Golden Hour
Tom Ford Beauty Golden Hour Eye Color Quad ($90.00 for 0.21 oz.) is a new, probably limited edition, warm-toned color story featuring various hues of copper. The color story was darker and more red-toned than orange-toned compared to Peach Dawn, released alongside this quad, but obviously oddly similar for the same release. It features the gel-powder formula that can be used wet or dry with ease and tends to be more reliable in terms of performance/quality. All four shades were pigmented, blendable, and had that “melted” effect on the lids.
