Tom Ford Arabesque Eye Color Quad Review & Swatches – Spring 2020

What is the Tom Ford Arabesque Eye Color Quad?

Now to start off, this is a permanent addition to the TF colour collection, and there are four other quads, Noir Fume, De La Creme, Mink Mirage and Sous la Sable.

I am a fan of the formulation of Tom Ford shadows. I usually normally favour the ‘baked’ finish that’s used in quads like Honeymoon and Nude Dip.  However, this uses the classic format.

The satin shades (top left and bottom right) are smooth and blendable that they feel like creams. They are easy to blend and I found they resist creasing even without primer. This palette also contains two sparkle shades in the most stunning jewel tones. These are the shades that apply better with fingertips. You have to work a bit harder to build these up, but they do give the most stunning and long lasting glimmer. It doesn’t fall, and it doesn’t turn you into a glitter ball.

I tested this palette during the day time, when I am less conscious of looking after my eye look! Regardless, it stayed in place and still looked flawless in the evening. Yay!
