Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick in shade 08 Review

Hi All!

I thought I'd jump straight in with a review of the Kate Moss Lipstick. These are talked about and hyped all over the beauty blogger circle and on YouTube.
So do I think they live up to the hype?



I went for shade 08 as it was a neutral everyday sort of shade which would be easy to wear with different looks. I was debating between this one and 19 which was a hair warmer and redder.



The shade in the tube is a dusky rose with a hint of shimmer - very much a my lips but better shade. I find the shimmer does not show on the lips which I prefer as shimmer tends to show up dry patches and lines on the lips.

The finish on the lips is semi-matte and I find because its partly matte it is pretty long wearing. The only downside I find to this lipstick is that after I've had it on my lips for a couple of hours I find it looks a bit dry on my lips. I doesn't feel particularly dry on - my lips still feel comfortable but I find they start looking a bit flakey.

As for application these apply really nicely - creamy but not so creamy they go everywhere. I'd definitely like to dry these in a bright or dark shade as I found I could get a very precise application with the formula. I can't really make any comment on bleeding, it doesn't appear to but this shade is pretty light.

Here is the lipstick worn with today's FOTD.
