Tom Ford Blazing Kiss, Neutral Party, Pink Charade Lip Colors Reviews & Swatches
Blazing Kiss
Tom Ford Beauty Blazing Kiss Lip Color ($57.00 for 0.1 oz.) is a deeper, rosy plum with moderate, warm undertones and a cream finish. It was richly pigmented with a smooth, moderately creamy consistency that glided comfortably across my lips while delivering even coverage that didn’t emphasize my lip texture. It stayed on well for five hours and felt hydrating over time.

Formula Overview
$57.00/0.1 oz. - $570.00 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed have an "ultra-creamy texture" with "smooth application" that will deliver "pure color." The lipstick tends to have semi-opaque to opaque coverage with a natural to luminous finish with some shades with very fine pearl and others with more metallic shimmer. The consistency is typically creamy, lightweight, and has moderate slip, which makes it comfortable to wear and to apply but is not the most long-lasting lipstick formula. The wear tends to range between four and six hours with some shades performing above and below that range. There's a vanilla scent but no discernible taste.

Neutral Party
Tom Ford Beauty Neutral Party Lip Color ($57.00 for 0.1 oz.) is a muted, medium-dark pink with strong, warm undertones and a cream finish. The texture was lightweight, moderately creamy with noticeable slip that seemed to settle into my deeper lip lines just a smidgen in the close-up photos–not enough to be noticeable in person–but ensured it was comfortable to wear. It had opaque color payoff that lasted well for four and a half hours and felt lightly moisturizing while worn.

Pink Charade
Tom Ford Beauty Pink Charade Lip Color ($57.00 for 0.1 oz.) is a light-medium pink with neutral undertones and a cream finish. It had nearly opaque color coverage in a single layer, which applied fairly evenly but had slight streakiness along the edges of my lips that wouldn’t smooth out. It was fairly forgiving of imperfections in texture but not as good as other shades in the formula. The consistency was moderately creamy, lightweight, and more emollient than the average shade in this range. It wore well for four hours and felt hydrating while worn.

Neutral Party and Blazing Kiss are gorgeous! I have some dupes for Neutral Party, which is my favorite, duh. Don’t think I have any for Blazing Kiss, I’ll recheck.
I think the first two shades are really pretty, but fairly popular shades so that a less expensive, but good dupe can be found (if only CP didn;t make their lipstick range limited edition!). The last pink shade was quite disappointing.
I like Blazing Kiss and Neutral Party. I have a dupe for the latter, yay! I have two dupes on my WL for Blazing Kiss from Revlon and MAC. I’ll probably buy either of them if I remember after my low -super low buy ends whenever that may be. 🙂
I don’t think I’ll ever pay $57 for a lipstick, but who knows if it’s unique enough I might.
Wow, is it me, but the colors are not at all the same on the lip. Disappointment for me.
