First off, I totally get the hunt. I’ve been there, scrolling through Sephora reviews until my eyeballs felt like they were gonna pop out. Remember that YSL Touche Eclat All-In-One Glow? That stuff was GOLD! Why they discontinued it, I have no flippin’ clue. Seriously, someone needs to start a petition. Maybe we can get it back if we all band together? Anyway, the struggle is *real* to find something that gives you that same “I woke up like this” glow without costing half a week’s paycheck.
I saw some chatter about the YSL Nu Bare Look Tint. Apparently, SKINSKOOL has a whole list of dupes for it? I should probably check that out later, tbh. I’m always on the lookout for a good deal. Tho, sometimes dupes just…aren’t the same, you know? Like, you think you’re getting a good deal and then the color’s off or it feels all sticky on your face. Ugh, the worst!
And then there’s the whole CC cream thing. I saw someone mention it in there. That’s kinda what the All-In-One Glow was, right? Finding a dupe for *that* is even harder! It’s like, tinted moisturizer meets sunscreen meets color correction magic.
Oh! Speaking of tinted moisturizers, I saw someone on r/Sephora asking about the *best* one. The comments might have something useful. Gotta dive deeper into the depths of Reddit later.
Honestly, I’m kinda bouncing all over the place here, but that’s because finding a decent YSL dupe is a JOURNEY. It’s not just about finding something that’s the same color. It’s about the feel, the finish, the way it makes your skin look. It’s about that whole “je ne sais quoi” thing that YSL kinda nails, even if it makes my wallet cry.
Don’t even get me started on the YSL lip oils they used to have! Those were amazing. They left such a nice tint, like a my-lips-but-better thing, but super moisturizing. Sigh. They discontinue all the good stuff, don’t they?
