For anyone who was told Didier = Moroccan Rouge, I now have both and while Didier is lovely, it's darker and a bit redder than MR, which leans more plum. The SA told me she thought it was because my tube of MR had oxidized, but the colour looks the same on me as it always has, so I don't know. I do like the format of the smaller lipsticks; it would be nice if they introduced all of them as permanent at some point, given how fast they seem to have sold out. I just feel over the whole GET IT NOW hype of Tom Ford collections. I like the makeup, for the most part, but I hate the frustration of trying to get it. I've been loving all the Charlotte Tilbury I've bought (and it's a lot - LOL!) and it's just so much more accessible. That tends to make the whole experience better ... just my .02.

I feel ya. I didn't chase any of them. While I was picking up full'size I saw women losing their minds over the boys. I have a feeling that the most popular shades will become full-size permanent so I refuse to stress over them.My husband did insist I get Richard which is his name but I refused to get more shades.

I liked Richard but I think it's a repromote of Negligee, which I still have. I was kind of happy I was nowhere near stores on Dec. 26 so I couldn't have participated in the madness even if I'd been tempted.

I do hope that more of his future releases are permanent items, with more available stock.

I just ordered Alejandro too AND Patrick!

Oh Sebastian,you keep calling my name. :sigh:

I got a chance to wear Pavlos over the past three days and Immmmm...not overly impressed. Of the three lipliners I tried it with it looks the best with MAC's 80% which is good cause I've never had anything to wear with it and look good with it. The color just looked subdued and muted on me, muddy as some people say on here. It just isn't vivid or rich. MAC's Runner it is not.

To anybody having issues with UPS tracking from Nordies packages, CS just responded to me. UPS has finally scanned my boys but when you just refresh the tracking page it still shows "Delivered" from the old tracking. My CS rep told me to click on the arrow where it says "Shipment Progress" and it will refresh that section again. Once I do that, I can see all the tracking from the last time that number was used, as well as my package. It did not occur to me to do that (you don't normally have to do that if you have a non-recycled number) so if anyone else is having this same problem you might try that and see if it works!

That's great that they've got them sorted now.

Okay, which one of you sneaky lot ordered the last Richard from TF.com? 'Fess up now!

Lol. I guess I'll just get Alexander and the others I ordered from Saks with my 10%. I wonder if I could snag a Negligee at a CCO?

 

[claudestrawberr]

EllaS on the warm toned reds - have you tried TF Flame? It's a warm toned matte red.

 

[Medgal07]

I got 5 of my TF boy lipsticks & I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE all the shades on. They are all so great that I cannot even pick one favorite.


Julian (x2), James, Flynn, Cooper.

That's awesome Sis....ENJOY!!!!!!

Speaking of Nordies I'm in the midst of a crisis with them. I ordered a few more boys from them on the 23rd as soon as they popped up online. Got a shipping notice on the 24th. Checked the tracking, and the number said the package was already delivered on 12/1/14 in Oklahoma! Um, nope. Not my package. Contacted Nordies CS. She says they're having a problem with UPS using recycled tracking numbers but as soon as my package is scanned for the first time, the tracking should update. Welp, fast forward 4 days and the tracking has still not updated. I have no idea where my package is. Waiting on Nordies to look into it. Why does this have to happen to my packages with LE items?!?!

Call!!!

 

[Medgal07]

Has anyone Alejandro and Luciano ?

They look so similar and I think one of them could be the one I'm looking for (promo pic)


So, so pretty!

Call or Email CS

 

[Medgal07]

Got it!

Apart from the quad I chose Tomas, Michael, Sebastian and Pablo. Sigh - Specktra is very, VERY bad for my wallet! And you're all such charming enablers, so resistance is futile!

I'm so glad you got what you wanted!!!

So, so true!!!

 

[Medgal07]

Just grabbed Alejandro! My first TF lippy!

Yay Naomi. I hope you love it.

 

[Medgal07]

I knew I should of grabbed him when I had the chance! I suppose if anything I could try and track down a Slander or hope it gets repromoted soon.

Slander is a really good one too Naomi!!!

 

[EllaS]

EllaS on the warm toned reds - have you tried TF Flame? It's a warm toned matte red.

Flame has been on my list but I got distracted by all the boys! LOL I haven't seen it in person but from swatches it seems like it's that sort of orange-red that I gravitate toward. I'm definitely going to check it out when I get the chance.

 

[cavala]

No, I've been torn over it.
I don't know if this helps? Christine/Temptalia called it a rosy brown with golden frost. To me, it's rose gold. And does have a bit of a frost which I don't normally like but I don't think it's so excessive that it's a deal breaker. The formula is solid. My lips aren't pigmented so obviously it'll look a bit darker if you have more naturally pigmented lips. It can take on a peach cast in brighter lighting (which I like). These pics were taken in natural light on an overcast day.

ooh...... I shouldn't have looked at your swatches, now I think Peter is waving to me.....and I already got 21!! (so wrong...) They all look good on you!

 

[Medgal07]

Ugh, how frustrating. I feel like most of the time, the package turns up at some point. But there's no way of predicting. I did email CS today about the Lips & Boys package because if it was shipped on the 24th, I thought maybe it should have arrived today and it didn't. Haven't heard back yet. But with the other package that looks like it hasn't been received by UPS, I'll give it another couple of days. I have to laugh though - both "missing" packages are LE makeup. Why can't it happen when I buy socks or something? LOL.

A prior experience made me reach out to CS this time. My package had gone to a totally different state and the recipient of my package called me

So not cool. It was all related to those damned recycled tracking numbers. I didn't want to take any chances that it would happen again.

For real!!!!
