Alicia, my friend, you are a Mind Reader! I have been so confused by all of these new balms, but I wanted one. Like you, I am a fan of 06 in Suqqu. And love that formula. But I ordered Sugared Maple from Prada this morning, and was very unsure. Lisa's Metropolitan has a grey in it, that sucked all the color out of my face. And it didn't condition that well, and didn't have a lot of pigment. I was eyeing the Lancome, but couldn't get that excited. But I had had Sugared Maple in my cart at Sephora since it launched. Didn't want to spend $50 for a Lip Balm. But that color could be my Holy Grail. I Love it on you! So fingers crossed. I needed this video. Thank you so much!💚
I can’t wait for you to try Maple!!! 😍 And I’ll post about Pat’s Divinyls and Astal balms, which were my first hybrid lip products. I completely forgot about those. I think you will love Maple. I picked up Guava because I’m WEAK 😭
@@aliciaarcher LOL! I'm that Bad! I can't tell you how many times I've loved one color and then bought them all. I'm actually practicing consciously not doing that. And I haven't seen those Pat McGrath ones. I'd watch that.
I have Noisette and it is perfect! I tried it on in store without ever hearing about the product before. Immediately bought it because I’ve been looking for my perfect lip color everywhere and this is it!!! Great review
Ooohhh, Prada’s lip products are amazing! I love both the Soft Matte and Hypermatte lipsticks so much. I just got the lip balm in Maple (my son’s cat’s name so it was fate!) and I LOVE IT!! Now I want them all! The Suqqu is different enough for me in formula that there is room for both!! 🥰 I love the feel on my lips more with the Prada and Suqqu over the LE (although I’m glad I have Sweet Fig because that light warm brown is unique to my balms.)
I share your sentiments in regard to Lisa’s balm. Is nice, but I do feel both the Prada and Suqqu lippies feel silkier. And yes, we definitely have room for both 🙆🏽♀️ Especially since the upcoming Autumn collection from Suqqu includes shades that are MEEEEEE 😭🫣
I picked up the Suqqu Moisture Glaze earlier this year because of you! And I’m so happy with it as my everyday lipstick that the Lisa Eldridge balms were an easy save for me. You’ve now made me curious about the Prada haha but I prefer warmer shades so I guess the limited shade range also saves my debit card 😅
Love your channel. I especially enjoy your explanation of products and brushes. I love makeup but my fave are lip products. Didn’t have an interest in the Prada lip balms until now. Thanks for this video.
The thoroughness of your videos are always so, so helpful to an easily overwhelmed mind such as mine. If only you could also help me explain to my wife why these balms are a necessity. 😉 Thank you so much! ❤️
I love all your videos. We are in the same skin skin range and you influence me NOT to buy some products that don’t work for you. 😂 But when you influence me…………. oh man it gets dangerous.
I will definitely try the Prada balms. I don’t mind the French luxury lip taste, so I will be ok with that. I will say the the Lisa balms do have an unusual taste that does wear off but not my favorite. Also, they are sticky for. Long time and my long hair does get stuck on it. The balms do help my lips so I am enjoying them. Thank you!
I can’t pinpoint the Lisa taste, but it’s strange, right? Which is why I prefer the luxe taste, which still not great but more comfortable? You understand 🤣
I purchased the Prada Beauty Balm in the colorless shade 000 last week. I love all their lipsticks but find the Ultramatte formula just a tad bit drying. I use the beauty balm under the Ultramatte lipsticks and it is a miracle worker! Note: I call that feeling you mentioned of being able to taste the smell of a tasteless lip product , “the gack”. I feel like I am trying to gack up a hair ball. I don’t notice it with Prada but I do with Chanel lip products.
It certainly is the gack 🤣 Chanel can do that as well, but I feel that Lisa’s gack is the most odd one out of all of them. And wearing the balm under the hyper matte is a great combo!
darn. I thought I had purchased all the suqqu for the year but those balms for fall. Now I see the Prada. May have to wait for a sale but they are on my list.
I can't wait to purchase all of Prada's Balms, especially the tinted ones. I'm simply being a good girl and waiting for them to be reduced at Selfridges due to being the only place I can purchase from. I don't know if any of Prada's Cosmetics have yet to come to our shores. We have their fragrances here but no make-up. I also want to get more of Rabanne's Lip Balms and Glossy Lipsticks at a cheaper price to Prada. If I have to hang on until the end of year sale, so be it. It's so frustrating when these brands forget all about Australia and New Zealand. Loving the colour from Prada's Balms, which my lips desperately need.🇦🇺💖👩🏼🎨
Australia and New Zealand need the balms! 🤣 I just snagged some Suqqu lip products that got reduced on Selfridges. And I caved and purchased “Portrait” from Prada because Nordstrom hasn’t have it for months, it’s sold out on Bloomingdale’s, and buying it from Selfridges would’ve been the same since the shipping and duty fees brought it the US value 🤣
@@aliciaarcher That's good news about another palette! Can't wait to see it on you. You guys are so lucky with the amount of places to secure these brands. Even Suqqu has to be ordered from Selfridges too. It gets pretty hot down here during Summer and the dry freezing temperatures of Winter don't help my lips at all. When I find a good product, it's more convenient to be able to purchase locally. You wouldn't believe all of the brands that refuse to deliver here, not exactly fair. If you ever see Prada reduced prior to Christmas at Selfridges, please let me know! I pay for yearly shipping from Selfridges, so that takes the sting out of the price, providing you order from there enough. It's very rare to ever get luxury brands reduced here, so I had a ball at Christmas from Selfridges. Even scored Natasha Denona's Biba Palette heavily reduced. By the way, that would be a good palette to pair with Golden, just a thought.💖
Ahhh these are so gorgeous! 🥰I'm so drawn to them but the scent in the Universal balm, which I adored, was far too overpowering for me. I used it up but every time I wore it I felt like I was eating iris flowers. I never had this happen with another scented lip product to this degree. The matte lipstick I have is also scented but doesn't seem to be as much as the balm. Such a shame as the formulation and components are so beautiful. 😑
That’s exactly what it’s like, munching on flowers 😭 But perhaps the taste/scent is not as overwhelming in the tints as they are in the original balm? I’ll have to check my sample 🤔
@@aliciaarcher Right!? Like you, I'm sensitive to fragrance, but this was next-level! I'm curious if there is a difference between the tints and the balms. The lipsticks are still super fragrant but wow, that lip balm! 😛
Colored balms are not worth the money, my opinion. I will use Prada Tonka lipstick and a gloss or balm on top. A other y-tuber showed the nivea berry balm similar to Prada Maple that was very interresting comparison? But the maple Prada-balm looks very nice on you Alicia 💙
You’re absolutely right, and imma simp 🫠 I did try some neat K-Beauty Tint/Balm products that I absolutely love, and will share those soon. I’ll check out the Nivea balm!
Thank you for this video. This was very helpful ❤❤❤❤ Too bad Prada has fragrance, otherwise I might have considered it. I don't understand why beauty brands decide that ur lips need to smell nice 😡 if i wanted to smell nice, I'll use perfume in the places I want lol Oh that taste from LE's baume, I think I figured out what it reminds me of: Nutella! It's coco, not chocolate, but the actual powder taste plus a nut taste = Nutella 😂 Out of curiosity, did you try Isamaya's balms? I'm intrigued because of the colors and i think they don't have a fragrance to them
@@tammysummerswoodbeck1353 Just wishful thinking… I’m trying to speak it into existence. They don’t have a shiny formula yet so I’m hoping that’s coming next.
I learnt a new phrase today ‘S-tier’. Honestly I only watch your videos because you’re a delight. I’m not interested in Parada. I’m boycotting all Loriel products for political reasons.
@@AyannaRoberts Ayanna I appreciate it, as I’m terrible with French 🫠 Thank you for the breakdown, and please don’t hesitate to share more! Because I will miss pronounce something, without fail 😅
Prada is captivating, far more so than the eyeshadow palettes, which is quite an achievement. The lipsticks are simply stunning!
I’ve been thoroughly enjoying their products!
Girl, you are the "balm." 😂
Touché!! 🤣🤣🤣
Hi Alicia, the Prada lip balm enhancers look soo good,that outer lip case is elegance in every way, I enjoyed watching this video. Love Katherine xoxo
Thank you, Katherine! ✨

