' Steel Grey'

I recently attended a Rimmel event at the Coty HQ in NYC. Very cool event. Even cooler products.
You can't *beat* Rimmel's attention to color and quality and their amazing prices.
This 'steel grey' nail polish is gorgeous and five (5!) times cheaper than the lookalike from Chanel. The Rimmel version is great because the brush is fat and slightly rounded, which makes it easy to apply. And the polish dries super quickly! It's hard to tell from this photograph, but the grey has a hint of purple. Fresh! Feminine!


I'm also excited about the company's sun shimmer. The bronzing powder comes in three shades. Mostly I'm thrilled with its generous size. A big compact for a big sweeping brush. Try putting it on the bridge of your nose and your eyelids. Speaking of eyelids, even though I'm not a huge eye shadow person, I have to hand it to Rimmel. Their shadows were highly pigmented and ultra smooth. They really had the feel of a more sophisticated (and expensive) product.
