[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] i love how thin this foundation is while still providing coverage. on me it does kind of cling to dry patches but a thicker moisturizer before helps. i’d also prefer this without the scent but it is very light and fades fast!

I LOVE THIS!!!!
I’m actually very impressed. I tend to be very critical of most foundations but I can’t say that I found any negatives in the 3 times I have worn this foundation. The cute packaging caught my eye, and I’m so glad I gave it a try! I think it might be a new staple!!!

Expensive but absolutely worth every penny.
This is the most beautiful cushion foundation I’ve tried! It’s expensive for the size, but absolutely worth it! I love the medium glow finish, perfect for everyday wear! I have normal/dry textured skin, and it worked for me!

Cute packaging
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Shade was way way to light. It goes on really smooth and seems to last for awhile. I’ve only been using it as a brightener since it’s so light

Most Beautiful Foundation creates beautiful skin
I was looking for a new foundation. I presently use Armani. After reading the reviews I had to give the YSL skin affair foundation a try. Extremely happy with the result. Very nicely packaged. Shade was perfect. A little goes a long way. The puff applicator is all you need. I am a big brush fan and this is not necessary. Builds easy but let dry and set between applications. Can blend with other shades if needed for summer months. I just opened my package to try fast and did not have concealer or primer on before trying. I am 71 years old and finding a foundation for my skin at this age is not easy. Texture is very difficult and this does not set into pores or fine lines.. I am a fan forever, no more heavy foundations that only create more problems. Give it a try you won’t be disappointed. I did this online at home so I took a chance that the color I picked was correct. I followed the guide. I am a fan of YSL Touché Eclait for many years. This is the first foundation I’ve tried from YSL very pleased. They stand behind their products. Yes as a foundation it is pricey however, you do get what you pay for and a little goes a long way with this product.

Worth every penny
This product is amazing. I cannot stop recommending this. Does not clog pores, goes on smooth, gives you a dewy finish. It’s my skin but better. If you like a matte finish, this is not for you. But if you want that glow, get this. It is worth every penny.

Review for YSL Skin Affinity Soft Glow
I recently tried the YSL Skin Affinity Soft Glow Cushion Foundation in shade DN2, and I can honestly say that it exceeded my expectations in several ways. From the luxurious packaging to the performance of the product itself, this cushion foundation delivers a premium makeup experience that feels elegant and effective.
The first thing that caught my attention was the beautiful compact design. The soft pink quilted top with the iconic gold YSL logo gives it a sophisticated and luxurious look. It feels sturdy, high-quality, and perfect for carrying in a handbag. The compact includes a mirror and a cushion puff, making it very convenient for touch-ups throughout the day.
When it comes to application, the foundation applies smoothly and evenly. The cushion puff picks up just the right amount of product, allowing for a controlled application without wasting foundation. The texture is lightweight and comfortable on the skin, which is one of my favorite aspects. Unlike some foundations that can feel heavy or cakey after a few hours, this one feels breathable and natural from morning until evening.
The finish is exactly what the name suggests: a soft, radiant glow. It gives the skin a healthy, fresh appearance without looking oily or overly shiny. The coverage is buildable, ranging from light to medium, which makes it versatile for different occasions. For everyday wear, one layer provides a natural and polished look, while an additional layer can help cover redness, uneven skin tone, and minor imperfections.
Another feature I appreciate is how well it blends into the skin. The foundation creates a seamless finish that looks skin-like rather than makeup-like. It enhances the complexion while still allowing the natural beauty of the skin to show through. The shade DN2 matched my skin tone very well and provided a balanced, natural-looking result.

Beautiful glow!
I'm in love with this product! It lives up to the hype. Easy to apply even with the little applicator it comes with, and has the most beautiful glowy, dewy finish. Light feel, but great coverage.

Perfection
I rarely write reviews, but I had to with this one. It is one of the most blurring foundations I have ever tried. I love the very soft glow finish it provides, while lasting all day. I also love that it sets very well on the skin and doesn't move around. Thr packaging is also a 10 out of 10. Can't recommend this enough! (Combo skin)
