Tom Ford Lip Color in Scarlet Rouge is a saturated, medium-dark red — a moderately warm-toned classic that has become one of Tom Ford's most-requested signature shades. The creamy formula glides on smoothly to deliver pure, opaque colour with a refined satin-natural finish, and is engineered to stay vivid through the day without drying out the lips.
About Tom Ford Beauty
Tom Ford launched his eponymous luxury fashion and beauty line in 2005 after a decade reshaping Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent. Tom Ford Beauty, developed in partnership with Estée Lauder, is recognised as a benchmark for luxury makeup, and the Lip Color range remains the brand's most iconic product. Scarlet Rouge sits with Cherry Lush and Ruby Rush as one of the line's hero red shades.

Who it's for
Scarlet Rouge suits anyone who loves a sophisticated, classic red — wearable in the office with restrained makeup and dramatic with a smoky eye in the evening. The warm undertone flatters most skin tones, particularly warm and neutral undertones, and the creamy finish is forgiving on lips that are not perfectly smooth.
How to use
- Exfoliate and balm the lips first — a creamy red looks best on smooth, hydrated lips.
- For sharp definition, outline the lips with a matching red liner and fill in lightly.
- Apply Lip Color directly from the bullet, starting at the centre of the upper lip and working outward.
- Blot lightly with a tissue and apply a second layer for the most saturated finish and longest wear.
