Packaging is nice, red matte tubes:
The shades I got are 111 "Kiss of Life" and 106- no name but it's fuschia.
The first thing I noticed about these is they're not matte! I have and like matte lipsticks, but this one is more satiny, semi-matte at best. I double and triple checked Rimmel's pics and other sites to make sure I had the same product and I do, but I think the description on their site is more accurate- velvety matte. They also have a weird smell but it didn't transfer to taste when I applied. I think they are very soft on the lips and not drying at all.
They are called "Lasting Finish" and with that, I agree- I can wear them 5-6 hours and although they don't last through a meal, some colour still remains.
The shades I chose are very bold so I'd highly recommend a lip liner. I did a quick lip swatch with the red, but I don't know when I'll have the opportunity to wear it out!
I might go back for one of the peachy or nude shades, because at the price of $7.50, it's very affordable.
Love this color on you! xx
