But then I saw this palette and decided I really really wanted it. Soft as butter eyeshadows, gorgeous colours, turquoise is one of my favourites, so what's not to like? Erm, it costs £62. Gulp. I thought about getting it in Harrods on their 10% off day, but still, £56. As luck would have it though, I saw it on eBay and after missing out on one auction I managed to get this for £36. Score!
Is it worth £62? I honestly couldn't say that it is. The eyeshadows are lovely, very soft and buttery, they last pretty well and the colours are gorgeous. But they are not in any way unique and while the quality of the shadows is great, I'm sure I have some Accessorize eyeshadows that are very similar and cost something like £6. Obviously you are paying for the brand as much as anything, and it does look and feel very luxurious, but I cannot recommend, hand on heart, that you absolutely must go and buy this for £62. It was a good buy for £36 though and I'm happy I got it.You get 6 g for your money which is okay, but not that much (eg. Guerlain quads are 7.2 g and cost £37).
Do you own and Tom Ford products? Anything you would recommend? Would you spend £62 on a palette? Let me know what you think in the comments!

ReplyDeleteDe jók a képek Rólad :)
Gyönyörű vagy és a termék sem rossz :)
Köszi szépen, nagyon kedves vagy! :)
DeleteFrom all the reviews I've seen of Tom Ford, nothing is making me willingly go and pay that much for one make up item.
ReplyDeleteThis looks lovely on you - however, some time back I got Cognac Sable, and found really big problems with fall-out - though I often get fall-out where others don't!!
ReplyDeleteI would accept Tom Ford as a present hehe but personally won't pay this money.. I'd rather stick with Guerlain or NARS :)
