It's that time of year where the brands we love release all the vampy, dark lippies and eyeshadows we can't get enough of, in time for Halloween. And Rimmel are no exception! This year they've teamed up with Rita Ora to create the 'Shades of Black' collection.
The first addition to the collection are the 'Oh My Gloss' lipglosses in three new shades. There is a deep burgundy red shade called 'Desire', a navyish blue shade 'Moonlight' and a pure black shade called 'Rita's Black'. These claim to be a non sticky, and highly pigmented formula. I would certainly agree than they aren't sticky or gross feeling on the lips. However, the shade Moonlight lacks the pigmentation for me. No matter how many layers it just looks patchy and meh on the lips. The other two shades are both fully opaque and stunning though.
Next up is their 'Wonder'fully Real Mascara' in Extreme Black and believe me, when they say extreme black, that's exactly what they meant! This is quite a wet formula so can be messy if you don't take your time. For me, this added more length than it did volume, but managed to look natural. It also is great for separating your lashes and coating hard to reach places as the wand is pretty flexible. The only thing I would say is if you add too many layers, it will get a tad clumpy.
Finally, we have a handful of new nail polishes, six to be precise. The collection consists of one matte polish, and 5 deep and darker colours. The three I have are 'Matte Black', 'Midnight Ting' which is a deep navy blue and 'Darkest Desires' which is a very dark, plum red.. Honestly, I've tried a lot of matte polishes, and never been impressed with them. But this one has totally shocked me. It dries down completely matte and opaque! The other two polishes are also highly pigmented with Midnight Ting being my favourite shade of the two.

Wow! I certainly couldn't use anything too dark; especially on my lips as I'm so fair and things like that just look stupid on me. I love the nail colours though (:

Hi, I love the red liquid lipstick but could never wear the other colours. Love the nail varnish percent for the toes over the winter months.
ReplyDeleteWow those lip colours are stunning! Perfect for haloween!

I didn't know Rita Ora had a new collection with Rimmel London ! I had loved her previous one! The lipgloss look amazing! xx corinne
ReplyDeleteI’m obsessed with black, and this sounds like the perfect collection for me! I love the colour of the nail varnish shades, and the burgundy lip gloss is gorgeous..
ReplyDeleteI love Rimmel products. I would love to try the burgundy coloured lip gloss since that's the only colour that'd usually suits me most. And can I just say, I love the colour of your nails in the picture! Great post :) x Ain
ReplyDeleteI love the colours! I've always liked the idea of matte nail varnishes, but have never found one that I've liked and came out well so I'll have to try the Midnight Ting nail polish - it sounds like the perfect colour! Great review x
ReplyDeleteYour swatches are amazing! I'm in love with the blue lippie! I just wish I could pull something like that off! :( amazing post! Halloween vibes galore!

The nail colours looks incredible cant wait to vamp it up a bit this month! #bloggerstribe
ReplyDeleteOhhh I love the sound of that matte black polish! I've only ever used a matte top coat and I've never quite mastered it properly! I love the idea of a mascara that really adds length but that's a pity it goes clumpy if you use a few coats

This is so glamorous! I wanna try Midnight Ting nail polish, Moonlight navy blue lip gloss and Rita's Black lip gloss :) I've been getting back into black and dark colors like I used to do in high school. Great collection.
ReplyDeleteI love these colors! I think I'd probably try out the mascara since I need more length than volume. I love that extremely black mascara color!
