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)

Skincare & Makeup Haul

Skincare & Makeup Haul I've never done a "haul" on my blog before, but I thought it would be a cool idea plus it would be a sneak peak of things that I'll be trying out for future reviews.  Skincare: I have been loving trying out new skincare items and although my skincare bin is a little full at the moment there was a few things I was running low on and a few things that I couldn't pass on!  I was running low on both makeup removing wipes and micellar water, so I picked these up at Target. I often use a moisturizer from the Simple brand, but I've never tried their wipes or micellar water before. It's cheaper in the long run buying the two pack of wipes, but I do hope these work good!  My nose has once again started getting clogged with blackheads. I've been trying out a few different foundations and wearing makeup just about everyday and my skin just isn't use to that. After taking a two week break from makeup a...

July Monthly Beauty Favorites

  July Monthly Beauty Favorites  I've been keeping my fingernails pretty naturally and trying to get them more healthier and longer looking, but I got this Kokie nail polish in an Ipsy bag a couple months ago and I've been using it a lot this summer on my toes. It's a really pretty periwinkle color. This is in the shade Heavenly. I actually bought this awhile back and used it (at least the body mist, as you can tell) so much. I've recently started using them again and have fallen in love with the scent once again. It's a mixture of vanilla and coconut. Those are my favorites!   FACE: For face care, I've still been using this  tarte Rainforest of the Sea Deep Dive Gel Cleanser . I absolutely  love this stuff! This is a "must have" and "holy grail" for me! It has helped my face problems (I still have some issues of course, but it's improved since using this religiously) so much and doesn't dry my skin out too much a...

Ricky's Cult Crushes // May 2018

Ricky's Cult Crushes // May 2018  You may already know, but I moved all of my subscriptions to my beauty channel: AllyBrianne   You can check out my unboxings there of all of my monthly and seasonal subscriptions.  The reason I'm posting this blog today is because I just got this months Ricky's Cult Crushes in the mail last week. I planned on filming a quick unboxing to post Sunday, but my weekend got away from me so here we are. This is only my second month receiving this subscription. I'm up in the air about it honestly. Last months ( Ricky's Cult Crushes // April 2018 ) was a good box, but sadly the pans in the eyeshadow palette kept falling out! You can see all that business in the video! I was disappointed because the shadows were great.. The packaging not so much.  If you don't know what  Ricky's Cult Crushes is... It is a $11 (now $14, I'll explain) monthly subscription that has mainly beauty items. This is a subscription throug...
