Stay Matte Make Up

I am always looking for good cosmetics, needless to say I have several drawers of cosmetics. I found a stay matte liquid make up by Rimmell London. I tried the Nude 102 for normal to oily skin. I was not impressed with the coverage, my skin felt oily and the make up felt heavy. Also most of it wore off on my phone by the days end.  In my opinion their statement of last 6 hours shine free is false. The tube I purchased was a 1 fluid ounce tube and you had to squeeze it out like a hand lotion, I am partial to the pumps or better yet the cream compacts. I like most of the Rimmell products in the past I have tried, but the stay matte foundation is one I will not try again. I was really disappointed with this product and probably will give it to my niece to try, for me I am done with it. I have to give this a thumbs down.

  2. Thanks for the warning; I'll be sure to avoid this one! I hate make-up that feels like make-up, or anything oily or cake-y. Yuck. Great review, thank you!

  3. Thanks for the heads up. I have never tried their products, nice to know which ones to stay away from.

  4. What's the point of wearing foundation that just ends up on your phone! Thanks for the heads up on this product!

  5. Thanks for sharing, I hate makeup on my phone or anyone else's that I might have to use during the day while at work!!

  6. Make up should remain on the skin and not transfer off on your phone. Have you tried the mineral makeup? I love it. Sorry this one was not a perfect match for you. Hope your neice likes it more.

    1. I have tried the Bare Minerals line and I LOVE it, matter of fact I keep meaning to review it :D Thanks guys!! xox

  7. Sounds disappointing. I want my foundation on my face, not my phone, LOL! And I want it to be shine-free. One of my recent finds that seems to be working well is Wet n Wild Ultimate Cover (I have reviewed it here).

  9. It's so hard to find a good foundation when you have oily skin. I haven't tried this brand, but I will not bother with it if I see it, thanks!

  10. I have never tried Rimmel products, I will definitely stay away from this one. The coverage sounds poor with the oily, heavy feel. Sorry it was such a disappointment. Thanks for the honest review.
