Tom Ford Cream and Powder Eye Color in Midnight Sea | Review, Swatches & Availability

Purchased by Me (Affiliated Links)

Tom Ford Beauty Cream and Powder Eye Color in Midnight Sea (Limited Edition) from the Summer 2015 Soleil Collection is still available, and like Tom Ford Cream and Powder Eye Color in Naked Bronze (Limited Edition; reviewed here) it is worth every last cent. I am so glad that I picked one up, and urge you to grab one, if you have been wanting this twinkling gem, while there are still some left.

This staggeringly beautiful duo features a stunning Cream Color for Eyes on the bottom that is a repromote of Spring 2015 Cream Color for Eyes (Limited Edition; reviewed here). It is a complex khaki-kissed charcoal shade that is so exceptional that I was happy to repurchase it for its sooty smoky goodness. However, I also really needed that stunning Celestial Powder in that luscious teal shade because it was unlike anything else in my collection.

While the teal Celestial Shade offers stunning shimmer, it is not too glittery, and therefore is even office appropriate if you tone it down by sheering out the Cream Shadow. It does, however, offer buildable coverage that would be far more appropriate for an intense evening look. Unless you have oily eyelids, you won't likely feel the need to use a primer underneath the cream shadow. I find this formula to be budge-proof and it lasts on me all day without fading, creasing or smudging.

 According to Tom Ford Beauty,

Tom Ford Cream & Powder Eye Color pairs two coveted formulas in one to create a lustrous and sexy summertime eye. The ultra-pigmented, metallic cream shadow glides onto lids with a rich, molten glow and the sparkling celestial powder intensifies the look with alluring shimmer.

About the Summer 2015 Tom Ford Beauty Soleil Collection:

The Summer 2015 Tom Ford Soleil Collection captures the warmth and sensuality of summer skin. Eyes smolder in burnished, sun-kissed tones or metallic shades of aqua and storm. Cheeks glow with luminous warmth and lips are saturated with sheer shades of nude and rose. Completing the irresistible effect, Tom Ford Shimmering Body Oil veils the skin in golden light and fragrance that evokes the erotic pleasure of sand, sea and sun.

Spring 2015 and Midnight Sea

While Spring 2015 and the Cream Color in Midnight Sea are said to be one and the same, my swatches of Spring 2015 seem to indicate that while the hue is the same that the intensity seems a touch amplified in Spring 2015.

These swatches fail in comparison to seeing the magnificence of Midnight Sea in person.

Cream Color for Eyes in Spring 2015 is $42.00 for .21 oz. vs. the Cream Color for Eyes in Midnight Sea is $60.00 for .24 oz. of Cream Color and .07 oz. of the Celestial Powder Shadow.
