Review: Rimmel Lasting Finish Kate Moss Lipsticks in #03, #12 and #16

Today's review is going to be the Rimmel Kate Moss lipsticks in three different colours. As always swatches will be included.




In general, these lipsticks are really moisturizing, they have a strong pigment and have a satin finish. When blotted, you can turn these into a more matte finish. I love how they don't sit into the creases of your lips and cover up dry lips well (which is a huge plus since my lips are always chapped). But I do not think they offer a lasting finish, if you eat and drink they come off. And it's lasting power is not incredibly long either.


Natural lips.


First specific colour I will be talking about is #03. It's a brown nude with a slightly pink undertone, for some it may be to brown but I like it that way. Nudes that are too white-based and too light don't suit me at all. I love this one because I use it to mix with pinks and lip glosses to make my own shade of nude that has a brown undertone which I prefer since it's really hard to find my perfect nude. I really recommend this if you want a brown nude.

#03

Next is #12. Gorgeous colour, it looks red in the picture but I would say it's a pure orange with some red in it. It's bright, it's a really wow colour. Suits my skintone so well, as I find orange based lipsticks suit with an Asian complexion. It's not too red and not too orange, so it's very wearable dabbed on the lips or really smeared on. Great impact colour, my go-to 'red' lipstick.


#12
Last but not least is #16. It looks very neutral in the picture but it's far from it. It's a true warm pink, no hint of blue. I tend to go for warmer pinks (besides fuchsia) since light neutral pinks make my teeth yellow and just doesn't blend into my lips well. It's a really beautiful pinky peach colour and I love this for a slightly bold wearable lip. Although I prefer to wear this in junction with #03 on top to make the perfect pink everyday colour. 

#16
I love these lipsticks, they're worth the price (I got mine on sale for $10-11 each) and the colours are so great and work so well for myself. These are probably my favorite in the collection. I only wished they'd stay on the lips longer. But I totally recommend them, they're an all round good lipstick~

Thanks for reading! x
