I don't know if you're aware of this, but Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat is probably the most needed accessory for any working gal.

No matter if you're 25 or 55, you tend to get those horrid under-eye dark circles, am I right? To add to this, most gals also need to cover up around the nose redness, hollow areas on their faces as well as inner eye area darkness. This is where Touche Eclat jumps in with both feet and takes the imperfections away.

You see, YSL Touche Eclat is a highlighter slash Concealer, packed in a gorgeous pen-brush. The best way to use this one is to apply it over your regular base makeup, including your everyday concealer and than smear some Touche Eclat on your problem area. Blend well and the difference will be noticeable, especially under harsh office nights.

Even if you spent the night clubbing or hugging your darling, and have overslept the wakeup call, you can smear some YSL Touche Eclat to bare skin and blend in, for a quick yet ingenious mask of your late night activities.

Also, do get a bit yellower shade than your natural tone, as dark under-eye circles tend to have a purplish hue to them. In addition, don't expect miraculous coverage with Touche Eclat, it's power comes from highlighting, so do use a primary source of covering up and Touche Eclat as a magical look fabulous wand.

Available at Nordstrom for $37,50. This one lasted me for seven months with almost everyday use. Talk about value for money!
