“Daring Contrast” is the theme of YSL’s fall 2007 collection. The contrast is between very pale and intensely dark shades, as we see from the limited-edition Palette Couture, with a pattern of the back of a couture gown.
There are some luxurious looking eyeshadow duos, also with a little bit of that light/dark contrast.
The collection also includes:
Rouge Pure Shine Sheer Lipstick: four colors
Rouge Pur (Pure Lipstick): two colors
Variation Blush: one color
Everlong Mascara: one color
Shimmering Eyeliner: one color
La Laque (Long-lasting Nail Lacquer): two colors
I will be waiting to test the two palettes and the eyeshadow duos, even though overall I think this collection is slightly lackluster and lacks originality. I am already hoping for a dazzling Christmas collection from YSL later this year!

Having many shades of make up to choose from makes concealing little things like pimples and dark under eye circles so much easier!
I can’t wait to try this line.
Hello there again!!
Ha…But it is much more important to have a beautifully blank canvas to start off with, isn’t it?
It has been ages since I have heard the term “Rouge” associated with modern day make up. It sounds terribly glamorous and retro, which is a smart move by YSL.
Hello there,
YSL’s Rouge lipstick lines have been around for a while, but indeed this season will see some retro looks, like Givenchy’s eyeshadow palette, which is inspired by Audrey Hepburn’s classic look.
