Rimmel stay glossy

Rimmel stay glossy lip gloss in 'all night long'


GOOD THINGS........ shiny and glossy and very pigmented :)
BAD THINGS........... Doesn't last very long :(


Packaging..........
The lip gloss comes in a 5.5ml clear  tube with a  large silver screw top handle. The handle is a good size to aid in the application of the gloss and it also has a  indented area for you to put your finger and thumb in the area, again  good for applying it as many lip glosses have very flimsy applicators.
The applicator is spongy, starting off at the top quite thick, going downwards into a flatter section at the tip.
What they claim......
Style. Shape. Shine. Stay Glossy delivers on all three with a fantastic new formula and applicator combo, custom-designed for fabulously luscious lips that last, and last, and last.Stay Glossy delivers on all three with a fantastic new formula and applicator combo, custom-designed for fabulously luscious lips that last, and last, and last

The lip gloss..........

I really like this gloss! I like the colour, it’s an intense maroon-ish red but it's actually quite wearable, and nicely glossy and plumping. It was £5.99 which I think is expensive for a Rimmel lip gloss but then I guess high street  make up is going up in price generally

Rimmel Vinyl Gloss

The next thing i bought was Rimmel Vinyl Gloss, its RRP is £4.99 which is the price i paid.


GOOD THINGS........... looks glossy and makes lips soft and curvy
BAD THINGS............... tastes disgusting and is very very sticky


What it claims..........


Rimmel's Vinyl gloss claims that it delivers a 'brilliant high gloss lasting shine which conditions & moisturises' as well as it being a 'lightweight, non-sticky formula'


Packaging.................


My first thought upon seeing this was slight disappointment because I think that it looks sorta cheap and tacky looking, a bit like those glosses from miss sporty ! I must admit that I expected a bit more class from Rimmel, but however, looks aren't everything (or are they?). The bottle is roughly 4 inches in length, and supposedly contains 5ml of lip-gloss  (must be kidding me on ). The bottle is clear so that you can see the product inside, with a rim of silver just under the cap, with the Rimmel logo. The actual cap itself black  and quite big.


The lip-gloss...............


Although this is a good lip-gloss it is VERY sticky and tastes HORRIBLE.  It does however make your lips look super shiny which is great, although I wouldn't say it gives a ''mirror shine'' as it claims to do so. Another good factor is that it DOES condition and moisturize, making lips visibly softer so it doubles up as a lip balm.





Despite its flaws - it's a good lip-gloss
no gloss on :((((((((((




 Gloss on - soo glossy :)))))))


I bought 730 (cosmic) :]
