As you guys know by now, I am a Tom Ford watcher with detailed breakdowns on Tom Ford products. However, anytime I think he can’t surprise me, he goes and does something like launching Lip Lacquer Extreme.

And that price is extreme too LOL

Tom Ford Lip Lacquer in Loveless

This colour is called Loveless. It reminds me of Havana by NYX – an ultra-bright violet that is definitely for women who want to stand out. It has a wet look to it but it comes in a pearlised texture and formula.

Is it worth it??

Tom Ford Lip Lacquer in Universal Appeal

{Price is $54 in the US and £40 in the UK, you can purchase it here}

Tom Ford is one of those brands whose prices are clear from the jump. We all know the prices are sky-high with the clouds. I previously purchased a lipstick from Tom Ford. While I loved the texture of the lipstick, I understand why many people become upset when they hear about prices that are high for cosmetics. The Tom Ford Lip Lacquer is another one that I had and I was thinking today about whether its’ price matches with the quality.

What you need to know about Tom Ford Lip Lacquer

• It’s really shiny and glossy: This is not a lip gloss for wallflowers. And yes Tom, this is a lip gloss even with an extravagant label like lacquer. I find it goes on better if you have primed your lips before hand.
• There isn’t that much product: Tom Ford as a brand like to invest in packaging and how the product looks on the outside. In terms of value for money, this is not it because there is not a lot of product in the tube itself.
• It works better on top of lipstick: I actually prefer the Tom Ford Lip Lacquer as an amplifier to a lipstick that corresponds with the colour that you have chosen as opposed to wearing it on its own. Why? It actually is a bit thin and like a wafer if you just wear it on its’ own.

I think the Tom Ford lipstick is better value for money than the Lip Lacquer. However, the Lip Lacquer’s colour selection is intense and vibrant. Make a decision based on what is more important to you – value for money vs quality.
