The Lips & Boys collection may be made up of 50 different shades of colors, but that isn't to say that it is at all inspired by the 'Fifty Shades of Grey' book or film. Instead, each color is a tribute to important men in Tom Ford's life from his first crush Addison to his best friend Rory and his husband Richard.
Of the 50 shades, the Lips & Boys collection boasts 36 that are new. The remaining 14 hues are from previous and current seasons. Refinery29 writes, "The ingredients are a combination of soma-seed extract, Brazilian murumuru butter, and chamomile flower oil. And, they all have the Tom Ford seal of approval: The designer says he tries on each one himself to see how it feels before signing off."
