Tom Ford Havoc, Stinger, Trance Lip Sparks Reviews & Swatches

Havoc

Tom Ford Beauty Havoc Lip Spark ($55.00 for 0.1 oz.) is a deep red with warm undertones and flecks of copper and gold sparkle strewn throughout. It had medium to semi-opaque pigmentation (at best) with a very emollient, lightly slippery consistency that made it difficult to apply the color evenly. The product settled into my lip lines and was particularly splotch along the inner areas of my lips. It wore well for four and a half hours and was hydrating over time.

Formula Overview

$55.00/0.1 oz. - $550.00 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to "look" like "loose glitter on lips" with "uniform payoff" and "multidimensional color" paired with an "emollient" feel. The pigmentation varied from medium to semi-opaque that adhered evenly and fairly smoothly to my lips. The consistency varied from emollient without any grit/texture from the glittery bits to slightly noticeable during application but didn't feel gritty or rough to me while worn (for any of the shades).

The texture had slip but was lightweight and on the thinner side, so it did not feel slippery. Only one shade was problematic--Surge--which clumped up and was sheerer compared to the other shades. They lasted between four and six hours and were lightly hydrating over time. They had a hint of vanilla scent but no discernible taste.

Stinger

Tom Ford Beauty Stinger Lip Spark ($55.00 for 0.1 oz.) is a medium-dark pink with strong, warm undertones and a sparkling, metallic sheen. It had medium to semi-opaque color coverage that adhered fairly evenly without getting into my lip lines–it was one of the better shades in the formula. The consistency was fairly smooth with just a touch of the sparkle coming through with a moderately emollient, but lightweight and thinner, feel as it glided across my lips. It stayed on well for four hours and was moisturizing while worn.

Trance

Tom Ford Beauty Trance Lip Spark ($55.00 for 0.1 oz.) is a medium-dark purple with cool undertones and an iridescent blue sparkle. It applied horrifically: splotchy, uneven, clumpy, and settled into my lip lines. It was absolutely appalling as a standalone lip color, and at the price point with the claims they make (“explosive color” — as in color that goes on wherever it pleases). It had semi-sheer coverage with a very emollient consistency that succumbed to all the pitfalls of more slippery lipstick textures. It lasted for three hours and was hydrating over time.

P.S. — These shades appear to be available outside of the US only, despite the US website actually referencing several shades (that did not launch here), but Tom Ford’s PR team confirmed that they’re not expected to launch in the US at this time.
