Rimmel London Moisture Renew Lipstick

I wanted to take a moment to talk about the Rimmel London Moisture Renew Lipstick in As You Want Victoria. I was recently sent this lipstick to try in a Voxbox from Influenster.



Packaging-
The packaging is very nice with a sleek purple And silver tubing. The It's very secure and I had no trouble keeping the lipstick in my purse.

Color-
As You Want Victoria is a vibrant fuchsia pink. The color it's very opaque and provides rich saturation with just one swipe. It reminds me of M.A.C. Pleasure Bomb (limited edition matte lipstick) and Rimmel London's Show Off Lip Lacquer in Apocalyptic.

Performance-
This lipstick is super duper moisturizing!
I really enjoyed how my lips felt when wearing this lipstick. It was moisturizing without feeling sticky or goopy on the lips. The one downside is that because the lipstick is so moisturizing it transfers quite easily and requires multiple re-applications throughout the day, especially after eating or drinking. That being said with such rich color and comfort of wear I will be trying other colors in this range.


Where to purchase-
Rimmel London currently has 18 shades available in this range . These lipsticks along with other Rimmel London products can be purchased at Ulta and major drug stores nationwide.

Price- $6.79-$6.99

Pros:
Moisturizing
Vibrant color
Large range of shades
Easily accessible
Affordable

Cons:
Easy transfer
Requires multiple reapplications

Happy New Year!!

Yeah, yeah....I know I'm late as hell, LOL.

Well, I had a wonderful time visiting my sis in Florida (my nephew is so cute). We all hung out, ate, drank, talked crap, and alladat family type stuff. I had so much of my mom's good cooking, and that in conjunction with multiple starbucks runs = +6lbs on the scale *frowns*.

I did lots of shopping for my fam, and managed to not get a (whole) suitcase of stuff for myself.

Haul:

Mac MSF Natural in dark
Mac Ruby Woo Lipstick
Mac Blush (can't remember the darn name)
Purple flexi rods
Large perm rods
Aphogee 2 min reconstructor
Creme of Nature argan oil serum
Bobby pins and hair pins
Trimming shears
Creme of Nature Argan oil shampoo
Kinky Curly Curling Custard
Eco Styler Gel

*I STILL wasn't able to find a foundation that I liked.

Tis the Season



To be jolly, Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la!!




I just lurrrve this time of year. Nothing beats cozying up by the fireplace with my boo, sipping punch de creme or ginger bear, and getting together with my fam. *Long sigh*, 2 more weeks and I'm heading home! I can't wait to see my family, cook, eat, and shop (not that I need to do any more of the latter). Seriously though, how can I go to the States and not stock up? I may need and extra suitcase to haul all this stuff back.




*looks for "wish list" steno pad*

  1. New foundation because Mac SFF is not the business on my skin




  2. Perfume
