Review: The Lipstick Collection created by Kate By Rimmel



The 1st Lipstick collection created by Kate Moss High intensity colour for up to 8 hours. Formula infused with Black Diamonds, reflects light like never before. Captues all the flair, edge and timelessness of Kate’s unique look.

First off, the name is not catchy at all. I need to get that out of my system, its too long and I think the name is what really prevented this lipstick from taking off. A simple 'By Kate' would have been significantly better. 

The packaging is cute and simple, I really like it. I think it reflects Kate Moss's style and I love that she put a simple signature on each one, I think it is a nice touch and very good branding for herself. There is only a simple embossed Rimmel logo on the top, not overbearing at all. 

I bought the brightest red there was, because you can never have enough red lipstick. The below image is myself wearing the shade 10 with a red lip liner underneath the prevent it bleeding out. It goes on relatively smooth, it can be a bit fiddly to get right but with lipliner as your base, you can't really go wrong. I wore it for a full day and I was definitely impressed with the performance, it stayed on even after i ate. It is hard to tell if that is due to the lipliner or the lipstick its self.


Overall, i was very impressed by the product, not the name. It surpassed my expectations as I have not hard particularly high ones for Rimmel in the past. I would definitely purchase this again in the future and recommend it for someone who wants a good lasting red lipstick that does not have a ridiculous price tag.
