Rimmel London Provocalips 16 hr Kiss Proof Lip Colour Review+ Swatches


Hey guys! Lipstains and liquid lipsticks is one of the things that is trending in the beauty world. I stumbled upon the Rimmel London Provocalips 16hr Kiss Proof Lip Colour at the drugstore and decided to give it a try. I selected wearable lip colors for everyday use. Hope you find this review helpful and enjoy! :)



The Rimmel London 16 Hr Kiss Proof Lip Colour retails for about $6.99. According to Rimmel London this product is kiss proof, food proof high impact endless color.


The directions say to apply the lip color to your lips and keep the lips apart for 60 seconds until the product sets.
Then apply the top coat to lock in the color, moisture, and add shine. 





Swatches!
Play With Fire- is an intense red lipstick . Such a beautiful red color. If you are looking  for that perfect red lipstick then this is the one. This is more of a classic red lipstick. 
Kiss Fatal -is berry mauve color. 
Heart Breaker is a softer tone red with orange undertones.
Make your move- is a pinky brown nude color. 


Did it live up to the claim?

Yes!

Review/Thoughts

This is the best kiss proof lipstick that I have ever tried from a drugstore. It stays on your lips when you are done eating and the intensity of the color does not fade until about 7 hrs of wear. The topcoat does give your lips a nice shine, but the shine does fade over a few hours. Throughout the day I ate and drank and the lipstick was still going strong on my lips. I could give plenty of smooches to my children and not have to worry painting their cheeks with lipstick. I demonstrated to my kids that the lipstick does not come off and they were amazed. lol. It is a bit drying, but that is to be expected when it comes to kiss proof or liquid lipsticks. I just added a bit of gloss. However, when I did add the gloss, I noticed that the color did transfer. I guess the gloss took away the top coat from the lipstick. The Rimmel London Provocalips 16 Hr Proof Lip Colour is a great alternative from some of the more expensive high end liquid lipsticks. I highly recommend this product. It lives up to the claims and won't burn a hole in your pockets. 

You can purchase this at your local drugstore. I purchased these items from Walgreens.

Rimmel London Lasting Finish Lipstick In Bordeaux Review


Hello lovelies! One of the many reason why I love the Fall and Winter months is the dark toned lipsticks ranging from Red to Dark Purple. My favorite shade out of that color range is a nice dark wine colored lipstick. I was looking for iswine colored lipstick and was happy when I found the Rimmel London Lasting Finish Lipstick in Bordeaux.

The Rimmel London Lasting Finish Lipstick in Bordeaux retails at $4.99. 


Pros:
Moisturizing
Color
Affordable
Smell


Cons: 
Can settle in the fine lines of your lips.

Photos:





I just love this shade it is perfect to wear this time of year. This lipstick is great to wear with a simple eye makeup look . This shade of lipstick add a sultriness to any makeup look.


What I love about this lipstick is that it applies smoothly and it is moisturizing on the lips. This lipstick is not a matte shade, but has a bit of a shine to it. 

Final Thoughts:

     Over All, I love this lipstick and the shade. I love how it applies and has decent staying power. After a awhile, you might want to apply lipgloss or a lip balm over it. For the most part this lipstick is more moisturizing than most lipsticks that I have tried. If you are looking for a wine colored lipstick, then I recommend the Rimmel London Lasting Finish Lipstick In Bordeaux.

You can find this lipstick at your local Target and drug stores.

Hope you enjoyed this review and see you in my next blog post lovelies.

Rimmel London BB Cream Review

                

Hello lovelies! I hope all is well you :). Today I will be reviewing the Rimmel London BB Cream. This is my first time purchasing a bb cream. I know it's hard to believe since I am a makeup/beauty junkie. :) I remember when bb creams broke out into the beauty scene about a year or two ago, so I wanted to see what all the rave is about. 


     Rimmel London BB Cream Retails at $5.99 (Prices vary in Different stores). According to Rimmel, the Rimmel London BB Cream is a 9n1 Skin Perfecting Super Makeup. It is suppose to conceal,moisturize,mattifies,brighten,minimize pores,covers,smooths and protect.

     
                             
                                                                                 Pros:
                                                                       Thick and not runny
                                                                        SPF 25 Sunscreen
                                                                       Natural looking
                                                                           Light weight
                                                                   Drys to a Matte finish
                                                                          Moisturizing
                                                                             Coverage             


                                                                               Cons:
                                                                         Transfers easily
                                                                          Staying Power
                                                                   A tad dark for my skin complexion
                                                                     
    


                 


     Over All, I really like the Rimmel London BB Cream. After I applied onto my face I put a translucent powder on top to keep the oils away. The Rimmel London BB Cream covers up my redness in my cheeks really well and the staying power is decent, but it doesn't last all day. Also, I think the shade was a tad dark for my skin tone. They don't have much shades to choose from.After wearing Rimmel London BB Cream for three hours, everything still looked good. The redness was still concealed as well as my blemishes. After six hours, is when I could see the redness in my cheeks peek through and I looked a bit shiny in my t zones. What I love about this BB cream is that is does not appear to look cakey on your face which I think it a plus. For my first bb cream, I really like it. I will let you guys know if I change my mind once I purchase other bb creams. For now, this works for me and is convenient to just pop on your face and head right out the door . If you are looking for a more natural looking makeup, I think bb creams are great for that.  They are also great if you do not want to wear heavy foundation. I think Rimmel London BB Cream is light weight on your face and depending on your skin condition, you may or may not need to apply extra amount. I have been using this for the past two weeks and I am pleased with my purchase. If you are looking for an affordable bb cream I recommend the Rimmel London BB Cream.
