Hey guys, got a review for you today, and it's from one of my favourite brands, I love so many of Rimmel's products, ( including their stay matte powder which I know many others love) and now their moisture renew lipstick is a firm favourite.
Unfortunately the shade I'm reviewing here is no longer sold, I bought this one on fragrance direct many many months ago but I will link 2 other similar shades from the range at the end of this post.
This lipstick glides on like a beauty! It's very opaque, I use about 2 layers for full colour, and it's just beautiful. As well as good coverage it has great staying power, this lasts at least 3 hours without eating or drinking.
Shades similar :
Rose Passion and
Diva Red
I need to buy some more of these now :)
~~ Do you own any shades of these? and what do you think of them :)
I recently bought this on an offer along with the maybelline falsies mascara, and unlike most people I'm more of an eyes person than lips because I think you can be a bit more creative with eyes, however lately a few lip products have been sneaking into my makeup collection...
I really like this colour (coral tonic) I think it's very summery, and it's not too bright, bright lipsticks do not suit me! It's a pinky coral but appears slightly darker than in the tube, I really like the packaging, the way the coloured lid just 'snaps' into place.
I'd say the staying power is okay, depending on eating/drinking, at least 2 hours.
Overall I think it's a great summer lip product and I will be wearing it a lot :)
~~what's your favourite summer lip product? Do you own any colour sensational lipsticks?
Since I discovered fragrance direct about a month ago, I have become obsessed, the pricing, delivery time etc. if you didn't know, Fragrance direct is a website that sells fragrances and beauty products, very cheaply! They can do this because there's no "middle man" they sell it straight from the manufacturers.
So on with the haul..
Left to right- NYC Matte me crazy, Revlon Charasmatic, Revlon Cloud, Essie Bond with whomever, Rimmel Princess Pink and NYC matte me crazy again.
4 of these are presents, so only 2 are mine and that explains why I have 2 of matte me crazy haha.
I've wanted a pastel purple for a long time and I couldn't help but "slip" this in the basket when I saw the essie one! I've also wanted a Matte top coat for a while since the Rimmel one came out but they stopped selling it in store, so saw this and got it too.
A lot of people are obsessed with lipsticks but I like to focus more on my eyes, and I don't own any blending brushes or an angled one! I've already got a royal eyeshadow brush which is pretty good so thought is give these a try.
Finally I got a Rimmel moisture renew lipstick as I've heard good things about these and I got it in the colour "Berry Queen".
P.S if you use the code 206VC you get an extra 5% off.
Have you bought anything from fragrance direct before?
I went into superdrug to get the maybelline falsies flash lash affect mascara as I haven't tried it yet! And when I went in there they have an offer on most of the maybelline products for 2 for £10 which is great as the mascara alone is £8 so technically you either spend £2 on something else or £5 each :) I decided to get a colour sensational lipstick with it in the colour coral tonic.
This offer is available on most mascaras, lipsticks, BB creams, eyeliner and their foundation (I think - maybe a few others)
Review to come on both :)
~~What do you think of maybelline products? I don't own many myself.
