Cutting Edge with Royality

9 Jun

This post is about Rimmel Lasting Finish Lipstick. They are good. There, I said it.

I havent been a big fan of Rimmel. I dont know, somehow they had interesting blush and eyeshadow colors but quality was…well, you know. I tried out some of their foundations when I was in my teen years but I also wasnt very pleased.

But their lipsticks are something. I have only three and I will show you two of them today.

085 Royality is muted purple/pink/mauve shade, I cant be 100% sure what exactly is this color called because it has strong both pink and purple undertones (depending on light) while being somehow close to neutral. I tried to take a realistic photo but my camera isnt very friendly with purple. It can be worn on daily basis.

120 Cutting Edge is dark, dark berry. It is actually a mix of dark red and dark purple. Very elegant. If you are tired of classic red lips in some occasions, try something like this.

To tell a word or two about the texture and all that stuff….

They are moisturizing, non drying and feel comfortable on lips. There is also a nice scent, I would say something like candy. It makes me hungry :D

They also last reasonably long, about 4 hours with no touch-ups needed.

For the price of 35kn (6,5$) you will get more than you pay for. 9/10 from moi.

Do you have any Rimmel lipsticks? Your favorites? Tell me.

    Nemam jos nista od njih, jer se ne susrecem s Rimmelom gotovo nigdje, pa uvijek zaboravim da postoji. :D
    Cula sam puno hvale na njihov racun, pa pretpostavljam da su ruzevi uistinu dobri. Za probu cu sljedeci put uzeti par njih, bas da vidim kakvi su. :)
