Tom Ford Soleil Neige Highlighter & Blush Glow Stick Review

I hauled practically everything from the Tom Ford Beauty Soleil Neige drove for the flavour and take swatches for you today. In today'south post is a wait at each piece with swatches and three makeup looks at the stop of the mail service. There's quite a bit to encompass just with swatches and comparisons alone!

In testing everything I accept generally hits. Formula-wise everything performed every bit I expected. I did take some misses colour-wise which I'll note below. In add-on I see quite a lot of repeats/similarities to previous and existing colors and so if you already own a lot of Tom Ford dazzler products y'all might want to shop your stash. In today's mail:

• Soleil Eye Color Quad in Soleil Neige and Soleil D'Hiver ($88 each)
• Cream and Powder Eye Color Duos in Fleur Neige and Reflection ($65 each)

Soleil Neige Eyeshadow Quads

I bought two of the three Soleil Heart Color Quads in Soleil Neige (silvery smokey tones) and Soleil D'Hiver (neutral peachy shimmers). The formula for these quads is the same equally Nude Dip/Honeymoon/Body Heat where information technology's pressed metallic pigments with a smooth texture and rich shine.

Soleil Neige has the traditional pale ivory/grayness/gunmetal shades you'd find in a smokey center quad. While the colour combination isn't the near unique, I do think the paint and shimmer is quite phenomenal and hit for a good smokey eye. Information technology'south actually cute, simply if you ain other smokey quads I don't think it's a must-accept. Information technology has a pale white frost, a shimmery warm silvery, a deep blue with silver flecks and a deep smokey metallic grey-black with flecks of sparkle. Application is smooth, easy to layer and very shimmery.

Soleil D'Hiver fabricated my heart sing the second I saw it! It has all my kinds of colors with the prettiest mix of neutrals and shimmers. In the pan information technology looks significantly more than slap-up than it swatches on my skin. On my medium-tan complexion the colors pull more pink and neutral-cool than warm peach (as I had hoped). However I have no complaints at all though equally information technology's one of the most beautiful neutrals I've e'er swatched. It is very metallic and pigment is ultra rich with a dumbo brush or over a cream base. You lot tin get a more sheer upshot if you apply with a loose fluffy brush. Colors include a sparkling pinkish white, a shimmery metallic bully pink, a metallic rose mauve and a shimmery cool brown.

Swatch comparisons beneath to a few other Tom Ford quads including Double Indemnity, Titanium Smoke, Nude Dip and Suspicion. (Double Indemnity and Suspicion reviewed here.)

For a smokey eye quad I adopt Double Indemnity because it applies warmer on my skin. For the neutrals I thought Soleil D'Hiver would be like Suspicion but it pulls more like Nude Dip, just warmer.

Cream and Pulverization Duos

There are also two new Cream and Powder Duos which are both brand new colors and I love both. Fleur Neige has a sparkling platinum white top coat and a shimmery gray brown cream. Both shades perform like the other Cream + Powder Duos from Tom Ford. I ended up loving this a lot more than I anticipated, it gives the perfect fall absurd-toned silverish taupe eye with some sparkle merely it's non also cool-toned or blue-based similar some greys can be.

Reflection on the other hand is unlike from well-nigh of the other Cream/Powder Duos. About of the ones I've tried have a flossy medium-pigmented base and an almost clear top glaze that only has colored glitter flecks. The base of operations commonly doesn't accept a lot of color, and they're more than toppers. Reflection's foam base of operations is a beautiful sheer gilt colour that almost matches my peel tone. It applies on the sheer side and acts more than like a creamy base for the statuary powder. The top is a deep bronze powder with golden flecks and to me it'south more of a traditional eyeshadow rather than a true glitter acme coat.

Soleil Neige Complexion/Face

I was so excited for the Glow Drops this season (I missed out terminal year!). These are fluid gel liquid highlighters with a subtle sheen. Reflects Gold which is a pale shimmering champagne gilded and Glacial Rose a bronzey shimmery rose. The texture is fluid-similar with a dropper like to the NARS Orgasm Liquid Highlighter, but the Tom Ford ones aren't quite every bit watery – they're a trivial thicker with more density/substance so they don't drip downward the manus similar water.

The Glow Drops take an ultra fine polish shimmer. The pigment when blended out is sheer and gives the skin a very natural glow. They dry down to an almost powder-like texture and stay put all twenty-four hours long. On my skin they pull very sheer but the glow is visible in real life (not and so much in photos). I like that they really do dry downwardly and then they don't get besides dewy looking or greasy past mid-twenty-four hour period.

Swatches beneath of Reflects Gilt and Glacial Rose with comparisons to a few other liquid highlighters from Tom Ford. Everything blends out to a very sheer glowy finish. Pigment isn't rich or intense so if you demand a more noticeable glow I'd recommend you lot try something else like the Tom Ford Skin Illuminating Duos, NARS Highlighting Powders or Hourglass Vanish Flash Highlighting Sticks. (Note that the Shimmer Shots are discontinued.)

