Rimmel Apocalips and Showoffs


I've been horrible about blogging, but to be fair- my keyboard was on the frits. I've had these little guys on my hands for a while now, but unfortunately I am just getting around to making a post about them. I had originally bought the Rimmel Apocalips online from ASOS when I saw basically ever beauty personality raving about them in the UK. These beauties are supposed to be the equivalent of a liquid lipstick and who doesn't want the pigmentation of a lipstick without feeling anything on your lips!
Right after I got the Apocalips in the post- the Show offs started to make their debut across the pond here in America. To be completely honest- I was super bummed with the name change! I was glad I bought the two that I did from ASOS because- let's be honest- Apocalips is such an awesome name for a product! After my stubbornness wore off and my curiosity got the best of me- I picked up two more of the Rimmel Show offs from Walgreens. I think that they are only available at Walgreens- but I could be wrong.

Current Face Products: Maybelline Fit Me Review

I don't normally wear a lot of face makeup, however I had been on the lookout for a foundation that I could wear when I wanted a little more coverage. It was a tricky task because I have sensitive skin and there aren't a lot of foundations out there that don't make me breakout or make my skin even drier. I tried these products on a whim and they have all become my new favorites.


Maybelline Fit Me Foundation in 130 Buff Beige : $7.99
Maybelline Fit Me Foundation in 15: $6.99
Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder in  001 Translucent: $5.99

The only way that I can get any foundation to not look cake-y on me, it to use a makeup sponge. Everyone raves about the beauty blender but it's an item that I didn't feel like splurging on. I bought an exact dupe on ebay for under $2 and I feel that it works wonders.

I'm currently working on a complete review for the liquid foundation and liquid concealer. I would like to wear it a couple more times so that I have a better idea as to how it wears and its coverage. 
Sneak Peak: I'm really liking it so far.
