Tom Ford Lip Color Matte ($50.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a satin to matte formula with six permanent shades (and two limited edition shades). The formula is good overall with a few shades that could use some improvement and only one that was a miss from my experience. The texture has a more velvety, smooth consistency, so they don’t have some of the dryness often associated with matte formulas (though most of them aren’t fully matte in finish when first applied). Most of them are neither drying nor hydrating with none being unbearably drying. The formula has a subtle vanilla scent but no discernible taste.
