Price: $53
Product Description:
Tom ford innovation meets lip artistry with a dual lip colour and shaping tool. On one end, the slim and sleek pencil features a lip shaper to enhance and define lips. On the opposite end is a full coverage, slim stick lip colour concealed inside.
How to Apply:
Use the lighter shade of lip shaper together with the deeper lip colour to add dimension, shape and create an ombre effect to your lips, from subtle contour to high definition contrast.
Packaging:
The lip contour duo is packaged in a metallic brown coloured lip contour pencil. The pencil has a golden band with Tom Ford and TF inscribed in a golden font on the cap. This lip contour pencil has a retractable lip liner on the top and the lipstick bullet is concealed at the bottom. The lip contour pencil works on the pull open and shut mechanism. Both sides close firmly, making the packaging travel-friendly. However, one has to be careful since the chances of damaging the product are there. This duo lip contour pencil comes packaged in a self-designed black coloured cardboard box. This box has details inscribed in a golden coloured font. It looks a bit bulky, but can be carried in bags and purses for on the go touch-ups.

My Experience with Tom Ford Lip Contour Duo Make Me:

I love buying and experimenting with different products and brands. This time, I picked up Tom Ford Lip Contour Duo Make Me. It’s expensive, but then it’s from Tom Ford and is a two-in-one product. This means, we get a lip definer and a lip colour in this duo. Tom Ford Lip Contour Duo features an innovative two in one lip colour design; on one side is the lip liner which helps enhance and define the lips and the other side has an intensely pigmented lip colour which gives full coverage to the lips.

Make Me has a shimmery rosy pink lip liner and a dark crushed plum coloured lipstick. Two contrasting shades – light and dark – to give an ombré effect to the lips. The lip liner is a beautiful rosy pink shade infused with shimmer. The shimmer is less than subtle and hardly noticeable on the lips. The lip liner tip is soft textured and nicely pigmented. I use this lip shaper to define and give shape to my lip contour area and fill my lips. It gives a matte finish to my lips. But it is advisable that you use this lip definer on exfoliated lips. This lip liner tends to make my lips dry and patchy. It does not spread, smudge, fade or transfer, though. The lasting power is extremely good and the color needs to be removed with a makeup remover.

However, the lip liner’s tip is delicate and I have to be careful whilst using since it tends to break easily. The lip liner is several shades lighter than the lipstick, which means it can contour my lips for a subtle ombre effect. However, this ombre effect does not work in my case since the darker shade of the lip colour overlaps the lighter shade of the lip liner. The lip colour is deeply pigmented, dark and a bold plum shade. The formula is satiny and feels light on the lips. It gives a shiny finish to my lips. It does not spread or smudge during applying, but tends to transfer.

This color is intensely pigmented, hence one layer gives an opaque finish to my pigmented lips. I first contour my lips using the lip shaper and then fill in the lip colour. I have to be very careful while doing so. The lip colour when worn over the lip liner, loses the ombre effect it is meant to give. The lasting power of the lip colour is extremely good, around eight hours. It mildly lightens after a light meal and some snacks. It fades away after a heavy and oily meal, leaving a stain; this stain needs to be removed with a makeup remover.

The lip colour does not dry out or make my lips patchy when used alone. To reapply this lip colour, it’s better to remove the whole lipstick and then reapply since it leaves an obvious stain on the lips. This lip colour can be used for evening outings and parties. It’s a bold and absolutely stunning plummy shade for winters. Both products can be used together or individually, as desired.
