Dashing

Tom Ford Beauty Dashing Lip Color Matte ($55.00 for 0.1 oz.) is a bright, medium orange-coral with strong, warm undertones and a satin finish. It had opaque pigmentation in a single layer, but the color separated along my deeper lip lines a bit, which made it harder to get really smooth, even coverage.

The texture was creamy, smooth, and glided on easily without feeling slippery, but it was slightly denser (though not heavy to wear), which I think contributed to the product pulling away at my lip lines. It wore well for four hours and had further color settle into my lip lines over time, though the formula was lightly hydrating.

Formula Overview

$55.00/0.1 oz. - $550.00 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to be "richly pigmented" and have a "luxurious, velvet matte finish." The majority of the shades are semi-opaque to fully opaque with lightweight, velvety textures--creamy enough to glide on nicely but not enough slip to feel slippery or slide around on the lips when worn. The wear time varied from shade to shade with richer shades lasting over six hours. The formula was comfortable to wear and often lightly hydrating. There's a vanilla scent but no discernible taste.

Equus

Tom Ford Beauty Equus Lip Color Matte ($55.00 for 0.1 oz.) is a muted, medium-dark rosy brown with warm undertones and a satin finish. It had excellent color coverage that adhered smoothly and evenly to my lips in a single stroke.

The lipstick had a lightly creamy consistency that was dense, substantial, and more velvety–so it glided on but didn’t feel slippery. There was a smidgen of product in my deeper lip lines if I looked closely at the close-up but couldn’t see it in person during wear. It stayed on nicely for four and a half hours and felt lightly moisturizing over time.

Fascinator

Tom Ford Beauty Fascinator Lip Color Matte ($55.00 for 0.1 oz.) is a light-medium pink with strong, warm undertones and a satin finish. The consistency felt lightweight, lightly creamy, and velvety, which enabled it to apply easily across my lips without tugging.

There was a bit of separation along my deeper lip lines, which became noticeable in person after two hours of wear. I could smooth it back out by pressing my lips together, but it’s not ideal. It had opaque color payoff that lasted for four and a half hours overall, and the formula itself seemed lightly hydrating.
