Thank you very much for your review of these TF’s new eye palettes!! 🙏🏻 And… you’re extra pretty today with your hair slightly curved, it suits your beautifully!!! 👌🏻🤩🤩😉
Hi Lexi, both palettes look beautiful on you! I wasn't sure which I'd prefer when swatched but perhaps Rose Topaz which almost looks cool neutral when applied. So much intel and so many oomparisons. Thank you so much for always being so thorough and detailed! 🥰❤❤👏👏
Great review and comparisons. I always wait for your review before making ny purchases. Your hard work is so very much appreciated. I prefer the Rose Topaz, so happy it is permanent. I would love to watch your ranking of your Tom Ford eyeshadows. Many hugs 🤗
Do you have Charlotte Tilbury Desert Haze palette, smoky quartz reminds me of that one, just from memory. I didn’t pull it out to compare to your swatch pictures. Thanks for the review. 👏🏼☺️
Okay, so I’ve watched this three times now and just ordered Rose Topaz. I wasn’t going to order any of these, but I really do love the ease and speed of creams when getting ready for work in the morning and have issues with shadows lasting all day, plus always get fallout eventually from lining with powders. I also don’t own any crème quads/compacts, so I have to rifle through my whole collection of pots and am not always sure about what I want (I suffer from choice paralysis) I think this could streamline both selection and application without sacrificing a dimensional eye look suitable for a professional work environment. I credit your thorough review!
I don't really have too many terracotta shades unfortunately. The Guerlain 1830 lipstick is a red with a terracotta tinge and it is incredible. My favorite terracotta shade I have is Cle de Peau Camellia. It is an interesting shade. It is in my Cle de Peau Holiday video if you are interested in seeing it. Otherwise, I think SUQQU makes some great Terracotta shades if those are something you can access.
Hi Lexi! Thank you so much for sharing these two quads from TF. Such a wonderful thorough video. You have me sold on the limited edition metal lust. I wish TF would retire more of his old mediocre quads and make this metal lust permanent! Susan
I think it's safe to use those brushes, I haven't had any issues but keep in mind it will give you a softer application. There is a bit more of a difference in how much softer these brushes will apply this formula vs. a traditional powder formula but they work beautifully.
Lovely looks Lexi - my favourite was the first palette I think. I love all the details and swatches - a pleasure to watch and I always enjoy your ideas on putting all the colours together as I am not very good at creating looks on my own! Thank you :) x
Mixed opinions about these two quads,I love the smokey quartz color but it doesn't have shimmer which is a minus point ,for rose topez I love the final look that you've created ,though I have less interest in this but overall eyelook I love this quad more than the smokey one ,if smokey have any topper like shimmer I vote for smokey ,both the formula is interesting and I want to try ,metallust is more interesting than rose topez.what is your opinion?🤗🤗🤗
Thank you for featuring these new quads. Thank you also for reviewing them thoroughly, along with shade comparisons. The Metallust quad looks to be easier to work with. I will stick with the TF wet/dry formula.
Hi Lexi, I love all the demos, but I have to say I am loving Rose Topaz. Smoky Quartz is a little too dark. You look beautiful & thank you for another great review. 🌹🤍
Much needed video. Can’t thank you enough. I am trying hard to get just one among these two. After watching your video and comparisons I am thinking of getting Rose Topaz and can Smokey quad let go as I have Coco Mirage, Body Heat, Dessert Fox and all. Thank you Lexi! Btw, glad to see your beautiful face on Monday morning. Stay shining ❤️
There is a similarity but I think this goes on a bit more thinly than the ND. These are probably better for mature eyes as it seems to have a bit of a blurring effect after it settles in.
Hello Lexi, points to TF for spelling smoky correctly, but that palette is overall too warm to be called smoky, IMO. Perfect timing on releasing your TF videos! ❤️
I found that the creme formula (matte, satin, sparkle) is much easier to blend than the other TF formulas. I was impressed at how little effort it took to blend.
Thank you so much for such a detailed review with comparisons! As always, I feel fully equipped to make a buying decision, and think that I’ll try to get the limited edition palette if it becomes available. I’ll use your Beautylish link to order, and will hold off on the two new ones for now. ❤️❤️❤️
Awesome video, Lexi. So here is the hard question. If you weren't a TH-cam influencer and you have Nude Dip and love it, would you still buy Rose Topaz? I'm trying so hard not to overbuy and I'm still waiting on my Metallust Lava Luster and the other red shimmery one to arrive; they already shipped from Beautylish and I think they arrive tomorrow. I'm definitely skipping the Smoky Quartz one.
I think since you have and love Nude Dip, you can wait and get rose topaz on sale in the future if at all. There is no rush so you might as well wait until you are in need of those shades. I think with these quads being permanent, it is a good idea to wait a few months at least and get them on sale. If I were you, I would keep using Nude Dip and put this one on a list of things you would like in the future. If you see it on sale, then see if you still want this one or if something has come along during that time that you prefer. This is a nice classic quad but the metallust quad is my preference and since you have that one coming already, I wouldn't stress over these.
Well, I wasn’t going to buy the TF quad, but SFA discounted it 20%, so I picked up Rose Topaz. Through your link of course! SFA didn’t seem to have Metal Lust. I hope I picked the right one for myself. I have a feeling shelf life will be shorter than other formulas because of the moisture content.
Hi dear Lexi, loved the video, and such beautiful quads, also the the other one you showed earlier which is your favorite! Beautiful video, with lots of details, info, comparisons, thanks so much!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩 I don't know if i ever can get my hands on this, from America it can't be shipped to The Netherlands, and since Brexit, Selfridges is impossible still, but hopefully they show up at our own Bijenkorf here or Sephora France!!! The Smokey Quartz quad i find the most interesting, that formula, is it comparable to the legendary discontinued Cocoa Mirage quad from Tom Ford (have 2 back ups!), do you know that maybe? Thanks anyway for again a very good video, have an amazing day!!!😘😘😘😘
@@LexiJong Saks Fifth Avenue: this item is not selected to ship to the country selected🙃and Nordstrom ships this to US adresses only🙃. At Sephora France it's already been sold out, but life goes on, i don't know what it is, it's quite a circus to get hand on a new TF palette here, almost impossible😂don't know which regulations there are, Beautylish also may not ship this brand to my country, i don't know what it is. But i can paint the eyes of the entire street here, so, still enough!!!😂
Love TF quad quality but I’m tired of the same 5 neutral/warm palette releases. At this point it’s practically always warm nudes, bronze/golds, rose tones that can be easily duped by previous quads. Wish they would come out with something different, like silver metallics, gun metal, pastel blues, true cool tones, even a rainbow palette would be interesting to see TF release.

