Rimmel London Lasting Matte Foundation

using this for the first time ever today and so far I LOVE it!!!!! it is so nice and matte. easy to apply and a little really does go a long way!! the only downfall I could say about this product is that it has a strange smell but that wont stop me from continuing to use:)

When I use regular foundations, my skin gradually tends to get super oily and shiny. Sick of this happening, I endeavoured to find a nice matte foundation and came across this on ASOS for only around $12. It is a lovely mousse consistency and applied very nicely to my face and was so light that I didn't feel like I had anything on. It gave me a perfect matte finish for about 8 hours! So impressed!

When I purchased the first time I accidentally got the wrong colour (it was the lightest, and im a medium gal!) so I ended up using that as a concealer/highlighter - AMAZING

WHen I brought the RIGHT shade for me, I loved it! Personally I prefer their long lasting 25 hr foundation but this was a good alternative!

I have finally found a foundation that stops the oil factory appearing on my face!

I have such oily skin that foundations slide off, it's gross. But this one it stays on from 7am to 5pm without needed to top up with powder.

I have been applying small dots straight on my face then buffing in with a beauty blender, it covers well but in some spots since it's so thick it doesn't blend as well so I'm gonna try rubbing it in with my fingers first as someone's suggested.

You don't need a lot of this so the tube will last for ages, I've found the shade 100 perfect for my yellow toned pale skin. Will definitely repurchase this beauty

I was lucky enough to have this gifted to me by a fellow BR member and was super excited to try especially with the fabulous reviews!

I can honestly say this has opened my eyes to cheaper foundation and definitely made me more open minded to trying other options!

I love the texture of this product, its so beautiful, fluffy and moussey. Alone it gives a beautiful full coverage with an almost air brushed effect.. Its not at all cakey and blends beautifully.

I love this even more mixed in with some CC cream and some strobe cream.. It makes the most dreamy concoction for the face.

The fact that this product is great alone and can be used in conjunction with other products for alternative finishes makes it an absolute must have in my opinion especially for the price! This wont break the bank and it certainly wont disappoint!

I love this foundation with a passion. I purchased it a couple of weeks ago, and took a risk with it after hearing great things and I am in love with it!

The packaging is very cute, and very much suits rimmels style of makeup, the tube is a good size and has plenty of product in it. The foundation is super creamy, and goes on like a dream. It lasts throughout the day, and does not melt off my face, but stays set in place from morning until night. I have an oily skin type, and when I am wearing this foundation you would not know it!

If I were to compare this foundation to another, it is very much like loreals dream matte mousse. However I find that rimmel's one lasts longer during the day, and has a lot more product.

Overall I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a matte finish with medium to full coverage. It is a great affordable foundation.

I wear this everyday, simply haven't found anything better in this price range.

Firstly, texture. I am used to wearing quitethick foundations in order to try and provide full coverage of my acne and acne scarring- This is the lightest foundation I have ever found that actually still works! It's a nice, smooth, mousse foundation, which does not cake on like other foundations I could mention. It's super easy to apply, I don't even bother using a brush for this, just gently use my fingers and it goes on nice and evenly.

Secondly, it is matte. Which is fantastic for people like me with oily skin and acne- where dewey foundations just tend to highlight my skin problems, I think this makes them a lot less obvious. Also, because of this matte quality I have found it stays on much better than other products, even in summer when my face is oily AND sweaty!

Price- I have been using this daily for two months, and I still have half a tube left! This is because you seriously only need a tiny amount to provide decent coverage. So it's also a great price!

I was recommended by a friend to try this, and I'm so glad I did. I now recommend it too!

I love this foundation and it's the one I find myself reaching for every single day. It has a nice full coverage with a matte finish, it's a mousse formula and feels light as a feather on the skin, its super easy to work with and blends with minimal effort. I set it with a powder and it lasts the full day at work. The packaging is simple but effective, it's in a squeeze tube which is perfect as its a thicker consistenty so it's really easy to get the product out and control how much you are using. The only downside is that the colour range is very limited and the shade I have isn't a perfect match but it's still close enough to be wearable.