Thank you for watching, friend!
Lovely shades. Noisette is french (nwahzet) = Hazelnut ❤❤
Honestly every lip shade looks great on you.
Thank you, Sammy 🥰

It was my pleasure, Catherine! Thank you 🥰
Balms away ! Ha ha! Love you Alicia!
Wow! All of those balms have very distinctive colours.
✨🙈 I agree, and have been trying to rotate them in order to give everyone a fair turn 🤣
Thanks for showing swatch comparisons across brands! Super helpful
Happy to share! Thank you for watching 🥰

I really need try the Suquu moisture glaze still, but I'm loving the Maple shade from Prada you shared. I'll need to think on it. 😊
Maple is lovely, and definitely easier to get!
Maple looks beautiful
Thank you! It quickly because a fav!
The fragrance in Prada is definitely a no go. Thanks for this video, it made up my mind! 😃
Happy to share!
thank you for the comparisons! In particular, which is the most moisturising❤
Wow never even thought about buying them because of it just being a balm. Thank you! Now I have to go look at the colors up close. 🥰
I love Prada lipstick. I’m sp going to try Prada lip balm. Thank you for the recommendation

Thanks for demo this I only wear balms and glosses.
They look stunning! Maple was my favorite... having said that, I can't afford it so I won't be buying it unless there's some big discount some day 😅
We’ll keep a lookout!! 👀
Dang, these suit you very well! These were not on my radar but of course I have been influenced.
I may need to try one of the Prada balms the next time Sephora has a sale 😊
I have the Noisette and the Maple and I do love them, darn it, and find myself wishing they came in loads of colours despite the ludicrous price 😅
SAAAAAME 🫣🤣
Love your videos! 👀
Thank you, Sara!
Very nice but I'm still masking and can't make sense of lip products. Maybe someday.
Helpful! Thank you!!
Loved the Pink shade the Best!❤❤
Waiting for Prada Beauty to come to Sephora Canada 🥲
They need to be there NEOW!!!
Thank you for the review. 😊😊
Thank you for watching!

Haven’t heard of these Please. Do tell
