review: rimmel match perfection foundation

Wednesday, 23 January 2013



I've been trying my hand at different liquid foundations and one day whilst innocently perusing the makeup stands at Boots, I saw that Rimmel had £2.00 off their foundations. I spent about 20 minutes swatching and colour matching foundation and I finally settled on this one. I picked the shade, 201 Classic Beige and I must say, it's pretty much a perfect match.

The foundation itself isn't too liquidy at all and usually one pump of this will be enough to cover my face. I do like the pump design as it helps me judge how much foundation I need and there's very little room for any wastage.

It applies like a dream with my Real Techniques stippling brush and has a slight floral scent to it which I found pleasant and not over powering. It has medium coverage and leaves a nice dewy, natural finish. For me, it's the perfect daytime foundation. 

Staying power wise, it's pretty good. For your standard 6 hour day, you'll find you won't have to touch up during the day but I've worn this for a 10 hour shift at work and it's almost all but gone by the time I come home.

This foundation retails for £6.99 which I think is a great price for a drugstore foundation but I like waiting for some great offers that Boots and Superdrug do.
