Butter inspired Makeup Look

 

Butter - Billboard’s No. 1 song as of the moment.

I have been listening to it ever since it was played on BTS Official Channel.  

For fun I recently got a package from Secondate Beauty and decided to create a BUTTER-inspired makeup using the Secondate Beauty Instapeach Eyeshadow Palette.  

So I ended up with this look! What do you think?

I also got some safety merch from KORMNL.  The face mask container is the bomb! I super love it and it comes with yellow-colored masks!  I mean the colors aren’t important more importantly, I am protected...but let’s face it the color does matter in brightening up my day!  

I also have a cute heart-shaped yellow alcohol container!  Been using it ever since I received this!

Tom Ford Shade and Illuminate Soft Radiance Foundation Cushion Compact Review

 

I have own a number of Tom Ford products for a few good reasons. 

They look great on my vanity table and they make my heart flutter every time I pick one up!  But when is a luxury makeup worth it?  Easy - when it does the job and beyond!

I recently tried Tom Ford’s Shade and Illuminate Soft Radiance Foundation Cushion Compact.  I have their Satin Matte Cushion Compact which works really well as I am almost at the verge of squeezing the cushion foam as I flip the foam back and forth so many times.  Who would’ve thought I would find another favorite from the brand?

Tom Ford says —

Shade and Illuminate Soft Radiance Cushion Compact merges three-dimensional radiance with nourishing, protecting skincare. Perfect for travel and touch up use, the medium to full coverage foundation features a blend of advanced elastomers and light-diffusing powders to create the perfect smooth surface to reflect soft light. The luxuriously breathable formula infused with Hyaluronic Acid and Noni fruit extract nourishes skin for a plump, dewy look and calm feel. SPF 45 helps to protect from the harmful effects of the sun. The complexion-perfecting formula that delivers three-dimensional radiance for naturally flawless skin.

“In order to highlight your individual beauty, the architecture of your face should be emphasized. We all instinctively respond to light and symmetry – these can be used to enhance your natural features and bring out your unique beauty.” – TOM FORD

I have zero expectation when I first held this product.  YES, it made my heart flutter like most beautifully packaged makeup, but I would think of this as a “twin” or sister to the Satin Matte.  The Satin Matte Cushion is already good enough, how can they outdo themselves?

FORTUNATELY, they did!  And it wasn’t more on the “outdo” part, more of giving options to Tom Ford lovers out there.  This product may be my cup of tea and may not be yours, but at least we have OPTIONS.

Tom Ford Traceless Perfecting Foundation SPF15 review

The first time I tried Tom Ford Traceless Touch Foundation Satin-Matte Cushion, I thought I'd stick to that forever!  It was one of the most seamless, natural-looking foundation I've tried to date!  So when I found myself face-to-face with their Traceless Perfecting Foundation, I was a bit hesitant in giving this a test run as I already set my mind and eyes on their cushion format.

A natural-finish, longwearing, humidity-resistant foundation that moisturizes and evens skin tone creating a flawless, supple and pore-less canvas.

The packaging itself is a JOY to use!  I love how I can tote this along during my staycations or travels without worrying about "spillage".  All you need to do is to twist the cap and the nozzle will pop up!  

Tom Ford Traceless Touch Foundation Satin-Matte Cushion Compact Review

THIS, was featured and mentioned on my #AMWIGstories so many times and even got into my January Favorites!  You'll understand why after reading the full review.

This multi-tasking skin-nourishing compact formula is resistant to water, sweat and humidity.  It controls oil and shine while giving skin a flood of moisture.  Long-wearing and color-true with buildable coverage from medium to full. 
Traceless Touch Foundation Satin-Matte Cushion Compact instantly minimized the look of fine lines and wrinkles.

This product comes with a brown suede pouch which I find no use in terms of putting back the compact on (that's just me), I prefer to use the pouch to house my jewelries when I go for staycation or travel.

Now let's talk about the compact itself.  A very simple plastic compact with gold detailing on the sides, I find this to be very luxurious to hold and look at.  It does look  heavy on photo but in reality, the compact is as light as regular compact foundation.
