Hey everybody! I’m not sure if you know, but I have become obsessed with lipsticks lately. I ranted and raved about the Kate Moss Long Lasting Lipstick 111, which is a deep red. It was my first lipstick and I love it.
So! On a recent trip back home, I decided to hit up the local Target and buy lipsticks. I went with the attention to get a bright colour, a wine colour and a plum colour. I went straight to Rimmel because I loved how the lipstick by Kate Moss was matte and the price is pretty fair ($6).
Although the colour pay off is great, it is long lasting and quite creamy when you apply it, I did find one major flaw.
It’s drying. It dries my lips out to the point where I feel like my lips are almost granulated directly after I apply the lipstick. I have also tried moisturizing directly before applying the lipstick, but that doesn’t help. It somehow manages to ball up on my lips and just make my face feel instantly pasty.
I’ll keep wearing the lipstick because I do enjoy the colour especially for the summer season, but I won’t be wearing it out to an event where I’d have to reapply. I don’t like the feeling of caking on the creamy matte lipstick.
