Hello everyone! Before I get onto my review, I'm actually away this weekend, I'm in York as you read this for the weekend with my family (fun fact - I'm half Yorkshire!) so the posts today, tomorrow and Sunday are all scheduled (yes I am posting 3 days in a row because I am away, you are lucky!) and I won't reply to your comments/read anyone else's posts this weekend straight away but I'll be on at some point on Sunday/Monday when I get home so I'll be commenting away and reading posts then. :)
Anyway, today I am here to talk about my favourite dark lipstick that Zoella always talks about in her videos, it's Kate Moss' lipstick line for Rimmel in the shade 107.
Rimmel claim that this lipstick is: "Sumptuously Rich Matte Colour with a sublime comfort. Ruby Powder enriched formula. Intense velvet colour all day!"

The packaging is pretty simple, red plastic case with Kate's signature in black and a Rimmel black strip around it. The lipstick tube is again just red and black, there's nothing too special about the packaging, Kate's signature is a pretty cool effect but apart from that.. It's just pretty standard, I'm not looking for anything amazing for £5.49! Also, you need to pull it for the lid to come off so I'm pretty sure it won't open itself and go everywhere in your bag, however I personally always keep my make-up in a separate compartment just in case.
I unfortunately didn't get a swatch on my hand because the photo I took was blurry and I thought you seeing it on my lips would be good enough, but in the tube it looks the exact same as it does on the lips - a dark pink raspberry colour.
On the lips this lipstick is just gorgeous. I absolutely agree with everything Rimmel claims this lipstick to be! It is matte but it is not drying at all, it is almost moisturising as when it is applied it honestly glides on like a dream, it is so easy to apply! On the lips it is so soft and smooth, exactly like velvet, no joke. This lipstick is very pigmented, you could dab it on and blend it in with your finger or a brush for a bit of colour, making it more like a stain with a little colour or just go full on like me and get this intense dark raspberry colour.
Once on the lips, it stays there for a long time! Due to it being such a dark lipstick it does kinda act like a stain as well. However, it's not invincible so if you are eating or drinking it will transfer but I think pretty much every lipstick does so it's not a big deal, plus I always take my lipstick with me when I'm going out in case I need to touch up. Saying that though.. I was out with my friends one night having a few drinks, and it lasted a solid 8 hours with me drinking and having a good laugh and it still looked good! I'm pretty sure I touched up once but to be honest, it would have been fine if I hadn't, it was probably because all my friends were doing it in the bathroom..
Overall, I am in love with this lipstick and I cannot say anything bad about it. It wears well and doesn't come off for a long time, it is super pigmented, applies smoothly. isn't drying on the lips even though it is a matte lipstick and once on the lips it genuinely feels like velvet and is so soft. I just love it. I AM IN LOVE WITH A LIPSTICK.
So.. That's about it for this post, thank you for reading! I hope you enjoy these reviews. Have you tried any of Kate Moss' lipsticks from Rimmel?
Have a lovely day and don't stop smiling. :)
