I’ve a roundup evaluation of some new Prada Magnificence launches. They simply launched a brand new Gentle Glowing Lip Oil Stick ($50 every) and Gentle Glowing Highlighter Powder ($90 every). I even have some fast swatches of the Dimensions Multi-Impact Eyeshadow Palettes ($85 every) I’ve examined in in the present day’s publish. All of the gadgets are refillable. I picked mine up from Nordstrom however you may also discover the launches at Sephora and Prada Magnificence.
Gentle Glowing Lip Oil Stick
There are 4 shades of the Prada Gentle Glowing Lip Oil Stick obtainable within the US (I believe different international locations might need just a few extra shades). I picked up the tinted ones and love the components. They’re clean, snug, hydrating and really feel extremely luxurious on the lips. The pigment could be very sheer although and provides the lips a barely there tint. You’ll be able to undoubtedly carry out the colour with a coordinating lip pencil, however on their very own they’re so sheer, I don’t know that the dearth of pigment justifies the steep price ticket. The components can be very delicate. Whereas I didn’t expertise any breakage because of the softness, they’ve shifted from the bottom a bit of after utility so there are dents on the edges of the lip balm from the packaging.
- U016 is a lightweight pink
- U018 can be a lightweight pink, however barely deeper
- U019 is a delicate brown
I’m pleased with the splurges though given my darker lip tone I might have skipped U016 if I had recognized how sheer it might be on my lips. In case you want one thing with extra pigment the Hydrating Lip Balm has higher colour payoff (I actually just like the Shade Guava). Or I might advocate choosing any of the YSL tinted balms just like the Sweet Glow or Sweet Glaze (additionally nonetheless spendy however not fairly as costly).
Since these are balmy oils and sheer the lasting energy isn’t going to be lengthy with these however they’re straightforward to reapply with no mirror.
Gentle Glowing Highlighter Powder
I did a ballot on whether or not or not you have been within the new Gentle Glowing Highlighter Powders and most of you have been turned off by the steep price ticket. I do suppose the worth is outrageous however I used to be actually impressed with these highlighters. The colours are simply SO stunning with the right quantity of glow. I like all three and suppose the feel and pigment is SO gorgeous, I almost forgot concerning the sticker shock after swatching these.

I’m nonetheless combating some texture and dry patches on my face so it did emphasize my texture a bit of bit, however with a lighter hand and good mixing I actually love how they appear on the pores and skin. Are they value $90? I don’t suppose so, however I’m nonetheless very pleased with the splurge. Under sporting the next lip and cheek combos, additionally sporting:
Gentle Glowing Highlighter Shade 1 Champagne and Glowing Lip Oil Stick 016 Rose, fast word, I utilized the highlighter with a heavier hand to point out the colour, however for regular make-up put on I might mix this with a daily blush or bronzer and apply the highlighter simply as a softer spotlight

They remind me of the eyeshadows from Surratt and Cle de Peau with the delicate powdery virtually creamy texture. I believe the colour mixtures are SO stunning however I’ve very dry eyelids so this sort of texture tends to look dry on my eyes if I pack the colour on. Every palette has a superb mixture of finishes. I believe the tones are stunning and properly thought out.
I had such excessive hopes for Peony however the colours match my pores and skin tone so intently I can’t see any colour payoff on my eyes. Pansy exhibits up higher however nonetheless offers a really pure eye look. Primula has the most effective colour payoff. I actually wished to like not less than certainly one of these for an on a regular basis look however within the time I’ve had them I haven’t reached for very a lot.
Primarily based on the suggestions I’ve acquired from most of you it seems I’m within the minority with my eyelid space being dry, so in case your eyelids are regular or oily I believe these ought to put on very properly on you.
