Rimmel Kate Moss Matte Lipstick

Price: AED 49 or so depending on where you purchase it from. 

Where: I got mine in the Rimmel stand inside ICONIC in Dubai Mall. I believe that stand no longer exists.

Claims: "The 1st Lipstick collection created by Kate Moss High intensity colour for up to 8 hours. Formula infused with Black Diamonds, reflects light like never before. Captures all the flair, edge and timelessness of Kate’s unique look." Find more information here.

Colour: I got mine in 101 and 103. 101 is a baby pink with a white base that will wash me out if I do not apply some darker shade lip liner. 103 is a more coral pink that will make you appear more tanned. Sometimes I find it hard to pull either one off,so I mix them both and the outcome is more wearable for Asian skin tones like mine. 

SpectrumComes in 15 shades as per the website, but as usual for Dubai stores, the range is never complete.

Application: I find its easier to apply it straight from the tube without using a brush and pat it on with your finger.

Blendability: It can get patchy if you apply too many layers and slide your finger over it.

Texture on skin: Smooth and rough at the same time, almost feels powdery with chunks of product buildup.

Finish: Matte and sometimes drying, especially if your lips are chapped.

Pigmentation: Amazing colour payoff but will become patchy and slide around if too many layers are put on.

Longevity: I would say 2 full hours without eating or drinking much.

Rating: 4/5

Cons: Texture is matte but also powdery or "papery".

Conclusion:I love it because its matte, and because of its amazing colour selection, and most of all its affordable price. The packaging is super cute too!

Look: Here.
