Rimmel Stay Matte Liquid Mousse Foundation Review

Dia daoibh!

Today I have something quite exciting in the form of a foundation. It's Rimmel London's newest edition Stay Matte Liquid Mousse Foundation.

A Feather-light, liquid mousse that blends flawlessly for natural-looking skin and all day shine control. Silky smooth formula for a perfectly matte, baby-soft finish Lightweight texture won’t feel heavy or greasy Minimises the appearance of pores

It comes in 6 shades:

010 Light Porcelain

100 Ivory

103 True Ivory

200 Soft Beige

201 Classic Beige

400 Natural Beige

Considering it is called "liquid mousse" I was very surprised to see how solid and thick the foundation was when squeezed out of the tube! Nevertheless, it applied seamlessly and felt quite airy and soft on the face. It has a medium coverage which covered my slight redness around my nose and cheeks.

After 5 hours of wear I noticed some shine coming though by my nose and chin. I then decided to apply a powder on top and this made a huge difference so I would highly recommend to still use your powder to achieve maximum matte-ness!

Over all I like the foundation. It's not my favourite offering from Rimmel but if you're on the hunt for a low budget matte Foundation, this is the one for you!

It's priced at €7.95 from Boots >HERE< and £5.99 >HERE< and available in-stores now.

Pssssst!!! Current offer in Boots for Rimmel Cosmetics as of 07/0913 ➜ Buy 1 get 2nd half price on selected cosmetics ;)

Slán!

Hi Ladies.

So you might have heard that Kate Moss has teamed forces again with Rimmel but this time to launch her very own line of lipsticks.

There are 7 shades to chose from, which I hear have been hand chosen by herself, and here they are

All colours are available exclusively from Boots now and are retailing at €6.95 each, but if you buy now there is a 3 for 2 offer on!!!

I love the packaging of these. Simple yet edgy. Instantly they reminded me of the MAC Lady Gaga Lipsticks being black and red and having the signature.

Here is a closer look at 5 shades that I bought.

As you can see, even out of these five there are some nudes, brights, daytime wearable and fun night time colours (even though I have no problem wearing brights/darks during the day) but basically, I would say there is something for everyone which is great to see. The formulation of the lipsticks themselves is staying on track with most of the rest of Rimmels lipsticks. They are very easy to apply and blend and they are nicely moisturing with a touch of shine.I hope these swatches can help you make up your mind if you're thinking of treating yourself! What colours are your favourites?
