I have absolutely no clue as to why today’s lipstick is called Prague, it has no correlation to the shade as far as I can tell, but obviously that doesn’t matter at all especially because, this shade is to die for.

First things first; it is almost identical in colour to one of my all time favourite lipsticks ever, MAC Rebel so because of that alone, I already I love it.

The best way I can describe the shade is that it is a purple toned, berry shade and one that I love dearly.

So, you can imagine my excitement when I applied this NYX matte lippy today to find that it was the same gorgeous shade as Rebel, just in a different finish.

This is a soft liquid matte but it’s not too wet which is great as I really don’t like when liquid lippies have a very water-like consistency. Thankfully though, this is slightly creamy and has incredible pigment which makes application so smooth.

The drying time is pretty good, as is the lasting power. It gets a little sticky after drinking and eating but only if your lips are wet, but doesn’t go patchy or flakey which is a major plus.

One of the best things about this challenge so far has been the surprise and joy I still get from trying new lipsticks. I didn’t expect this lippy to be the same shade as Rebel, but I just love that it is.

For that, and the nice consistency that goes with it, this lippy is getting top points today!
