Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick Shade 11

I did tell you I had been getting myself into lipsticks so here I am again with another lipstick review. Since I started purchasing lipsticks I went a tiny bit crazy but I kind of stuck to nude or sheer lipsticks as I didn't want to be daring and to be honest was a bit scared of actually wearing them. So anyway I was shopping with mum and came across this little beauty. I'd heard a lot about these Kate Moss lipsticks so was interested in purchasing one. I actually found this in The Factory Shop and I believe it was only £3, hence why I couldn't resist.

When I first saw the colour I was a bit reluctant as it looks quite a dark red but when I swatched it, I didn't think it looked quite as daring so thought I'd give it a whirl. This lipstick is so pigmented it's crazy, just a few strokes on the lips and you have a full volume red lip. There's no hiding with this lipstick that's for sure but I rather like it. I have worn this on a night out with just a simple black dress and it really just gave the outfit that 'pop' it needed. It's not that bright red more of a toned down, slightly darker and not so loud. Which is something I really like about this lipstick as I personally think it's a more wearable day colour.

Like I said I've worn this on a night out, along with just casual days of not doing a lot where application is more easy so I'll base this on a night out. But the wear of this lipstick lasted a while and what I loved is that after it had worn off slightly it left me with a nice stained lip with a more matte effect. This was perfect as it meant that re-application wasn't needed every time I was well basically in front of a mirror. Rimmel claims this lipstick lasts 8 hours which I don't agree with but when do they ever last that long 'ey? The formula of this lipstick is nice and it easily glides on, although I do find myself taking longer to apply this lipstick than normal. Now whether that's just me (I hope not) but I find it trickier to apply due to the intense colour. It is nice and moisturising but I do, like with most lipsticks, like to apply lip balm fast so my lips don't dry out so fast as they are prone to doing so.

The packaging is pretty simple, black with Kate written in red. It feels quite hard wearing in that fact that basically it's not plastic-y... so in other words the packaging is not going to crack or break on you which is obviously a bonus.

Overall I love this lipstick and would definitely love to get my hands on a couple of other shades, I believe there are also 11 shades to choose from so definitely should find one to suit you :) The colour, formula and wear of this lipstick is brilliant, I recommend them! And if you have a Factory Shop near you then try there first before hitting Boots/Superdrug!

Have you tried this lipstick? If so what's your favourite shade?
