foundation is an alcohol-free foundation designed for mature and dry skin, with a variety of moisturizing ingredients. The coverage of the anti-aging foundation is higher than that of the supermodel foundation, which is also a glossy makeup effect, and it can basically cover the undertone after applying evenly, and can also visibly fill the pores, and the finish effect is glossy and gratifying. It's highly moisturizing and doesn't require additional moisturizers to achieve a flawless, creamy complexion, but too much moisture also makes it less durable, and after 5 or 6 hours of makeup, it will start to look slightly dull and melt and need to be touched-up.
The new time of YSL's domestic counter is more synchronized with the international one, and it is convenient to purchase. The liquid foundation is about 600 yuan per bottle, which is about 200 yuan more expensive than the foreign price, and it can generally be purchased in 6-8 shades.
