Rimmel Haul!

Happy Easter everyone! Here's a little treat for you beautiful people, I got my hands on the latest Rimmel treats: Lash Accelerator Mascara, Apocalips Lip Lacquer and Wake Me Up Foundation!


I have to say this has been my favourite Rimmel haul in a while. Reviews are down below:

First off APOCALIPS!
I actually love this soo much. I think I might get a few more shades because this is a fairly subtle shade, maybe next time I'll buy one that makes my lips pop. The shade I am currently wearing is "Celestial". I must admit I wasn't too excited when I heard about this but after reading a few reviews I had to get my hands on it. The colours in the range aren't for the faint hearted but they really do make your lips look out of this world! The finish is very nice as well and lasts for quite a while. Do put a lip balm first or else it will look flaky and unattractive. 



Now to the Lash Accelerator!
Rimmel's Scandaleyes slightly disappointed me so I was a bit on edge when choosing between another Apocalips colour or to try out Rimmel's new mascara. I have to say that I do like this mascara. It's probably one of those that I will use on a day to day basis because as a friend said, it looked very natural and does what it says on the tin, lengthen my lashes.

And finally, Wake Me Up foundation!
I have a confession to make... this is the first time I've ever bought or used a foundation, so I'm a noob when it comes to foundation ok. As a BB cream addict, my mother thought this foundation would be a great start. It's light, easy to apply (though I wish it was packaged with a pump, it has a sort of stick that picks up the foundation) and the finish isn't too bad and leaves my skin looking dewy (yay).
I have fairly dry skin and what I like about this is that it keeps my skin feeling moisturised without making my skin oily. Again, I think I'll be using this quite often.

UPDATE: Turns out there is a pump on the Wake Me Up foundation bottle... I just broke it when I first opened it ;-;

Review: Rimmel 1000 Kisses Lip Tint

Hi guys! So I did say I will review these beautiful lip tints for you all. I currently use shades 110 "Stay Very Berry" and 130 "Don't Stop Blushing". I bought shade 110 a few months ago and I loved it so much I had to buy it again in my boxing day haul because I've almost used it up.

My favourite thing about this is how long it lasts, from 7am in the morning till 9pm when I wash my make up off, the colour is still quite vivid. 

I use shade 110 daily for school whereas shade 130 is a very vibrant red colour, which I didn't actually realise until after I bought it. The lip stain is applied via a felt tip pen which gives off the scent of strawberries (YAAAAY), the balm adds gloss, moisture and adds intensity to the colour of your lip tint.
On the left is Stay Very Berry and on the right is Don't Stop Blushing.

Here are my best pouts.. so from the far left, we have a blank canvas, in the middle, we have shade 110 and finally, shade 130.

On the left I am wearing Stay Very Berry and on the right I am wearing Don't Stop Blushing. 


Thanks for stopping by today!
