Rimmel London - Kate Moss Fall 2012 Lipstick
Why hello there! Today I will be reviewing Rimmel London Lasting Finish Matte by Kate Moss 2012 fall collection lipstick. I bought this lipstick at Walmart for $4.63 in the gorgeous color 109, a coral orange lipstick. The fall 2012 collection offers this lipstick in 10 beautiful shades. Online the product claims: 8-hour wear with exclusive Black Diamond Pigment Complex and reflects light like never before, bringing color depth to a whole new intensity.
The packinag comes in a nice sleek tube in a beautiful red color with the top of the cap slanted with the Rimmel symbol and Kate Moss' signature on the side. The color is matte and the application is AWESOME! It feels like you are putting a lip balm on because it is so creamy! There is a sheen when you first apply but with a couple more layers or in time it will turn into a matte color. I recommend exfiolating your lips before applying just to make it look better.
For a drugstore lipstick, compared to the rest of the lipsticks that people rave about, the Lasting Finish Matte line has a very nice quality lipstick. This line has a variety of different colors of pinks and purples not just red like the past line. The lipstick does not feel drying and lasts for several hours and does stain my lips as well. Eating and drinking will fade the color, so reapplying would be necessary unless it is a darker color and you truly want the true color. OH and this lipstick smells GREAT by the way! It has a fruity but sort of normal lipstick smell to it but nothing obnoxious.
Here are my lips nude and bare on top, yes they are pretty dry looking so the matte lipstick on would make the color cling onto the cracks of my lips right? It did do that on the first application I applied but after exfoliating and then applying chapstick before the lipstick, it felt great and stayed on for several hours. It is so comfortable and easy to apply. If you mess up, it is easy to clean up with your fingers and fix.
The flash is very bright in this picture and does not show the color very well. Overall I like the Kate Moss lipstick compared to the Wet n Wild lipstick that I previously reviewed. The Kate Moss is more creamy and applies easily and does not feel too liquid-ie like Wet n Wild's Fergie line. It is not shiny, and messy when I make a mistake. Totally recommend and would like to purchase more shades!

Revlon ColorStay Foundation
Today I will be reviewing the Revlon Colorstay Foundation.
I bought this at Walgreens for $11.99 but you can purchase this at CVS, Ulta, Walmart, pretty much all stores you can find cosmetics.
This line has 20 different shades from combination/oily skin or normal/dry skin.
The product itself offers that it wears up to 24-hours, gives a flawless look and lightweight feel. It also offers an SPF of 6. The packaging is in glass with a 1.0 Fl. Oz foundation, which is an average amount of foundations that any line has to offer. It does not have a pump, the cap screws off.
The shade I got was in 110 Ivory for combination/oily skin, which I do have both. I have an oily t-zone with sometimes dry patches around my mouth or nose. I, myself do have acne, but majority of them are acne scars now, and uneven skin tone as well.
The coverage on this foundation is medium to full but also build-able I do not wear my foundation 24-hours a day so I would not know if it does last that long, what I can tell you is that it does last me from 6am-9pm. Waking up and getting ready for class till the end of my other class. The consistency of this foundation can be a little watery so I do recommend shaking it up before applying. The foundation does smell a little odd eh whatever. The finish however is matte.
Some people say that this foundation can get cakey because it is matte and you have to blend quickly, but I never have that problem. I dot areas of my face with foundation and blend it either with my beauty sponge or my fingers.
This foundation can act as a concealer and foundation. The more you build up the more you will cover. The foundation to me does not feel cakey and I usually only put one layer on but going back with a small amount to conceal extra blemishes and scars peeping out. I do apply powder after the application to reduce any oil throughout the day. Although I do apply powder, I feel that my face does get oily, so I use blotting sheets as well.
Overall this foundation has great coverage and I tend to use this foundation if I that my skin needs more coverage I will turn to this. The greater part of this foundation is that it does not break me out which I really enjoy! It is long lasting, good shade range, and has SPF.
