Nude lips are a great makeup look that you can never get tired of wearing.  Being neutral, they can go with practically anything without worrying about clashing with your outfit or other cosmetics like Rimmel’s Lasting Finish by Kate Nude Collection of lipsticks that PR sent for this review.

This new drugstore line has 10 shades from chalky flesh tones to deep berry and brown infused nudes. The ones that showed up were #42 (light peach nude), #45 (light pink-nude), #48 (dark berry-nude), and #49 (deep coffee-nude).

Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation (Classic Ivory, Soft Beige) Review + Swatches!

With a new season approaching, you might be thinking of updating your cosmetics with fresh products like the new Rimmel Match Perfection Foundations I was sent.  The line of 14 shades has broad spectrum SPF 20 protection with a 24-hour moisture complex built into the formula to provide that coveted luminous look.  

Unlike the European version, this drugstore liquid foundation does not have a pump dispenser once you lift that cap.  The colors I tried were Classic Ivory (light beige with a hint of pink) that was a nice shade for my fair warm complexion and Soft Beige (slightly darker warm beige), which would work more for contouring in my case.

Rimmel Moisture Renew Universal Transparent Lip Liner Review

Colorless lip liners can save you money since there is no need to match them to lip products.


Bleeding lipstick or runaway lip gloss can happen when you neglect the extra step of lip liner. You could solve this preventable problem with a nude color that is close in shade to your natural lips.  Still, the most ideal method is matching the color of liner to the shade of lipstick or gloss that you’re wearing.  Yet, this could amount to buying quite a few different lip liners, which can run into money unless you went colorless like the one I tried from Rimmel with their Moisture Renew Universal Transparent Lip Liner.

In the quest to look younger or wake up a dull complexion, illuminators can help with that goal.  Products like Rimmel London’s Good to Glow Color Highlighters that I sampled lately do add that touch of instant radiance to get skin beaming.  

These liquid illuminator/highlighters come in 001 Notting Hill Glow (pink-white), 002 Piccadilly Glow (coral) and 003 Soho Glow (golden tan).  They all are shimmery with the exception of 001 Notting Hill Glow, which has more obvious, larger sparkles.  It also has a whitish cast that seems to dominate the pink once it is applied that was a bit over the top for me.

Starting on the left is 001 Notting Hill Glow, 002 Piccadilly Glow and ending with 003 Soho Glow on the right.

The texture is too not thick or too thin, but a wonderful one that comes out easily that you can build up, being sheer or play upon to mix with your foundation like with my favorite one, 003 Soho Glow for more facial radiance or use alone.

Furthermore, these highlighters wear quite well.  I don’t know how true this will be for someone with oily skin since mine is dry, but this product held its own until I took it off later in the day.

The next time you shop for Rimmel products check out their Good to Glow Color Highlighters.

Review: Rimmel Brow This Way Brow Kits (Medium Brown and Dark Brown)

Rimmel Brow This Way Brow Kits 

Since brows are an important part of your face as they frame the eyes, you need them
perfectly groomed instead of unkempt if you intend to maximize your beauty potential.  Rimmel’s new Brow This Way Brow Kit, which I had a chance to sample offers a wonderful, inexpensive solution for brow maintenance.

PR sent me the medium brown and dark brown kits to try out. Inside each, you find a brow wax, brow shadow, spooley brush and double-ended angled brush.

Here is how I used it.  First, I took the spooley brush to comb my brows in shape first, then some of the tinted wax to set the shape. This brush, along with the wax, already started to whip my brows in shape. Next, I used the side of the angled brush to carefully add some powder to fill in some color where I needed.
  
The powder filled in sparse areas very nicely while lasting through the day.  I did find the dark-brown kit better suited my coloring with my umber brown brows than the medium brown.  

For $3.99, I liked how this Rimmel Brow This Way Brow Kit worked taming and beautifying my brows.  If you’re brows need a beauty boost, I suggest visit your drugstore or where you find Rimmel products and do pick one up.
