Rimmel London Kate Moss Lasting Finish Matte Lipsticks..♥
Hey beauts!
About two weeks ago, I decided to add some drugstore lipsticks to my collection. I'm sure you've seen numerous blogs about the new Rimmel London Lasting Finish lipstick collection by Kate Moss. Her new line is a range of five matte lipsticks but to try them out, I picked the three shades that I liked most. I've never tried any lipsticks from her previous collections and from what I can remember, I don't think I've ever tried Rimmel lipsticks either! I may take a break from purchasing MAC lipsticks because I find that most of them really dry out my lips and they're left feeling uncomfortable and sometimes sore for days. I don't know if anyone else gets this or maybe I have some sort of allergy to them? I'm going to give lower end brands a chance but if we're talking high end, I do find the YSL Rouge Volupte ones moisturising although they don't have a matte finish.
I did order these online from ASOS (currently on sale for £3.84!!) so I picked my shades based on online swatches and therefore couldn't really tell how the texture was and they didn't appear matte in pictures. After owning them, I can now tell you that they don't have a true matte finish (well, compared to let's say Ruby Woo) and personally I would describe them as semi-matte. They have a slight sheen but less of a sheen than let's say MACs Satin finishes. Even though they are said to be matte, I find them a lot more comfortable to wear at first application in comparison to matte lipsticks from MAC.
For anyone who is interested in purchasing but is not sure of the shade they want to buy, I've swatched the three that I own and hopefully it will aid someone in colour selection. If texture/finish is very important to you, then I guess it's better that you check these out in store for yourself!
Did anyone purchase the new Kate Moss lipsticks? If so, which shades did you get? Which shade is your favourite from the range?
