Rimmel London Stay Matte Mousse // Foundation Review

Rimmel London Stay Matte Mousse // Foundation Review


This foundation might be old news, but since I have it and said awhile back I would do a review on it, here I am! This is definitely more of an oldie, but I wouldn't necessarily say "goodie" if I'm being quite honest. That factor is the reason it has taken awhile for this review as well. I just don't like it. 
A year or two ago, some YouTubers raved of this foundation as one of their favorite drugstore foundations! I can't remember who all did, but the one that comes to mind is Kathleen Lights. I usually love her recommendations, but this wasn't one. Everyones skin type is different so definitely keep that in mind. I'm also just not a fan of mousse formulas. I honestly feel like I can't breathe while applying them and to top it off usually I can't get decent coverage with mousse formulas unless I use my hands.. Which I don't like. I prefer a sponge, but even a brush is better than straight up using my hands. The coverage is more of a medium, but can be built up you'll just look and feel a little heavier on your face. So from far away and/or pictures that are at a distance it doesn't look too bad, right? 


Then you zoom it up and it looks like the grand canyon. Crease nation for sure! I can't figure this foundation out. You guys know that I give each foundation a fair shot. Different primers, concealers, powders, setting sprays, etc. are used to try to find the best fit. With this foundation I got the same results every time. It also didn't matter if I used less product! These pictures are right after makeup application, but the wear time is just another downwards spiral. The shade wasn't bad and that's the best thing I can say about this foundation. I hate to be so brutal with a review, but after the Jouer foundation review... I'm more cut throat with these. There is too many good formulas out there to have so many crap ones lately! If you are looking for a GOOD matte, long-wearing, and excellent coverage drugstore foundation, try the Maybelline SuperStay! Let me know if you've had better results with this foundation than I have had.. I promise, more cheerful and better reviews are coming! XO Ally 

I give the Rimmel London Stay Matte Mousse Foundation a whopping 2/10 (only for the shade and decent coverage.. Just too many flaws) 

I used the shade: fair ivory
Skin Tone: Fair with neutral undertones
Skintype: Combo-to-dry

IF you are STILL interested in this foundation after this review you can get yours at Target for $3.29 (that price for a reason)

Tower 28 Beauty | Makeup

 To the brand that has opened my eyes to a creative outlet while thinking of my skin all the time. Tower 28 Beauty has proved to me that you can have fun with makeup while taking your skin into consideration the entire time. While it's still fun to dip into all my other makeup I have found so much joy in my lightweight makeup ways. The shift happened after trying more cream products and Tower 28 has been one of them. I eyed the beauty of this brand for a while and then took the plunge with their cream bronzer, Bronzino in the shade Sun Coast (the lightest to go with my fair complexion), Beach Please Balm Blush in the shade Power Hour , and a couple of their ShineOn Lip Jellies (Almond & Cashew) .  Their creams are balms so you get a full shine to your look. They not only make your skin look glossy and healthy but also vibrant with the pigment. The blushes really pack a punch in pigment and can be worn as a flush of color or built-up. The bronzer is a little less pigmented th

Beauty Tuesday

For my first " Beauty Tuesday", I thought I would start it off with my May Ipsy bag. If you're not familiar with Ipsy, it's a monthly subscription bag with 4-5 full and/or sample size beauty products. This June marks two years that I've received a bag. Even though some bags are hit or miss, I've continued to be subscribed so I can try out new items. I feel like Ipsy has really upped their game this year and I've loved every bag I've gotten. I'll be sharing my bag with you every month with my own personal review of the bag itself, and each product in it. I'll also blog about how certain makeup wears, feels, and my own opinion of the product. The same for skincare products, and how they work with my skin type.  I hope you enjoy my May 2017 Glam Bag (If you're interested in subscribing to Ipsy's monthly Glam Bag, I'll post the link down below). I'm more into Ipsy for the actual products and not the bags, but I'll admit the ba

Alamar Cosmetics Spanglish | Makeup

I've been loving Alamar since it started and I love to see how far they have come. It's an indie brand I will always recommend so to then get their products in Boxycharm or Boxy Pop Up sales its a win win! That's how I got my Spanglish palette . You can already see this is an Ally palette by the purples! It's a gorgeous one with buttery mattes and stunning metallics. I also appreciate the subtle browns while also having the pops of color too. I found the color story pretty, but also odd. It's not one you see a lot but it does work. I have also found myself creating unique shades by mixing shades together. It's definitely a cute summer moment that you won't be disappointed with.  Swatches left to right: Pero Like, Eres Un Show, Tiene Swing, Guao, Ay Que Cute, Jajaja, Muy Excited, & Ponte Hyper.  Did you miss these blogs?  Lizzie McGuire x ColourPop | Makeup KVD Beauty Edge of Reality | Makeup Beautbean x Shroud It's Freakin' Bats | Makeup I als
