Editor Quote: "This is by far one of my favorite lipsticks to wear on my casual escapades. When using it for the first time, I was instantly satisfied with the rich pigment and texture. I'm usually a gloss kind of girl, so I don't use matte lippies all that often, but this pick from Prada has me officially converted. It's a great, hydrating option if you're looking for a way to elevate your everyday makeup routine, or add a subtle pop with no makeup." — Naomi Parris, assistant shopping editor