Thank you Pam! I definitely prefer Rose Topaz and I agree - it looks better on than it does swatched imo.
Such a thorough review! Thank you so much, Lexi! You look gorgeous!
Thank you so much Christine!
Your hair looks amazing!!!!!
Thank you!!
Great review and comparisons. I always wait for your review before making ny purchases. Your hard work is so very much appreciated. I prefer the Rose Topaz, so happy it is permanent.
I would love to watch your ranking of your Tom Ford eyeshadows. Many hugs 🤗
That is a great suggestion! I should do that!!
I love your videos as you usually enter to the topic quickly,. Great job.
I appreciate that!
Thank you so much for a great review!
Thank you Camellia! I would love to see Tiger Eye on you!
Do you have Charlotte Tilbury Desert Haze palette, smoky quartz reminds me of that one, just from memory. I didn’t pull it out to compare to your swatch pictures. Thanks for the review. 👏🏼☺️
No i am sorry - i don’t have that one.
@@LexiJong no worries. Thank you!!
Very helpful Lexi and great demos.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you Amanda!

Thank you so much!! Please let me know how you like it!
Could you please recommend a terracotta lipstick with cream or satin finish as well? Thanks a lot

I would love to see rose topaz swatched vs the ND glam face palet light. Or am I imagining similarity?
Unfortunately I passed my glam face palette on to a friend since I didn't love it.
Hi Lexi!
Thank you so much for sharing these two quads from TF. Such a wonderful thorough video. You have me sold on the limited edition metal lust. I wish TF would retire more of his old mediocre quads and make this metal lust permanent!
Susan
I completely agree Susan! Metallust should be permanent!
I was confused between these two. I think I will go with Smokey quartz.
Is it safe to use silver fox and squirrel hair brushes with this formula?
I think it's safe to use those brushes, I haven't had any issues but keep in mind it will give you a softer application. There is a bit more of a difference in how much softer these brushes will apply this formula vs. a traditional powder formula but they work beautifully.
Such incredibly gorgeous demos Lexi!!
Thank you so much!

Hi Lexi,
Does the Smokey quartz have talc or some alumina ingredients? Thank you.
Great video
I don't see talc specifically but aluminum powder is about halfway down the list.
Mixed opinions about these two quads,I love the smokey quartz color but it doesn't have shimmer which is a minus point ,for rose topez I love the final look that you've created ,though I have less interest in this but overall eyelook I love this quad more than the smokey one ,if smokey have any topper like shimmer I vote for smokey ,both the formula is interesting and I want to try ,metallust is more interesting than rose topez.what is your opinion?🤗🤗🤗
I prefer the metallust and these two palettes are permanent so you can wait and pick one up later.
@@LexiJong yes dear ,I too have the same thinking ☺
Thank you for featuring these new quads. Thank you also for reviewing them thoroughly, along with shade comparisons. The Metallust quad looks to be easier to work with. I will stick with the TF wet/dry formula.
Thank you Jocelyne! Metallust is better imo.
Hi Lexi, I love all the demos, but I have to say I am loving Rose Topaz. Smoky Quartz is a little too dark. You look beautiful & thank you for another great review. 🌹🤍

Thank you Munira! I think that is a good choice.
Thanks for the comparisons. Don’t think I need either of these palettes. LOVE the hair.
You are so welcome! Thank you Patricia!
Hi Lexi. Have you noticed yours getting hard pan after swatching? I read/watched a few reviews where theirs got hard pan.
I have noticed that with the traditional flat pan matte shadows from TF such as mink mirage and fume noir but not yet with these creme shadows.
@@LexiJong yeah I have that with a few of his older ones too. Thank you
How does this formula compare to Natasha Denona’s CP formula?? Thanks!!
There is a similarity but I think this goes on a bit more thinly than the ND. These are probably better for mature eyes as it seems to have a bit of a blurring effect after it settles in.
@@LexiJong ohhh thank you so much 😊
Do you mean the powder formula as in the permanent line formula? Thanks, Lexi.
Yes the one that is not the wet/dry.
Hello Lexi, points to TF for spelling smoky correctly, but that palette is overall too warm to be called smoky, IMO. Perfect timing on releasing your TF videos! ❤️
Thank you so much Claire! I agree about the name.
