Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick Collection.

Hello!

Today i'm going to talk about a lipstick which I actaully bought a couple of weeks ago. I've waited until now to talk about it because it needed a bit of road-testing and it took me a while to make up my mind about how I felt about it. You've probably gathered from the title that i'm talking about the new Kate Moss lipstick collection from Rimmel.

The collection itself consists of seven shades ranging from a daytime nude to a bright coral, red and pink, retailing at £5.49 each. Seeing as I am addicted to nude lipsticks and not being brave enough to go for anything brighter or more vampy, I bought number 3.

Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick No. 3

 

Good Points: As you can see from the swatch, the lipstick is quite a safe colour, but is very pigmented meaning it leaves you with quite an insense colour. It's quite a creamy formula so it goes on nicely and feels quite smooth. I think one oft he best things about these lipsticks is the smell! They smell absolutely gorgeous, kind of floral without being too overpowering.

Bad Points: Even though the formula is creamy I find that after a while it can dry out my lips quite a lot. This might just be me, but I find if I put on some chapstick or something beforehand it pretty much fixes this problem. Also, i've found that the wear isn't that great and I have to keep reapplying all day.

Overall I really really like this lipstick, especially for the price, and i'm thinking about investing in some more daring colours!

Thank you for reading :) hope you're well

Re-Ombred Hair.


Hello again!
I'm feeling a bit bad seeing as i havn't posted in a while.. but i have an excuse! I've been super busy AND it was my eighteenth birthday last week!


In an amongst all of the birthday celebrations I have managed to find time to re-ombre my hair. I first ombred it a couple of months or so ago because i was bored of my natural hair colour but didn't completely want to change it. Anyway, I felt it was time for a touch up. I went a bit overboard and left the bleach on for a bit longer than necessary, haha! Luckily it didn't come out too badly :)

Bit of a short post today! Thanks for reading :)

Procrastination.

Hiya,
I think one of the things I am best at in life is the art of procrastination. Whenever there is something important to do I suddenly find that I have a million and one other things that are just that little bit more urgent to do instead. Things, for example, like painting my nails, making a cup of tea, or playing solitaire on my computer... Today, however, instead of doing some work, I rediscovered the magical world of weheartit.com! I popped in some words like 'fashion,' 'make up,' 'paris' and 'vintage' and chose some of my favourites, which I thought I would post on here :) I hope you like them!
