Tom Ford 08 Flamingo & 07 Paradiso

I got some more Tom Ford goodies to share. Back in February was my birthday, I like to celebrate the whole month and spoil myself. I made the decision to spurge on two Tom For lippies. At $50 each these are definitely a spurge item.
 
I decided to get one from the spring collection and one from the permanent collection. The spring collection came in special white packaging. The spring lippies were lip sheers rather than their regular formula. The regular collection comes in the classic gold and brown packaging.


This is the most luxurious packaging in my collection.  



First from the spring 2014 collection I picked up Paradiso.  This is meant to be a lip color sheer but this color in particular has a nice amount of pigmentation. Also it has no shimmer, most of the other colors in this collection has shimmers. The shape of the bullet is also different than the ones from the permanent collection, maybe this shape is for the lip sheers. It has a flat top with squared edged.

 
 


The second one I got was Flamingo from the permanent line. This formula is the regular lip color formula. It's creamy and opaque, it goes on the lips very smoothly. This color is perfection for spring and summer. The bullet has a rounded off shape just like the other permanent lipsticks.

 
 

 These lippies are so beautiful I have to use the back side or the bullet so that I don't mess up the beautiful TF embossing.
I'm so glad picked these up. Not sure when or if I'll be picking up anymore but, these are highly recommended.

Tom Ford Cheek Color: 07 Narcissist

Let me start off by getting this out the way before I keep typing, "I don't pop molly, I rock Tom Ford"
Now that I've got that out of my system I can go on. If you follow me on Instagram, you will know I've recently added a few Tom Ford pieces to my collection. Two lipsticks (blog post soon), and a blush and brush that I received as gifts.
These products are so fancy seriously, I just love looking at them. I was lucky enough to receive this very elusive blush from TF called Narcissist. From what I can tell by searching for a link for this post this color is extremely hard to find. It's absolutely gorgeous and crazy pigmented.
 
 
 I mean come on, just look at that packaging. This color is completely matte, no hints of shimmer but still smooth with no chalkiness.
 
 
 
The pigmentation on this blush is crazy, this needs a very light handed application.
 
 
 
 
Tom Ford blushes retail for $56.00 at department stores and on Tomford.com but check your local counter for this color, because I could not find this color anywhere online.
If you are looking to splurge a little on an amazing blush for spring/summer I definitely recommend this color and TF blushes in general.

Rainbow Tag: Collab with Stephanie from The Best in Beauty

I'm back with a collab post, I've joined forced with Stephanie from The Best in Beauty. If you follow me on instagram you would know we've been preparing for the rainbow tag. I've been posting my picks for each color leading up to this blog post. 


Red
I love a red lip, the Revlon Matte Balm is amazing, if you want an affordable option go for this one. For a not so affordable option the Chanel Rouge Allure in #99 Pirate is great is an amazing blue red that looks great on all skin tones and it makes your teeth look white. For an option right in between the Stila stay all day liquid lipstick in the color Beso is a beautiful matte liquid lipstick that actually does last all day, I love this stuff. 

Orange
I'm not much for orange but I do have a new things in my collection. Both these shadows are mac and were limited collection the first was from the Hayley Williams collection and the other from the Surf Baby collection, the lipstick is a really pretty matte orange color also from the Hayley Williams collection called Sounds Like Noise. 

Yellow
Yellow was kind of a hard one for me to find things in my collection. I have the Phillip Lim for Target  bag and the Chanel polish in Mimosa, both were limited edition items.


Green
This Gosh quad, I received in my UK/US swap from my previous post, the colors are very pretty shimmery shades of green. Next is my Disney for Sephora collection for the Ariel. The Simple face wipes are by far my favorite ones, these I have small for eyes but the larger face ones are great too. What I love about them over other makeup remover wipes is that they don't sting my eyes. 

 Blue
First blue things I have is the Very Berry candle from Target, these candle are so nice and half the price of the Bath and Body Works ones. On the Bath and Body Works subject I am still loving this scent from the holiday line if you can get your hands on it you will LOVE it. Only one beauty product, the MUFE Sens'eyes makeup remover gets that waterproof liner and mascara off really nicely without irritating your eyes. Ladies, the man in your life needs to smell of Chanel, Bleu De Chanel is my favorite men's fragrance. If anyone is wondering the earrings are Givenchy and I got them form Macy's. 


Violet
I have two favorite plum color blushes, the first is Milani and the second is Plum Attraction from Chanel. Also from Chanel I have the Rouge Allure Velvet in #45 L'Adoree this color is from the Spring 2014 collection. I also have a YSL lipstick but the number as rubbed off.

Pink
The color of colors :) First is a fragrance I received for my birthday Chanel Chance Eau Tendre, this scent is so nice for spring. Again I have two blushes I love right now, Chanel blush in Emotion and the fancy pants new big boss blush in my collection, Tom Ford in Narcissist. I will have posts on both of these blushes coming up soon. For the lips I have MACs Candy yum yum and Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet in #40 La Sensuelle. The Chanel gloss in #168 was my first Chanel purchase so I'll always love it.

Silver
I had to add a couple bonus colors. A few of my favorite silver pieces, the silver bunny is a ring holder that I found at Bed Bath and Beyond. Of course my MK watch and a few jewelry pieces. I have two silver eye products, and eyeliner form starlooks and a creme shadow my Rimmel.


Black
Another bonus color. Some of my favorite brands come in gorgeous black packaging. I'm a sucker for packaging. Chanel of course, MAC, Nars and Givency. 

Thank you for sticking with me through this super long post. Don't forget to head over to Stephanie's blog and cheek out her rainbow favorites.
