Tom Ford has your summer skin covered

From clothing and shoes to perfume and makeup, nobody knows sophisticated-sexy like Tom Ford. His cosmetics are the pinnacle of luxury, and if I HAD to stick with one brand for the rest of my life, this would be it. I’m particularly fond of the seasonal Soleil collections because of their more subtle approach to beauty that focuses on glowy, glistening skin with an understated pop of color here and there. The Summer 2019 Soleil collection may be one of my favorites yet, and I am absolutely, positively, undeniably obsessed with the Glow Tone Up Foundation SPF 45 Hydrating Cushion Compact.

Yes, it’s a mouthful, but this compact serves so many purposes it warrants the long name. It’s a sheer yet buildable foundation that leaves you with the most radiant skin ever, it brightens the skin and evens out tone, it hydrates your skin, it’s a sunscreen, and it imparts a cool, refreshing sensation on contact.

It’s only available in three flesh-toned shades—but it’s super-adaptable so you don’t have to worry about a perfect match. Let it be known that it skews a bit dark—because apparently Tom believes sun-kissed skin is an important accessory for summer. This compact also comes in “Tone Up” shades designed to give you even more glow, and these can be used on their own, under the flesh-toned version (or any other complexion product) or as a highlighting finishing touch.

Oh, and they are so fancy and luxurious I just can't take it. If I close my eyes while blotting it on (and block out the Spongebob or Loud House in the background), I almost feel like I’m in Capri or another far-flung Mediterranean destination for a millisecond (and I’ll take whatever I can get).
