Not sure if this has been mentioned today but it looks like they are live on Nordstrom right now - http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/tom-ford-lips-boys-lip-color/3913545
Thanks! I shouldn't be getting any more, but it's so hard to stop thinking about it! Wonder if the ones I want will still be there for double points on the 25th...

Thanks for the heads-up! Just grabbed Julian. I can't believe I ended up having 21 boys! What a sin!

Although I have to say, I find it quite off-putting how they have been releasing these boys not as scheduled. If they end up sold out again on 26th when they're supposed to officially be released, that would really be a bummer for those who miss it simply because they believe what TF told the press!

My sentiments exactly. Honestly, it is a real concern. Remember they launched on TF on Thanksgiving day instead of Black Friday. Sooo not fair. And it wasn't even like midnight Thanksgiving night which would technically be Black Friday either. It was up during the day. So I guess there is no surprise that another vendor released these early. But this is REAL early. This whole Lips and Boys Collection launch is not only on par with MAC's debacles but it might surpass it. A freshly launched collection with items on backorder for a month is inexcusable.

And this is what is keeping me hesitant about ordering online.

It was shady. There was such a BF hype and yet it went up the day before on TF. I can't order from TF but I bet there were disappointed customers.

I would like a really pretty pink nude. I can't decide between Beau, Addison & Flynn ???
I was struggling with this too. Beau and Addison are both part of the perm collection (Beau is Blush Nude and Addison is Pink Dusk). Because those are still available in full size, I decided to try Flynn which I think is more a light-medium pink. Beau/Blush Nude is more like a pink beige and Addison/Pink Dusk seems cooler and mauvier to me.

Still glad I picked up Alejandro and Luciano. They're different enough on me to warrant both!

I just got Rory despite T's review. I never thought I'd wear it on its own anyway - to me it's clearly a topper. But I totally agree that they should have done a better job clarifying the different finishes and formulations of these lipsticks and how they can be worn. Because the differences in formulas are really jarring - it's hard not to have a negative reaction when you're expecting one thing and you get something totally different.

I just remembered this link. Have you seen it? She's wearing Flynn, Peter and Beau. Personally I think Flynn and Peter are the standouts. http://mylucitedreams.com/2014/12/01/tom-ford-lips-boys-in-flynn-peter-and-beau/

I love both of those & I do not have any from the perm collection. I will probably end up with both of them ;)

I agree. I probably will too. But at least since they're part of the permanent line we can pretend to have some willpower and hold off buying them for a minute

There is one other Boy I was on the fence about that is a repromote of a discontinued color - it's Holden a.k.a. Vanilla Suede. A very light nude. Probably too light for me on its own, but certainly mixable with other colors and would be unique to my collection. But I wasn't sure. Have you heard anything about that one?
