Advantages: very effective for natural looking, beautiful skin

Disadvantages: can be expensive if you don't do your research first

I was initially a little hesistant, as I rarely pay over £20 for a beauty product, but now that i have it, I don't know how I lived without it. I don't wear any foundation as it tends to irritate my skin, but touche eclat gives my skin an instant brightness that hides any shadows/puffy bits I thought I was too young to get! Lovely texture, blends nicely and fits perfectly in my make-up bag.

Recently on holiday I accidentally got terrible sunburn on my nose and chin (terrible for the skin, I know), and the only make-up I had with me was my touche eclat, and it was so gentle on my skin, it took away the silly red blotches, and left me with smooth, natural looking and normal-coloured skin! Obviously its main function is not as a foundation, but its very useful to have in an emergency skin situation, and never irritates my sensitive skin.

I now realise that instead of paying £23 at Boots, I could have paid less on asos.com, who i noticed were recently selling it for under £20. So I would recommend sampling it instore to see if its right for your skin type and tone, and then find the best deal online from a trusted stockist!

Hope this has been helpful :-)

Summary: fantastic product, but worth looking online for the cheapest price
