Rimmel Kate Moss Collection Hip Hop - swatches and review

Today I want to show you a polish my boyfriend brought me home from London a few weeks ago. The color was so bright and juicy that I had to try it almost immediately!

This polish is from Rimmel's fairly new Kate Moss Collection. Kate has been very involved in developing this collection. She has chosen the colors and named them and she has also been involved in the work with the formula. Rumor has it her daughter was very involved too. Kate is apparently very interested in music so all the colors are named by music genres. There's Punk Rock, Brit Pop and so on - but this is Hip Hop!



GOOD TO KNOW ABOUT HIP HOP:

Type of polish: Crelly.

Colour: A bright coral orange red.

Collection: Rimmel Nails by Kate Moss Collection Spring 2013.

Opacity: Good. This is three coats. Ok for a crelly.

Formula: Very good! A nice formula which is easy to apply.

Brush: Excellent! A very nice, wide and firm brush which is slightly curved at the top.

Shine: Very shiny on its own, but I have one coat of Seche Vite top coat in these pictures. 

Accurate colour, photo vs IRL: Quite accurate. Perhaps a bit less red and more orange coral irl.

Grade: 5/5 :D

This is a really gorgeous polish! It's so bright and juicy! Perfect for summer! Both on fingers and toes. Because it's a crelly you need three coats but it's so worth it! I think Kate did a great job with this one! ;) The bottle is really cute too with its large crown on the top.

How do you like Hip Hop?

  1. I have noticed a this collection many times in Boots and Superdrug. You have made this shade look so nice :) I much preferred Rimmel's old bottle style - I like a thinner handle :) x

    1. Maybe you should give this collection a chance next time you're at Boots ;) Thera are some gems in it! ;)
      A thinner handle is always easier to control but this one was actually ok too :) x

  3. Vilken härlig röd nyans.
    Ja det är väl lite kul tycker jag med kändisar som får ha egna kollektioner. Extra kul om man är ett fan av just den kändisen. Sedan är det säkert lite lättare att marknadsföra kollektionen med hjälp av kändisen. :-)

    1. Ja, titta på the Big Bang Theory kollektionen som vi båda föll för! :D Om man nu kan kalla TBBT en kändis ;)

  4. Oj, vilken härlig nyans, känns unikt med en corallröd som är så pass "mörk" men ändå nästan känns neonig. Mycket bra val av din pojkvän! ;)

  10. Hi doll, what a gorgeous polish!!! There is nothing like a happy red crelly for sunny days :-)!!! And while I usually go on numerous eyerolls when I read about celebreties going into collaborarions for fashion or beauty lines and could not care less, Kate holds a special place - I also was an exited collector of the clothes she designed for Topshop and own a considerable amount of "her" dresses, tops and little jackets ;-) - viele Küsschen

    1. Hi pet! I know the feel! Not another celebrity polish collection again... lol! ;) Most of them just put their name on it but Kate seems to have been very involved in this one. A plus in my book ;) As a Kate collector I think you should get some of these polishes ;) She has a real pretty blue one called Brit Pop! :D Do you have Rimmel in Switzerland? Viele Küsschen!!! xxx
