The lip gloss/lip balm lover in me had to try the new Prada Reflection Glossy Liquid Balms ($45 each, Prada and Nordstrom). I picked up three shades to try and see if they were worth the splurge. These come in similar (if not identical) packaging to the Prada Blurring Micro-Correcting Concealer (demo here from MN5, MN6 + a few more shades, review coming soon).
These balms are ultra smooth, non-sticky and soft, just like a soft balm in glossy form. They have a very light tingling sensation with some padding. They feel like a kiss on the lips.
Pigment varies per shade. Of the three I chose, one is almost clear, but the other two have a nice tint.
P255 Virtual Pink is an ultra-transparent pink (almost clear to me)
B258 Blushware is a beautiful peachy pink (my favorite)
B201 Chocobot is a beautiful soft brown (also love this shade)
Above also looks dressed:
These give the lips those effortless lips but a luxurious look. I love the look and feel of this. I think they also look beautiful applied over a lip liner or one of the Prada lipsticks.
You can discover these now at Prada Beauty and Nordstrom. I also just ordered a pair of the Touch Cream-to-Powder Soft Blur Blushes and can’t wait to put them to the test!
