Terra bronzer by Tom ford review

Written by Christine .Q

It is the end of summer. No more Summer Fridays, the Museum of Ice Cream in New York is gone, and no more bronzy glow. Well, wait. That last part wasn't true. It might be a little bit harder to get a nice natural tan going under your fall clothes, but you can definitely still get some bronze going via the magic of make-up! Let me share with you my favorite bronzer. I think I've written about Tom Ford a gazillion times already on meetPepperB.com. Let's finish off the series with one of my favorite projects from his line and one of my favorite products of all time: the Bronzer Powder in Terra. I use this baby year round because a) it's freaking gigantic and I will never run out b) it's amazing. It's the perfect shade, not too orange, with a slight gray undertone that blends beautifully. Not to mention, it's completely matte so you won't look like a dirty disco ball. I like to use this to contour and after powdering, a light dust all over to give some color. 

How much do I love it? It was by my side on my wedding.

Tom Ford Traceless Foundation Review

By: Christine .Q

I've always been in love with Tom Ford, the man. There's something about him that oozes extreme sex appeal and his aesthetic is unmatched. From his clothes to the direction of A Single Man, nothing is ever understated or overstated and everything is deliberate. You know Tom Ford when you see Tom Ford. What I love most about him is he presents a very powerful image of women. Powerful, in charge, sometimes intimidating, and always naturally beautiful. This is the type of woman I strive to be. His line of make up is him right down to the timeless details of the packaging. A beautiful shiny brown shell with gold trimming. But what's in it has change my look and whether it's in my head or not, communicates the woman I am inside out. 

His traceless foundations is my favorite of all time. I've spent hundreds of dollars ($80/bottle) on this foundation and it is worth every penny. It goes on smooth, gives an exceptional glow, and lightweight. It lasts all day and is perfect for summer or winter. It's like my skin but 10x better. I usually top it off with a dusting of La Mer The Powder which surprisingly is a good deal ($65/for a GIANT jar that will last you years) for a luxury brand. The powder is translucent and I've seen it on every skin color out there so it's pretty universal. I'm all about mixing high and low when it comes to make up, but these two are  items are my two can't live out when it comes to my make up routine and would recommend to anyone.
