Maybelline or Rimmel

Which make up brand is best? I compare the most important things I think make these brands popular, and we see which wins! Also for more, check out my 'Topshop or Newlook' post I did yesterday!

Looks

Okay, so to start, I test the looks of the brands.

 

So first of all, I think that the Rimmel ad, which came up first on Google Images was a pretty good advert, and the looks of it are good. I also really like the look of Kate Moss on this, look how hot she's looking though! Haha.

 

Maybelline's ad is also very well. Personally, I think that this advert is more effective because of the colours. And I'm guessing most of you have used 'Baby Lips' before as they were really big at one point and they were the thing to have!

 

 

Prices

 

So for prices, I compared some lipsticks. I started with looking at Maybelline's Elixir lipstick in red. It was sold at Boots for £6.99. I have never used this lipstick by Maybelline but I have used others by them, one of their red lipsticks being my favourite!

 

I also checked the price of Rimmel's London Moisture Renew lipstick in red, and this was £6.49 also at Boots. Again, I haven't used this lipstick, but I have heard Zoella say that she loves the Kate Moss lipstick.

 

Popularity 

 

To compare the popularity, I go by how many followers each has on Twitter and Facebook.

 

Starting with Facebook, this is how many likes each has:

Rimmel 7,337

Maybelline 426k

 

Whoa! How has Maybelline got that many more likes?!?!

 

And on Twitter, each brand has this many followers:

Rimmel 122,065

Maybelline 435,462

 

OMG! This is crazy! And Maybelline has a different account for Brazil, New York and UK!

 

Verdict

So from my research, Maybelline is obviously a favourite online, but Rimmel is cheaper. Which one do you prefer? Comment down below! I would love to see what you guys think! And if you have any ideas as what to compare next, comment that as well!
