Rimmel Lasting Finish Mineral Enriched Foundation

I have been searching for the 'perfect' foundation for months in preparation for my wedding next week. I have literally tried every 'long lasting' foundation I could until I stumbled upon this product last weekend. I was a bit dubious about it as it only cost £5.46 - a lot less then some of the other leading brands. However when I tried this I was really shocked at just how good it was. Coverage: My skin is combination, it can be oily and dry and I am prone to the odd blemish. This foundation is slightly thicker then some I have tried and therefore gave me good coverage over my blemishes without having to use concealer. I thought this would mean my ...  Read the complete review

So its the usual story with me... my shopping addiction gets the better of me, thus rendering me unable to leave Boots until I had picked up a new foundation. I actually picked this up as it was on the cheaper end of the scale, and I wanted a darker foundation to blend into my usual one (as I have a somewhat pitiful suntan, and need my foundation to match it). **Product** This foundation is from Rimmel's 'Lasting Finish' range, and is a 'Mineral Enriched' version (not to be confused with another kind of Lasting Finish foundation that they have previously marketed). The product currently comes in 10 different shades (with the ...  Read the complete review

I need to wear foundation every day as my skin is naturally quite shiny and blotchy, I look pretty grim without a faceful of slap on so having a good batch of make up is essential. I tend to chop and change the brand I use in order to test them out and eventually find the one that suits me best. At the weekend I decided to give Rimmels Lasting Mineral foundation a go due to the price and the fact it's a brand I know and can usually trust...at least I thought I could. The foundation is sold in tubes of 50ml and costs just under £6 which is what attracted me to it initially, on using the product however I wasnt very impressed. The foundation is quite ...  Read the complete review

I decided to try this new foundation after reading all the media coverage about 'mineral make-up' in the last year or two. I had previously only seen more expensive brands available, which tend to be out of my price range, so I was delighted to hear that good old Rimmel had started to make a reasonably priced alternative. This foundation is available in 5 shades, which are all various shades of beige (note to Rimmel: remember your customers with dark skin!). I bought the Soft Beige and the True Nude, at £5.99 each. I always buy two shades, as sometimes I have tanned skin and sometimes pale, you see, in case you were wondering. :) Having two ...  Read the complete review

My foundation ran out and as my skin has been quite bad lately I decided I wanted something that would give me better coverage. Usually I opt for a cheap (£3) foundation and mix it with some moisturiser so that I even out my skin tone without looking overly made up. I had a look at the makeup section in Asda rather than going into to town, I would have made the trip to town had I not found anything in Asda that took my fancy though. I spotted this straight away and my search was over. Although this is quite a small tube for its price I don't think it is too bad. A tube contains 30ml and costs £5.85, on further inspection of prices they are all roughly the same ...  Read the complete review
