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)

Amethyst | Gemstone Series

 Amethyst | Gemstone Series  Today is Amethyst. I have to say I started this look a little late in the day and was rushing the beautiful golden hour to get this makeup on and get decent pictures before the sunset.  *If this is the first gemstone look you have seen the others will be linked below, but the idea is creating looks based on gemstones every week and the challenge (not really) using the ColourPop So Jaded palette to create the eye look.  ✖️Brows: Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Gel (Blonde) ✖️Eyes: Mac Cosmetics Paint Pot (Painterly) ColourPop So Jaded Palette (Ametrine, Flourite, & Amethyst) Tarte Cosmetics Big Ego Mascara I started the look with the Ametrine shade right above my crease and blended it out with a blending brush. Then I took the Flourite shade on my inner corner and brow bone as my highlight.  Then, of course, the Amethyst shade in the palette. I patted it on the lid space with my finger before blending it in my actual ...

Doucce Freematic Eyeshadow Pro Palette (Nude) Review

Doucce Freematic Eyeshadow Pro Palette (Nude) Review You may have seen that I received this Doucce palette in my FabFitFun Winter Box . I have actually tried one of their single pans of eyeshadow from a subscription in the past and I did like it and thought it was super pigmented! First of all, I love how compact and cool this freematic palette is. There is small magnets on the back of each shade and the inside of the actual palette is a magnetic board like a Z-Palette. Then I want to mention how I do really like the color layout of this. It is a pretty neutral layout and has shades that everyone has, but the undertone of these are just so different to me. In a good way for sure! They do have other palette options on their website, along with a "build your own palette" option. I will eventually review the highlight (also a bonus!) that came with this, but I want to talk mainly about the 8 eyeshadows. They're just like the single one I received and is very pigm...

Nomad Cosmetics Hudson Valley Palette | Makeup

 It had been too long since I got a palette from Nomad Cosmetics . They have one of the best formulas and I absolutely love when they do darker/fall color stories. I still use the Haunted Europe palette all the time and after using this one I know I'll be just as obsessed with it too. This palette is heavy on mattes with only three metallics. I do love these metallics. The formula is buttery and so pigmented plus the shades really compliment the mattes in this unique color story. The mattes are where it is at. They have some of the best mattes ever! Plus these shades?! You have a neutral side with a touch of greens that are all so toned down and wearable. But you also have those beautiful bold fall colors on the other side. While this was a fall launch and a palette I will be wearing every fall I'm sure. I found this palette to be incredible for the holiday season too. I loved the everyday neutral looks to the glam holiday looks that were perfect for holiday outings. The pigme...
