This is the first time I’ve been so impressed by a luxury fashion designer branching into the Beauty world. Ever since I saw the Prada lipsticks up close and personal, I’ve been obsessed. They’ve nailed the design and packaging, echoeing the brands iconic gold and silver facets and signature triangle. Most importantly, the textures and look of the makeup are stunning…on and off the face.
The Prada Monochrome Hyper Matte and Soft Matte lipsticks are available in a variety of shades and I personally think they’ve nailed the nude range perfectly! As a brown skin girl, it’s difficult to find the right type of nudes and these are great for any skintone. My personal favorite is Hyper Matte lipstick in shade 077 Arancio; a burnt orange, that looks stunning on tanned skin. The Hyper Matte range offers a comfortable matte finish and the Soft Matte range offers a more diffused, luminous matte finish. The triangle-shaped bullet lipstick ensures easy application and follows the brands design aesthetic perfectly.
Having used a variety of shades regularly, I can happily tell you that they last so well throughout the day. I’ve not felt a need to re-apply through the day and my lips have felt hydrated and smooth throughout. I’ve recently been mixing some of the shades together and they blend so well, regardless of whether you mix the Hyper Matte and Soft Matte together.
Would I buy other Prada Beauty makeup now that I’ve tried these? Absolutely. It’s the best transition of fashion to beauty I’ve seen to date.
