This summer´s look at Yves Saint Laurent is a tribute to the incredibly colourful imagination of Africa. The rich colour palette is enhanced by the fantastic light and cultural essence of African lands.

The make-up is natural, its predominant orange tones broken up by strikingly blue eyes. It´s an interesting combination of light and dark, with contrasts as a metaphor for seduction. The sensual sun illuminates the face with golden tones, thanks to their Poudre de Soleil Collector, which comes in a wooden box and contains bronze pigments.

The eyeshadow colour palette features Tresor D´Afrique, with purple, indigo, yellow, turquoise and ocre, lending a dramatic touch. Best of all, you can combine them and create new colour palettes.

The lips are in an African colour palette too, with fuschias, pinks and oranges. All the colour of Africa on your skin!
