review: rimmel vinyl lip gloss

hihi.
today il be reviewing 4 of rimmel's vinyl lip glosses.

i got them from watsons in a $9.90 mix bag of rimmel stuff (includes eyeshadow palette, 2 lip glosses, mascara, lipstick, face powder or nail polish).

managed to get 2 on different occasions and im glad i did! real value for money although i must tell u the products were manufactured in late 2010, 2011 so get them if ur willing to use them knowingly.

such mix bags are great to play and test drive the brand's offerings.

ok here they are:-


il review them in this order
(left to right)
#290 be famous
#240 fall in love
#330 snog
#190 pin up

first up, #290 be famous


a nude-ish coral with a translucent jelly finish. just enough orange in this coral. really easy to wear and this shade of coral although safe, it never fails to brighten up my face. love.

#240 fall in love


ok straight off the bat. i didnt 'fall in love' with this and it's not becos it has shimmers/glitter (no worries it's micro fine). it is a sheer rose pink with lotsa shimmer and it enhances my natural lip colour but that's all.

it doesn't wow me cos it makes me look pale and sickly after a while.
i believe other girls can rock it though.

#330 snog


'snog'? heh so brit. 'lets snog under the banyan tree??' that's how it'd possibly be in my part of the world... not under the eiffel tower heh

this is the first vinyl gloss i got n i love it to bits. i looked it up online and found that i'm not the only fan.

yes it is the usual pinkish brown mauve (colour in the picture is not the exact representation. real colour is slightly darker) but who cares?!

i love to wear nudes but it is so hard for me to find one that doesn't wash me out or look like im putting concealer on my lips (not a fan of that look). this is my mlbb.

this gem can go with alot of looks be it dramatic, smokey or natural. if u see it in the stores, get it.
ive only one tube of this so im gonna ration it. yesh, r a t i o n.
love love major love.

#190 pin up


finally, colour.
ok now this is confession time.
in my mix bag there was no pin up but some ugly pearlised colour. i spotted pin up in another bag and i was like 'me. need. that. now.'

so the dirty deed was done and she became mine.
(dont get the wrong idea. i exchanged not stole it.)

for girls who don't fancy red lips or are afraid of going bold this is a good transition shade to the dramatic side. instead of red, try this raspberry gloss.

in the pic above i didn't layer alot of colour but you can put on more to get a very bright and fascinating shade of raspberry pink.

the best part is that i love how this shade plumps and makes my lips bitable

love. all love.

all 4 swatched on my hand

be famous/fall in love/snog/pin up

overall:-
texture is great. no sticky feeling and high mirror shine.

since i got this in a mix bag for a real low price i do not know how much this costs alone but not alot i believe.

so def a good buy for a gloss that performs well.

i won't go into how long it lasts since it's a gloss i expect to touch up more often than when i wear a lipstick.

ok thanks for reading! thxbai :)
