Rimmel London Lasting Matte Foundation

I really like this foundation and is currently my go to one :)

Pros: - Doesn't make my skin oily, which is a big issue with me as I have super oily skin - Great coverage - Love the texture - Easily blend-able - Can build up - Comes in a variety of tones - Very affordable

Cons: - If you apply too much it does become 'cakey' - Can feel heavy at times - Can transfer easily Would I buy it again? ... Yes

Would i recommend it to others? ... Only if they want a high coverage foundation. I wouldn't recommend this to someone who doesn't like to wear too much makeup (I feel this foundation needs to be paired with contouring kits in order for the face to not appear one-toned or bland).

I'm now on a reduced income and I had to find a cheaper foundation than my favourite Clinque. This foundation is awesome, it spreads evenly over my skin and leaves me with a polished base.

This is a amazing product for such a small cost in store at farmers it is only $19nzd so worth it. I find it light weight and easy to wear. But if I apply in the morning then set it with the stay matte powder by mid day I have to blend it out abit as it goes quite patchy but then it lasts all day from there on. So easy to remove.

I bought this from Kmart on special for $12.50! I really liked the mousse texture and found it blended in nicely on my skin. I put it on with foundation brush but then swiped over with my fingers to get a more even look. I was surprised with how little I used. It stayed on really well as my skin is more dry than oily. I did however put a little powder over my chin and nose ass these are the places my foundation wears off over the course of a day. This really helped the staying power, I found the coverage really good too and I would definitely buy this again even if its not on special.

This foundation is definitely one of my new loves. The coverage is phenomenal and the formulation is so lightweight on the skin i forget im wearing foundation ! I find that you get a super long wear out of it used with a primer and setting powder but works fine without and will generally last around 6 hours before starting to look oily (:

I absolutely love this foundation! It has great coverage and would recommend it as a great dupe for high end products at that cheaper price! I find that if I'm having a good skin day I have no need for concealer, I can just use this product on it's own with some powder in my shiny areas. A primer or something similar is needed for a full lasting day, if it is used with a primer for me it normally last my full day of University (6-8 hours) with no touch up and I have combination skin.

i ordered this foundation after hearing so much about it on the makeup obsessives facebook page. i do find that the formula is quite thick, and i haven't found the perfect way to apply it just yet! i do find that it tends to cake up around my nose, but i do have very dry skin on my nose, everywhere else it doesn't cake up. a little goes a very long way so be sure not to squeeze out too much at once :)

Well this product is soo matte you really only need to use the smallest bit. I would really recommend to use your fingers cleaned as a brush and espically a beauty blender as too much product make you look really cakey. This foundation is for people who have pink under tones as its a really pink foundation and stands out maybe you could use more bronzer to make it look more to a yellow under tone like I have :)

I love this foundation if I want to have a matte face all day, I use a flat top brush and I struggle a little bit to apply this foundation as it very thick and full coverage and basically instantly goes Carey on my face, so I omly need a very small amount! Very good but though, if I am doing an ASOS Orfer I add it to my cart. As it is often on sale for roughly 10 NZD

I do love this product, I use it most times when i am applying my make up. It goes on smoothly and it had great coverage. It's so affordable in store and on line as well. When I bought it I was wondering if it were any good because it was so cheap, but it definitely is good value for money. One thing I must say I don't like is that it is a bit too matte. After awhile the foundation does seep into pores showing your pores more visibly.
