10 of the Best Rimmel Products

It’s been awhile since I’ve done one of these posts before and when I went and bought a new Rimmel product the other day it came to me that I should do one for Rimmel. So here are what I think are the 10 Best Rimmel products.

Face Products

Rimmel Stay Matte Primer || The Rimmel Stay Matte Primer is a really great primer. It applies with well with either a brush or hands, is lightweight and does a great job of keeping you matte all day.

Rimmel Stay Matte Foundation || I got a chance to review the Rimmel Stay Matte Foundation before it came out for Influenster, read that here, and I LOVED it. The color as a pretty good match for just eyeballing, it kept me matte most of the day AND it just absorbs so well.

Rimmel Stay Matte Powder || At this point I guess I could just say “Anything in the Stay Matte Line” and be safe. The Rimmel Stay Matte Powder is probably my often reached for setting powder when it comes down to. It wears well over both drugstore and high end foundations and I have found that it works really well at giving “cheap” foundations a boost.

Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation || I bought the Rimmel Match Perfection because I thought I really should try their other foundation to compare it to the Stay Matte. As I really enjoyed most of the Rimmel products that I had tried I figured I would like this one and call it a day. The Match Perfection is your typical liquid foundation and goes on really well with a brush. What I really liked about this foundation was it did a really good job of matching to my actual skin tone and had a good satiny finish.

Eyes

Rimmel Eye Shadows || Really just about any of the Rimmel Glam’eye Eye Shadows are great (they have a trio, a quad and one that has five). I own several of the quads and the ones with five shadows and love each of them. They shadows are not only super pigmented but they also last for ages without a primer on my lids.

Rimmel Scandaleyes Eye Kohl in Nude and Black || Shhh, I technically snuck in an extra item. I love both of the Scandaleyes Eyeliners pictured. They both are super creamy and super long lasting. I use the Nude on my lower waterline and I use the black for tightlining. Both work really well for these two uses as they glide on super smooth.

Rimmel ScandalEyes Retro Glam Mascara || I picked up the Retro Glam Mascara for a one brand tutorial I did awhile back and it quickly turned into one of my favorite mascaras. I tend to have a problem with mascaras causing my eyes to burn after a few hours and the Retro Glam Mascara did not give me that problem.

Rimmel ScandalEyes Rockin’ Curves Mascara || I, again, received this to review in partnership with Influenster in the Moda Vox Box and I initially thought that with the wand it was just going to be a gimmicky mascara. I actually love the Rockin’ Curves Mascara just a tiny bit more than I love the Retro Glam Mascara. The curved wand actually helps me to get all of my lashes on fewer swipes through.

Lips

Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick || I also received the Moisture Renew Lipstick in the Moda Vox Box. This lipstick is super moisturizing and very long wearing. It’s easily one of my favorite drugstore lipsticks.

Rimmel Show Off Lip Lacquer || The one brand tutorial and is spectacular. It is ridiculously pigmented, not sticky at all, and it lasts for ages.

    Rimmel’s Stay Matte Primer and BB cream are excellent. They last forever and look good too.

    I just tried the stay Matte Primer and love it! I also loved the BB creme in Fair. I am going to give the eyeshadow and the lip products a try. It is so nice to find quality makeup that doesn’t break the bank!
