Review | Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation

Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation

 

Heyy :).  I realise that I’m probably the last person ever to review this product, but I bought it after reading so many good reviews from other bloggers!  I was hesitating for ages whether or not to go ahead and try it, because apart from lipsticks I generally avoid Rimmel due to bad experiences with some of their other products. 

 

I was quite eager to try it when I bought it because of all the good reviews, but when I did…. I was less than impressed :(.  As soon as I put it on I straight away didn’t like the feel of it on my skin, to me it felt cakey and sticky like it would transfer on to everything else.  The colour was an ok match but despite being a dewy, highlighting finish I found it also quite dull and dark for ‘Ivory’.  As you can tell, I’m no expert at describing these things!  But I just thought I would do a review because it’s not as positive as most of the others.

 

One good thing I found about it was the dewy finish which does look quite radiant and fresh, but to me this is no good when the colour isn’t right and makes my face look dull! 

 

I won’t be repurchasing this, and I’m pretty sure I won’t be using it up either, but I may keep it to use when I really want a radiant look and am willing to put up with the colour and transfer issues! xx
