The shades are excellent for sculpting, defining, and contouring but they aren’t fabulous for highlighting nor are they marketed or meant to highlight. I’m not an expert here but I think it’s safe to say this isn’t a good highlighting palette. As you can see it has six cream shades which you can conceal, correct, and contour with. I got the Light shade selection but it is available in Medium and Deep shade selections. On many levels, the NYX Conceal Correct Contour Palette is just as good as MAC’s version as the formulas are a lot alike however, I find NYX has a creamier, more emollient texture where as MAC’s formula is a little denser. You might notice that the NYX Conceal Correct Contour Palette looks a lot like MAC Studio Conceal and Correct Palette. ![]() Also available at Sephora, Saks Fifth Avenue, Neiman Marcus, Bloomingdale’s and all Tom Ford Beauty retailers.The NYX Conceal Correct Contour Palette ($11.99) is a new cream concealer slash contouring palette that launched for Spring 2015. You can find the Tom Ford Soleil Neige Collection out now. I didn’t pick any of the pieces up but wanted to put them on your radar. If shimmers or cool tone greys aren’t your thing, Tom Ford also launched a few pieces in their Private Garden Collection with two eyeshadow quads, two pink satin matte lip colors, and a clear rose lip oil. Everything is very wearable which surprised me since I usually don’t wear cool tones. Must haves? I don’t think I can say they are. Overall beautiful and exceptional in quality. I will say that I really like the smooth finish and texture (even if it is very glowy). If you’re not a fan of the really metallic highlight these may be too glowy for you. Also at this point I haven’t checked out any of the other holiday highlighters yet to compare.īelow with the gold Gran Paradis Highlighter just on top of the Tom Ford Gold Dust Bronzer (no blush added). Both are really beautiful – like take your breath away beautiful! I don’t know that I would call either must-haves though, especially at the steep price point. Gran Paradis is a soft pale gold champagne. Nail Polish – Olive and June Quick Dry in Sandy.Lips – Tarte Maracuja Juicy Lip Plump in Rosebud.Brow Pencil – Benefit Precisely My Brow Shade 2.5.Mascara – Tarte Tartelette Tubing Mascara.Eyeshadow – Tom Ford Eye Color Quad Lumiere D’Hiver.Highlighter – Tom Ford Soleil Neige Rose Irise.Bronzer – Tom Ford Bronzer in Gold Dust.Powder – Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Powder in Medium.Foundation – Tom Ford Traceless Foundation Stick in Natural 6.0.To my eye the color is very similar to the pink side in Peachlight Highlighter Duo. Rose Irise is an iridescent icy pink that flashes an opal like shimmer depending on how the light hits. They’re multi-dimensional highlighters with an ultra-smooth glow that almost gives the skin a wet look effect with how glassy they shimmer is. There are two shades of Soleil Neige Glow Highlighter this season ($90 each). I think the Natasha Denona Glam or I Need a Nude Palette are better options for price and color variety but with similar quality. ![]() That being said I do think these colors are ones we’ve seen before in a number of brands. Swatched below next to Nude Dip for reference. Top with the shimmers and you’ve got the perfect smokey eye. ![]() The best way to wear them is to apply the matte cream all over and then the darker matte on the lids. On the eyes and swatched on the arm the colors come to life, especially with the shimmers. In the pans these shadows looked like your standard grey, cream and brown. The mattes perform so well, I wish every Tom Ford matte eyeshadow had this level of creamy opaque blendable pigment.Īt first glance I was incredibly underwhelmed. The shimmers are very finely milled – the shimmer is almost glittery but there isn’t really that glitter texture as they feel more on the smooth side. The quality and pigment of this quad is just outright stunning. It has a creamy almost velvety pigmented pale cream matte, a complex sparkling taupe topper, a neutral silvery shimmer and a deep cool black-brown matte. The Soleil Neige Eye Color Quad in Lumiere D’Hiver ($90) is beautiful. The limited-edition packaging is available on pre-order at this time, although you can still find the colors in the standard gold/mahogany packaging. Today I have a look at the items for eyes and cheeks as it appears the lip glosses have not yet arrived in the US. The theme feels like a winter wonderland theme with cooler tones and metallics. Everything is cased in their limited-edition holiday white and silver color packaging. For the holiday season Tom Ford launched their Soleil Neige 2023 collection featuring a new eyeshadow quad, two highlighters and three repromoted lip glosses.
