Rimmel Provocalips Review

The Rimmel Provocalips launched early around October. I got it a few weeks ago in the shade Make Your Move, as a reward for not buying something else (sad, I know!), and have really been loving it!




Rimmel claims that this gloss lasts 16 hours and promises that it won't transfer. The gloss is double ended, one end has the colour, the other has the balm. The coloured gloss is really pigmented, and the balm is completely transparent. You apply the colour first, wait until its tacky, and then you apply the balm. And you're good to go. 

I popped this gloss on at around 9:30 one morning. By 4, it started to feel a tiny bit dry, it still looked perfect though. I just put on a little bit more of the clear balm and it was all good.

By 7, it had faded just a little bit, but not enough that I needed to even consider re-applying!

It still looked great by 10 that night. It felt a bit dry again, but at that point I was ready to drop, I was so exhausted, that I decided to just take it off and call it a night. Taking it off was quite the task, I had to scrub it off using my Lush Sugar Lip Scrub, and even then I couldn't get it off completely!

The Rimmel Provocalips really lived up it's claims of being long lasting and transfer proof! I really love this gloss, I'm thinking I might have to pick up a few more colours!

  1. Like the sound of the long wear but not the scrubbing off part!

    1. It wasn't fun! There was still some left around the edges, but I had to leave it or I wouldn't have had any lips left!
