Kiss Finals Goodbye With Provocalips

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at USF chapter.

Have you been dreaming of a lip color that you can put on in the morning and leave at home? Well you’re not alone and your days of reapplying are through!

Rimmel London’s new Provocalips 16-hour Kiss Proof Lip Colour is the answer to every woman’s prayers. One application before you leave in the morning and the color lasts all day with no transfer and no fade, or so the commercials say.

I had to try this magic for myself.

I chose to go for Provocalips in 730 Make Your Move. Being a pale individual I didn’t want to jump into anything too dark, after all this is a 16-hour lip color. Make Your Move in the bottle is a deep blush tone that looked like it would give me enough of an impact, without making me look like a clown.

Monday morning I put it on first thing, a generous layer of color and a minimal layer of the lock and shine gloss. The color lasted through breakfast and lunch, through coffee and meetings. It looked almost exactly the same at the end of the day as it did when I first put it on: The only difference was that my lips felt and looked very dry. When I took my makeup off Monday night, the lip color lasted through the scrubbing.

Tuesday morning my lip color looked nearly as good as it had the morning before when I first put on Provocalips, so I decided I may as well go with the same color for Tuesday. I put on a fresh layer of color followed by a generous layer of the lock and shine gloss. My lips were even better at the end of Tuesday than they were the day before. I had learned the portions of product to put on: The lock and shine gloss is a wonderful thing, use it.

The rest of the week I continued to use my new Provocalips lip colour. There was not a single day that my color faded or transferred onto anything, or anyone, that my lips came into contact with.

 

I only recently became a fan of the regular wear of lip color and my biggest complaint has been that I always have to keep a mirror and lipstick with me for touch-ups. While other companies are solving this by putting mirrors on their lipstick or lip color containers, this company has created a solution that truly lasts.

Rimmel London’s Provocalips 16-hour Kiss Proof Lip Colour is my new best friend. What’s yours?

 

I am a junior at the University of South Florida. I am specializing in Public Relations while pursuing certificates in Business and Visualization & Design. I hope to one day combine all of these and pursue law in the entertainment and even branch out to other passions in family law. While I am studying to achieve these dreams, I have furthered my collection of coffee cups and obsession with caffeine. I currently work as a barista and love to whip up new ideas, whether it be actual coffee creations or branding ideas. My other hobbies include enjoying short walks to the movies and my computer. This is usually to catch up on the latest and greatest shows. If it's not film, it is music. I love the thrill of listening to live music of my favorite and new bands. These inspire me to discover my individuality and brand, while challenging myself to help others find theirs.
