ladies ...women are multifaceted creatures capable of reinventing herself clearly Tom worships you. look at this collection its gorgeous and it shows a side of cosmetics you don't see aren't you a little sick of the frilly frilly? Don't take this the wrong way but the price point reflects the market and lifestyle that tom is targeting so if you aren't going to pay what they are asking well you've made that decision. i love the composition of color and i like that its sexy and sharp. i really don't think his price point is that bad especially where we can all agree we want it and tom hasn't disappointed us yet we know it will over exceed our expectations

Do you have any plans to review Tom Ford cosmetics and/or brushes? Thanks.

como puedo conseguir los prductos desde mexico?

I really looked at the eyeshadow and guys, it's not as expensive as it sounds. Here's why... If you divide it out per gram of product TF is about $7.5 per gram. This is much cheaper than the other high end brands. Dior = $9.3 Chanel =$11.4 and I was SHOCKED by this one Kevyn Aucoin = $48 PER GRAM there is only 1.13 grams of shadow in a 5 pan palette. I'm trying to verify this cuz it makes my soul hurt. Oh... the TF quads are also cheaper than mid range brands MAC ($10/gram) and MUFE($8.4) I hope this helps someone ! This is cheaper than MAC($10), MUFE($7.80)

Tom Ford Lip Lacquer Vinyl I had to play with this a bit, alone on my lips it was ok, under light or sunlight it was very shimmery sparkly which was nice but it did not feel like the name "Lip Lacquer Vinyl" at all, I can't explain it but it did not even feel like a gloss or even a lip balm. So Then I added some clear gloss and WOW it was just so pretty on my lips, I bet this would be perfect over lipsticks and layered with clear or color gloss but I did have to play around with it, alone its not bad but def not what I was expecting for $30

I love this collection but why is it sooooooooo expensive. $48.00 for a lipstick, you're kidding me.

It´s a dream.... I love it.

Already pre-ordered at Bergdorfs. Cannot wait for this line to debut!

That's a pretty extreme price tag-fifty bucks for ONE lipstick? I have a hard time imagining the formula is more miraculous than guerlain or chanel, or longer lasting than the L'oreal ones or even the 7 dollar covergirl ones. This seems to be purely paying for "brand" I see nothing fresh or new here

Goodness. What does this makeup contain to be that expensive? I love Tom Ford but this is ridiculous

Wow and I thought Kevyn Aucoin was expensive.At least HE was a master makeup artist!!

I would absolutely LOVE to see this line in person, it looks fabulout! But alas, I don't have a Neiman Marcus or Bergdorf anywhere near me. :(

Wow...jealous of the U.S. right now!

Completely out of my price range. I'm disappointed by how pokey and poor quality the applicator brushes (that accompany the palettes) appear. You'd think TF would go the extra mile to make those applicators at least useable!

it all looks beautiful but is out of my price range

The products look really beautiful but... over $40 for a mascara is actually ridiculous.

If Mac pulled prices like this I would be done with cosmetics forever. Am I going mad but a brush for 110 dollars? Darn that's a lot. The things look lack luster I expected me Tom.

MAC and TF beauty are the same company......Estee Lauder! EL manufactures both brands.

You are correct which is why I've decided to pass on this...I was also told the quality is basically a dupe for Giorgo Armani. I don't care what the reviews are or who the reviews come from, I don't think the prices are justified and this is a prime example of you paying for marketing and the name on the product.

i haaaate it, why does it have to be sooooooo darn pretty ,... :/

Forgive me if this question has already been asked, kinda in a hurry! Will be reviewing any of these products Christine?? Thanks!

I don't have anything at this time, sorry!

Well, I'll begotohell ... how perfectly absolutely gorgeous this stuff is. I must have it

I'm honestly wondering where they plan to fit into the market with these prices and what look like easily dupeable shades. Unless their product quality if somehow a billion times better than anyone else's, I don't see them going very far as more than the novelty of owning something by Tom Ford, honestly.

Would love to try it...but too damn expensive!

No, no, no, no, no, no, no. There's something pretentious and silly about Tom Ford doing a make-up collection. Plus that picture of him holding the girl's neck creeps me out. Objectification anyone? Yuck.

wow!! Everything1s just wonderful!

