Hello gorgeous ladies,

Rimmel London has released an all-new lipstick range called “The Only 1 Lipstick” and these lipsticks are supposed to be the only lipsticks you will ever need! That sounds like a tall claim, right? Especially for lipstick lovers who cannot stay loyal to one brand or one formulation! Well, let’s find out if that’s just a fancy claim or stands true to its name. So today, I’ll be reviewing the shade “It’s A Keeper.”
Rimmel London The Only Lipstick It’s A Keeper

The perfect balance of high impact colour, moisture, all day comfort and staying power. Slanted lipstick bullet for an effortless application.

Price:

My Experience with Rimmel London The Only 1 Lipstick- It’s A Keeper:

Packaging: The lipsticks come packaged in a sleek black tube with a pointed fancy top bearing the Rimmel logo on it. It also has a band of colour which is colour-coded to the lipstick shade. The packaging is sturdy and definitely looks more high-end, but the cap does not shut with a click sound! My major complaint is that it’s actually quite difficult to apply the lipstick neatly with the flat-top bullet shape as I prefer a traditional bullet way more than this one.
Packaging

Color:  “It’s A Keeper” is a beautiful pink-y n*de shade with slight mauve-y undertones. This shade is perfect for this time of the year and will be totally adored by coloured n*de lipstick lovers.

Pigmentation and Texture: The formulation of this lipstick is absolutely stunning. It is incredibly smooth, almost like a moisturising lip balm but with a lipstick’s pigmentation. It truly glides onto the lips with ease, delivering colour and moisture in one. This creamy lipstick has a satin finish and never looks dry on the lips; the formula feels comfortable and light to wear on the lips.

Smell: Like most Rimmel lipsticks, this range also has a fruity scent which can be overpowering for some, but personally, I don’t mind that at all.

Longevity: The winning aspect of this lipstick is the longevity! This baby lasted so well on the lips that it was only after 4-5 hours (with snacks and beverages) that I needed to check up on the colour. All I needed was a touch as opposed to a full reapplication. The lipsticks wear away beautifully on the lips and do not feather away or fade unevenly.
