OMG

I can’t believe this foundation! It’s like a filter for the face. I hate taking pictures of myself. I avoid looking in mirrors. My skin has never been the best. I can’t stop looking at my skin. It is the most beautiful foundation I’ve ever bought.

Love it

I’m obsessed! I got this from Influenster and have already ordered another bottle. It’s amazing. A perfect match

I really liked this foundation! It provides medium coverage with a matte finish. I love how light it feels on my skin and the added SPF is always a bonus. It has more of a liquid consistency than a paste which is great because a little goes a long way. I also love the scent, most foundations don't smell nice, but this one definitely does! I would definitely recommend this product to combination skin types. It provides a fresh look that lasts all day!

I was so hopeful for this, as I typically love Tom Ford products, especially the foundations. It applies beautifully and blends easily, the coverage is a solid medium and can be built up to nearly full, the finish is beautifully luminous without being shiny or greasy...it is more a pearly gossamer-like effect. Be aware if you’re sensitive to fragrance or lavender, this one does strongly smell of lavender but it fades after a few minutes. Unfortunately, despite the luminous finish, this foundation makes my skin feel very dry and tight after an hour or so, and my pores become very visible. Because of the dryness, my fine lines become very apparent as well, which is the opposite of what I hoped for with this formula. My skin is mature and typically in the normal-to-dry range, but sadly even after trying various primers and amping up my skincare, something in this formula still dries me out badly. I wear shade 3.5 Ivory Rose in this one, but I’m typically in the 1.5-2.0 range of TF foundations. I will say, the wear time is fabulous and it stays on even through a trip to the gym! I hate that it doesn’t work with my skin chemistry, because otherwise, it’s a beautiful foundation!
