Rimmel Apocalips: New shades ( With lip swatches)

Hello everyone, I hope you are all well!

A couple of weeks ago I browsing the counters in boots and was looking at the rimmel stand when I noticed there were new shades in the Apocalips collection! I think there was about 5-6 different shades but I only picked up two as they were the ones that stood out to me the most.


The two shades I picked up were Eclipse and Across the universe.



Across the universe is a deep red with blue undertones. It is much deeper then what it looks like in the photo but I had a difficult time getting the colour to come across on camera! Much darker then the other red in the collection called big bang which is a true pillar box red.


Eclipse is a deep purple plum colour. I have been wearing this so much lately and I know I will get so much use out of it when it starts to get a bit colder. In the tube it looks like a really scary dark colour but on the lips it just turns into a perfect winter colour.


Here I have blotted my lips as this is a way I love to wear this product as it's berry tones really start to come through when the shine has gone.

I am so glad I purchased these two colours, they are just like the other apocalips, they last for a really long time and are beautiful colours!

Thanks for reading!
