Hey there! Monica here :> It’s been a while since we last posted a make-up review so we thought why not do now! Today’s review is going to be on this Rimmel Provocalips. I do not intend this review to be long winded and so I’ll just jump right in on the important points ;) Oh and I’ll divide it into different sections and I’ll write in point form so it is easier to read :>

I have 3 shades:

730 Make your Move (Peachy Nude)

230 Kiss Fatal (Vampy Plum)

310 Little Minx (Bright Fuchsia Pink)

Formula:

Lip Colour (Step 1):

  • Very liquid-y but the texture is really smooth (Ensure to hold the product properly, it can spill)

  • Needs some time to set and along the process it can get really tacky

  • it smells like plastic/chemicals

  • once it sets/dries, on its own it is transfer proof (ensure to apply evenly and stretch your lips a little bit so the colour fills the lines and it won’t crack after it dries). Dries to a matte finish (just the application of the lip colour)

  • The first point of fading is from the inner mouth

Lock &Shine (Step 2):

  • Thicker formula and has a balmy feel onto the lips

  • Does not impart any colour

  • Looks shinny upon application and fades throughout

  • Smells really GOOD like a good blend of fruity and floral notes.

Longevity:

  • I did not wear it for the full 16 hours but it lasted on me looking fairly decent (no bleeding and the colour is still generally even) for at least 8-10 hours

  • Highly depends on the type of food eaten/ how many times you eat with this lipstick on.

Packaging:

  • Longer than usual lipsticks but it is thinner.

  • Secured that the products won't spill

  • Very sturdy

Pros:

  • Long lasting lip colour

  • Easy Application

  • No need for reapplication if applied evenly at first

  • Good selection of shades

Cons:

  • Very Hard to Remove (Need an oil-based make up remover)

  • Could look dry on really dry lips

  • Doesn’t stay very long if you’ve been eating oily food

Overall Thoughts:

I love this lip product! If only these were reasonably priced and easily available in our local drugstores I might have hoarded more! There is a pretty good selection of colours to choose from and the formula is amazing! Perfect for those days you need a long lasting lipstick!
