Walgreens is having a monster sale on ALL Rimmel London cosmetics for 50% off so of course being the sale junkie I am I purchased my first Rimmel products... EVER! I purchased 2 lippies and a nail polish plus I had $1 off coupons so everything came out ridiculously cheap (I paid $1.99 for a 6.00 lipstick : ) ).
One shade I heard about and popularized was 'Airy Fairy' and I didn't think they were going to have any but I was wrong: this Walgreens was fully stocked!
Yay for me! First impressions was yummm they smell nice, doesn't taste too awful and the shade in the tube itself wasn't too dark nor too light. I tend to go for the more rosier/brownie shades in lipsticks but I still wanted to try this one. It's a bit light for my liking but with a brown lip liner pencil it is magical! It's a cream finish so it isn't matte nor glossy just right and opaque. I really like it for everyday neutral looks and could easily be paired with a smokey eye any day. It is a pink with a light plummy undertone, that's the best way I can describe it. As for the 6+ long lasting claim I couldn't tell you know but I will keep you posted later on... LET THE SWATCHES BEGIN!
looks a little lighter in the pic but in real life its a tad darker |
It's a bit drying on the lips so I always keep my burt's beeswax on deck before application and let the lip balm absorb into my lips before applying the lipstick.
