Rimmel Apocalips Lip Lacquer

I am really into liquid lipsticks at the moment and these are great! I do wish they had a bit of a bigger colour selection to choose from, but the three I do own, I love! They are surprisingly long wearing which is a bonus and they don't feel sticky or too slippery on my lips. You get a good even application - these actually have one of my favourite applicators - the shape is a bit different to your typical liquid lipstick doe foot and I find it works really well to apply the lipstick smoothly and evenly.

I picked one of these up in the shade Nude Eclipse which is a gorgeous nude beige shade - quite light. These have a scent which I'm not too fond of, but that won't stop me from using it. I love the shade on my medium complexion, it's nude but doesn't make me look dead. I LOVE the applicator on this, it's a doe foot but has a small dip in the flat edge which holds product making it easier to dispense onto the lips instead of re-dipping multiple times. I find their can be a little too much in the dip so scraping off a bit first helps. It applies really nice and even, not patchy at all and has good coverage - quite opaque which is nice. I'm not a gloss girl at all but this is good, it isn't sticky and it doesn't goop up like traditional gloss seems to. What I am disappointed in with this product is the staying power - it lasts an hour if that on me and that's without eating or drinking. It does last a bit longer over a lip liner or a matte lipstick though.

I have this in Big Bang and it is a lovely true red. The formula is really pigmented and glossy. It is not sticky on the lips at all. The applicator is easy to use and control. Love the shades available and very affordable.

The colour is very pigmented and vibrant pink and is also glossy which is nice. The applicator is very soft and is easy to apply. It's also long lasting with no need for re-applying which is good.

I bought this for a holiday - as a stay at home mum I don't often wear lip gloss and this was a very vibrant bright colour! The colour stays on well and stays bright for quite some time!! I felt a little self conscious as it was so bright and as I said I am not used to wearing any colour on my lips - but I have worn it a couple of times since when I have had the opportunity to go out - definitely not a daytime colour for me but for a night out - yes!!

I found these on a sale so I swatched a few on the back of my hands and omg they were sooo pigmented ! The vibrant colors caught my attention so I got a couple and I love them! I think they are a bit like ysl vernis things because you can use this very lightly like a tint or use a light layer like a gloss or build them up like lipsticks !

The pigmentation is crazy for some colors and the packing is chic to carry around :) they are great cheap lippies !

I bought this in Celestial when they were first released in New Zealand, after hearing about how much Fleur De Force loves them.

Rimmel have really upped their game - this seems like their take on the YSL Glossy Stains.

Celestial is a bright dark pink, very vivid. The doefoot applicator is large and applies the product very evenly, with a little dent in the middle of the wand as a sort of 'reservoir' for the product so it doesn't apply too dryly or thinly.

The finish is a beautiful, vibrant gloss which lasts for hours, and when the gloss wears off you're left with a beautiful stain. Because they are so glossy, I didn't find them too drying. Once the glossiness wears off, I tend to apply a balm or gloss over the stain to re-hydrate my lips and emphasise the colour.

The only downside is the colour selection. I'd love to see these in some lighter pinks and rosey colours, as there aren't many shades to choose from that flatter my skintone and lip colour. Apart from that, I'll definitely repurchase.

I really like lip lacquers as this have the glossiness of a lip gloss, but the vibrant colours of a lipstick. I own three of these, and I really like all of them. Plus they're long lasting. I just wish they had more of a colour range.

I bought one of these online expecting it to be a nice peachy colour. It was almost beige and I can't imagine the colour being flattering on any skin tone. I also didn't like the sticky consistency and find that it does not last evenly. Quite a disappointment.

I love these they are so flattering every color feels and looks easy to wear on all skins. Yes it doesn't last long but it doesn't claim that it does and unlike most pigmented lipstick/glosses it doesn't dry out your lips.
