annie's beauty... TOM FORD Golden Peach vs By Terry Frozen Quartz1

Tom Ford‘s Golden Peach was, along with Naked Bronze, the two best sold Limited Edition eyeshadow duos from last year’s Soleil Summer Collection. Everybody wanted it, some lucky ones actually got it and fell in love from the first use!… I got it as well, and it’s safe to say that this is probably my most loved and used cream eyeshadow in my entire collection!

But wait! Here comes the best part! I recently found a permanent dupe for Golden Peach! It’s the By Terry Ombre Blackstar in Frozen Quartz. I know that the Tom Ford Golden Peach is a re-promote with the fairly recent launched 2016 Soleil Summer Collection, but the By Terry “Color-Fix” Cream Eye Shadow is just as good, pretty similar in terms of consistency, pigmentation and colour, and it also comes in this very practical and easy to use packaging. Plus it’s less expensive than it’s otherwise glorious dupe!    

I have a complete review on it and all the By Terry Ombre Blackstar “Color-Fix” Cream Eye Shadows in my makeup collection, here.

annie's beauty... TOM FORD Golden Peach vs By Terry Frozen Quartz3

Here you have a swatch-comparison of the two eyeshadows; the only difference you can barely sense between the two is that Frozen Quartz shows up a bit cooler than Golden Peach… Nothing too obvious on the eyelids when applied and gets to set though!

Both formulas are creamy, easy to blend, buildable, great colour pay-off and amazing longevity! Excellent to use as a base for your eye makeup, instead of a primer. Your eye makeup won’t crease or move around the entire day!

Which one would you prefer, Beautiful?

As always, thanks for reading and…

See you soon!

xx, Annie

This weekend’s post is not going to be about makeup, but it will bring you such a luxurious item that has the given power to make anyone look fabulous! This is the Tom Ford, Limited Edition, Shimmering Body Oil, from the Summer 2015 Soleil Makeup Collection.

image

“This is just another body oil brands always come out during Summer!“,

some might say. And you might think they’re right until you get to try this for the first time!

The smell is so nice and the texture is beyond amazing! I’m not the biggest fan of body oils and I haven’t found too many to suit my demands. But unlike all the oils I have tried, this one is by far the best and the most luxurious feeling!

It absorbs instantly and doesn’t leave a greasy residue, no matter how much you apply! It makes your skin feel smooth and silky and thanks to these playful gold and platinum leaf shimmering particles you’ll be wearing the diffused glow of an angel!

Make sure you shake it well before you apply it, because it separates!

It is the most beautiful final touch to a sun-kissed summer skin! Plus it is really hydrating and emollient thanks to the lightweight oils in its composition, that will feel amazing on your sun drenched skin, after a full day on the beach enjoying the sun and the waves.

image imageimage

Its captivating fragrance wraps a bouquet of white florals in a golden, amber-sandalwood embrace

– this is a description I found online about the scent of this body oil and I think this is the closest to the truth it can get! I for instance, wasn’t able to come out with a better description for it than: a tropical garden, coconutty, delicious goodness that lingers on my skin throughout the whole day.

Scents are personal, but this is how I feel it smells combined with the chemistry of my own skin!

image

Another particularity of the Tom Ford Shimmering Body Oil is its consistency! This is not one of those oils that can be sprayed on the skin as it comes out as a concentrated, dense, almost jelly-like oil that I warm up between my hands before I use it and then apply it wherever I want!

I’ve been wearing it a lot as a perfume lately, so I mainly apply a tiny bit on my neck, shoulders and hands! It is a powerful scent and if you’re familiar with the fragrances from the Tom Ford Private Blend Collection, it’s something along those lines… Powerful, seductive and long-lasting!

Plus, the packaging is pure perfection and I think it would look amazing on any vanity!

I hope you enjoyed this post and make sure you check out the reviews on my other picks from the Tom Ford Summer 2015 Collection: Pink Sand – cream blush, Golden Peach – cream eyeshadow duo, Skinnydip and Rose Soleil – sheer lipsticks.

See you soon, beautiful!

xx, Annie

Totally addicted to TOM FORD Summer 2015 Soleil Collection: the New and Limited Edition Lip Color Sheers in Skinnydip & Rose Soleil

Another week, another update on the Tom Ford Soleil Summer 2015 Collection!

image

These lipsticks were my favourite lately but they aren’t everyone’s favourite formula! Most people who like the really pigmented, saturated with colour and highly opaque Tom Ford Lip Color original lipsticks, might be a little disappointed after trying these because they are, as their name suggests, a sheer product.

To be completely honest with you, it took me quite a long time as well to justify splurging on these… Until I got my first one that is! My first pick was #02 Smitten, followed closely by the beautiful, everyday nude #05 Bare, both previously reviewed on this little blog.

And with new colours incased in the beautiful ivory and gold special, limited edition, they come with every summer, I knew I couldn’t say no to them anymore and grabbed whatewer shades I found available online.

So, here you have the Tom Ford Sheer Lip Color in #09 Skinnydip and #10 Rose Soleil!

image

#09 Skinnydip is more if a peachy colour with pink undertones to it. You can clearly see how the gold shimmers in it transfer on the lips… There’s no need of a close up because they’re obvious! This was the only colour out of the four that came up with this collection that I had second thoughts about! And it was precisely because of these glitters that give your lips more of a metallic sheen rather than a touch of colour.

image

But the more I wore it, the more I liked it! And with a bit of a tan on, this looks absolutely, effortlessly fabulous, even with a semi-sheer coverage and the actual product that feels a little “thin” in consistency than any other Tom Ford Sheer that I own!

image

#10 Rose Soleil can be described as a semi-sheer, soft plummy colour with warm brown undertones and holographic glitters, not as obvious on the lips as the ones in Skinnydip though. They are easily seizable on the bullet due to the deepness of the colour and in certain lights appear more of a muted gold and more pink. I love them as a  final touch as they give your lips a diffused, ethereal shine.

image

On my pigmented lips it translates as this beautiful rosy colour with an extra-something added by the soft, shiny finish I mentioned earlier.

