APPLICTION OF TOUCHE ECLAT

To apply the touché éclat there are many methods. The diagram on the left shows how to highlight and contour your face your face with the touché éclat.

Anywhere that you use the No1 touché éclat or a few shades lighter shade from your skin tone of touché éclat will bring out you’re features and make them look more refreshed and brighter and add a glow due to the Luminocapitide Complex.

To contour with touché éclat use a few shades lighter shade of touché éclat on the darker areas that are shown on the diagram. This will slim your face down, make you’re nose look slimmer, smaller forehead and over all give a more chiseled face.

Every face shape is different and everyone likes to show and hide different features of the face. Just remember the rule the lighter area brings out the features and the darker areas take the features in!

A very important tip that a lot of people do not know is that you always use the touché éclat after your foundation! If you use it before your foundation you will not get the full effect of the highlight, so always use it after your foundation.

I personally use the touché éclat on special occasions or on any days I look tired and need to look awake. I apply a little under the eyes in an upside down triangle as shown in the diagram and just above the cupid bow to give more of a fuller lip look, these are my everyday natural look areas but when there are special occasion I tend do apply to all the areas in the diagram highlight and contour with No1 and No7.

The key is to make it look natural is to blend it out, you can either use a stippling brush or a sponge, which will give it more natural look
