I've gotta also say I wasn't feelin the presentation from TF. At all. gucci had great presentation of product, Beautylish does, so does Net-a-Porter. I thought TF's kinda sucked. The NM box presentation looks nice.
Yes, the neimans case is quite nice.

thanks medgal im blushing I loveeee it it kinda reminds me of mac modern mandarin yayyy blush twins how do u like it medgal
I'm a TF blush addict----I think they're insane. So pigmented and easy to blend and wear----and I love applying it
with the Tf cheek brush which is super luxe!!! I think I like the blush even better than then lip products.

If you ordered from Saks on Monday but haven't received a shipping confirmation e-mail yet, go check your order on their website! I checked and found out that my Lips and Boys lippie was cancelled because they ran out of stock even though it let me order on the site :(
That sucks!!!

Thank you, Med! I'm sure - they will be pretty in the spring and summer (when my lips are in a better condition...).

I quickly tried all on:

- Patrick - a bit in the Flamingo territory (haven't compared though), nice but sheer
- Luca - I think this highly pearlized formula reminds me more of a glaze than a frost (I like glazes), but more "loose" and comfortable on lips
- Matthew - this is my favorite, a yellow based coral
Sounds like really good choices for you MRV!!!

For those still considering Peter and William: http://girlzippy.blogspot.sg/2014/12/tom-ford-lips-boys-peter-william.html?m=1 Interesting that the "re-promote" (William/ Pink Dune) is not an exact replica of the original. Maybe I shall swatch Richard later and compare this with Negligee.

Yikes. T wrote that she swatched the repromotes alongside the listed shades to confirm. Please let us know what you think after swatching :)

Oh gosh, Peter definitely looks interesting! I can't wait to try him out tomorrow. Though she said it leans mauve, he swatch kind of looks like a shimmery nude/beige. Hopefully it doesn't pull that way on my lips! We'll see. :)

Hmm. I'm a little bummed William isn't an exact match for Pink Dune. I did think it looked different in the lip swatch on TF.com but I figured I couldn't go by that alone. It's still pretty, but since I missed out on Pink Dune I was hoping for an exact match. Oh well. Peter looks very cool though.

Here are T's arm swatches of William and Pink Dune

William: http://www.temptalia.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/tomford_william003.jpg
Pink Dune: http://www.temptalia.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/tomford_02pinkdune003.jpg


Hard to tell. On my computer they look close but it does still look like William is peachier.

Does anyone who owns Julian also own any of the NARS Audacious lipsticks? It looks like it could be similar to Anna and I'm trying to decide if I should get it. (I declared my hopping back on the mini train yesterday and here I go trying to get more...)

That is too funny you asked that! The minute I swatched Julian, I thought "Oh, this is close to Anna!" I swatched it on my hand, and nope, different. I just tried to take a comparison photo for you... but the shitty yellow indoor lighting is killing me! Anna is definitely darker, and much more opaque. That's not saying that Julian is sheer... but it's something about the Nars Formula versus TF's.

Richard is a tad redder than Negligee, but the difference is not as perceptible as William vs Pink Dune. It is very hard to capture the subtle difference between Richard and Negligee, but yes, there is a difference, albeit small. These are not the best photos (using iPhone 6+) but from an angle, you can see that Richard has more red tones while Negligee has more yellow/orange:

I typed Richard and Negligee so many times that I became amused wondering what Mr Ford would think of Mr Buckley in a negligee. :p

lol Thanks for swatching! I nearly bought Negligee when it launched. Looking at swatches it seems like it should be a common, unremarkable shade but it ends up really making an impression! Richard is a nice option to have to either not pay full price for Negligee or having missed the shade completely.

See, my brother's name is Richard so this is giving me a whole other mental image I'm not very comfortable with LOL

Thanks for responding! I think I'm going to pre-order it at NM. I just need to decide which one should be my third or, you know, IF there should even be a third.
