Review: Rimmel Vinyl Jelly Lip Pencil

Hello beauty addicts,
Rimmel Vinyl Jelly lip pencils


Today I will review the vinyl jelly Rimmel lip pencils in 001 and 004. The lip pencils are in a smooth crayon texture not like the traditional pencil with pointed tip. The tip is blunt and glides smoothly.


The colors are frosted when you apply, not at all matte. The color 001(Moreish) is a baby doll/pale pink but the frosted shimmer makes it more whitish.


The color 004(Sorbet) is a coral color even thought the shimmer is prominent more color comes out in this than 001.


Rimmel vinyl jelly pencils have are decently long lasting. The also do a good job of keeping lipsticks, put on top. If most of it is gone there will be at least be a tint.

Left: 001-Moreish, Right:004 Sorbet


It doesn't leave lips feeling dry. However, I have noticed the product is used up quite quickly. After one use you will be reaching to sharpen every time.

Take care and join me:

Fall 2013: Beauty Must-Haves!

Hello,


As the weather is changing so will the clothes, trends and off course our beauty section as well.
Fall winter always sees some deep hues keeping the look warm.  Setting into the season, I came across some unusual shades that will pop our dark/neutral bases in clothing.

I first head over to  Pantone website to see their fall forecast of colors for 2013 and here it is:
More on Pantone: http://www.pantone.com/pages/fcr.aspx?pg=21058&ca=4
Based on these color trends I have picked out makeup must haves for my beauty dashboard.

I discovered a Nars duo in ‘Rated R duo’ vibrant and something off the hook for fall/winter look. The blue is definitely something to keep from the summer trends and the green shade will pop the neutral browns or grays/blacks. Experiment with it, don’t shy away. This is off course pricey, however similar shades can be bought in Wet n Wild palettes in Knock on Wood, Blue had me Hello, I love matte, Cool as Cucumber and many more can be found in their range.


Colored eye pencil liners are definitely a keeper. Shades in Burgandy, Emerald, Purple/Plum and Dark brown are must haves. Sephora’s waterproof eye liner collection, Bourjois Clubbing Water proof eye liners, Urban decay 24/7 eyeliner pencils are best to find all these above mentioned shades. Both high end and drugstore brand options given are highly pigmented and long lasting.


Lips are always  fall/winters focus points. Samba is lighter red than oxblood red from last season. However, the deeper shade of red is a keeper as well. Vivacious is a bright pink with blue accents and this lip color just makes a big statement. From Mac, Urban Decay, Rimmel, Revlon, Maybelline Color Sensational all have great options for this color.
Do Not forget your lip balms ladies, deeper shades only look good on moist smooth lips. If you have a dark lip that will be your highlighting point hence some help from Burt’s bees, Body Shop lip care products should always be in your hand bag.

Nail paint is also a big trend. Keep a Vivacious pink option it looks best with dark bases like khaki greens, gray, black, cobalt blue, dark greenish browns like Carafe in the Pantone color trend.
Definitely keep a rich purple to add glam and classy richness and even borrow the orange from the summers. It will surely give a wake up call to the lazy winter days.

So these are some essentials to set the theme for this fall/winter season Please join me on the following and any suggestions are welcome:
