Sunlit Rose

Tom Ford Beauty Sunlit Rose Soleil Lip Balm ($58.00 for 0.1 oz.) is a light, pink-coral base with contrasting iridescent blue pearl throughout a balm-like sheen. It’s supposed to be “sheer” in coverage and be a hydrating lip balm.

It was, in fact, sheer in coverage and balm-like with good glide and a comfortable application, but it settled a bit into my deeper lip lines and caught around texture imperfections. The formula felt lightly hydrating while it was on, but it didn’t have particularly long wear (about two hours at best) and less so post-wear.

Yowsa, for 58 bucks you would think the formula would better. I like shimmery pinks, but no thank you!
