The shade range isn’t as comprehensive as the foundations and they don’t have my usual shades Natural 6 or Sable 6.5. Last is a quick look at the Soleil Glow Tinted Moisturizer with SPF 15. Lip color is Tom Ford Lipstick in Spanish Pink with Gloss Luxe in Impulse on top. The highlighter is a beautiful soft peachy shade with a hint of champagne and the contour is a cool medium brown. The eyeshadows include a shimmery pale cool moonlight, shimmery warm copper/orange, shimmering red/pink and a softwash metallic plum. Intensity 1/Red Harness surprised me – it’s warm but very wearable! There is more contrast with the eyeshadows in this palette for a more complete look. Normally I would add a blush for more color but I wanted to show just the palette on my medium/tan skin. Cropped Ribbed Tank – Lovers + Friends Revolve.Lip Color – Sisley Phyto Lip Twist in Shade 3 with Tom Ford Gloss in Ravish on top (review here).Eyeliner – NARS Coconut Grove Eyeshadow and Tom Ford Liquid Eyeliner.Eyes/Cheeks – Tom Ford Shade and Illuminate Face and Eye Palette in Rose Cashmere.Powder – MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural in Medium Golden.Foundation – Tom Ford Glow Tinted Moisturizer in Dune 5.7. I think the colors make for a beautiful soft wash of color and glow but there aren’t enough shades for a complete eye look – you will still need to add a deeper color for liner or contouring. The four eyeshadows are like my dream palette with a pale metallic ivory champagne, satiny rose peach, a shimmery mauve tan and a shimmery deeper light tan/taupe. On my skin the highlighter looks yellow and the tan powder is just slightly darker than my skin tone. The highlighter is a pale yellow shimmer with a soft sheen and the contour powder is a soft tan satin. Intensity 0.5/Rose Cashmere is the lightest color palette option and also the most neutral. Lasting power is really good as the powders adhere well to the skin. Quality wise these are excellent – the texture is smooth, color is easy to build, pigment is medium. Contour and highlighter powders are softer similar to the texture of the Sheer Cheek Duos (current one Lissome reviewed here) and not as intense/frosty as the Skin Illuminating Duos (all 3 swatched here in case you’re curious). The eye colors are all shimmery and have a similar soft metallic pressed texture to the eyeshadow quads like Nude Dip and Honeymoon. Each palette has 4 eyeshadows, 1 highlighter and 1 contour powder. At $155 each they are crazy jaw dropping expensive. Tom Ford Shade and Illuminate Face Eye Palettes come in four shade options. I’ve also been testing out the Soleil Glow Tinted Moisturizer in Dune 5.7 and will have a more detailed look soon, but wanted to give you a quick preview here. I wanted to get up some quick swatches and thoughts for those who have been curious about them. I just received my order in the mail so I have a first impressions review. If you’ve had these on your radar and don’t see the color you want, check back online. Quick note that I’ve seen some color options sell out and restock online a few times. They finally popped up online at Nordstrom last week and I ordered two of them in Intensity 0.5 Rose Cashmere and Intensity 1 Red Harness. I finally got my hands on two of the Tom Ford Shade and Illuminate Face Eye Palettes – they’ve been nearly impossible to find as they sold out quickly earlier in the year.
