Anyone with a hint of interest in fashion, beauty or cinema knows Tom Ford. From vanity-worthy fragrances, cult films, fabulous ready-to-wear and richly pigmented makeup - everything Ford touches turns to pure, unadulterated gold. Naturally, he’s gone and done it again, this time making us weak at the knees with a new drop of dreamily iridescent lip colours.

As part of his Extrême makeup series, the Lip Lacquer Extrême collection features eight continuous wear shades of liquid metal matte finishes. Fade-resistant, full-coverage, featherlight - each lip colour leaves your pout with a brushed chrome finish that glistens with a two-tone prismatic pearl pigments. While there are shades you would expect to gravitate towards such as orange-red Touch and nudey-pink Cameo, there are also hues we didn’t know we wanted but must-have-now - like the pigmented purple Skintight.

It’s like Ford knew exactly what we wanted in our next lipstick before we knew ourselves. But, of course he did.
