Yves Saint Laurent – Spring Look 2009

By looking to the greatest artists of his time for inspiration, Yves Saint Laurent created his very own language: that of color in its purest state which sets the stage for a dazzling woman with an intense power of seduction.

The NEW SPRING LOOK 2009 is a passionate new take on the visionary contrasts invented by Yves Saint Laurent: a shock of colors in vibrating harmonies of yellow and pink, orange and fuchsia, green and violet, ochre and blue.

Happy, idealistic and in love with freedom, the Yves Saint Laurent woman uses a poetic make-up palette, inspired by contemporary art to exalt her beauty with soft, colored lights.

Abstract works of art

Icons of the collection are two limited edition palettes inspired by abstract art: each one offers an original, graphic interpretation of luminous, soft colors, and the poetry of vibrant harmonies that invite women to become the artists of their own beauty.

PALETTE D’ARTISTE
COLLECTOR POWDER FOR THE COMPLEXION

The palette has everything it takes: a pale, sunny earth shade to warm and sculpt the face, vibrant orange and tender pink to brighten and heat up the intensity, and light pink to highlight and illuminate prominent features with a satiny sheen.

PALETTE D’ARTISTE
COLLECTOR POWDER FOR THE EYES

This quartet offers a poetic vision of the eyes.  The intensity of their shades makes the eyes dance with pure color.

GLOSS PUR

The revelation for autumn 2008, the limited edition GLOSS PUR N° 49 – Black redefined the codes of seduction by brandishing the designer’s favorite color – black – on the lips. Today, GLOSS PUR celebrates color in its purest state: no sparkles or demi-tones, just extreme shine and infinite comfort to clearly proclaim the desire to smile brightly at life.

GLOSS PUR is definitely not for the self-effacing woman. But it is a must for those who want to be seen, to dazzle and seduce.

This supremely fashionable gloss boasts a collection of nude shades like the flesh-colored N° 1 – Pure Nude and soft pink N° 2 – Pure Rose, and intense, fruity shades like the raspberry N° 4 – Pure Raspberry, fluorescent orange N° 3 – Pure Coral, burnt sienna N° 6 – Pure Plum and the essential N° 5 –  Pure Fuchsia, the iconic Yves Saint Laurent shade.  

The pure expression of color by Yves Saint Laurent, GLOSS PUR pairs perfectly with ROUGE PUR Pure Lipstick to endow each woman with her own unique radiance.
