Rimmel Apocalips Matte Lip Lacquer ♥

Hey guys!

I have been meaning to post this blog post for a while now but keep pushing it back for no known reason haha!

Today's post is going to be on the Rimmel Apocalips Matte Lip Lacquer!They retail for £6.49 at Boots and i have 3 of the 4 colours to show you today!
I know these have been out for some while now and I feel like everyone has already brought them or they have swatched them but I still wanted to make the post anyways to let you know my opinion on them!

The three colours I have from right to left are 

'Meteoric Matte' - 'Atomic Rose' - 'Burning Lava'

These beauties are wonderful!

They are soft, creamy and highly pigmented.

When I first brought these I literally wore nothing else on my lips for months.

Meteoric Matte is a pink/red/purple colour mix.

When applied several times the colour does deepen to the colour in the tube.

Atomic Rose is a little our of my comfort zone.
I never wear nudes and this to me is very very nude!
However i love the colour and have worn it on several occasions with a dark intense eye makeup.

Burning Lava is a lovely rich red colour.

I love wearing this with a brown neutral eye!

Like I said above I love these lip lacquers however they do not dry fully matte.

As you can see from the pictures they still have a slight shine to them in the center of the lips where the light naturally hits.

The fact that they do not dry fully matte to some people is a huge bonus because many don't like the super dry matte feeling on their lips which I do not mind.

I really want to pick up the other on which I haven't got which is 'ornahe-olog'.Have you guys tried these?

What do you think?

MAC Ruby Woo Dupe?! ♥

Hey guys!

My last MAC lipstick dupe is one of my highest viewed posts so I thought if you guys enjoy them I would find another which is what I have done! WOO!

If you haven't seen my last dupe post it on was MAC Rebel you can read it here.

Okay, so the amazing thing about this dupe it that it's not a lipstick.

I needed a new red lip liner and to my surprise it was the same colour, texture and finish as MAC Ruby woo!

The lipliner is Rimmel 1000 kisses Lasting Finish lip liner pencil is 021 red dynamite!

This product retails for £2.99 at Superdrug and Boots!

This is MAC Ruby woo and retails for £15.50

I know MAC have recently brought out a lip liner matching this lipstick which costs £12.50 but that is still a £9.51 saving buying the Rimmel dupe!
This is the part you have all been wanting to see. The colour comparison!

Left - Rimmel lip liner pencil               Right - Mac Ruby Woo

As you can see from the swatches above they both look the same on the lips and in swatches!
Yes, Ruby woo is easier to apply and does show on the lips more red but with a couple of layers of the lip pencil you will get the same pigmentation.
The lip liner in my eyes is better for if you were going to go out and eat or drink with this product on due to it lasting and staining power on the lips.

If you have always wanted to try Ruby Woo but didn't want to spend the £15.50 for the lipstick then this is the perfect way to test it out and for £2.99 you're not breaking the bank on a lipstick that you may not like!

I hope you guys liked this post!
Let me know what you think!
