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. 

Spectrum: Comes 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.
