Hope your all well and enjoying the apparent 'Indian Summer'. Todays post is about the new Tom Ford makeup range which i have been working on in Harrods since it launched a few weeks ago. It is limited only to London and will launch in New York in December. The makeup range is really fabulous and has some amazing colours and textures. The only downfall is that it is pretty expensive, so may be something to save up for as a treat :-) I have split this blog into 2 parts as there is too much to discuss!
Firstly Tom Ford has released 2 new fragrances to compliment the makeup launch. My favourite is the Jazmine Rouge. Its a delicate blend of Jazmine and Roses and smells really fresh and lovely. The other new fragrance is Santal Blush. This isnt really my cup of tea but it has been very popular in store. Its more of a spicy and sophisticated fragrance i think. They retail at £120 for 50ml and £270 for a 250ml which comes with a dicanter.

Lipsticks and Glosses
You may be aware that Tom Ford already had a range of lipsticks before he launched his full range of beauty products. He has only kept 5 of his original lip colours in his new range and has launched another 12 brand new colours. All of the colours are powerful and very long lasting. i literally have to attack my lips with makeup remover to get it off after a shift at work. The lipstick retail at £36 and here are two of my favourite colours...

| Pink Dust. |

| Peach go Cherry-Looks lovely on its own or with a colour underneath. |

| Looks really lovely over the lip colour Wild Ginger. |
There are only two forms of foundation that have been launched for Tom Ford, one a liquid and one a stick. The foundation liquid-Traceless Foundation-is a 3 in 1 foundation which is really light weight, but still gives great coverage. It has an spf 15 and complex ingredients which really help to protect your skin. It is suitable for all skin types and leaves skin looking smooth and luminous. The Traceless foundation retails at £60.

The traceless foundation stick is a great foundation but i find can also be used as a concealer. It is nourishing for your skin and ideal if you are somebody how doesnt want to have a full coverage. It retails at £60 also.

The final product im going to show you tonight is the Shade and Illuminate set. The purpose in shading and illuminating is to contour your face and give it a structure. You can give the illusion of cheek bones a slimmer face and a smaller nose. It comes in 2 intensitys and retails at £55.

thanks for the post! im really excited to try this but it isnt available where i live yet! i am thinking of ordering direct from harrods. i would like to try the traceless liquid foundation but have no idea where to start with coloring...maybe you might be able to help me please? i am a shade 3 in the bobbi brown skin foundation and a MAC match master shade 2.0. i also use nars sheer glow and i am barcelona. any help is greatly appreciated!
ReplyDeleteoh and i am also of an asian skin tone...a light to medium sort of complexion, more towards the medium these days!
ReplyDeleteHey thanks for your comment :-) I have compared the Bobbi brown foundation swatch to the Tom Ford ones and I would say your colour is number 2 which is called pale dune. It's a similar shade to the Bobbi colour so if you wanted something a little more medium then go for number 3 which is slightly darker.
ReplyDeleteJust to double check was your Bobbi brown definitely colour 3?
Let me know
