Shine On

With names like, “Quiver,” “Smitten” and “Ravenous,” Tom Ford’s ten new lip colors[1] are unsurprisingly sensual – but what else would you expect from the former Gucci designer who, along with Carine Roitfeld, invented the “Porno Chic” aesthetic.

Despite his penchant for dirty talk[2] with the press, however, and the flirtatious names of each shade, Tom Ford’s new lip color shine collection actually veers more towards romance than sex. Ranging from a light tan (“Abandon”) to an almost orange red (“Willful”), each softly shimmering tint allows for your natural lip color to shine through. It’s a look that feels girlish, yet modern – and remarkably fresh for spring. As a bonus, the lip colors are also moisturizing. So abandon your opaque, matte lipstick as the weather gets warmer, and seal your spring beauty looks with a slightly sheer kiss.
