Rimmel Jelly Gloss

I used to wear a lot of lip gloss when I was younger, but now I’m a bit older I tend to go more with lipstick. I do still own the odd lip gloss though, and one that’s still lurking in my make-up bag is Rimmel Jelly Gloss. ~What is it?~ This is lip gloss which comes in a tube. I think Lancome were the first brand to do this, their product juicy tubes are still a bestseller. Of course whenever a premium brand makes a product that takes off the lower end brands like Rimmel are soon to follow with their version of the same thing, and now lip gloss in a tube is widely available. This Jelly lip gloss, is so called because of it’s jelly-like ...  Read the complete review

I'm not the world's biggest fan of lipgloss. I tend to find that it oozes over the face making your skin look greasy and acts as a magnet to hair and so impractical in windy weather. However this opinion was shattered by my discovery of the jelly gloss. I received it as part of a promotional offer at Superdrug as it came free with mascara. At first it all seemed rather difficult as there was a great array of colours and it was a bit of a nightmare for some one as fickle as me. However my recommendation would be to choose a tube containing a translucent colour without shimmer as these look more natural and can be worn during the day. The tint you choose should ...  Read the complete review

~ Rimmel Jelly Gloss ~ ~ Kiss Me Quick! ~ I usually buy Rimmel Cool Matte Mousse Foundation and I went into super drug to pick some more up to find that they had an offer on - Free Jelly Lip Gloss when you buy selected Rimmel products - well if something is free you don’t refuse, whether you really wear lip gloss or not, I’m not really a lip gloss lover, I forget to keep re-applying it and prefer lip balms. ~ The Price ~ Although I had it free (not sure if this offer is still on at super drug) it’s usually around £3.99. I wouldn’t pay this for a lip gloss, but then again I wouldn’t pay any amount for a lip gloss although recently I have ...  Read the complete review

I have a tube of this lip gloss in my handbag as it is one of the lip glosses that I use a lot while out and about. There are lots of different colours available in the range, but the one that I am going to predominantly review is the clear type. In terms of the colour, it is a clear lip gloss with hints of glitter. When applied to your lips, it creates an ultra-shiny effect that shimmers when the light hits in. The overall effect isn't too glittery though (more shimmery), so it's a good look for wearing during the daytime. The lip gloss tube requires you to squeeze the lip gloss out, so it's probably easiest to apply it with your fingers. This ...  Read the complete review

I just found this gloss whilst digging around in my make-up drawers. I was given it by my mum a while ago because she'd somehow acquired it and doesn't like wearing lip glosses. I gratefully took it, although wasn't convinced I would like it and as such I've only really worn it on a couple of occasions. To look at, this gloss is nothing special. It comes in a 10ml tube with silver writing and is applied by squeezing the gloss through a hole in the slanted nozzle. Everything about the packaging screams cheap. I know Rimmel are not a high-end brand, but they are well-respected for "drug store" makeup and as such I would expect packaging to look a ...  Read the complete review
