Review: Rimmel Lasting Finishing Matte Lipstick

Hi Guys!!

I have a review for you today! It's the Rimmel Lasting Finishing Matte Lipstick.. if you saw from the title. I wasn't planning at all to buy this.. (ha! what a joke.. when do I ever plan my purchases) Anyways, Me and my friend were wandering around Priceline and we saw that this was a buy 1 get 1 free offer! LIKE HELL YEAH PLEASE!! This lipstick usually retails for $12.95 but I got it for $6.50.. $6.47 (if you want to be accurate). So me and my friend got the same shade for like half the price, what a bargain! 


So let's continue on with the review, shall we?




As  I mentioned before I got the shade 107 which is a gorgeous deep berry-red with cool undertones! Personally I think I prefer more of a cool undertone red because I have "yellow-ee" asian skin!


The packaging is super adorable right! That clean yet sleek matte red packaging, with Kate Moss signature on the tube. Love it! When I first opened the tube it had a nice berry scent, I like it! For me, the smell didn't put me off at all but it was such a nice smell omg

Swatch of the lipstick
 As you can see its a very pigmented and opaque. 
I only used one swatch too! Am-a-zing!

More Swatches.
This lipstick gives a little tint/stain to your lips.
Like Smudging with fingers and waters and everything IT JUST STAYS THERE!!
I fully was scrubbing it in the shower and it wouldn't just come off -_-
but that just means it has great staying power right?!


Verdict
Pros:
  • Super Pigmented
  • Gorgeous Colour
  • Very hydrating 
  • Velvet-y finish
  • Colour can be built up
  • Colour is awesome for winter 8)
  • Affordable! 

Cons:
  • Not completely matte, but more of a velvet/satin finish
  • I was hoping for a more berry shade on my lips.. But it turned out to be a cool tone red for me :( 

Anyways thanks for reading and until next time,
p.s. have you tried this lipstick? Or lipsticks with this similar shade? :)

  4. I would buy this alone just for the packaging lol It's a really pretty shade and I have a bad habit of collecting lipsticks in all shades of red. This is so so so pretty though I like it lol

    1. Hi Josee! It actually wasn't really drying like I thought it would be, I found it fairly moisturising compared to other matte lipsticks I own
