This is a great shimmery, champagne nude. I am very fair complected and most nude lipsticks don't look good on me. For some reason this one looks really nice. I put it on over Bobbi Brown's beige lip liner and it looks great and lasts all day.
This lipstick is also great for perking up your other lipsticks that are too matte, or too dark. Just put a light coat of this on top and it will transform them.

i just bought this lipstick today after watching a girl's youtube video recommending it.
EW. i dont like it at all. it makes my lips look like a weird gold ugly color. i thought it would make my lips a little nude since the color is really light and all, but hell no! its really ugly especially with my skintone which is kinda pale. and the smell?? oh my god. i took it off right away.

Rimmel lippies - what can I say? Muddy colours, drying consistency and average staying power. Buy these only if you see them on special dirt cheap. The only good thing is that the colour you see in the tube is the colour you get on your lips - but then you end up with flakey lips - go figure.

This is a great summer shade and it was just what I was looking for for a natural looking bronzed glow look. It's a champagney gold frost and applied lightly it's very natural. I sometime smudge a little BeneFit Gilded pencil in as well for a more dramatic look. The formula is ok, it's Rimmel so it's pretty decent, and while it doesn't stay on forever, it moisturizes pretty well. The packaging is so-so. The tube will come open easily if you aren't careful, but it's cute. Anyway, make sure your lips are exfoliated well before applying, it's got a bit of frost to it.

I really adore Rimmel's lipstick. I never though I would like them, but they are fantastic for $4! This is the color I have been looking for lately. It is a nice, gorgeous natural color. I love the scent, it's is slightly fruity. I know some people won't like it, but I love it!

A gorgeous sheer, frosted bronze/nude with touches of gold. Not garish, the frost is just right. I adore this color, it looks perfect on my pigmented lips next to my ppp NC15 skin, not to mention it’s the perfect color for when I’m trying to fake a tan. Looking at it in the tube I was afraid it might wash me out, but it’s too sheer to do that.



COLOR COMPARISONS:

I find it’s very similar to Revlon’s “Champagne on Ice” S/L lipstick...however, “Frosted” doesn’t have a pink tint to it like “Champagne...” does.

“Honey Talks”It’s also very similar to Cover Girl’s “Honey Talks” wetslick lipgloss (“Honey Talks” is too shimmery and opaque though so it washes me out).

“High Tea”In addition, it’s similar to MAC’s “High Tea” lipstick, but is more frosted and doesn’t gather in the winkles in your lips.
“Tanarama” It’s also in the same family as MAC’s “Tanarama” lipstick but Rimmel’s “frosted” has more color and is more bronze.



great with a spice, natural or brown liner. typical rimmel fruity smell. staying power leaves something to be desired, but the formula is moisturizing so what do you expect for $4? feels/wears like a balm instead of a lipstick and application is easily done without a mirror. no worries as it wears away, it doesn’t leave behind any funky shimmer or color. ugly, chunky packaging, but i don’t really care, it’s $4, it’s moisturizing, easy to apply and in my overall top 2 nude lipsticks.



For reference:
NC15, light green eyes, pigmented textured lips, light brown/dark blonde hair
