New Favourite Lippy's

Today I took a trip into town and as always I ended up in Superdrug. I fancied trying a lipstick from Barry M, but remembered the reviews I'd seen about them being very drying and as my lips are already prone to dryness, the hassle probably wasn't worth it!

I've always loved Rimmel lipsticks and the colours from the Kate Moss collection stood out to me. I picked up the shade '20', a bright fuchsia and also 'Alarm 170'. Alarm is a bright red and wasn't actually in the Kate Moss collection but it was mixed in with them none the less! 





Both of the lipsticks I think have got cool undertones. I didn't realise when I was buying them (beauty novice over here) but when I got home, put them on and realised that the dreaded 'sweetcorn teeth' as mentioned in my last post, wasn't so much of a problem!

The colours really bright but I love it. It's really easy to apply, just slides on and leaves a lovely finish which isn't too shiny- exactly what I like!




The picture of the bullet of this lipstick isn't exactly true to colour and I found it very hard to get the right lighting to pick up the beautiful red colour! Again, if I'm right, this has got cool undertones which I was happy about as my other red lipsticks seem to not. It's super easy to apply and you only need one sweep across your lips because the colour is so intense! 

Although the colours are pretty bright, they are definitely ones that I will be getting good use out of!

Superdrug have a three for two offer on Rimmel at the moment, so go and check it out and grab yourself a bargain! To be fair, they probably have 'three for two' on loads of their cosmetics, but I was too taken in my these lipsticks to go any further! Haha, you know what it's like giiiirls!

What are your favourite lipsticks at the moment? What are your thoughts on Rimmels lip products? Do tell! :)

Thanks for reading guys!

  4. Those colors look amazing on you! I'm especially loving 'Alarm', I think it'd be a great shade for fall! Oh and I'm a massive fan of Rimmel lipsticks as well, they're so nicely pigmented :)
