Rimmel Lasting Finish Lipsticks | Review + Swatches

I wanted to write a blogpost about these gems, because they are amazing drugstore lipsticks. They come in many colours, so I'm sure you will find the most flattering shade for your taste and skintone.

Surprisingly, these lipsticks are very creamy. I was sceptical at first, simply because of the name Lasting Finish. Usually, longwearing lipsticks aren't moisturizing at all, but these are quite nice, they are not drying. The name says Lasting Finish Intense Wear Lipsticks, but they don't last incredibly long. Rimmel says that this lippie "locks colour to lips for up to 8 hours", but I often find myself reapplying it after 5 hours. That is still pretty good though.

The coverage is quite good, the most opaque shades are Asia and Pink Blush. The scent is very strong, you can taste it on the lips too. I am not a huge fan of that.

Nude Pink is a pearly peachy nude shade, I'm not sure about the name choice here. It's not pink, nor nude. (I'm wearing it here.)

Vintage has microshimmer and it is very similar to Pink Blush, but not as bold. You can feel the shimmer on the lips a teeny bit.

Airy Fairy is a nice mauve nude with gold shimmer, it is one of my favourites. Many people love it,and I can see why.

Birthday Suit is a beige nude lippie. Fair skin people, don't be afraid! It looks pretty on light skin as well. I got mine years ago, that's why the packaging is different.

As I said here, Asia is one of my favourites. It looks amazing, you can wear it for daytime and nighttime as well. My other favourite is Pink Blush (its old name was Pink Champagne). I wear it usually at Anime Cons, so if you like gyaru or lolita looks, it is the pefect candy pink lipstick for you. People often say that it is a dupe for the MAC Viva Glam Gaga lipstick.

I thought this post might help since the swatches on the Rimmel website are tricky. Too bad we have a very limited shade selection here in Hungary.

I highly recommend these if you are looking for affordable and longlasting lipsticks.
Do you own any of them?

I purchased the products myself.
