They are mini, but they are actually cheaper if you compare what you paid, and their weight, to the full size lipstick price and weight!
I would have preferred a different style of launch but it's a nice price for the size, you can try different shades in the brand/formula and I'm really not going to finish a lipstick anytime soon :-D
Thank you for that! Darn, I had thought they had a better return policy. I knew I should have gotten them off Nordstrom. I just got dazzled by the GWP box. 10% email coupon, and 12% ebates! Haha, lesson learned. Hope I like them! I still haven't gotten my shipping notification even though I supposedly got free 2-day shipping.
YAY! I'm glad you do! I'd love to see some swatches of Alexander when you get the chance!
Though I do get the concept, The mini size somehow puts me off. Though I understand the concept of not being able to use a lippie completely, I personally prefer having a regular sized one instead of few mini ones! you know for me its like having few samplers but not the actual product (Yeah I am totally cray cray)
Girlllll you have excited me for Wes!!! Cant wait to try it for myself later! Your swatch looks 1000000000000x better than what I saw on T!
Oh Keep Luciano!! Its pretty on you!! Well I like both the shades on you!!!After class today, I thought: "The hell with it, I'm going to try them on my lips." And wouldn't you know, I completely misjudged them! I reaaaalllly LOVE Luciano on my lips. The hand swatch didn't impress me too much, but I am glad I decided to lip-swatch. Wes isn't as much of a love, because it's pretty similar to BD, but it has such a pretty extra dimension to it from the shine and micro shimmer (I think I spotted some in the bullet!)

Both photos are taken facing an open window! Yay natural-ish lighting!
I will!
Wes is so beautiful on you! Love your blue eyes!
Yay!! Swatches C!! I am supposed to get Giacomo and Richard today!!!
lol
:eyelove:Just as I was leaving for class, my order form TF arrived! I ran back inside and gently swatched them on my hand. I'm a bit disappointed, unfortunately. On my skin, Wes looks basically identical to Black Dahlia except a different finish. A little more sheer and obviously glossy (and maybe a TINY bit darker, I pressed harder on my BD swatch than Wes, though) Luciano is a pretty red, nice and smooth, but looks a lot like other reds I have. Luciano will either be gifted to my sister, who loves reds, or kept as a travel lippie or for my small purse when I need touch ups. Depends on how they swatch on the lips. Over the next few days, Peter, Alejandro, Patrick, Julian, & Alexander will be coming in the mail. Luckily those are from NM so if I don't like them... returns will be much easier. I think? I've never tried to return makeup to Neiman's. I definitely have learned my lesson about buying blind. I got caught up in the hype of the limited release. You got me this time, Tom Ford! But not again!L-to-R: Wes, Black Dahlia, Luciano.

I don't think T had swatches of Julian up yet. It was one of the 3 she didn't get due to backorder.

Totally agree with you! They do look a lot smaller than 0.7oz though.. but if that's what it is, it really is a slightly better deal than the $50 for 0.1oz. I've never finished a single lipstick and this way I get to try and have more.They are mini, but they are actually cheaper if you compare what you paid, and their weight, to the full size lipstick price and weight!
Oh good, I guess I confused it with another one when I was browsing thru them. I must be losing it.
