Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick



On my first Priceline haul to get the glorious Free Beauty Bag (which I shall forever be speaking of!) I picked up this little beauty. I've forever been on the search for a nude lipstick but always seem to forget whenever I go into the store. So I figured now was as good a time as any!

I chose the Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick in "Nude Delight." I'm a huge fan of Rimmel (most of my "drugstore" cosmetics are Rimmel) so I know this will work well for me, well before I even buy it! I have a few other lipsticks in the "Moisture Renew" line, sadly it's a small range, but they're one of my favourites!


Something that I like about the Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipsticks is the packaging. I've heard mixed opinions on this one, so I'll share mine too! I like it! I'm a sucker for cute packaging, and the glorious shiny purple is a real eye catcher for me, so what's not to love? Plus Rimmel's signature crown adds that cute charm!





I feel it stays true to its name and really moisturises my lips. One thing I liked about this one is that it truly did leave me with a "nude" look on my lips. I've swatched a few other lippies before and I find them either too dark, or too glittery or too glossy, or even too matted, to truly look "nude."
I think this one hit it's mark for me and has a nice middle ground.


Upon swatching I was a little concerned it might be too dark, but I have to keep reminding myself that my arm is so much whiter than my lips and that it should work fine! I'm happy I didn't pass on this!
And so it does! Here is the final result! It really did achieve the nude look I was after! Very natural and sophisticated, but still sexy! (At least I think so haha!)


So what do you think of this lipstick? Have you tried it? Or have you got another favourite nude lippy that you should be telling me about right now!
