As I dream of a climate that would leave me feeling less like a main-course at a barbecue, Yves Saint Laurent Beauté seems to have embraced the heat and the sun. For the brand’s new summer makeup collection named Savage Escape, we a range of products that are inspired by a road trip in the desert.

With the sunbaked roads and unlimited freedom serving as a destination of choice for Lloyd Simmonds, the collection sees a natural, tanned and glowing complexion — but only where necessary. To naturally enhance your complexion, reach for the Sahariennes Bronzing Stones. The creamy powder, with its ultra-fine texture was created using a new micronization technique. The result is a product so light that it barely leaves a trace on your skin. Choose between three shades such as Sunstone, Fire Opal and Jasper to suit various skin tones.
