Tom Ford Patent Finish Lip Color ($54.00 for 0.07 fl. oz.) is supposed to be a “lip stain with an ultra-glossy finish” that has “intense, vibrant color” and “long-lasting high shine.” Since it debuted, I’ve been a big fan of the formula–if you like glossy, pigmented, and long-wearing color, it’s a strong contender to consider for your glossy lip needs.

It’s a comfortable formula that is lightweight and hydrating enough that I often forget I’ve had it on all day. The only part I don’t like about it is the applicator.

The brand originally launched eight shades but recently added five more to the range, which have been reviewed. Here’s a recap of how each shade has rated (including the original eight)…