These two new shades are simply amazing for the Summer, even Rose Soleil that I initially thought it is more of an Autumn shade! But no, it works as well this time of the year too due to those magical shiny particles in it!

imageimage

They both create a lovely luminous look, they brighten up your complexion, they make your lips look fuller and plumped. They are also a little bit more moisturising than the other Tom Ford lipsticks I own ( see some of them here, here and here ) and they are definitely the most low maintenance ones from their entire lipstick range, excellent for an on-the-go application! 

I definitely recommend them both, although I’m aware that they’re not for everyone!

What do you think about them lovely? Have you tried them yet?

See you soon, Beautiful!

xx, Annie

Another Little Dose of TOM FORD Summer 2015 Soleil Collection: the New and Limited Edition Cream and Powder Eye Color in shade #03 Golden Peach

Yes, I’m giving you only small doses of the Tom Ford Summer 2015 Soleil Collection but not because I an a meanie but because I just want you to see it and appreciate in all its glory, item by item.

photo 1 copy

So, today it’s the turn of this amazing cream eyeshadow, the Cream and Powder Eye Color in shade #03 Golden Peach.

Tom Ford is well known for his amazing eyeshadows and these Limited Edition cream shadows are as great as the regular powder ones. Hence the fact that they were the second best sold items every time they are released!

#03 Golden Peach is one of the four shades that came out with the Soleil Smmer 2015 Collection ( see the other ones in this post here ).

It’s a premiere in the world of Tom Ford makeup because of its structure. This one comes in a form of a duo made of a glittery, powder eyeshadow ( that “mature” very pigmented glitter that has a beautiful application and minimal fall out! ) in a beautiful an unique soft peachy colour, with warm, brown undertones. That gorgeous glitter makes a lovely pair with the beautiful peachy-pink almost rose gold cream eyeshadow, which some say it’s a repromote of another cream eyeshadow – Pink Haze. As for the glittery shade that is definitely similar in formulation to all the other glitter shades Tom Ford does flawlessly!

image

If you’re familiar with the Tom Ford cream formulas you already know how extremely long-wearing they are, how intensely pigmented, and how smooth and easily blendable the application is.

These two eyeshadows can be worn separately or layered together to achieve the look that suits your every need. It’s probably one of the most versatile eyeshadows I own in my collection this far!

Along with their Cream Blush in Pink Sand, which is also a Limited Edition item ( see review here ) these were the two makeup pieces I thought to myself that I HAD to have them and luckily I managed to get my hands on!

I hope you enjoyed this little short yet helpful presentation of a yet another beautiful Tom Ford product from their Soleil Summer 2015 Collection! Stay tuned for more in the following days!

In the meanwhile, please share your picks from this collection and the experiences you had with them! Recommendations are also welcomed!

See you soon, beautiful!

A Little Dose of TOM FORD Summer 2015 Soleil Collection: the New and Limited Edition Cream Cheek Color in #01 Pink Sand

This is by far my favourite piece of the new Tom Ford Summer 2015 Soleil Collection!

I know many have as a favourite the Eye and Cheek Palette, but as far as I’m concerned the blush won me for its novelty and breath of fresh air it brought in an otherwise predictable, yet always gorgeous Summer collection!

This is the Tom Ford Cream Cheek Color in #01 Pink Sand. It’s the first cream product for the face that I’ve tried and it’s safe to say that this luminous soft pink blush, with warm undertones and golden iridescence won my heart irremediably!

It’s a blush-meets-highlighter in one which makes it unique and a must have, if you ask me! Since the summer finally arrived I’m more for a natural, glowing makeup and on my fair skin this can be used as a blush as well as to add the radiance of a highlighter ( a step minus in my makeup routine, right?! ).

image

It’s so creamy and soft, and I have to warn you that this one doesn’t transfer on the cheeks as pigmented as the traditional cream blushers you might have tried do ( think Chanel, for instance! ). Therefore it’s harder to make mistakes! It has colour to it but the finish is more of a satin, and throughout the day it keeps its shine without making you look greasy, or accentuate any imperfections.

Tom Ford describes it as a “healthy glow and natural burst of color” which means that this is a quite sheer product essentially, but it can also be build-up to a maximum of semi-opaqueness. Which I don’t mind at all, and I’m sure that all the lovers of a natural blush look won’t mind as well!

photo 5 copy – here you have it heavily swatched and blended out to a sheer coverage. I hope you can still see the golden reflections in it! Glorious!

 

HOW I APPLY IT!

I think that to really make this product work at its full potential you need to take your time with it and make sure that you warm it really well between your fingers. Yes, it’s one of the few products I really like to apply with my fingers! But I also think that a nice synthetic stippling brush does an amazing job as well!

[ I haven’t tried it with my #06 Tom Ford Cheek Brush yet, but I will and update you on that too! ]

I gently pat the product onto my cheeks making sure not to press to hard to move my foundation! A trick to make the application easier is to apply Pink Sand before the foundation has time to dry down and it’s still “wet” – if that makes any sense. Like that the two kind of melt together and create a natural, compact look!

As for that packaging… What else there’s to say but that it’s gorgeous! The ivory and gold combination Tom Ford uses for all his summer collections will always melt the heart of any makeup lover!

What is your favourite item from the Tom Ford Summer 2015 Soleil Collection, lovely?

See you soon, beautiful!

xx, Annie
