Recent Rimmel purchases

Hello lovelies!

Until recently, I've never really bought any Rimmel products. But I've been seeing so many people blogging about loving some of their products, so I thought I'd give a few a whirl!
Match perfection blush in 001 light
Stay matte pressed powder in 003 peach glow
Wake me up instant radiance shimmer touch 002 radiant rose
Lasting finish lipstick in 016 heart breaker
Scandaleyes show off mascara 001 black
Match perfection blush
I picked this up in a 3 for 2 offer at Boots, and it has to be one of my favourite blushers at the moment. It's a really beautiful light peach colour and although it's not necessarily the strongest pigment, I love having this in my make up bag. It's currently my day-to-day blush, and I think I'll carry on using this for every day for quite a while.

Stay matte powder
After hearing so many rave reviews about this product, I decided to pick it up and have a look at what it's like. I've fallen onto the bandwagon a little bit, because I've already picked up my second one. It's so lovely, and it even smells quite nice. I don't get an exceptionally shiny face, so I only wear this down the middle of my face but I can really see the difference it makes. Plus, it's super affordable!
Scandaleyes show off mascara
I picked this up a while it was £2 off in Boots as I'm still looking for my favourite mascara. I have quite a few that I like, but I'm still looking for an ultimate favourite! I really like this, especially as the formula works well on my eyelashes and adds volume. I do have to put on quite a few coats to get the look that I want, but I really like the plastic wand. I think I'm leaning towards preferring that type of want because it really singles out my lashes and doesn't leave any clumps :)
Wake me up instant radiance shimmer touch
This was another 3 for 2 purchase which I picked up because I've seen a few reviews for it. I've not got a very big blush collection, I'm not a fan of pinky-pinks, and I thought that this might a nice gentle shimmer that wouldn't be too scary for me! I've worn it quite a few times now and I'm really starting to like it. I still prefer coral shades for blush, but since I've bought this I've bought a few more pinker shades. The liquid formula isn't something that bothers me, because I squeeze a little bit out and dab it on where I would normally wear blusher!
Lasting finish lipstick
I picked this shade of lipstick up in a hope of overcoming my passionate dislike of pink lips. While I love the look on other people, I've never been that confident wearing lipstick. Wearing this and a few similar colours has really helped me out with that, and I'm so glad I picked this up because it's also actually a really nice formula. It's probably my current favourite brand of lipstick that I have! Also, I've found that it has good staying power, as I've worn it a few times when I've been out all day or out for a meal.

I'd love to hear if you have any Rimmel products to recommend, I think I'm falling in love with this brand a little bit!
