New at the Drugstore Review: Kate Moss Lasting Finish Matte Lipsticks by Rimmel

        Hey there! So for my subscribers on Youtube who would rather read my review and see the pictures and swatches of the lipstick rather than watch my review video, here is a brief overview of the categories I graded the lipstick on and some photographic swatches so you can see what the shade looks like on! I HATE hate HATE when gurus review a lip product and talk all about it but DON'T try it on...what sense does that make? Color on your hand won't convince me to buy something! So here we go!

Me wearing the lipstick in about a thousand and one different kinds of lighting. 

Kate Moss Lasting Finish Matte Lipstick by Rimmel London in Shade 103 

Color selection: 6/10 - good if you like reds! 

Packaging: 10/10- cute as can be!

Taste & Smell: 7/10- good but strong, you get sick of it


Kate Moss Matte Lipstick in Shade 103

Pigmentation: 8/10 - doesn't look in the tube like it does on your lips!

Staying power: 9/10: stayed on throughout drinks, but I haven't fully tested its staying power out yet

Price: $5.49 at Walgreens! A+! 10/10

Kate Moss Matte Lipstick in Shade 103

Ease to find: 6/10- found at all Walgreens, but at none of my local CVS'!

Does it hold up to its claims? 9/10- great matte finish, but sometimes you have to blot to get it.

Texture/feel (Easy to apply?): 8/10- drags when applying, MAC is smoother

Overall I give it... 8/10- biggest cons were flavor and color selection

*******************************************************
Total: 81/100, which would be a B- in school. However, I'm rounding it up to a B because I really do like this product, the color choice and this particular shade just aren't for me. I really want to go out and try another shade! 107, the dark red-brown Kate wears in the advertising, looks gorgeous but is always sold out! GRRR!

Have you tried these lipsticks? What other shades should I pick up?


Thanks for reading and be sure to watch my video for the full review!
