Tom Ford

Luxury

Luxury without compromise.

United States·Founded 2005·by Tom Ford (with Estée Lauder Companies)

Tom Ford Beauty launched in 2005 as a partnership between designer Tom Ford and Estée Lauder Companies, debuting with private-blend fragrances before expanding into makeup in 2011 with the Lip Color lipstick range — 50 shades at launch, each in heavy, gold-engraved bullets that set a new bar for prestige luxury packaging. Ford had previously led creative direction at Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent before launching his eponymous label.

In 2022, Estée Lauder acquired the Tom Ford brand outright for $2.8 billion in the company's largest acquisition ever, securing Tom Ford Beauty's place in the luxury portfolio alongside La Mer and Jo Malone. The Lip Color line remains the franchise hero, alongside the Eye Color Quad eyeshadow palettes, Shade and Illuminate complexion duo, and Soleil Bronzing Powder. Tom Ford Beauty is consistently the most-aspirational prestige lipstick brand cited in dupe content — heavy formulas, ultra-pigmented payoff, sticker prices that double Charlotte Tilbury and triple drugstore.
