Rimmel London Lasting Finish Lipstick 050 Paradise Review, Swatches
By Linda
Hello Ladies,
I’m back with another Rimmel London product review. This seems to be one of my favorite drug store brands since they have high quality products for an affordable price. The varieties of shades are pretty good enough to match most of the skin tones from cool to warm. I’m shade NC 41 and it matched perfectly on my skin. The shade I’m about to review is an earthy peach to brown shade with a slight sheen to it. Some of the earthy shades gives a flat look to our lip or rather makes your lip look thinner, hence we need to top it with a gloss or a lip liner. But in case of this shade it’s a little different as compared to other nude/ earthy shades. Lasting finish lipsticks are available at nykaa .com but I’m not sure if this shade is available in India. Let’s know more..

Package, Shade and Texture
This lipstick is packed in a light weight, plastic lipstick container. The shade and the shade number is mentioned at the bottom. There is no other information provided.
The shade is a classic earthy peach/brown with ultra fine shimmer that gives a beautiful sheen on application. It is not intensely pigmented but enough to transfer the shade onto the lips.
It has a smooth creamy texture, very soft on application and moisturizes the lips throughout.
My take on Rimmel London Lasting Finish Lipstick
This shade is more on the warmer side, perfect for all time .I definitely carry this lipstick along with me since it a safe shade, what I mean by safe shade is, if you are not able to makeup your mind as to the shade to apply , then this shade is definitely a saver. You can wear at work/ interview/ wedding /formal /casual functions. I’m in love with this shade. The sheen just gives a chic look , you don’t even need a gloss nor a highlighter to enhance your lips.
It has a slight pleasant fragrance to it but non irritating .A tad bit amount transfer to cups/ glasses but that’s acceptable. (for me at least :D)
I do wear this lipstick along with a lip liner from Rimmel London in the shade Spice, in order to achieve a clean finish. Not highly pigmented as I mentioned. I’m not happy with stay power , it would only last for 3-4 hours if you are not eating and drinking. Retouch is needed. My lips would never dry out on applying this shade. Very comfortable and light on the skin, as it claims.
Pros:
- Wearable Shade for most skin tones and age groups
- Creamy texture
- Glides on smoothly
- Does not bleed
- Moisturizes the lips through out
- Provides slight sheen on application
- Long lasting.
Cons:
- Availability in India
- Poor Staying power, needs retouch
Rating: 4.5/5
Would I repurchase Rimmel London Lasting Finish Lipstick (Shade 050 Paradise)? Definitely Yes
