Rimmel Color Show Off lipsticks- £1.99 available from Fragrance Direct here

Six lipsticks in metallic pink packaging lined up in a row- it's almost too much for me to handle. I was excited when I just had one of these beauties, times that by six and I'm on the verge of falling into a shiny pink state of catatonia. I know these won't be for everyone, but as you can probably guess they're very much up my street; in fact I don't think I could have done a better job designing lipstick I loved more than these myself. They might have been discontinued because the rest of the nation hated them- but rest assured Rimmel, they have one fan right here!

I'd been wanting to get my hands on more of these since trying my first one a while ago, but the last few times I've made an order from Fragrance Direct there have only been one or two in stock. After a particularly crappy day a couple of weeks ago I decided to treat myself to some new things (thank you retail therapy- you've got me through some tough times) and luckily there were a few more of the shades available. I thought this post might be helpful for those of you that have ever eyed these up online; we all know how dodgy Fragrance Directs little example colour pictures are, and I could only find one or two of them swatched on blogs. Despite basically buying the shades without having a clue what I'd be getting, I really like all of them- no weird old lady browns or strange unwearable colours. I'll definitely get my wear from all of these.

Sadly 'Tell No One' was a bit smooshed (technical lipstick term) as it had gone slightly into the lid where the twisty bit (another technical lipstick term, grab your clipboards people I know this scientific jargon is getting complex) was broke. Luckily I managed to fix it and it survived without too much damage- I'm really glad because it's one of my favourites of the bunch. I've mentioned the formula of these in separate reviews here and here so I won't waffle on too much about them again- basically they're gorgeously creamy and velvety, highly pigmented with a fruity scent.

Have you tried Rimmel's Color Show Off lipsticks? Which is your favourite of the six?
