When Kate Moss released her first set of lipsticks for Rimmel I was significantly underwhelmed. There was nothing special about the range and no shade that jumped out at me and made me think ‘I must have you now!!’ However I feel very differently about the new matte range that they have just released. I stood in Boots for a long time before deciding which ones to buy and even then I couldn’t narrow it down to any less than three (thank god for 3 for 2!) I also picked up 107 and 110.
101 is a light pink shade with blue tones (great for teeth whitening). It goes on easily and the colour pigmentation is fantastic. I put it next to my Mac Creme Cup and it is slightly pinker (I’ve heard people compare it to snob) but it will make a fantastic shade for both day and night. In terms of it’s matte-ness, I would say there is a slight gloss but nothing too shiny.
I can see this line being a great alternative to people who don’t want to splash out on Mac. I’ve worn this shade over the weekend and it was pretty average in terms of staying power; around two and a half hours but like I said the pigmentation is excellent. I also really like the packaging. It makes a change from classic black.
The Kate Moss for Rimmel Lipsticks are available for £5.49 each but keep an eye out for Boots 3 for 2, barginous!!
Have you tried these lipsticks. What is your favourite shade?
