I'm always looking for cheap make up however after trying many cheap foundations I realised that if I wanted good quality I would have to pay for it. This product cost me £6.49 in Boots. Rimmel isn't a brand I would normally use so I was unsure what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised with the results. I think the bottle is lovely. It looks very stylish, it stands out on the shelves and you get a lot in it. I particularly liked the idea of 25 hour coverage. I'm not one of these people who spends my lunch breaks in the toilets touching up my make up. I put it on in the morning and I'm lucky if I even look in the mirror never mind touch up my make up until I get home at night.

When I first used this product I noticed it had a pleasant smell to it. I also liked the texture. It was more runny than other foundations I have used which made it much easier to apply in my opinion. After application I thought it looked great and smelled good too but when I went into a different light I noticed that my neck was considerably lighter than my face. I'm quite pale and I bought this product in Ivory which is the lightest they have so perhaps this product would be better for someone with darker skin. However, I am pleased to say that even though my face was darker than my neck it didn't look orange at all which is a problem I have encountered with other foundations.

Although I'm lucky enough I don't get spots very often I do have quite bumpy skin so I was happy to see this product made my skin look really smooth and it felt very soft.

Although I can't comment on whether this product does provide 25 hour coverage because I don't wear make up for 25 hours at a time. I have noticed that I can wear this product all day and I do not need to touch it up.

I have only had this product for a short time but I am very impressed with everything except for the colour. If I had darker skin or if Rimmel provided it in a lighter colour I would buy it again. Unfortunately it is just too dark for my skin colour.
