Alright, let me tell you about my experience with Tom Ford’s Red Fucking Fabulous. Buckle up, it’s a ride.
So, I’d been hearing all the hype about this lipstick for ages. You know how it is, everyone raves about something, and you’re like, “Yeah, yeah, whatever.” But the name alone, right? “Fucking Fabulous.” I was intrigued. I mean, who doesn’t want to feel a little fucking fabulous?
First off, finding it was a mission. Tom Ford ain’t exactly cheap or readily available everywhere. I finally tracked it down at a fancy department store. The packaging, man, it’s sleek, heavy, and screams luxury. You definitely feel like you’re holding something special.
I swatched it on my hand – bam! – instant love. The color is this deep, rich, almost-brownish red. Not a bright, in-your-face red, but a sophisticated, “I know what I’m doing” kind of red. The texture was creamy and felt amazing on my skin.
Okay, so I bought it. Let’s get to the actual application. I prepped my lips with some balm first, because ain’t nobody got time for dry, cracked lips. Then, I carefully applied the lipstick straight from the tube. The pigment is intense, so you don’t need a ton. One swipe and you’re good to go. I blotted it with a tissue to get rid of any excess and evened it out.
The color payoff is insane. It’s like a velvety blanket of red on your lips. And the staying power? Damn near legendary. I wore it to a dinner party, ate a greasy burger (don’t judge!), and it barely budged. I’m serious, I was impressed.
But here’s the thing. This lipstick isn’t for the faint of heart. It’s bold. It’s dramatic. You gotta own it. I felt like a total badass wearing it. It boosted my confidence like crazy. I was strutting around like I owned the place.
Now, the downsides. It’s expensive. No getting around that. And it can transfer, so be mindful of your teeth. But honestly, for the color, the feel, and the confidence boost, I think it’s worth the splurge. I mean, it makes me feel… well, fucking fabulous.
Would I buy it again? Hell yeah. I’m already planning my next Tom Ford lipstick purchase. This Red Fucking Fabulous is definitely a staple in my makeup bag now. Go get yourself some, you deserve it.
