Review: Rimmel Lasting Finish Lipstick

















 I had been wanting to try this lipstick for a while, but just never bought it. I went into boots the other day and noticed that it had been reduced from £4.99 to £3.99 so i though it was a perfect chance to buy it! I got it at Coral In Gold which was a lovely orange colour and as you can see from the more close up shot of it it has a shine to it which is nice, I swatched it and on my hand it looked so nice. When I got home i tried it on my lips and it didn't look at all like what it looked like when i swatched it! which is very unusual (i will put a picture up of it on my lips but due to bad weather and chapped lips i can't put on up at the moment, don't worry its on my to do list!). I can't really explain the colour it looked on my lips, but i just didn't like it! One thing i can say about this product is it smells divine!!! Like candyfloss. me and my family have being trying to pinpoint the smell without any luck (we are not a weird family that spend our time smelling lipsticks) so candyfloss is the closest smell to it i can think of. Anyway after trying this lipstick again i still didn't like it, so i decided to put some clear lipstick over the top and that made it look so much better than it looked before!! It brought out the shine and just smoothed it over my lips much more nicely. Overall the lipstick by itself wasn't a good choice at all, but with a bit of lip gloss it really transforms it into something wearable!




I DO HAVE A OOTD TO PUT UP! IT WILL BE UP SOON! Also i hope the image quality it better i have just got a new camera!!
