Whom You Know Kicks off our Coverage of Yves Saint Laurent: Peachy Deegan is in Love with Black Tulip-the Best Lipstick in Manhattan




END-OF-YEAR EVENT 2009

WHEN COLOR BECOMES EXUBERANCE 



The Yves Saint Laurent END-OF-YEAR 2009 make-up collection celebrates passionate colors to dazzle the year’s most festive evenings.   Whom You Know is pleased to kick off our coverage of this iconic brand.  Of the items, Peachy Deegan especially loves the fantastic, smooth coverage of the Pure Lipstick, #149 Black Tulip.



Leaving glitter behind, Yves Saint Laurent opts for the ultimate chic of pure, vibrant, incandescent colors. From sublime red to deep plum, the shades adapt with variable textures, multiple effects and powerful combinations.  Worn alone in a refined monochrome or paired in contrasting duos, they are intensely alive and designed to be freely expressed for an instinctive, ultra couture make-up look.

GLAMOUR PRODUCT

YOUR LOVELY PALETTE 



As a treat for yourself or as a gift, two precious objects stir desire. They go everywhere, are as eye-catching as couture accessories, and they glorify lips and eyes in an instant.




Gold or silver, these sparkling compacts are engraved with the emblematic  
Yves Saint Laurent heart. Their black vinyl straps slip onto a key ring, handbag or belt; it is shown in the above image. 

For daytime or night time, for lips or eyes, they feature two harmonious duos for liberated, intuitive application.



PALETTE DUO POUR LES LÈVRES illuminates the lips with a shiny rosy-beige lipstick and a pearly champagne gloss.



PALETTE DUO POUR LES YEUX lights up the eyes with a pearly lavender used as a highlighter, and outlines them with intense violet.


A built-in mirror and applicator are included for quick touch-ups anywhere, any time. 



MINI TOUCHE BLUSH N°11

The mini version of TOUCHE BLUSH slips into any evening bag. With its soft, faithful puff and mirror, it enhances the face’s voluptuous curves and the décolleté. The new shade N°11 – Sparkling Beige, a slightly scintillating coral beige, gives the skin a subtle ivory aura.  A few caressingly soft touches suffice for instant, ultra-feminine radiance.
