The amazingly well named 'Apocalips' are a fairly new range of (as Rimmel put's it) earth-shattering lip lacquers. They are a happy medium between a long lasting intensely pigmented lipstick & a lipgloss. With one swipe of the applicator you are left with a thick high shine colour on the lip, & I don't mean thick as in heavy & gloopy (technical word) I mean thick as in rich, soft & creamy.
The packaging is clear so you can easily see the shade within & I love the rough cut diamond shaped black lid. The doe foot applicator has a slight diagonal shaped tip so you can get a precise application around the lip line.There is even a little 'well' in the applicator that holds onto a lot of product so you can get a nice even finish.
After a few hours the intense shine wears off my lips leaving them with a hint of colour & feeling a little dry. With another application or a dab of lip balm the dryness goes away. The staying power of these lip lacquers are great, especially the darker of the three shades I own.

Over all Rimmel Apocalips are a great priced high street lip lacquer, that feels comfortable on the lip, with intense pigmentation & staying power.

DeleteI am seriously in love with these. I got on the train a bit late, but quickly picked up a few more shades after trying "Celestial" first. So good.

DeleteI love these too! I did a review of them a few months ago when they were finally released in the US. It was trying to see them all over UK blogs before we could get them here! haha. You picked out great shades.

Aww haha thank you huni. I can't wait to wear Luna in the Summer :) xx
DeleteGreat lip swatches! I spent so long looking for these and couldn't ever find them. I finally found the color Celestial but it was called Show Off Lip Lacquer! Apparently it's the same thing but they named it differently stateside! I find these really comfortable to wear, too!
ReplyDeleteIt's odd how they changed the name in the U.S, but good you now have them :) xx
Deletethey look so amazing on your lips. I have seen them on other people. I dont think they looked that appealing to me. It must be your lips lol.
ReplyDeleteAww haha thanks sweetie xx
