I just received a complimentary Rimmel London Vox Box from Influenster to celebrate their Match Perfection Foundation*. The foundation is now available in 25 shades that match 99% of UK skin tones. They also sent the Match Perfection Concealer* which has 6 new shades and their 7 new nude shades of the Stay Matte Liquid Lip Colour.
Thought I would include a little half face shot of just the foundation and then my full face with foundation and concealer. The Match Perfection foundation claims to blend with the skin's real tone instead of masking it. Also described as a weightless, smooth texture its designed to deliver visibly perfected and healthier looking skin with Smart-Tone technology for natural looking skin. It says it has a 24 hour moisture complex, soft-focus powers help reduce imperfections, pores & dark circles and up to SPF 20 so not only is it evening your skin out it has some extra benefits. It says its a medium coverage which I would say if you want a natural base this is good but definitely not full coverage. I did find the shade range pretty good for budget makeup so thumbs up to Rimmel for that and the shade suited my skin pretty well (Light Porcelain 10) and didn't really oxidise which I often get with budget foundations.
The Match Perfection Concealer has been interesting to try out as I never tend to try budget concealers. I did find the brush tip a good alternative to a doe foot applicator but to get the product from the squeezy part of the packaging to the brush wasn't the easiest and I imagine once it starts to get a bit empty it'll be near impossible to get it out. The colour match was really good for me but the shade range is still quite small. Its more of a light to medium coverage which wasn't quite enough to cover any blemish I have at the moment or the vein I have under my eye quite to the level I get from my Nars Creamy Radiant Concealer. But it didn't crease and it super comfortable to wear so I think I need to try it out a bit more before I truly decide if this could make its way permanently into my makeup bag.
I finished off my look with the Rimmel Magnif'eyes eyeshadow palette, Wonder'fully Real mascara (see my previous about them here) and finally the Stay Matte Liquid Lip Colour in Stripped and Be My Baby* to create a slight Ombré lip. They were super pigmented and went on really easily. They're kiss-proof, touch-proof, waterproof; after eating brunch and having drinks it still stayed strong so I'm very impressed in the lasting power of these lipsticks.
Have you tried this Rimmel range out? Let me know what you think! Thank you to Influenster for sending me these products complimentary to try out!
