Yes! The new retractable bronzer brush. I bought it and really like it. I think it may be synthetic but it is quite soft and dense. The language was not clear though. I'm wondering if they are just going to do all new brushes in synthetic and still keep the old ones around. Either way I need to start buying the ones I don't have. I really love the ones I have. I'm thinking the fluffy eyeshadow brush might be my next purchase.

Oh and I still haven't used the Paradiso eye and cheek products I bought. Maybe tomorrow.

the kabuki brush looks amazing! reminds me of the one chanel released a few years back.....tempted!

speaking of chanel, TF's paradiso blush reminds me of the cream blush chanel did in the summer of 2014, chamade? can't find it to swatch myself but it def does not have the beautiful sheen of paradiso as i believe the C ones were all matte and but i recall having to use a stippling brush with it (on NC 35/40) found this old post on sara's blog with some of the colors that look close: Chanel Le Blush Creme #67 Chamade & #69 Intonation from Notes du Printemps Collection for Spring 2014 | Color Me Loud

def grab the TF brushes (esp the fluffy eye, it's awesome!) before they start making synthetic ones (i assume synthetic costs less so perhaps it's a cost cutting move, ugh!) i bought the set when it released and the only ones i don't use often are the foundation and lip brushes...

how do you like the paradiso eye duo + cream blush? was tempted by the paradiso eye duo but i have both golden peach + the original pink haze! my all time fave eye cream color is still escapade! i may go for sun worship as i do love gold, i use my Guerlain sun in the city as shadow too, another highlighter stunner!

Yes. The Tom Ford brush reminded me of the Chanel one. I never did get around to getting the Chanel brush. At the time I thought it was so expensive and look at me getting the TF one now which is a whole lot more. Go figure. I think the tapered end in the TF brush is unique though. I forgot all about those Chanel creme blushes. I don't remember which ones I have but I'll take and see if any compare. I know I wanted the glittery exclusive one and again never got around to getting it. Funny, I was just thinking today I haven't really bought anything from Chanel except the newest highlighters and I've been pretty much ignoring my own Chanel collection lately.

I still haven't used the Paradiso Eye duo. So Bad. I have to work it in. So far it's been a Nars heavy week. I'll get to it though. Love the blush!
did anyone get the spring sculpt + illuminate cheek duo's? Sublimate and/or Scintillate? beautylookbook said they sheer out to nothing Tom Ford Beauty Spring 2017 - Shade and Illuminate Lips + Cheeks | The Beauty Look Book pass?
I think I only got one thing from the Spring Collection. Shocker. I guess the days of buying the whole TF collection are over. I only got one of the powder blushes. I did notice that the swatches didn't look like much from different bloggers but I didn't try for myself. I do plan to get the rest of the powder blushes at some point.

I tried the Paradiso eye duo today. I didn't like the way the cream went on initially. It may not play well with the eyeshadow primer I used. I keep forgetting which cream shadows don't do well with primer. It is a problem because I usually put on primer while I think about what colors I want to wear for the day. So it didn't look smooth on my lid and it was cooler and more icy than I thought. I added some browns to the crease, outer v and transition to warm it up a bit. I also pat on the glitter to help to even it out. I was in like not love. I have all the colors you mentioned plus the the pink trio from a few years ago. The one that came out with She Wolf trio. Anyhoo, I did get 2 compliments on the eyeshadow look today so . . .I will keep it but it isn't a must have for me.

Did you all see L'Oréal is collaborating with Balmain?
Have to find the L'Oréal thread lol
I still have a BU of my beloved Aishwarya Rai lipstick and I also had the Eva Longoria and Milla Jovovich shades. Curious to see what they will produce together.

I'm lost - what does this have to do with Tom Ford? Is he collaborating with them too?

I reckon they'll be about $45 each , I'm sure there will be some dud colours but hopefully some amazing unique ones too .
