I think there are meant to be fifteen shades in the new range but I had
about six to choose from and after a swatching session decided on #700 Naughty
Nude. Now I’m no nude lipstick fan but I find this to be quite a pink shade! Rimmel
describe this as a no compromise all in one lipstick that provides long lasting,
high impact colour, comfort, moisture and wear. All in all, I would have to
agree!
The staying power is great with this lipstick, I’ve applied it at 8 o’clock
the last two mornings and it has stayed on my lips through copious water and
tea drinking to around 12 o’clock. I’ll then top it up with a bit of Carmex lip
balm to extend the wear a little further as the colour which starts out opaque wears
off very evenly and leaves a tint behind!
I find the Rimmel lipstick scent so nostalgic; I think I maybe got
given the end of one of my mum or aunts lipsticks when I was younger so it
always reminds me of that! I personally like the smell but if you are sensitive
to scents this may not be for you!
The lipstick has a slanted bullet unlike the usual Kate Moss etc.
versions which have more of a tip. I find I have to take a bit more care when
putting on this lipstick just to make sure I don’t go horribly over the lines
but it’s nothing major!
These are priced at £6.99 which is slightly more than the Lasting
Finish and Moisture Renew lipsticks so if you were thinking of getting one I
would definitely wait to get them on offer, Boots currently has buy one get
second half price on their makeup!
I think Cheeky Coral could be next on my list! Have you tried these
lipsticks? What was the last lipstick you bought?
