Rimmel Apocalips in Big Bang

 

I think everyone has heard the hype about Rimmel's new Apocalips Lip Lacquer. I have read multiple blogs exclaiming over this lacquer and I've been waiting patiently to hear anything on when it will be released here in the states. I was doing a little research online and found that ASOS would ship to the US...for free! So of course I couldn't resist. I ended up ordering Big Bang, which is really branching out for me. I've been looking for a gorgeous red lip color and I've heard raves on this color.

First off, I'm very impressed with ASOS. I ordered on the 24th and received the package on the 2nd. Seeing as it came from the UK, that's very quick shipping. I have never ordered anything from ASOS but I will have to browse around in the future.

 

Please disregard the smeary stains, I'm a bit messy.

 

On to the Apocalips...I'm a bit torn on this product. The color pigmentation is amazing and the formula is so smooth, not sticky at all. It smells lovely, but it's messy. Or atleast for someone like me who is messy to begin with. I pranced around the house wearing this product for the night and smeared it on my face multiple times. I wore it to work the next day and did a little bit better because I was aware that I could accidentally look like Joker with a single smudge, although I did make a big mess of my coffee cup.

 

 

I think that I will use this product VERY sparingly over another lipstick or stain. Due to this, it will last quite a while longer than if I wore it thickly (and reapplied often after I made a mess of myself.) I am glad that I purchased it because it is gorgeous.
