I love the blendable and skin-like formula. The highlighter may look dark in the stick however, it offers a very beautiful sheer and fresh glow to all skin tones. The pigmentation was very impressive, much better than the classic formula which is much more sheer and glossy. The glossy finish is beautifully but not sticky, which makes it pleasant for long wear. Like I stated previously, I found these products to last beyond 8 hours of wear! The formula is not nearly as emollient as the original Shade and Illuminate formula, which makes it versatile for many skin types. I love the stick form because it is so easy to use, its quick, and great for travel and touch-ups! The shades are perfect for spring and summer and I find the lasting power to be excellent. I have been a long time fan of Tom Ford's cream formulations and this product is another superior cream product in the line. I swipe this on the high point of my face and blend with my fingers or with dense brush in a stippling motion. This highlighter provides a very glossy and glistening wet look. HIGHLIGHTER - The highlighter is a champagne-bronze shimmer that is on the sheer side but it is much more pigmented than the classic Shade and Illuminate formula. It is emollient but still has a great lasting power, lasting on my skin for 8+ hours without touch up! You can swipe or dot this product on and it is best blended with your fingers but a small duo-fiber stippling brush or a dense buffing brush also works well if you use a stippling motion to blend. It is very pigmented, more so than the classic Shade and Illuminate formula. You'd have to use your fingers or carry a brush with you and that just isn't practical, which is why I'm so excited to see them release this product in stick form! Additionally, The Glow Stick is a great deal because you get 10g for $55.00 whereas, the Shade and Illuminate Cheek Palette is 14g for $80!īLUSH - The blush shade is a coral-pink and on the skin, it leans quite peach. I also love my Shade and Illuminate Cheek products ( full review here) but they aren't very convenient being in a compact and they are difficult to use on the go. I have been using makeup in stick form a lot lately because it is so convenient and easy to get a quick and polished look! So I was happy to welcome another stick product into my collection. This cream stick duo is something Tom Ford has never brought out yet and being a huge fan of his cream formulas, I knew I had to have this one! This dual-ended product twists up a cream blush on one end and a cream highlighter on the other. The Tom Ford Shade and Illuminate Glow Stick in Sunstruck retails for $55.00 USD for 10g and is available at Neiman Marcus, Beautylish, and other retailers.
