I have and none have jumped out at me. Now that I have Charlotte Tilbury's Hepburn Honey, I will check out TF again and see what he has that is similar in terms of undertone.
her colors look fantastic! hope you find!!

i am still trying to read thread, i would be FURIOUS! did you end up finding it?
I did! Thanks, lady. Saks.com had them at 4 am the following day very briefly. After Neiman giving my preorder away and TF.com canceling my order, I'm mind of expecting an empty box when it arrives on Wednesday, hehe. This is my first Tom Ford purchase and I'm not too sure I want to do this again :)

ironically i have fallen in love with stroked, i added to order at last minute as a just in case! i am medium skin + find that a combo of CT wonder glow + TF stroked on cheeks (+ a light swish on eye lids of highlight) + C les beiges (mattes any shiny bits or if i put on too much highlight) + gloss is heaven for me! i have also tried with a drop of foundation too and its great - for me, it gives a look of coming home from the beach, so natural + youthful - i think the CT wonder glow may be best for medium and up but i have not seen enough pics to be sure....i spoke to a few people with dark skin and they preferred stroked...

if you need to order sight unseen stroked is warm + softcore is colder, i really think the colors are so close on the blush part, i could not tell a difference as i did one of each cheek, the difference appears when you put on the highlight as stroked is a goldish peach + softcore is a pinky silverish

the collection looks SOOOOO different on everyone!

i don't like orange but twist of fate does not look orange on me!

is anyone still looking? has everyone found what they wanted?

so sorry that happened to you, i called TF.com and had a word, they are horrible, the SA was in lala land, clueless! i need to speak with a friend, but i am thinking of those who had a bad experience here, we could somehow perhaps get a token of appreciation, i'll think about it and let y'all know and if i think they would actually do something that would benefit us, if so i will do it, i'll post back....

i am so happy you were able to find another, i don't blame you for being upset with TF, this whole release was a joke, people complained about charlotte tilbury release on temptalia but that was perfection compared to this craziness, i can't remember the other releases being like this, first time that TF.com was involved too but no excuse....

hopefully the beautiful quad will help ease the torture!

I used the lightest shade in the inner corner and on the brow bone. that light peachy champagne shade all over the lid. taupe shade just very lightly in the crease and outer corner and then darkest shade -wet outer corner and into the crease

thank you everyone. It's all practice practice practice.... I have some "bad" eyeliner days and sometimes I have good eyeliner days

Here I used MAC fluidline blacktrack
i tried this but nothing like monsy! i wish you would do a tutorial, your look is the best one i have seen anywhere! ever done a video? pretty please with TF glitter sprinkled on top! do you make dots then connect? are you in m/u biz?? just perfect + beautiful!!

Really interesting observations you've made here about Stokes and Softcore. Thanks for that. Now I'm super anxious to get my goodies this week.

Yazmin. What do you think of CT's HH?? I'm in the market for a really nice nude lippie and would love some recommendations.

Medgal. I love CT's HH! I had been on the lookout for a nude that is less mauve or rose undertones, and didn't lean too brown either. Initially, I thought Nude Kate would fit the bill, but it was too ashy. The MA then put HH on me and I was immediately sold. Now I have something I can compare other brand nudes to when I'm shopping for more nudes.

I'll try to get a good lip pic with it on so you can get an idea of what it looks like on a deeper skin tone.

I just got Nude Dip in the mail from Nordstrom. Haven't tried it. I'm surprised that the shadows are a little chipped around the edges. Ugh. But the pans are huge! This is an expensive item but it'll go a long way...if I keep it.

look a mini me how cute
Oh my! Me likey! How can I manage one of those?

All you gals have me thinking hard about Twist of Fate and the contours. I'm madly in love with Negligee! Its such a gorgeous color.. a bit of a dark nude on me. Rawr! This collection has me TF hooked!
 
I've been really dragging my feet on if I wanted to buy anything and if it was REALLY worth it. I'm always like I could buy 2 mac lipsticks for one Tom Ford one. lol

Hey Med, unable to quote but love the Illicit/BA combo. Gotta try that! When I do my pre- buy quad percentage rating (yes, I do it to decide if a quad is worth getting) Burnished Amber is the only one with 100% rating as I equally love and use all 4 colors. The best TF quad ever in my opinion!

Hi Honey!!! I hope you will try it. I'm loving Illicit----thanks to you sweets!!!!

Do you ever change your mind either way after you've purchased a quad?
