Tom Ford Naked Coral (21) Lip Color

Tom Ford Naked Coral (21) Lip Color ($52.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a light-medium, pinky-coral with warm undertones and fine gold shimmer. It had mostly opaque color payoff with a lightly creamy consistency that glided on the lips without tugging but wasn’t too thick or too slippery, so it didn’t slide around or feel heavy on. The color lasted for four hours on me and was lightly hydrating. Buxom Coral Confession (P, $22.00) is less shimmery, more muted (90% similar).

Tom Ford Forbidden Pink (22) Lip Color ($52.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a soft, light-medium pink with warm, yellow undertones and fine pearl shimmer. It had semi-opaque pigmentation with a lightly creamy consistency that had a little more slip than Naked Coral and had a thinner feel to it overall compared to much of the Lip Color range.

You look beautiful. I love the eye look! I’m glad these are permanent. I like both…figures! I have some Tom Ford lipsticks. But, honestly I don’t find myself reaching for them anymore than my less expensive ones. I have to wear a liner with them to get them to wear more than a few hours. They are lovely and the hydration is great. They make the lips look a little plump. So, I like them for a luxurious treat here and there. On another note, if you have to pick 3 or 4 of the Lips and Boys, which would you chose? 🙂

Thanks! I already have a girl at the counter looking for Starvos for me. She said their store was getting only 4-6 of Starvos! Isn’t that crazy?! Going to sell out quick again.

Naked Coral looks so good on you! I loved it until I looked at the dupes and possible dupes, and saw shades that I already own, LoL! So that one would be moot for me.
As to Forbidden Pink, hmmm, for $52, I would want a better finish on it and for it to not look so mundane and done a million times over. So I fell for one of its dupes! MAC Lip Blossom is how I wish FP looked!