It's very extravagant and all very luxury branded. I can't see this being in the average woman's purse. I mean, I think it's great that people still want some sophistication, but it's beyond HIGH END. And after reading an interview with him in Vogue, it's obviously not geared towards the average woman. I'm not even sure it's geared towards the modern woman; he made a comment that no woman should do her makeup in public unless she's using a beautiful compact. Okay, I don't LOVE when a woman does her entire face on the subway (because it kills the mystery for me), but he's talking to a large percentage out there who have no choice. I buy cosmetics to wear them; not to display them on my vanity (which is another thing he thinks all women should have). He's of another era, which translates great on film. But that's fiction.

Yeah, given the price, I am not part of the target market. Very pretty though. Casablanca lipstick is one of the prettiest I've ever tried on.

Ok, so I think Tom Ford has done some great things in the past, and when he wants to he can be the Master of Sultry. However, I think I'm likely to just give this whole collection a miss. I don't see anything on the face of it that I just have to have. I'm not a lipstick girl; I'm more of a,"sheer-gloss-so-I-can-play-with-eyeshadow-lady". As such, I just am not seeing products in those photos that scream, " OWN ME! OWN ME NOW!" I wish I could say it was just the price tag, because I do think some of those prices are prohibitive for many people, but it's not. In a market where Creme de la mer seems to stick around no matter what price, it's not as though his niche is worried about how to pay for dinner after buying a few products. Truth of the matter for me is that it's the products leave me flat. Unless I see some reviews that just cry about the innovation of product and how much better and different the items are to everything else on the market, then I don't see me getting this stuff. It's less creative and more boring, which isn't something I'd have expected to say about Tom Ford. 70's redux? Bleh, so been there how many times over? If I'm going to spend the money, and I might be persuaded to, then it'll be because I'm so excited about product. Maybe he'll win me over come Spring.

WOW!!!!!! Everything looks great! And with such a hefty price tag it seems promising. Christine, could you do a review when you can? I would love to see if these live up to their price. The brushes are VERY expensive. I want to see what they are like and if they are worth it or if I should stick to MAC, Sigma, and drugstore

I can skip this, but what's really freaking me out is not the price, but his hand. All of his fingers look like they are the same length! (o_0)

Seriously, $30 for a nailpolish?

Wow. Christine, fantastic pics! You've outdone yourself, which is not easy to do lol! The products do look beautiful but I have to wonder, are they special enough to warrant the prices? I mean, $30.00 for a nail polish! I do love Tom Ford but I don't think I'll be splurging on any of these products, unless the reviews are stellar. Thanks for the info!

Now I don't feel guilty about my MUFE and FACE Atelier. I'll bet the Tom Ford collection has good products but I'll pass. It actually seems more expensive than Chanel and NARS.

It actually is more expensive actually, most Chanel lipsticks are like 32 bucks USD. This is like 16 bucks MORE EXPENSIVE than Chanel.

I find it puzzling that very high end brands insist on including those tiny embarrassing sponge-tip applicators. I can't picture anyone EVER using those things after dropping 78$ on a palette. Surely, we can afford an eye brush or two.

Looks like a great assortment of basics, but the colours are just that, basic. A few of the nail lacquers are catching my eye though! The packaging is lovely!

I wish there was a "meh" button. It's hard to pick between love it and leave it, especially when you like how the products look but hate the price.

The price is rather too much for me, and I'm not digging the packaging. It's too 70's wood paneling for me, and bland. But, that's just me, and I can definitely see where this could appeal to a lot of people. I hope the quality justifies the price.

Unless it makes me look 20, it's too expensive for me.

Great to see the color range in their foundation. It's nice to see a high end line cater to people with all skin tones!

Ugh! It's gorgeous but too far out of my budget. :(

Wow, let me just mortgage my house to pay for all the items in this collection (may have to throw in the cottage as well!). Some of the brushes look amazing, as do a lot of other very tempting items - the blushes, what I'm guessing is a contouring kit and some of those lippies - YUM.

I'm very interested in the foundations as that's the only thing I will splurge on when it comes to makeup and its good to see he tried to cover all shade ranges.

The packaging is beautiful but the prices are insane! The brush prices are comparable to the most expensive Hakuhodo brushes so I wonder how they compare? I know Tom Ford likes to be provocative and I don't mean to be overly sensitive- but I think naming an eye colour 'Bruise' is offensive. I know it's meant to be edgy, but come on! There's nothing beautiful or sexy about a woman being punched.

what made you assume bruise was a reference to domestic violence? fruit bruises, does that offend you?

awwwww. just saw the information about the retailers.... do you know if there is aaaaaany chance that the collection will be for sale anywhere in europe (as i live in austria?) :(
