Rimmel Apocalips Collection + Review
Hey Everyone!
I have been using Rimmel's Apocolips for almost two years now and I am so happy I have these in my collection. They are richly pigmented and creamy - something hard to find in the drugstore. I have been wanting to share these for quite some time but waited till I had collected enough shades to review and tested with other products. These have been out for a while but I truly believe everyone should have these in their collections.

From Left to Right: Phenomenon, Stellar, Big Bang and Apocaliptic
From Top to Bottom: Phenomenon, Stellar, Big Bang and Apocaliptic
Pros:
- pigmented - very little goes a LONG way
- moisturizing
- inexpensive- under $10
- compact - perfect for travel or going out *clutch friendly*
- applicator - makes application very easy and effortless
- scent - refreshing but very subtle
- packaging - practical but fashionable
- layers well with other products, including matte lipsticks
- by layering these lip creams over the matte lipsticks, this helps prolong the wear of the lipsticks and help reduce any dryness
Cons
- if apply too much, product may bleed or smear on teeth
- nude shades are hard to pull off alone
- some may require a lip liner but that depends also on personal preference
Shades:
Phenomenon

- needs a nude lip liner to help make it wearable
- great for highlighting center lips or lightening lip shades
- similar to MAC Myth, Fleshpot and Creme D'Nude
Stellar
- bright coral pink
- love this for summer
- great for brightening up the complexion
- similar to both MAC Relentlessly Red and Impassioned
- I like mixing this lip cream with Relentlessly Red
- I like MAC Cherry or Annabelle Cherry for a lip liner
Big Bang
- bright blue toned red
- perfect for a classic red lip
- similar to MAC Ruby Woo
- I like mixing this lip cream with Ruby Woo
- I like MAC Cherry or Annabelle Cherry for a lip liner
Apocaliptic
- bright magenta pink
- perfect for a girly look featuring winged eye liner
- similar to MAC All Fired up

Overall, I love these products and still reach for them often out of my growing collection of lip products. They have a couple other shades I want to try out but for now, I am content with my current collection.
