Tom Ford Soleil Eye And Cheek Palette

Again I am a huge fan of anything Tom Ford and when I tried this eyeshadow palette is when I officially fell in love with TF Beauty. The colors are so bright and last all day. The highlighter is dazzling. And last but not least the packaging is so eligent! If you want to spend a little more money for something that's, 1. Going to last a long time, 2 is absolutely stunning and 3 makes you feel bougie lol then definently try this palette put! Treat yourselves ladies and gentlemen! We deserve it!

This is top tier status everyone! Just look at it. This palette is so gorgeous not only inside but the packaging is like an adorable gold and white clutch, it’s so chic and fabulous just like the makeup looks you can do with this. The colors all work so well worn together for a harmonious and beautiful flattering warm toned look. I always get compliments when I wear this. I’m obsessed with it!

While this palette errs on the size of pricey, it essentially comes with 2 blushes and an eye quad. The shadows are of the samily quality as the permanent shadows. 2 of 4 shadows are glittery shades that apply a bit sheer and are most suited to be used as toppers. The 2 non glittery shades are super pigmented, buttery, blend like a dream, and the fall out is minimal. They can easily be used to transform a look from day to night. The blushes on the other hand are slightly less pigmented than the permanent collection blushes; however, in my opinion, this is a good thing. I find the permament collection blushes to require a bit of skill because they require a light hand otherwise you run into the risk of going clown. These blushes can be built up to suit your needs. ... MoreWhile this palette errs on the size of pricey, it essentially comes with 2 blushes and an eye quad.

This palette would be great for travel. The shadows are fairly neutral and can be easily used to create multiple looks. The palette itself comes in a nice classy and luxurious white case, and has a bit of weight to it.

5 STARS FOR BOTH PALETTES

I have the Warm & Cool Palettes and love them both equally. The Warm Palette is best suited for my skin tone - NC20. The shadows for both palettes are pigmented, smooth and blend beautifully. What excel in these palettes, surprisingly, are not the shadows but the blush & highlighter.The blush in the Warm Palette is an exquisite coral/peachy pink. Absolutely gorgeous, very much like its sister, Pink Sand, in cream form. The highlighter has a soft golden sheen, not blindingly bright like Becca, but a very classy golden glow. The blush in the Cool Palette is truly exquisite. It's a medium pink that is neither too cold nor warm. The color is a soft petal-pink, very lovely. The highlighter looks ethereal and has the lightest pink in it which goes perfectly with the ... MoreI have the Warm & Cool Palettes and love them both equally.

I think they are the best TF palettes in 2016!

Beautiful But Misleading

I’ve loved the previous iterations of these TF Soleil compacts and I think there are things to love about this one, too. However, I do find the overall colour combination to be odd, as the purple seems out of sync with the rest of the palette.The blush and highlight are stunning; they are neutral and natural enough to provide an effortless glow to the face.3 of the 4 shadows are decent; 2 are what I would consider TF quality but at these prices you’re probably expecting more than decent. The pale pink is lovely, but a bit powdery and clumpy. The deep pink and brown wear beautifully, and the pink reminds me of the old Pink Glow palette. The violet shade is underwhelming. It swatches gorgeously but would require a glitter glue to be anywhere near that opacity on ... MoreI’ve loved the previous iterations of these TF Soleil compacts and I think there are things to love about this one, too.

It swatches gorgeously but would require a glitter glue to be anywhere near that opacity on the eyelids. I wonder if that is intentional though, as a super bright opaque violet in an otherwise neutral palette seems a bit of a departure for Tom Ford. My biggest disappointment with the violet is that it appeared to be one of the TF celestial shades in the promo photos but it is not. Perhaps this is one of the new formulas from the upcoming single shadows, because it does not work in the same manner as the celestial shadow toppers.Overall, if you can purchase it during the sale I’d say it’s a workable palette. However, I would not recommend it at the extortionate prices TF charges for full price.

Beautiful highlighter and blush (Warm palette)

I splurged on this on impulse and I'm actually really happy I did. This is perfect for travel. The highlighter is a great coral/pink that gives a warm glow. It is perfectly complimented by the highlighter which is not too "flashy", not too bright but brings out an inner glow. I know a ton of products CLAIM to do this, but this actually does.When I wear the combo with just a bit of mascara and under eye coverup ( a must for me).. I get compliments that I look fabulous, well rested, glowing, healthy, radiant, beautiful etc. Total time to achieve that look: 4 mins.Eye shadows I need to play with more. I think they are ok and good in a pinch for travel- they compliment the overall "glow look" of the Warm palette (which is what I'm reviewing). I just am so obsessed ... MoreI splurged on this on impulse and I'm actually really happy I did. This is perfect for travel. The highlighter is a great coral/pink that gives a warm glow.

