has anyone tried Mister light ? I have only tried samples couple of times and really like it. It is creamier more moisturizing and covers more than YSL touche eclat. I am running out of my YSL so am wondering should I just repurchase it or try Givenchy this time

found some comparison swatches:

I have Mister Light and it's definitely better than Touche Eclat. The latter really is just a highlighter IMO that doesn't cover anything. Mister Light is a real concealer instead. I have no problems with creasing or dryness under the eyes when I use it. It's one of my favourite concealers.
I have #3, Mister Toast, but would like to try Mister Macaroon and maybe Mister Meringue, since both are more rose coloured. Mister Toast is a tad too yellow for me.

I've had a look at your link at the three options there. What I find surprising is that all three seem so similar in the swatches, but I had such different results. Touche Eclat still works quite well for me, though not as good as Mister Light. Dior Skinflash, however, doesn't do anything for me. No coverage, no highlighting. And that's not only my opinion, the sales assistant who tried the product on me immediately said that she rather wouldn't sell it to me because I'd never be happy with it.

I just repurchased Touche Eclat, so I'm not in the market for anything new at the moment. Nevertheless, if you
decide to try Givenchy I'd live to hear what you think of it.

I have never tried dior one.

Touche eclat you are right doesn't cover much or any but does great job illuminating over the concealer. I use it in the inner and outer corner of my eyes where it's especially dark. It just brightens up very nicely.

I did try one color of givenchy mister light but forgot which one. I like them to be slightly more pink toned because it neutralizes darkness better.

Also to throw clarins in this too - they are really nice and I would say cover as much as givenchy. I might get that since I have discount on clarins

I have not tried these Interdit ones.

the one I ordered gives more color.

Is it fragranced? I'd like to try it if it isn't.

No, it's completely fragrance-free. It doesn't smell at all, not even that "medical" smell that some of the officially fragrance-free products have.
Thank you! That is good news. I might get it at Pieper next time they have 20% off.

Yeah, it's rather pricey, isn't it? Parfumdreams recently had 11% off, but I think it only lasted until the end of March.
Givenchy is already a couple of € cheaper at Pieper, so I always try to order it there. It's a good deal when they have the additional 20% off.

And their 20% off events are such a great excuse to get something you'd otherwise couldn't justify ....
