Re: Tom Ford Updates

I sought out the original Platinum last year after hearing the differences in the formula and size. I'm sure you're not delusional! I'm wondering why make a glittery cream and sell it with a glittery powder?

Re: Tom Ford Updates

That's exactly what I thought!!! If the glitter shade was super ultra glittery and buildable, I'd understand...but it's not even as glittery as celestial shades, largely transparent, not really buildable even with glitter primer since glitter particles are rather small. I like it because it is easy (ier than platinum for me) to wear, just one swipe and ready to go, but Tom Ford largely failed on this one in terms of "releasing something new". @TraceyEB

Re: Tom Ford Updates

Super interesting comments, @Anonymous!! I actually prefer Charlotte Tilbury's cream eyeshadow formula as it can be built up and have a polished effect, but for whatever reason, she hasn't expanded that line.

Re: Tom Ford Updates

@TraceyEB Interesting. I've been interested in the shade Norma Jean ever since I watched her tutorials, but I wasn't sure if it won't look too metallic. Any thoughts?

 

I enjoy the relative sheerness of TF shadows (esp. Adonis) and how it makes my lids look dewy? glowy? shiny? without being metallic. 

Re: Tom Ford Updates

@AnonymousI find Jean has more of a sheen effect that can be built up to look metallic. If I wear the shade over primer, and apply it with my fingers, it shows up very subtly. The more layers applied, the more metallic it can look; it's also more metallic if you use a brush. If you apply it with your fingers, it can look sheer, but not dewy or glowy... sheeny. If I wear it on its own, I will build it up for a more metallic look. Often, though, I wear it over another shadow. Today, I applied the cream shadow in TF's Naked Bronze with my fingers but it looked a bit flat, so I swiped Jean over my eyelid and it brightened up the look. Once it dries down, it melded beautifully into a bronzy ombre and you wouldn't know that I'm wearing Jean at all. With other shades (or powders), it's more apparent. It's incredibly versatile and the CT cream shade I wear most often.

Re: Tom Ford Updates

@Anonymous Yikes lol that's too similar to need both.  I'm really hoping that my sun worship ends up being more gold and opaque unlike Sphinx where I found it to be more sheer and had the duochrome effect.  

 

I'm also still sat here wondering if Tom Ford is sending me an extra package which I didnt order/isnt actually mine... Guess I'll find out tomorrow.

Re: Tom Ford Updates

I actually kinda like sphinx, but I'm curious about Sun Worship!!! Would you please post a swatch when yours arrive? ❤️

 

Too similar, I agree. If I were to choose one, I'd like Young Adonis (slightly more cocoa-ish brown) but...yeah, no one NEEDS both. Too subtle difference. 

Re: Tom Ford Updates

Thanks Honeydewk. 

 

Perhaps it's the lighting - the only difference I can see is more glitter 😄  Guess it's a skip.

 

Is the glittery topper clear?

Anonymous Insider

Re: Tom Ford Updates

I think largely clear, but more importantly, not intense. The cream shade itself is also glittery, so I don't see the point unless it can be built up (I dont' think it can...)

 

I think the shade itself is bit more rosy (adonis). Subtle difference.

Re: Tom Ford Updates

Hi @Anonymous, do you think the cream shade can be built up to look like rosy brown on the eyes vs. the sheered out shade?

Anonymous Insider

Re: Tom Ford Updates

@TraceyEB I wore it today, and I personally don't think they can be built up to look like that. It'd be overwhelmingly silvery/glittery to look "rosy". The formula is thinner than Platinum imo. This cream shades somewhat reminds me of top right and bottom left shades in Nude Dip...but probably less pigmented and more glittery.

Re: Tom Ford Updates

That's really good to know, so it's a definite pass for me. (Interesting re: Nude Dip.)

Re: Tom Ford Updates

Here is my swatches of young adonis.They are both the cream eyeshadow part, left side is more intense, right side is the part i sheered it out.

Re: Tom Ford Updates

@Anonymous do you have the Platinum shade by chance, and if so, do you think it's the same?

Anonymous Insider

Re: Tom Ford Updates

I don't have the Platinum unfortunately. From what I see it's like a pinky rosy brown metallic shade, very pretty tho.

Re: Tom Ford Updates

My preorder will be delivered tomorrow 🙂 kinda confused though because the TF shipping confirmation email gives me one tracking number for both items, yet fedex notified me that I have two packages arriving from Tom Ford. Eh guess Ill find out whats going on once it gets here lol.

Re: Tom Ford Updates

I just preordered their young adonis. I couldnt' help it, they are expensive but oh my gosh look how gorgeous it is!!! I can't find swatch anywhere, but i know i have to get it!! Soooo gorgeous!!!

Anonymous Insider

Re: Tom Ford Updates

Me too, that's the only thing I've pre-ordered so far. I'm considering lip balms too if the formula is similar to dior lip glow....

Re: Tom Ford Updates

I already have savage, ravish, flush, and wicked in the old formula. Hoping to find love lust and frantic pink at my local CCO. 

Re: Tom Ford Updates

Might your CCO have Flush? Mine has Love Lust, Ravage and Wicked.
