Tom Ford Beauty Discussion

[pbpink]

I forgot...I have really been wanting that TF primer so I was very happy to read that you liked it.I've heard mixed things about it. I also want to get the brow enhance.

have you ever tried it? for me, it has a unique scent that I can not get past - am I the only one? Bobbi Brown has a nice one out brand new, tester there so I tried but none to buy in store yet, I haven't read ingredients as I am picky but if it passes that test I'm def getting hers.... I can't recall if you are near a counter but I'm happy to have a SA send you samples if you need! xx let me know!!

The top left cream shadow looks like Pink Haze and the bottom right looks like it could be the Spring 2015 shade? I already have those two so I'll be a bit annoyed if they're re-promoted as a set with a powder shadow. I'd love to have all those powder shadows but the cream shadows have so much product I can't justify back-ups.

Getting real excited about that palette though.

Ha, I suspect they're about the same size. For me, if there's a TF shade that works, it would be cheaper than the Guerlain 4 Seasons bronzer I'm currently rocking!

I love fun makeup, and it's really Friday-Sunday that I get to play. I have so many uptight meetings Monday-Thursday at work as of late that I've fallen into a very simple, subdued office look. Friday is far more casual, hence the Jade eyes.

I may try to work the Plum duo into my makeup routine next week though- I just need to figure out the right lip tones to actually accent it without going OTT in the office.

I'd love to hear what you come up with.

edit: need summer fling just thought I'd mention it! hehe!

​I'm trying mine for the first time this weekend. I prefer brushes to fingers, so I'll let you know how it goes. I'm hoping the cream blush looks nothing like the colors that
I already have in Chanel cream blushes. I'd love to try a TF cream blush though because he does such an amazing job with his powder blushes.

I have a reaction to the TF primer, my face turns bright red. I also do not care for the lack of a better word the glistening it gives off. To me, TF either is incredible good or incredible bad. Did anyone watch the fashion show last night from LA???? Very natural look and nude lips on the models. Love the skirts that have the blue jeans top portion and the rest a lovely velvet. Also the length of the dresses, about 2 inches below the knees.

  [COLOR=0000FF] Not my thing either AWS.  If I had something like that I'm sure the lippie would get knocked off somehow in spite of the way it's constructed or my own efforts.:haha: [/COLOR]

lol!

I use a Trish McEvoy brush to apply. It has short bristles, a flat tight head. I think it is a eyeliner brush. Then a tiny little dip in the pot and apply. I use my finger to spread it out. I have Summer Fling, and love it. I got 6 of the 8 lipsticks from Summer 2014 collection.

The primer works best with dry skin, imo. The counters should have TF-worthy-packaged samples for you (mini-pump dispensers and all). I think whether it works for you depends on both your skin and the climate. Most TF artists that I've spoken with agree that it's not for all skin types. If you are placing a TF order, I've found that Raymond at Neiman's in SF is very generous in accommodating requests for samples for phone orders. He can also pull from other lines and put together an order for you, and email you updates with new TF things that arrive on the floor.

When I lived in Northern California, and in the summer, I think the TF primer was too rich. My skin is combo, and does pretty well in temperate climates. Now that I am in an East Coast winter, it was just what my skin needed. Windburn, indoor heat, it doesn't take long for it to show now that I'm no longer a teenager (cough cough). So I think that there is wisdom in the mixed reviews--it's not for everybody all the time. I think a "safer" primer with similar qualities is Burberry, meaning it will work for a wider range of skin types and climates. I'm on my second Burberry, it's really lovely and if anyone is shopping for primers definitely sample if you can.

By the way, WOW I am loving that Chanel micro-serum. Definitely getting the full size on that.

Oh I saw those this morning and got so excited! Someone commented there's a cream shadow on the bottom level. Amazing.

Yes, you can see them in one of the pictures posted here yesterday. I'm really excited about them and the palette!

The primer works well for some. I would use it except the smell bugs me. I would recommend smelling it before buying. The smell doesn't bother some people.

I can't handle the smell of the primer either.

Aww man. What is your skintone? I was worried that these would be too light for me as well. Ah well... more money for lippies

Hi ladies.
I hope some of you can help me with a simple question.
Im about to get the bronzer and the blush brush from TF. But what got me thinking is the TF brush hairs cut or not to get its shape?
I really love the softness of hakuhoho brushes since they are not cut only shaped before making the brush if that makes sense.
Figured i'd ask here first cause im not sure the SA will know.
