Gilded Lily

[section] I created this look for the woman who has the confidence to show both softness and strength. [section] LIFESTYLE INSPIRATION I created this look for the woman who has the confidence to show both softness and strength. [section] SKINCARE For petal smooth skin sleep in the Natura Bisse Diamond Extreme Oil and Diamond Extreme Mask with retinol the night before. Before makeup I applied the antioxidant superstar Caudalie Premier Cru The Elixir followed by La Mer The Moisturizing Soft Cream to add delicate moisture. To enhance the texture, tone, and translucency of the skin I finished with a dollop of the rose hued La Mer Perfecting Treatment. DAYTIME COLOR PALETTE I imagined the soft blush the lily takes on at dawn and translated this into a spectrum of innocent pink shades on the lips and cheeks, with a glimmer of antique gold across the eyes. My favorite products in this color palette include TOM FORD Lip Color in Forbidden Pink, TOM FORD Cheek Color in Wicked, and TOM FORD Cream Color for Eyes in Burnished Copper. [section] NIGHTTIME COLOR ENHANCEMENTS Picture the mysterious mood the lily takes on at dusk: the sun goes down to make way for cascading moonlight to add seductive shadows, giving the lily all new dimension. The eyes are intensified with light-reflective neutrals. To keep the eyes in focus, the lips are softly colored with a semi-glossy pale pink. The play of shadow and light on the face is emphasized with subtle cream contour and highlight. My favorite selections in this range of colors and textures include TOM FORD Eye Color Quad in Nude Dip, TOM FORD Lip Color Shine in Chastity, and TOM FORD Shade & Illuminate in Intensity One. COMPLETE THE LOOK You're not fully dressed until you're wearing the perfect scent. Complete this look with Tom Ford Shanghai Lily, a floral Oriental scent that transports the senses into a world of rare and opulent ingredients from the historic Silk Road.
