Rimmel Lasting Finish Matte Lipstick by Kate Moss in 107 - Review

Rimmel Lasting Finish Matte Lipstick by Kate Moss in 107 £5.49

I have had this lipstick a while now but I've only worn it a few times as it's not an every day lipstick for me. I love the colour and I would say it suits me but it's too much for my pale skin during daylight! For evening however, it's perfect! This is the second shade that I have from the range. The other is 101, which is much more suitable for everyday wear and is perfect for my skin tone. I love the packaging of these lipsticks. They look a lot more expensive that £5.49 and they are very sturdy. The formula is moisturising and soft, which means it glides onto the lips evenly and effortlessly. When first applied it has a sheen but once this is dry you are left with a matte colour, which is highly pigmented. I would recommend exfoliating your lips before hand and applying a lip balm to help the application of the lipstick. Chapped lips with hints of matte lipstick is not a good look! This shade is almost like a lip stain and stays on your lips a few hours. This can be a good thing depending on your opinion but it means you don't have to keep applying throughout the day/night! If you want a sheen, you could always apply a clear lip gloss over the top. There are 5 shades in total in this collection and hopefully more will be released. I definitely recommend the Lasting Finish Matte Lipsticks as the formula and staying power are fantastic. 

Have you tried any shades from the Kate Moss collection? Do you like the look of this shade?

Topshop Lipstick in Rumour Has It - Review

Topshop Lipstick in Rumour Has It £8

I only have two Topshop lipsticks but I am a huge fan. The first shade I bought is Mink, which is very similar to Rumour Has It but is much darker. Topshop describes Rumour Has It as a 'dusty rose' shade, which as descriptions go, I love! It is a pinky brown nude shade, which is perfect for the day. The shade is buildable meaning you can create a completely different look for the evening. One coat of this is actually very similar to my natural lip colour, it just emphasises my lips. The finish of the lipstick is matte but it applies smoothly onto the lips. I wouldn't say it was a completely matte finish, maybe just semi-matte. It is very moisturising and nourishing on the lips and not at all drying. If you're not a fan of matte lipsticks, you can apply a gloss on top for a high shine look. I really like the vanilla scent of Topshop lipsticks, they remind me of MAC lipsticks. I've said it before but I HATE the usual lipstick smell! The lipstick lasts 2 - 3 hours before it needs reapplying which isn't bad.

Do you have any Topshop lipsticks? Which shade should I get from Topshop next?
