Worst Lipstick Shade Ever?
This Rimmel product was pretty much one of the first lipsticks I ever purchased, and do you know why I got it? Because of the pretty 'cool' packaging. I had absolutely no idea which lipstick shades suit me, and to thought of me wearing this in everyday life is laughable!
Cool, huh? ;)
It's a weird bronzey colour. I have never seen a shade like this since, and part of me wonders if it is actually an eyeshadow...even though the bullet/packaging suggests otherwise. Maybe this would suit darker skin tones but for me...just no.
See? I think this would look pretty nice on the eyes. It reminds me of Maybelline's Colour Tattoo in 'eternal gold'.
It just looks like a bad nude here, washing me out, but in real life it is much golder, and much worse! Awful awful.

I often get tempted in by the packaging. Just use it for decorative purposes. x
ReplyDeleteWow, that is definitely an odd color...maybe on a tan/darker skinned person it would like nice? Maybe...

You know...this could still work for you if you mix it with another lippie:)
ReplyDeleteBut you know, I've bought lippies too just for the packaging...sigh...
Perhaps next time if you buy a product you can try it first and look at it for a long time so you won't regret for what you have bought :)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your shopping next time :)

I think this would be the perfect summer shade with a nice tan, it would make skin look more golden and gorgeous! Maybe keep hold of it til then and try it out :)

Seems like a very strange shade it would make a good highlight though if you could get it to blend well enough.
ReplyDeleteHaha it seems like such a strange colour to put on your lips...maybe it is supposed to be used elsewhere?

I think you could definitely use it as an eyeshadow, or maybe if you get a tan it would work pretty well as a highlighter on the tops of your cheekbones, down the centre of the nose etc. I regularly use frosted lipsticks as highlighters because to be honest, I'm not sure anyone can pull of frosting :/ give it a go and see if it works out-Let me know if you do :)
