I'm Currently Obsessed...

...with my first ever foray into Tom Ford beauty. This is the Skin Illuminator in Fire Lust. It's the most beautiful rose gold liquid shimmer that is uber-subtle, yet totally gorgeous. It's definitely more of an 'Illuminator' than a highlighter, so suitable for those of you who like it subtle, rather than bling-bling, shimmer-shimmer.

I like...

mixing this with my foundation to create a lovely glow-heavy finish. It will definitely be a summer staple for me this year (if we ever get a summer that is!)


Overpriced? Definitely.
Unnecessary? Probably.
In Love? Immediately.

You can pick this up in Selfridges and online now. It's part of the summer 2013 collection and priced at an eye-watering £46.

  8. Love the shimmer and can imagine it would be lovely on a summers day, but I really don't think I could bring myself to buy it, I might have considered it if we were having a nice summer :P does look lovely though :) x

  20. I think it's perfect! It's pink and bronze at the same time and mostly, if they're in any way bronzy they are more orange toned. Unique :)

  23. This looks beautiful! I've never owned a Tom Ford product. It's one of those things that always makes it into my online basket only for me to chicken out and decide it's too expensive at the last minute! I'll get there one day though, I'm sure! xx

    ReplyDelete
  24. That is really, really pretty! One question, though: does mixing it in with your foundation make you look overly shimmery, or do you only add it to certain areas of your face?

  43. Well that looks absolutely stunning on your hand. I would love to see how it turns out in a makeup look though, because it does make for a very shiny look. Perhaps too shiny?

  55. I'm so tempted to get one of these strobe-liquid type items. Would you be able to wear it in a video, just to show us how it looks mixed with foundation? I'm afraid of the disco-ball effect, but definitely wouldn't mind a slight glow.

    ReplyDelete
  56. God now i want to get it :p

  86. Hey Dear!
    Sorry for my interruption, but I have a question, and I don’t know, where I can ask somebody.
    I want to get to know some people from London in my age (about 27). Do you have an idea, where I can find some?
    I am from Austria and I love London/ England soooo much.
