I love the color! I love the formula! And I love this lipstick. The packaging is adorable.

Great formula for a ds l/s, however the smell is appalling. I loved the colour but binned it after 3 uses as the smell made me feel sick when I opened it - nasty!

In love! I am not that big a fan of drugstore lippies---they usually have an odd taste or weird smell, but this has neither. It is a beautiful cool-toned pink in the tube and translates well on my highly pigmented lips. The color comes off as a muted creamy pink, with purple undertones. It is absolutely moisturizing, as I've found that I am not applying as much lipbalm as I normally do after wearing this for a week. The lipstick is quite longlasting; after four hours it is still on my lips, although not as vibrant as when first applied. I am always looking for the perfect pink lippie, and I think I've foudn it. I would buy this again in a heartbeat.

I thought this would be a pretty, muted pink, but it looked super mauve on me. My mom is into muave lippies, so I passed it on to her. I was just shocked at how totally different it looked in the tube than on my lips. Wanted to love it:(

As some others have said, this color looked promising in the tube but looked purple when I applied it. (I have pale, warm-toned skin.)

I tried in vain to make it work by applying lightly and//or heavily, yet it still looked really purple in a very unflattering way. I could not see any qualities that would earn it the name Vintage Pink, at least not on me.

I also found the scent to be really very strong and unappealing . It's not a yummy scent like the Lasting Finish's cake/candy smell; it's perfume-y, heavy and really bothered me.

I returned it to CVS, and got an extra Airy Fairy Lasting Finish instead. Many good drugstores do take returns since they don't really have testers, so I never hesitate to take back drugstore items that don't work.

I won't be buying lipsticks from the Moisture Renew line, as I don't like that wacky scent.

This color was horrible for me. I should have known. It's purple. Purple lips on yellow skin is pretty much the definition of makeup disaster. This has a very strong scent that I did not enjoy. Not gut-wrenching horrible like L'oreal lipstick but still pretty bad. The formula is fairly creamy and non-drying which is good. For the money this formula isn't bad but this color for anyone who isn't cool toned I think is something to think twice about. Wish I had thought twice before choosing this one.

The color is fantastic! It feels really good on your lips, never drying. And it stays in place, I only have to reapply when I'm drinking or eating something.

My first Rimmel lipstick! Definitely not my last. For the price (I paid $5.00 CND) this is a great deal. Lovely cool-toned pink, I think it would compliment all skin tones. It is very moisturizing for a matte color. I pair it with green/brown/neutral eye looks. It's not a super-bold color but it's noticeable. I highly recommend it ::)

This color is a matte mauvey color. However, unlike other matte lipsticks, this applies very creamy, and it doesn't dry out your lips AT ALL. There is a faint scent, sort of like baby powder, but it doesn't bother me. I really like the cute purple packaging.

This retails for $6.99 at CVS and most drugstores (the cashier overcharged me by scanning a Revlon lipstick I also bought, so I actually paid $8.99 for it) I would buy this lipstick over and over and over again.

Unfortunately, this gorgeous pink/plum color looked very creepy on me. I have an olive skin tone and it looks awful. It's a beautiful color and I'm sure looks better on other people, but not for me. It's very moisturizing though. Guess I'll have to give this one away.

was geared to this product through a you tuber, i was pleasantly surprised my local ds had this line in stock and decided to try it out, and very glad i did since then have gone back and got the colours 180 Sunset, 140 Dreamy, and 420 Crystal Mauve.
and i love the purple packaging, the lipsticks are totally moisturizing, the colour lasts awhile too, so thats a plus in my books.

I picked this lipstick up yesterday from Walmart and I am in LOVE! I finally found my HG lipstick. It is a purpley pink and suits my fair skin tone perfectly. It doesn't make my lips feel dried out and that's why I generally dont wear lipstick. I think it would also work well sheered out with some gloss. And the packaging is so pretty! Give it a try!

This is a really lovely, perfect color. I just love how this color is not too mauve or too pink, but a perfect combo of both. I have light-medium skin NW20 and it's a great match. It's moisturizing and the color payoff is really great. I don't love the taste or smell of it, but it's not awful so it wouldn't deter me from wearing or repurchasing.

I recieved this for free from Allure Magazine. This is a mauve/purpley-pink which does not suit my fair skin very well. These are moisturizing but the scent is just too overpowering for me. It smells of old people/baby powder, I can even smell it after applied. Its just too overpowering for me and I'm not usually one to be turned off by scented lip products. Will not repurchase.

This color is just fantastic. I absolutely love it with all of my heart. This is a muted mauvy pink with a little bit of a beige undertone. This lippy is soft, pigmented and it doesn't dry out my lips at all. I love both the colors I got; this & spotlight beige. Excellent lippy & I will get other colors as well. I think these are comparable or better than mac cremesheens. Love.

I just got this today and I LOVE LOVE it. The color is a simply GORGEOUS plummy pink and very flattering with my medium skin/dark hair. I've been wanting something a little bit more rich and purple-ish but all I've been finding are true purples, and was not loving them. ANYWAY - this is very soothing on the lips, satiny finish and is staying put very nicely, even without liner. Could be worn alone or with gloss, as it isn't too 'flat'.

The packaging is very pretty compared to the regular Rimmel lipsticks too. Give it a shot - or at least test one in the store. Found mine at Walmart.

I think Rimmel's moisture renew lipsticks are one of the best you can buy, brilliant colour payoff, longlasting, moisturising, no stickiness, no strong unpleasant smell and beautiful colours.
This is a muted dusky rose, looks like a berry/plum colour in the stick, but goes on the lips as a very pretty wearable pink for most ages. It isn't a matte, but there is a sheen rather than a shine and it can be easily pepped up with a gloss or worn alone for a very understated look.
I love this, it outdoes several of the high end lipsticks in my opinion,
