Tom Ford True Coral, Wild Ginger, Velvet Cherry Lip Color Metallic Reviews & Swatches
True Coral
Tom Ford Beauty True Coral Clutch-Size Lip Color Metallic ($36.00 for 0.07 oz.) is a neon, medium-dark pink-coral with strong, warm gold pearl throughout. It had nearly opaque color coverage in a single layer, which applied evenly and fluidly across my lips, though it had enough slip that a bit of product sank into my deeper lip lines (not noticeable in person, thankfully!). The consistency was lightweight, thin, and hydrating to wear for the four and a half hours it lasted for.

Formula Overview
$36.00/0.07 oz. - $514.29 Per Ounce
The formula is not different from the full-sized Lip Color range; they offer a travel-sized version (which is actually cheaper by the ounce: $36.00/0.07 oz. or $514.29/oz. compared to the full-size at $54.00/0.10 oz. or $540.00/oz.
The formula is supposed to have an "ultra-creamy texture" and "pure color" with a "balance of luminosity." The
coverage ranged from semi-opaque to nearly opaque with most shades applying well with even, flattering coverage.
The wear was anywhere from three hours to five hours. In general, the formula has a creamy texture that's easy to work with, comfortable to wear, and was lightly to moderately hydrating. They have a vanilla scent but no discernible taste.

Wild Ginger
Tom Ford Beauty Wild Ginger Clutch-Size Lip Color Metallic ($36.00 for 0.07 oz.) is a bright, medium orange with moderate, warm undertones and flecks of pink and gold micro-glitter. This shade had more of a texture to it as I applied it to my lips from the larger particle sparkle/glitter in it. It had nearly opaque pigmentation in a single stroke, which applied evenly and sat well on my lips. The consistency was lightweight, creamy without being too emollient, and was comfortable to wear. This shade stayed on well for five hours and felt lightly moisturizing over time.

Tom Ford Beauty Velvet Cherry Clutch-Size Lip Color Metallic ($36.00 for 0.07 oz.) is a deep plum with strong,w arm undertones and a fine, pearl throughout. It had good color payoff in a single layer, though it wasn’t opaque and didn’t build up fully. The texture was lightweight, thin without being clingy, and was comfortable to apply and to wear.

LOVE Wild Ginger! What a perfectly wild summer orange! Makes me think of an elegant beach resort or a trip to LA, flowy white linen dresses, and lace up sandals. Obviously I’ve been stuck inside a bit too long! LOL
Colour Pop’s Foolish is a pretty close, and way cheaper dupe for Wild Ginger. Much easier on the wallet Nancy.
All three of these are lovely but I couldn’t pull off Wild Ginger.
Wild Ginger, both the matte and mettalic are appealing to me this year. The matte is sold out on big S. Lipsticks are not a high priority item on my wishlist right now. That’s perhaps a good thing.
I knew I would love Wild Ginger and I do – lucky for me that CP’s Foolish is a pretty close dupe.
Wild Ginger is really a unique orange. Love it!
