Adora
Tom Ford Beauty Adora Lip Color ($54.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a muted, medium-dark plum with subtle, warm undertones and a natural sheen. It had nearly opaque pigmentation that covered the lips with beautifully even, smooth coverage that sat exceptionally well on the lips. I felt like the finish of this made my lips appear plumper and smoother. The texture was lightweight, lightly creamy without being too slippery, and comfortable to wear. It wore well for four and half hours and was moisturizing while worn.

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.

Contempt
Tom Ford Beauty Contempt Lip Color ($54.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a brighter, medium orange with warm undertones and an ultra-fine, golden pearl, which gave it a more luminous finish. The lipstick felt creamy with moderate slip, so it did not feel or look heavy on the lips but applied without tugging. It had good color payoff, which was buildable to full coverage with a second layer. I noticed that the formula smoothed out my lip lines quite a bit. This shade stayed on well for four and a half hours and felt hydrating to me.

Vermillionaire
Tom Ford Beauty Vermillionaire Lip Color ($54.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a bright, medium orange with warm, red undertones and a cream finish. The lipstick was intensely pigmented with a smooth, creamy texture that didn’t drag or tug on the lips, but it still adhered well so the product did not slide around over time. It lasted for five hours and was lightly hydrating while worn.
