Rimmel Stay Matte Foundation

**SIGH...RIMMEL AGAIN...** As much as I would love to fill my makeup bag with expensive and divine chanel products, one glance at my bank account tells me I can't really afford to buy make up at all! However, one glance at my face tells me that this is a neccesity here, not a luxury (I am adament that makeup should be tax free!) and therefore I am constantly on the hunt for bargain products that don't make me look like a 13 year old who just discovered makeup for the first time. The balance war between quality and price so far has been won by Rimmel, who offer pretty decent products at a reasonable price that doesn't scare me when I check my bank ...  Read the complete review

Before I went to Tesco to do my weekly shop, I realised to my horror I had ran out of foundation, so unfortunately for me I had to go shopping pasty faced and with hope Tesco had a decent range of foundation. As well as Tesco's own range of make up there was only two other brands of cosmetics Maybelline and rimmel. Since I had used rimmel before I decided upon the stay matt foundation in 001 ivory for £5.09. Packaging I cannot honestly say it was the eye catching design of the foundation what caught my eye. The tube of foundation is of a very simple neutral design. The screw on lid is on the bottom of the tube in a chocolate brown colour, while the ...  Read the complete review

Foundation is something I am very choosey about so I don't mind paying a bit more. This proves its not worse scrimping when it comes to foundation! The claims are that it gives shine control for up to 6 hours and that its medium coverage "No chance to Shine". It is a product that certainly doesn't shine I am quite a fan of matte look foundations so thought I would give this a try. Just don't even bother is my advice. The packaging is basic which is what is expected from the price really. Its cream packaging reminds me of a tester or pro type rather than the finished article. Price £4.99 in Boots and other larger ...  Read the complete review

I bought this product about a year ago, and I've purchased this product since as I loved it so much. What does the promo say? Controls shine for up to 6 hours comfortable matte finish. Medium coverage. You'll have no chance to shine! Shades available Ivory Oatmeal beige Pale biscuit Noisette Rich mocha Deep mocha Espresso Amber Warm honey There are 9 shades available to buy which are reasonable to a product like this, you have a good chance of finding a colour for your skin, I think however they should be more colours for darker people my friend who is Indian struggled finding the right colour ...  Read the complete review

I tried Stay Matte Foundation-Ivory £4.95 from Boots Ah yes yet another trip to Boots called me to this! I was wondering around looking for a new foundation as the last few I had bought were not amazingly good. Now I cannot say that the packaging was anything pretty or attractive at all so I can't say that was what attracted me to this new foundation. It was the fact that I couldn't find my shade in any other brand so I picked this one. So I went home and decided to use this for five days: Day one- My skin was getting used to this new foundation so I wasn't expecting any miracles but suprisingly it ...  Read the complete review
