It was short, sweet and to-the-point.
I arrived at Neiman 30 minutes after it was opened then headed straight to eh Tom Ford counter. Don't wonder why. You know why. I've wanted his Illuminating Primer and Traceless Foundation Stick since last year. Both came home with me :D and reviews are on their way.
Of course, I couldn't miss playing with all of Tom Ford new lip color shines that are released for Spring 2013 and now become part of the permanent line. The quality is superb, moisturizing, pigmented for such sheer and shine formula and all the colors are lovely. You have many options to choose from nude to soft coral, pinks to bright, bold pink orange to bright orange red. While I ADORE the texture, I'm not feeling any colors, or maybe the summer collection promo picture promises more. Skipped them for now.
Neiman gave me the tote (I pick orange!) and samples. Tom Ford counter offers beauty samples and a deluxe sample of Illuminating Primer (with a pump! Isn't it handy?) if you purchase the full-size primer itself.
Then, I swung by Le Metier de Beaute. Their SA wasn't there at the time. Odd eh? Someone at Trish McIvoy matched Classic Flawless foundation for me. She did an apt job in matching foundation. I'll test the sample in the next week and report soon.
That was it.
Have you picked up anything during this event? Did you discovered any extraordinaries?

So many goodies!!! I got 2 Lip Color Shines and TF eyebrow pencil, which I am totally in love with! Lovely post :) XO
ReplyDeleteThank you nerdy!! I'm swooning over your swatches of TF lip color shines. Don't you just love the eyebrow pencil? I got Espresso a few months back and love it so freaking much. xx
DeleteI absolutely love the eyebrow pencil. It looks so natural and it stays! Oh! I am also in love with Black Orchid. :) X
ReplyDeleteOh Black Orchid is my supreme sexy lips or at least I love to think so. haha. Love everything about it, texture, color, wearing, style.
DeleteAye!!! Too many GWP opportunities!!! LOL!! No I didn't participate in this one because I did Barneys and just did the one for Lola's subscribers. That tote looks really cute though! I seriously can't wait to see what you think of the TF foundation stick...if you love it I think that'll be my next foundation splurge!!
ReplyDeleteI knoowww!!! Staying on budget seems like a mission impossible. I was able to resist Barneys. Now Lolo's is killing me aahhh. That tote can contain my upper body. I think I'll use it for grocery shop only. LOL!!
DeleteTF foundation stick is really good, not the best texture I've tried but the other aspects are superb. Plus it doesn't oxidize on me and spot-on color match. Hopping to your blog right now.
Btw...I LOVE how you did the magazine in your first picture!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you noticed and you love it ;;) The glossy finish always creates troubles for photographing. The magazine meant to contrast the finish and color. I'm still experiencing...
DeleteOMG look at what you got! Lots of beautiful products, I spotted TF primer too! Would love to know more about what you think <3
ReplyDeleteI'm testing TF primer. It works wonderfully under my Clarins Ever Matte and TF foundation stick. Now testing it with dewy foundations. We'll see! Thank you xx
