Considering the amount of new products that come out every season from a multitude of high-end and drugstore brands, I’m still never able to resist trying them out. Luckily, from time to time I get to receive new products to try out from some of my favourite brands, which I’m tremendously grateful for.

This Summer, Rimmel London came out with loads of new products and courtesy of Rimmel London Malta, I got to try them out so I could share my thoughts with all of you lovelies.

So let’s delve into it!

Starting off this post, we have the Magnif'Eyes Palette in the shade London Nudes Calling. It contains 8 different rosey-nude shades ranging from matte to shimmery. Now to be honest with you the mattes are not as pigmented as I hoped they would be, but the shimmery ones make up for that – they are super pigmented and creamy so they blend like a dream on the lid. The palette is also quite compact and travel-friendly, having a nice sized mirror which you can use on the go.

Moving on, we have the Scandaleyes Bold Eyeliner. After reading some negative reviews, it got me really intrigued in giving it out a try myself. The liquid liner has a ball-tip applicator which I thought would make it harder to make a precise line, but boy was I wrong! It is so easy to use, and as you will see in the photo further below, it applies a mean winged liner. It boasts to be waterproof and stays on for a good 24 hours which I have not tested out myself so I can’t comment on that. But as a liquid liner, it's quite good. 

Next up we have the Radiance Shimmer Brick. It comes in 2 shades – 01 which is for lighter skintones, and 02 which is for more bronzy-olive skin tones. Since I’m quite fair, I got mine in the shade 01. It gives a nice bronzy glow to the skin without being over the top. I just love it for everyday use – for that healthy glowing look. 

At last we have my new found holy grail mascara. The Volume Shake Mascara packs the pigment while giving your lashes the volume they need – I was even asked if I were wearing false eyelashes when wearing this mascara! It does not clump and has a new shaking-system which refreshes the formula each time you shake it.  Overall, I think it’s a wonderful mascara.

All items have been used in the look below ❤

Have a lovely Sunday!

Love, Thereseanne

Review & Swatches: Rimmel London | The Only 1 Matte Lipsticks*

The lovely people at Rimmel London – Malta never fail to surprise me! Recently they send out these lovely lipsticks which are part of the new Only 1 Matte Lipsticks collection. Now to be honest with you I have never tried the original Only 1 Lipsticks so I can’t tell you how they compare to these however I can tell you that these lipsticks are amazing, especially for those who like me enjoy a truly matte lipstick that is not as drying as liquid lipsticks.

To start off, I really love the packaging of these; I especially love that they have the coloured band around the bottom, so you always know which shade you’re picking up without having to actually open the lipstick.

This range is available in 9 different shades, ranging from nudes to darker berries and browns. I own two shades; 610 – High Flyer which is a really pretty dusty pink shade with great pigmentation and perfect for that girly everyday spring lip look and 810 – The Matte Factor which is gorgeous red with pink undertones, definitely a great pick for those who love a bold lip. 

Although these lipsticks are totally matte, they are super creamy, non-drying and amazingly pigmented – you only need one swipe for full opacity. When it comes to longevity, I can say that it won’t budge unless you’re eating or drinking, and even then it doesn’t get patchy but rather starts fading gradually. They also have (in my opinion) a lovely scent to them however if you’re someone who doesn’t like scented products, I’d skip this one.

Overall I just love these lipsticks! I’ll definitely be wearing High Flyer to death this Spring (and probably Summer too).

Hope you enjoyed this post and let me know if you ever tried these lipsticks!

Happy Weekend!

Love, T

Good evening my lovelies! Now I’m sure that by now you’ve seen the new Rimmel London X Kate Moss 15 year anniversary collection. To celebrate 15 years of Kate Moss being the face of Rimmel, they’ve released six new shades of the Kate lipsticks in stunning rose gold packaging and Kate’s signature on the lid.

Rose gold is so in right now, and I have to admit that the first thing that caught my eye was the packaging however the lipsticks themselves are gorgeous as well. Although there are 6 colours in the collection, thanks to Rimmel Malta I got the chance to try out 2 of the colours; 55 My Nude and 53 Retro Red.

My Nude is a gorgeous beigey nude, a kind of my lips but better sort of shade. I found that from all the lipsticks I’ve ever tried (and believe me, that’s a lot) this is the perfect nude for my skin tone.

Retro Red is a beautiful berry red shade with a slight cool undertone – perfect for the upcoming holiday season.

As you can see in the photos, they apply beautifully. The formula is their classic lasting finish, so a lovely natural satin finish, comfortable on the lips, so creamy and pigmented. They apply like a dream! And even though they are lipsticks, they lasted quite a while on my lips which is a bonus!

 I will tell you about the nail polishes in another post as I haven’t tried them yet but the colours look lovely + they look so appropriate for Christmas and New Year!

Have you tried these gorgeous lipsticks yet?

Love, T