For cheeks are three new Glow Sticks this year. These are creamy twist upward sticks with one shimmer side and one not-shimmer side. These are very emollient and dewy – you can layer for more color only on my skin once they're blended I find the color sheer and subtle. While I don't discover them super greasy they don't dry out downward at all on my skin and for Florida conditions I remember they would be a no-become most of the twelvemonth. Information technology's finally started to absurd downwards a little but we've had some tropical storms which makes everything humid. The weather changes daily here and then some days information technology feels like autumn, other days it feels like a moisture sauna outside.

If you have super oily skin or can't do creams these will most likely be too emollient for you. I do call back every color selection is very easy to wear for a natural await. The shimmer is very fine without any texture (it's very smoothen!).

Soleil Neige has a pale gold shimmer and peach cream, Megeve has a medium pink cream and medium coppery pink shimmer, Couchervel has a deep plum dark-brown with a slight hint of shimmer and a shimmery lighter rosy copper brown. I institute that if I applied the Glow Drops first and permit it dry/set, it fabricated the Glow Sticks terminal longer if I then applied them on superlative.

Lasting ability is very expert as long as y'all don't touch your face! I swatched these with a heavy mitt then you can see the colour. Also included the original Glow Stick in Sunstruck (I retrieve it'south now discontinued though). You tin come across beneath at the bottom of this mail service how natural they expect once blended out on the face. Of course if you have lighter/fairer pare than me these volition bear witness up with more color. I'm yet fairly tan! For skintone reference I'm a match to Tom Ford Sable, MAC NC35, Armani Luminous Silk in half-dozen.5 or 7, Pat McGrath Foundation in 14 or fifteen.

Lip Balms

I decided to effort 3 of the iv Clutch-Sized Lip Balms this season. I have mixed feelings nigh these. I love the formula – texture is smooth, like shooting fish in a barrel to use and they feel hydrating without being thick. I don't dear the colors.

Apres Soleil is a nude beige which pulls as well stake on my complexion – worn alone it doesn't requite me the best look (almost deathly), merely if I use a pinkish liner beginning so top with the balm, it looks great!

Paradiso is a gorgeous bright semi-sheer coral pinkish-peach. This one is the all-time color for me just as much every bit I adore this one I can't assistance but feel similar information technology'southward a little ho-hum because they repeat Paradiso in different variations pretty much every year.

Baie D'Hiver is a plum brown which has pretty good coverage and pigment for a lotion. It'due south a straight purple plum without any pink or red tones. Royal lips aren't really my thing – my olive complexion doesn't become so well with purples. Formula-wise they feel slap-up. Lasting power is average for a balm, yous volition need to reapply more than a lipstick, but it's comfy so I don't mind.

3 looks wearing the post-obit:

• Foundation is Armani Luminous Silk Foundation in vii
• Pulverization is MAC Mineralize Natural in Medium Golden
• Brows are Anastasia Brow Wiz in Taupe
• 3 looks equally follows:
  • Summit look: Tom Ford Soleil D'Hiver Quad, Megeve Glow Stick (both sides) blended, Apres Soleil Balm
  • Heart await: Tom Ford Cream Powder Centre Duo in Reflection, Soleil Neige Glow Stick (both sides mixed), Paradiso Lotion
  • Bottom expect: Tom Ford Soleil Neige Quad, Courchevel Glow Stick (both sides), Baie D'Hiver Balm

My top favorites are both the Fleur Neige and Reflection Foam Pulverization Duos, Soleil D'Hiver eyeshadow quad and both of the Glow Drops. The cream blush sticks are beautiful but I prefer powder products for better lasting power.

If I could do this spendy haul all over over again I would have skipped all of the lip balms and glow sticks. They're prissy but non must-haves for me, especially since I unremarkably find cream cheek products too flossy for Florida weather condition. As cute every bit the smokey quad is I don't think it's a must-have for me, although I was actually curious about it and recollect performance and color-wise it'south really pretty!

A few notes on the other items in the drove that I did not haul: there is another eyeshadow quad Soleil Et Lune which looked so pretty in store, but it had simply 1 shade I was interested in (the keen one) and therefore wasn't worth it for me to try out. I passed on the sparkling white lotion as it didn't actually interest me. As a huge fan of the Soleil Blanc perfume I was eager to try the new Soleil Neige perfume and sprayed it on my wrists in store. It wasn't actually my cup of tea as I found it really powdery and it didn't mesh well with my body chemical science. I might try it once more next fourth dimension I'g in shop just to come across .

Yous tin detect the Tom Ford Soleil Neige collection out now. Some pieces have sold out already at certain stores so you might take to shop around. I bought everything from Sephora and Nordstrom. Also available at Neiman Marcus, Bloomingdale's, Saks Fifth Artery, Macy's and all other Tom Ford Dazzler counters.

Have you lot checked out anything yet? What did y'all think?
