Has Nude Dip popped up on any websites yet? I keep checking Nordstrom, since they ship here, but has it popped up anywhere else where I should be checking?
I follow @beautifullyinv on instagram (of "Full Time Ford" website) and she says it was scheduled for release in mid-August but has been pushed up so...any day now!

LOL EXACTLY! I don't even want to tell you how many times I've refreshed the Tom Ford section of every department store's website.

Also, if you're on instagram, @beautifullyinv is doing a giveaway of Nude Dip. I think it's still open - I don't see an entry deadline. Winner chosen Aug 31. http://instagram.com/p/rHpkLMSY6s/?modal=true

touch eclat works for you even though you are so oily?
@Monsy Yeah it gets way too oily but i looks so good i put up with it, i usually have to powder every hour but i'd rather have a nice looking foundation that needs to be powdered than a dull looking one that doesn't :).

I Picked up the new Traceless Perfecting Foundation Yesterday and Filmed a review on Youtube when i got Home ! I love it, its creamy and not too watery, blends in well and looks like skin even though i built up the coverage a lot. definitely my favourite foundation along with luminous silk by Armani and Touche Eclat by YSL. i will link my review for reference so you can check it out if you want, i will also attach a before and after of the Traceless Perfecting Foundation, not my best angle but you can see the coverage :).

Ok, thanks! It really looks great on you. I think I still need cream
I used Fawn (old foundation) only today, and the color was not completely right. Since Fawn in the new foundation is supposed to be the same shade as the old, that solidified my decision to get Cream.


NM is having a promo right now where you get a deluxe sample of the TF primer with a minimum TF purchase. I know that you were interested in trying it.

I'm sort of bummed that both of the contour cheek duo's are so warm/orangey.

Yea I wasn't expecting that from the blushes.

Okay update on the foundation, after using up my sample I still like it but I no longer love it. I do like that it last longer than the YSL but I love the finish of the YSL better because it gives me a glow. I don't get that glow with this foundation but to be fair the other traceless foundation gives a glow however there isn't a shade match for me in that line. So I'll be sticking to YSL Touche and I honestly don't want to spend $80 for foundation anyway.

Now I'm just waiting for the release of Nude Dip.

I also wish they both weren't so warm. I was really hoping for a plummy color. :(

I did get my samples of the new foundations few days ago. Was sent #9,#11 and #12. Surprisingly #11 was much lighter than #9 and #12. It was hard to see a lot of difference between #9 and #12 IMO. I swatched them with a few of my other foundations (except #11) and they were lighter and more yellow based compared to the ones I had which was more red based. It would be ideal if the shade 13 existed. The finish is really amazing. Its very smooth, nice and gives a "clean" natural fab look. I used Studio Fix Powder NW50 lightly on my face after TF foundation. I wasnt oily which i normally am so that was a big plus. It could actually work tweaking a darker powder however the OCD in me would not be contended. For $80 an ounce I really would like it to blend perfectly and effortlessly with my complexion. I had also received 2 sample concealers but the labels were removed in transit. There was a dark shade and a deep shade, one in #5 and the other #6. The darker of the two worked for me however I don't use really use concealers so it may not be a good investment. I have concealers from Mac and make up forever that I haven't used in ages. Used to play with my brows with concealers that's about it. I am still interested in buying both blushes however extremely indecisive about getting the ND quad. It looks so different in some lighting. If IRL it is light and pale I will def skip. The few Chanel quads I bought recently may be possible substitutes as well as serve as reality not to overspend and skip ND.

Me too. I can't do orange blush, I wish they were more peach or plum!

I just did & she lists Cream for NW15 range. What do you think & what shade are you looking at?
Just an update. I cancelled my online order and decided to head to my local TF counter at NM to get color matched. Honestly I am not a fan of shopping in that store b/c the SA's circle around customers like a pack of wolves, but for this much money I wanted to get the right shade. I was matched with Buff which is the lightest shade in this foundation. I suppose that I am even paler than I thought. They did also try Cream, which would work but was not the ideal color. The concealer pen I was matched for was light obviously.

I was told that the fall collection should arrive in store within the next two weeks.

DH did remark that the area where the new TF foundation had been applied looked smoother and even tone.
He could tell where it was applied and said that it looked great. He never notices anything wrt makeup, nails, etc so I was shocked.

Aww, so sweet that he noticed!

Ok, so you really love the Buff. How did Buff compare to Cream color wise? Just lighter? Do you think you're going to LOVE the concealer pen? Aggh, I hate not being able to swatch in person.

Buff looks so much darker/yellow in the Nordies online swatches....not that that really means anything