I just am so obsessed with brands that have great pigmentation for their eyeshadows such as Dior and Sisley that it's hard for any brand to compete honestly. I found that out of the palette the shadows tended to "dust" out of their designated areas and although they looked pretty on, it's again, not a go to, but ok colors. For travel, make sure to back a neutral.

Big Disappointment for a Tom Ford Fan

I'm a huge Tom Ford fan, and own several items from the Tom Ford beauty collection. I purchased this item in the Tom Ford store in Las Vegas, and what a disappointment it is.I'm very, very fair skinned but the blush hardly shows up on me.The highlight emphasizes texture.I could get past those two, but the eyeshadows are nearly useless. Yes, they swatch well. But once on the eye, the colors don't pop at all, they look muddy, plain, translucent, and are difficult to work with. I'm so disappointed at the $155 loss and my perception of the brand as a whole. This is an expensive paperweight that I know I just won't use - why would I, when I have other palettes that have gorgeous pigmentation and ease of application?I've always wanted to try the Tom Ford quads, ... MoreI'm a huge Tom Ford fan, and own several items from the Tom Ford beauty collection.

Perfect for travel, perfect for quick mornings

I wrote a review previously but after playing around with this and traveling I needed to amend it. First, this is a perfect go to for travel- just pack a mascara, concealer, lip stick and you're good.As I wrote previously, I can achieve a "total look" with this in 4 minutes flat. It's so easy. The blush is a pink/coral that blends easily- the color is incredibly flattering on my neutral, fair skin. The highlighter does the trick in a very subtle way- it does have a bit of a yellow tone to it, but it adds warmth and depth rather than "color" to the the highlighting. The eyeshadows I had originally given a negative review on, as I'm partial to very creamy eyeshadows from Dior. I played around some more with these and was able to achieve a beautiful "nude" (no makeup ... MoreI wrote a review previously but after playing around with this and traveling I needed to amend it.

I played around some more with these and was able to achieve a beautiful "nude" (no makeup look) with the peachy color in the upper left quadrant and then also a daytime depth look, a night time smoky eye and even some glitter for fun. The colors are blendable and although at first there was a some rubbing off in the tin- it stopped after a few uses.The packaging is secure and solid and beautiful. A must have for travel, for running late to work and for siting on your vanity if you don't have time in the morning.

Pretty Palette by Tom Ford

I bought this palette unknowingly in the cool palette rather than the warm color palette mainly I think due to a mix up at the time of sales. Whatever the circumstances once home I decided to keep this and try it out rather than exchange it. I'm glad I did. The colors are flattering and lighter than you might expect so layering helps to deepen the eye color shades. The pink eye shade is shimmery and a pale sandy pink. The lavender color goes on silvery sheer and deepens with layering. The blush I found was a little too bright when using just the deep pink shade but layering it with the shimmery light beige blush created a perfectly natural flushed look. The darker eye shadows in dark gray and almost a raisin color work well for lining the eyes and wearing at night ... MoreI bought this palette unknowingly in the cool palette rather than the warm color palette mainly I think due to a mix up at the time of sales.

All in all it's a versatile palette that's both natural by day and can be dramatic by night. If you think of it this way it justifies the cost.

Warm Palette - Spectacular

I can't speak for the cool palette, but the warm is absolutely gorgeous. I own multiple TF eyeshadow palettes and the quality is on par with the rest of the quads. The colors are beautiful, soft and buttery, and the pigmentation is great. The glitter shade is meant to be a glitter or topper I'm not sure why it's receiving negative reviews. They're the same quality as the other TF glitter shades, which are just as beautiful - they give the eye a wet look from afar.The blush is very pigmented so your money will go a long way with the blush and highlight. They are both not creamy, not much powder kickback if any at all. The highlight is not shimmery whatsoever, it gives a glow from within look without being streaky or glittery and glides on the skin without ... MoreI can't speak for the cool palette, but the warm is absolutely gorgeous.

I would highly recommend if you're looking for a "do-it-all" palette that you can easily travel with or use on a day to day basis.
