I've been living under a rock, I've never seen matte nail polish - until now.
These products reminds me of the upcoming Cinderella movie, I can imagine Cinderella at the ball with matte products ... not sure why I think this, but it'll probably counteract her sparkly dress. With my old age, I always think that's it's never good to "double sparkle"... just like "double denim".

Rimmel Velvet Matte in Midnight Kiss
- 4 shades available
- Price: $8.95
Verdict
- This is my first matte nail polis and I absolutely loved the matte finish. The formula was fast drying and easy to apply with one single stroke.
- I don't usually wear blue, and I felt that the other colours would've suited me a little bit more, but I was wrong! I loved it!
- I would strongly recommend a top and base coat to go with this baby, unfortunately it started chipping on the second day, but you'll get some longevity with some quality top/ base coats.
Rimmel Apocalips Lip Velvet
- Weightless, velvet finish with intense colours that lasts for up to 8 hours
- Moisturising formula
Price: $15.95
Verdict
- Unfortunately this wasn't the lippie for me, I was delighted with the shade at first, however it was way too light as my natural lip colour is significantly darker. I looked a bit sick when I had it on.
- The formula was a little bit dry for my lips and really highlighted the little flakes. My lips are unfortunately quite dry to begin with.
- The formula was indeed light weight and velvet smooth. The product was easy to apply and literally glided across my lips.
- I did get a few hours of wear from it - but not 8 hours, however I had to re-apply my lip balm to keep my lips hydrated on a regular basis.
