Kate Moss Nude Matte Lipstick Range

Hey everyone. Recently, Kate moss has released another addition to her existing Rimmel line. Specialising in the lipstick section, KM has designed her own lipsticks ranging from subtle nudes to electric reds, which all have mainly a semi-matte/matte formula. She has now released the 3 essential matte nudes to her collection. The shades are 40, 43 & 45. Alongside the 'dare to bare' nude lipsticks, she has also brought out her own nail varnishes. The lipsticks are supposed to wear for up to 8 hours with their long lasting formula. Each shade is meant to compliment a certain skin tone.

 

They are available from superdrug, boots and feel unique etc. Sadly I am not able to locate these lipsticks online as they have sold out buy keep an eye out here: http://www.superdrug.com/brandshop/rimmel

 

 

Packaging wise, the products do feel slightly cheap. I don't know if that's because I am so used to my MAC lipsticks, but the plastic isn't really to my taste. However I am a big fan of the nude outer packaging with Kate's signature. They are travel friendly and the lid is secure so you don't have to worry about the lid popping off in your handbag.

In terms of formula the lipstick is very creamy. It doesn't appear matte in the bullet but as soon as it hits the lips, it does turn matte after a few minutes, although it still has a slight shine to it. The formula sits very comfortably on the lips. The lipsticks also own a cupcake/vanilla scent. One thing I was disappointed with was the amount of lipstick. They almost reminded me of tester lipsticks. Compared to other lipsticks, they are much shorter. As for the long levity of the formula, it does not last up to 8 hours. As its very buttery and comfortable on the lips, it lasts around an hour or two... that's without eating/drinking. Im not too impressed with that as the lipstick claims to last a lot longer.

 

SHADE 43:

I would describe shade 43 as a beige toned nude. This would look beautiful on all skins tones however I think would appear more orange on fair skin. This would look amazing with a copper/bronze smokey eye with bronzed skin.

 

 

SHADE 45

Shade 45 is a pink toned nude. This almost reminds me of blankety from MAC.. It's a your lips but better colour. It could pass off as a Kylie Jenner Lip colour.  Its a really delicate nude that would look beautiful paired with a 'no makeup makeup look'

 

SHADE 40

Shade 40 is my favourite shade out of the lot. Its definitely a dupe for MAC's myth lipstick. Its a very pale tone that would look beautiful on darker skin tones, but a sheer wash of this colour on fair skin works just as well. This lipstick strangely has the least product in it. Due to the light colour, this lasts the longest on the lips. This Is the perfect lipstick for a dark black/brown smokey eye.

Overall, I really like these lipsticks and I have been using them so frequently. Each shade matches a particular skin tone,but all 3 can be used for one person. I am really impressed with the comfortable formula on the lips and the beautiful nude colours. I am disappointed with the amount of product you get, and the long levity of wear. Other than that, they are a handbag staple & a nude lovers dream.
