Available in five (5) shades: 101, 107, 110, 111, 113
I have tried some of the Rimmel lipsticks by Kate Moss and I wanted to share with you my thoughts on three of my favourite shades:
Variety
There are two types of finish available, the matte and the lasting finish one, and there are twenty-one (21) shades available in total. The lasting finish one has all the shades you can possibly ask for, contrary to other drugstore lipsticks like the Collection Deluxe lipsticks which have only five shades (review - here). As for the matte formula, there could be some brown shades added as most of the shades are different shades of red.
Price
Both types of Rimmel Kate lipsticks retail for £5.49, which is a good price for a drugstore lipstick but there are also some cheaper alternatives, like the Seventeen Stay Pout Lipstick which retails for £4.49 (review - here).
Packaging
There is nothing too special about the packaging of these lipsticks but I like that they are sleek and don't feel cheap. Of course the Kate Moss signature adds a huge plus to the packaging and I love that depending on the shades the signature colour is different. Also I really like the Rimmel logo on the top of the packaging lid.

Ease of use
I love both formulas as both of them glide on perfectly and are really easy to apply. The Lasting Finish one is more creamy so is easier to apply and you don't have to worry too much about being precise as you can wipe it off, while with the matte ones you have to be more careful as they leave a light stain (especially the darker shades) if you wipe it off. However both formulas provide even application and as they are so pigmented one coat is more than enough!

The result
As I said the pigmentation of these lipsticks is amazing and you can really see that from the pictures. The finish of the shades 01 and 26 is a glossy one but without any shimmers or glitters. Due to the fact that they are a creamy formula they are really moisturizing yet they do not transfer around the lips so they are perfect with or without lip liner. The finish of the shade 107 is a matte one which is definitely not moisturizing so I would recommend using a lip balm underneath. What I love about this shade is that is really pigmented and it applies evenly, contrary to other matte lipsticks I've tried. A huge plus for me is the smell of the lipsticks, (I am terrible at describing smells but) I would say it has a sweet kind of vanilla smell.
