These are the products I most want to try from the line. It's proven really difficult to get TF products here in Canada and I hear nothing but great things about these blushes. I'd love to hear more feedback from the ladies here!
Katred, my Holt said Toronto Bloor sells Tom Ford and that you can either call the store directly and have them ship to your door or your local Holts, OR, order through the store and you wont have to pay shipping.

Is this one posted already? It is interesting that there is also a quad in there. It is written there should even be two, but the other one's tester has not yet arrived. I have also heard that the two new quads may be already existing asia exclusive quads (Seductive Rose and Lavender Lust) and that the new released mascara right now available in Asia.

No I don't think this has been posted. Good to know. I may just call to see when the products are due in. The primer sounds interestiing. I wouldn't mind new quads. I wonder why they did trios instead.

I'm super curious about that primer, I have to admit. Even though it will probably be prohibitively expensive (I'm always a little reticent to spend big $$ on things that I'm going to go through frequently).

I'm still waiting for an update on that gorgeous looking deep red/ berry lipstick. Even though Tom has already provided me with one of my favourite vampy Fall lipsticks (Black Orchid), I have a feeling I'm going to be tempted by that one.

Let us know if you know the names of the new quads. :)
I called Saks to see when the new collection would be in. They said first week of September. That seems really late to me. I forgot to ask about the particulars of the collection, namely the quads. I kind of forgot about Bergdorff's too.

I seem to recall that TF and Burberry are later than most other brands with their seasonal collections, generally speaking. Since both are smaller "exclusive" brands, I can sort of see them not wanting to get lost in the August onslaught of launches.

And now, just to taunt those of us who don't live in Asia...

What shocks me is that they'd be massively popular anywhere. They're just leaving money on the table limiting their availability.

It just doesn't make any sense.

Here's a review of one of the Fall items- Black Sugar nail polish. At least we can buy that!

Some more swatches

Looks good! I think "Bruised" is actually the discontinued shade "Bruised Plum", which makes me happy, since it's one that I'd meant to pick up. Now if they'd only bring back Moroccan Rouge...

Here's an image of the old colours, so you can see another Bruised Plum swatch.

T posted the full colour story:

http://www.temptalia.com/tom-ford-beauty-fall-2013-color-collection-private-blend-atelier-dorient-collection

In the comments, one reader says that four of the existing quads are being discontinued AND (cue dramatic scary music) Black Orchid as well!! Why would they do that? Why? It makes no sense. This is the one colour that I consistently see pointed out by bloggers and beauty fans as being really distinctive- because it's comparatively rare to find a really intense vampy lipstick in a prestige brand.

This collection (makeup and fragrance) looks beautiful, but some of the marketing decisions going on at that company are making it seem like people have been hitting the opium pipe...

I wonder which quads are going. I was planning to get Burnished Amber this fall. Maybe I should step it up. I just don't know why they did trios instead of quads. I would think it had to do with pricing but they are still $$. They might as well had done a quad. I know these are dupeable but I still want them.

So on my list are:

  • The PInk
  • She Wolf - great name!
  • eye shadow primer duo

The SA told me he'd give me a call when the products came in because last time they came earlier than expected but you never know if they actually will. That being said maybe it will be good if they don't come until September - gives me more time to save.

I asked about this and was told cobalt rush (definitely), burnished amber (probably), and (most likely) 2 more. She is going to give me a call when she knows for sure about everything.

Update: Cobalt Rush, Violet Dusk, Crushed Amethyst, and Burnished Amber are being discontinued. Burnished Amber is no longer offered on NM.com.

Thanks so much. I'll see if I can still get the Burnished Amber. I was considering the Violet Dusk and the Crushed Amethyst but I don't have to have them. I think they are similar to each other and I already have Enchanted.

I do hope this means more quads are being added to the permanent line.

Edit - I was just thinking - Why would they discontinue both purple quads from the permanent line? Why not just one? But it would make sense if they are indeed bringing in the Lavender Lust - the Asia exclusive palette but not if they are going to keep Lavender Lust limited edition.

I am hoping that both exclusive palettes and 3 ls become available in the US. I really would like to get the neutral palette and all 3 ls without having to jump through hoops or pay even more $$.
