Rimmel London | Kate Moss Matte Lipsticks

While at LFW Grace & I, went to chill at the Glam Blogging Suite as we had 3 hrs between the shows to really just be pampered & mingle. We was given a goody bag with some really nice Rimmel London products in.

Inside was the new Kate Moss Lipsticks, I've never tried any of her lipsticks with Rimmel, meh - I'm not sure why not, at first I said yeah let me go get one & just never did. Having it now inside the bag gives me a chance to see how these are.

5 matte shades all ready for the upcoming Autumn season, the colours range from a nude, reds to a  purple.
Let's get to swatching & reviewing :


#101 - This is a blue based pink & Is one of two shades I see being popular with a few of the girls. I like how it looks on my skin with the flash, looks a lil bit more baby /bubblegum pink, in the daylight it's got a slight lilac undertone to it but for everyday I doubt it would really do my skin justice but who know's I might have to do a look with it featuring one of the new Sleek palettes.


#107 - Dark lips, great for the upcoming season, festive times a lot of red and purples are used. This doesn't look as dark as it does in the tube but it's such a gorgeous shade and can be quite a glamorous look and a nice alternative to a red.

#110 - This orange based red is such a gorgeous colour, gives such a coral tone on my lips, a stunning alternative to the upcoming season. I've read that for some it reminds them of MAC Morange which I have & once swatched on the hand #110 does but on my lips it more reminds me of a less than vibrant Sleek Coral Reef.

#111 - Postbox red,  it's an instant classic!


#113 - Peachy toned nude, another favourite for some I believe. I think I'd have to put a lip gloss over this to make it more wearable but definitely one I'd have to try within a look but then again it might not suit me too well. Looks nice in the flash photo in person might need a little perking up.

Being as these are marketed as a matte lipstick these are unbelievably hydrating with a sheen. Matte as well know can feel very drying and uncomfortable with the constant reminder it's there but these are gorgeous and highly recommended. These even have a slight fruity smell that I cannot distinguish ( peaches? watermelon? cherries? )
