One of my current beauty obsessions is Yves Saint Laurent Touche Brilliance. It's a sheer, thin-textured, sweet-smelling lip gloss that comes in a clickable pen, and it contains little specs of glitter that create the most incredible amount of shine.

One of the "It" bags of late, we've seen it on the hippest of Hollywood ladies and no wonder - it's roomy, durable and oh so soft!
