Kate Moss Lasting Finish Lipstick



I picked up this lipstick in Boots the other day, its from the spring collection of the Kate Moss Lasting Finish lipstick range for Rimmel. To be honest I don't usually look at Rimmel lipsticks as I have found them to easily wear off in the past, but as soon as I swatched this one I was having it!

The shade I chose was shade 20 which I have seen described as a 'bright barbie pink' but on me it leans more towards a fuschia darker toned pink which I absolutely love. It is a highly pigmented, matte colour without being drying. When its on it feels like you have nothing on your lips at all and lasted a good 5 hours without being topped up. Pretty good for a drugstore lippy. The lipstick retails at £5.49 but is on offer at Boots and Superdrug for just £3.99. There are over 20 shades in the lasting finish range so you really are spoilt for choice and at £3.99 you really cant complain if you lose it on a drunken night out!!!!

Glamour Freebies!

I'm sure most people are aware that Glamour magazine is giving away mini's of; The Porefessional, That Gal and Bad Gal with their July issue. I was eagerly awaiting the release of the magazine for weeks and finally, the day came, 31st May. I got up super early and hurried down to the Asda to pick up one of each sample. At just £2 each it really is a bargain, especially when you consider that you can, in effect, get a full size Porefessional for just £6!!!



Whilst on Beauty Box Swappers that night, I found out that 'That Gal' was much harder to find than the other two. I'm now wishing I'd picked up a few more as there was a fair few on the shelf. As you can see they are decent sized samples with the tubes being 7.5ml and the mascara being 4.0g, so they really are worth £2, hopefully there will be a few left if your quick!!!
