Is the YSL SKIN AFFAIR Soft Glow Cushion Foundation Worth It? Swatches + Wear Test!

Alicia Archer Guide 1 months ago

Description

The new Yves Saint Laurent Skin Affair Soft Glow Cushion Foundation is truly extraordinary. I was open to all possibilities, and was delightfully surprised when I discovered how high performing this foundation is. The Skin Affair has quickly become my summertime skin go-to and I look forward to how it wears for the rest of the season!

I also shared some product alternatives you can purchase from @iherb and will work on a separate video that includes more of my recommendations.
