Impressed with Rimmel

Katcat1 — Sat, 21 Jun 2014 02:23:48 GMT

Never purchased any product from Rimmel except a clear top coat polish. Today I decided to try the BB cream. Great for summer as it has a SPF 25 & light to med. coverage and an impressive smooth finish and the price is $6 & change where I live @ Walmart. Thanks to the lady(ies) that recommended it. It's a winner.

I love it too. I also love the fix and perfect primer.

I recently purchased Rimmel Stay Matte for around $5, and it really does stay matte much better than the other liquid and mineral makeup I have.

Speaking of Rimmel, I bought a couple of their fat lip crayon sticks for about $5 each .... they are so good, I went back and bought 4 more colors. Really great consistency!

I love Rimmel shadow sticks, use them as eyeliners. I will try the BB cream, looking for something different. I have pink/cool tones, does it have a yellow tone ?

The Rimmel Kate Moss lipsticks in the black case are great too.

I haven't tried their BB cream - but might! I recommended the Rimmel Stay Matte because, like ElvisShops said, it stays matte for hours.

I've used the Rimmel eyeliners for years and now want to try some of their other products. Can't beat the prices!!!

They have a bunch of great products. Their pro primer (blue lid) is great, stay glossy lip gloss (my fav. lip gloss), lasting finish foundation, match perfection highlighter. I've been wearing some of their lipsticks for years. Their BB creams get good reviews too. The blushes and bronzers are good also.

I need to try the stay matte foundation and chubby lip crayons.

I recently needed a particular color of eyeliner really quick so I purchased the Rimmel ScandelEyes Kohl Waterproof pencil eyeliner. It went on smooth and had decent staying power. I did have to reapply on the inner corners of my eyes because of tearing from allergies but I have yet to meet a ""waterproof"" eyeliner that can stand up to tears for very long. I wish they would come up with a tearproof eyeliner!

Glad you found a DS BB that works well for you Kat.

I love their exaggerate lip liners in Natural & eastend Snob & I have a lipstick from the Kate Moss Collection.

I compared it to my Laura Mercier foundation that is a neutral and it is similar. Buy it at Walgreens because if it doesn't work out they will take it back. I bought Light.

I am trying to make a change, kabella, and find some drugstore makeup that works well. I love the high end but don't care for the prices. Have a nice weekend!

Kat I have ventured out & have found some awesome DS less costly alternatives to higher cost cosmetics. Is Rimmels BB a flat matte or semi-matte? I have tried every BB high & low & have yet to find one I like....Good Luck in your search, as they say "Search an you shall find"....Hope all is well with you

Oh it has an spf25 so now that I think about it wouldn't be a flat matte. Is it more of a semi-matte?

I bought the regular BB cream and I would say it is semi matte. Then there is another product I believe called Matte by Rimmel that the Ladies love. I guess as far as facial makeup, the biggest challenge is finding the line that has a good shade selection or colors close to what you need. L'Oreal is good too.

I have a Kate Moss lipstick in #14, which is a nice matte nude. I also have a nude eyeliner pencil that I wear on my lower inner rim to help me look more awake. Great products!

Yes I agree...I much prefer a semi-matte. Thanks, I will give it a try!

Just signing in to tell you about their Eye Make Up Remover. Absolutely NO oily residue and removes product without and tugging. I buy it in bulk when I can find it--I currently have 10 in my bottom vanity!

I have used a Rimmel blush before and a bronzing powder, I think...I liked them a lot. Thanks for bringing this brand back to my attention! I just ordered some of their foundation and brow pencils from Ulta....

The whole order with shipping was $25...with an eyeshadow palette thrown into the mix as well. I hope their foundation works out for me, lately I haven't had much luck. I figured for the price it is definitely worth a try.
