RIMMEL LASTING FINISH KATE LIPSTICKS AND SINGLE PAN SHADOW

Hi everyone,

            There are something's that Rimmel has released that are very hit and miss in my past experience. However I thought I would share some recent Rimmel items I have tried that I am really liking at the moment.

Starting with the eyes I have been using for a couple of months now the mascara called "Volume Flash Scandal Eyes" and its the water proof formula in BLACK.


The things I like about this mascara are that it coats the lashes well and does add volume. I like the big bushy traditional wand with it. I find it defines the lashes nicely too. My only minor complaint with this mascara is when its wet it tends to leave a lot of dots on the upper eyelid, but a q-tip will clean it up easily but its annoying if you have already completed your eyeshadow for the day. Even though it is waterproof it is fairly easy to remove at days end.
You get 12ml/.41fl oz for about $7.

Then in a gift bag of cosmetics I received for a donation I made I got the "Glam'Eyes" mono single pan eyeshadow in 100 GLAM ICE.

 

I don't really own any Rimmel shadows but this could be the game changer. I will say this shadow is great for highlighting the brow bone or inner corner and illuminates the eye beautifully. I find it feels very silky and powdery but in a good way. I didn't notice any real fall out issues. As you can see it is insanely pigmented and I would recommend this product to anyone who is looking for a good highlight shadow. There is 2.4g/.085oz of product for about $6 and come in 9 shades.

In that same gift bag of goodies I also got one of the "Lasting Finish" lipsticks by Kate. It comes in the black tube and is the colour 04 which is a very deep plum purple. It actually almost looks black in the tube and rather intimidating but once on your lips its not as dark and a lot more enjoyable.

 
Sadly it would seem they have eliminated this colour from the line. I feel this is a wearable colour and to see it on my lips take a look on my Instagram page for my lips of the day pic. Instagram link is in the side bar. I am sure Mac and various other brands carry something similar if you like daring bold colours such as this.
4g/.14oz for around $8
 
There is also the matte lasting finish collection by Kate as well and since they were on sale I bought two colours. First is 102 which I really wish they would give the lipsticks a name instead "SO RIMMEL IF YOU READ THIS CONSIDER MAKING THAT SMALL CHANGE PLEASE."
Any way this colour to me is the perfect every day matte pink and since I bought it I have used it everyday for my standard look.

I find these lipsticks wear beautifully and last for quite a while on the lip before needing a touch up. I liked it so much that's why I went back to get this second colour which is 110 it is a very bright red watermelon tone.

In the pictures it captures with a strong orange tone. This is a great colour for summer a must have for lovers of bright colour and budget friendly cosmetics.
I also really like the packaging for this particular collection of lipsticks, they look quite nice standing there.
Also 10 shades available in the matte finish
 
If you like these colours head to a store near you. You can also check out these collections on the website at
 
Follow me on INSTAGRAM as well to see daily lip and eye looks and randomness from my life of makeup.
 
ENJOY THE DAY FROM MakeUp'Asylum and
 
STAY BEAUTIFUL
