Rimmel Foundation Review ♡



I was so excited to open the October edition of Company Magazine and find a sample for the new Rimmel Stay Matte Foundation! I don't wear foundation on a daily basis but I like to if I'm going out somewhere because I feel like I'v made more of an effort and my face looks nicer. Last Sunday I went to a christening (See THIS post for a OOTD) so I tried it out and this is what I thought! 



This foundation is a really nice texture. It is smooth and applies nicely to the skin. It reminds me of the Rimmel BB Cream but with more coverage. I think the texture is like a mix between the Rimmel BB Cream and the Maybeline Dream Matte Mousse which I also love. The sample was in the shade 100 Ivory which luckily was perfect for my skin but I haven't seen it in a shop yet so don't known if they do many different shades. It is lightweight and with some concealer very easily makes your skin look perfect. I didn't go shihny until towards the end of the day and it was a warm day so I was very impressed. It is very natural looking which is what Rimmel were looking for with the line 'Cake no more'. It is in boots for £5.99 which I definitely think is reasonable if your looking for a good drug store foundation.


Maybeline Dream Matte Mousse- £7.69
Rimmel BB Cream- £6.99
Rimmel Stay Matte- £5.99
(All prices are from Boots)

I know the colours aren't the same but you can see the similar textures in this picture.

Overall I think that this is a very nice and affordable foundation that I would buy in the future
