Tom Ford Boys & Girls Lip Color 2g in 08 Mario is part of Tom Ford's celebrated travel-size lipstick collection — each shade named after a person from the designer's circle. Mario is a slightly warm-toned, medium-dark mauve with a semi-matte finish, designed for a polished, grown-up lip in a sleek clutch-friendly format that slides easily into a small bag.
About Tom Ford
Tom Ford is an American luxury fashion and beauty house founded by designer Tom Ford in 2005, with its beauty line developed under the Estée Lauder Companies umbrella.

- Pigment-rich formula — strong colour pay-off in a single sweep
- Semi-matte finish — refined, dimensional finish between matte and satin
- Comfortable feel — wears smoothly without dragging or feeling heavy
- Iconic engraved black-and-gold bullet — the brand's signature presentation in miniature
- Curated colour story — each shade named after a person in Tom Ford's life
Shade
08 Mario is a slightly warm-toned, medium-dark mauve with a semi-matte finish — a refined, grown-up mauve that flatters a wide range of skin tones. The warm undertone makes it particularly flattering on neutral and warm complexions, and the semi-matte finish keeps the shade looking dimensional rather than flat.
Who it's for
This lipstick suits anyone who wants the luxury feel of Tom Ford in a travel-friendly format — particularly those building a curated collection of mini-bullets and fans of refined mauve shades. Mario's refined character makes it a versatile choice for everyday wear, evenings out and gifting, especially as a stocking-filler or thank-you gift at the luxury end.
How to apply
- Exfoliate the lips gently and apply a thin layer of balm; blot any excess
- Apply directly from the slim bullet, starting at the centre of the lips and working outwards
- For more precision, use a small lip brush to define the lip line first
- Press lips together gently to even out the colour
- Build a second layer for a fuller, longer-lasting finish
- Refresh through the day; the slim bullet is built for handbag carry
