Tom Ford Limited Edition "01 ENCHANTED" Eyeshadow Palette REVIEW


I'm excited to introduce to you my first Tom Ford eyeshadow palette. I have to say, getting a hold of Tom Ford beauty products is pretty hard. Most stores only sell their lipsticks, and I wanted more than to choose from online a palette that I would be spending quite some money on. I was able to go the Saks Fifth Avenue to check the products in person. The one I settled for was the 01 Enchanted palette, a quad of silver, pink, gray, and mauvey purple/brown. I'm not sure if each color has its own name, but I fail to know of it, and therefore only list it in their family of color.
It comes in Tom Ford's luxurious packaging. 




The colors are most gorgeous. I've always been one to avoid sparkles in eyeshadows, but the thing about these eyeshadows is that they give a "wet" look and I have to say, it is very flattering on the eyes. I thought that these colors were completely wearable yet flattering, achieving both natural and dramatic looks.



The picture above is one in a different lighting. On the skin, it again has a different effect. Strangely, the colors change into a very purple tone on my skin tone.

The eyeshadows are a bit sheerer than I thought, but it transfers completely and naturally onto the skin. They blend brilliantly and the colors within the quad are amazing used together. I use mostly the three colors besides the lightest one. I have the pink tone all over my eyelids, then apply the gray on the lower crease. Then I add the dark brown on the outer edges and blend them all together.





Pictures are better than words, and I thought showing you swatches would be a better description of the palette. I love it and every time I apply it, it's a session of luxury pampering!
