Rimmel Volume Flash Mascara

Advantages: Easy to apply, Long Lasting and Waterproof.
Disadvantages: None..

I found that Rimmel Mascara was very easy to apply with the brush. I found that the mascara lasted all day, without the need for reapplication although i did apply two coats in the morning. I thought it was reasonably priced compared to some of the other mascaras available in the shops, very good value for money. I thought that the product made my eyes look larger and my eyelashes look fuller. The product does claim to be waterproof although i personally ...

Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil - good quality eyeliner

Advantages: Good value; effective eye pencil; comes in a good range of shades
Disadvantages: Inconsistency in texture between the shades; doesn't always sharpen well

...of different brands and types. Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil (as it seems to be called, with a rather long-winded name!) is neither the cheapest nor the most expensive, but I think it's my favourite in terms of value and quality. It costs £2.93 from Boots and is probably around the same price in most pharmacies. It takes the form of a traditional wooden pencil with a plastic lid. When it's purchased it's already sharpened to a point so it's immediately ...
...of the eyeliner. The Rimmel pencil goes on quite smoothly and does not 'drag' the delicate skin of the eye, which is important. As with all eye pencils, the 'lead' (don't worry, it's certainly not actual lead!) can be warmed in the palm of a clean hand in order to soften it and make it easier to apply. I have noticed inconsistences between the shades. I suppose that is because of the different mineral composition required to get the different colours. ...

Review of Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil

Not super impressive, but you get what you pay for.

Advantages: easy and even application
Disadvantages: brush, wears off.

Anyone who knows me knows that I obsess over my eyebrows. Years and years ago, I used to shave my eyebrows off entirely, going for this kind of look http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c117/creeper/Pho224.jpg. Don't get me wrong - I still love this kind of look if executed well, but it's not to everyones tastes. Anyway, I've been growing them back for almost two years now, and they're almost back completely, hurrah! (Quick tip for anybody looking ...
...or when you've overplucked, apply olive oil or castor oil if you can get it to your eyebrows at night...sounds strange, and I'm not sure how this works precisely so I don't know if it's 100% safe, I've never had any problems but do this at your own risk). They're quite patchy, extremely thin and honestly, because I wear a lot of makeup, it looks odd if I don't do my brows too. Anyway, enough guff about me and more about the pencil.. There are a ...

Review of Rimmel Eyebrow Pencil

Best mascara I've ever used

Advantages: Gives open eye lashes all day, no flaking and weightless
Disadvantages: None

I tried this mascara simply because my regular one seemed to finish too quickly. (I had been using the gold Loreal one). I'm so glad I did! This is the only mascara I've ever used that I cannot feel on my eyes at all! I never even knew I felt mascara when I had it on until I used this mascara. So many times I forgot I had makeup on. But the best part about this mascara is that is really does lengthen the lashes and keeps them stretched upwards all ...
...easily too. I use aqueous cream to remove makeup which is excellent. The consistency of this mascara is not too thick but thick enough that you only need one coat. I have experienced no flaking which has always been an issue for me before no matter what mascara I used. You know, the little black spots under the eyes. Oh I almost forgot, although I do not use the waterproof version, I cried twice during a sad movie while wearing this and only had ...

Review of Rimmel Magnif'Eyes Mascara

Good neutral green

Advantages: Long wearing, easily blended, easy to remove, does not irritate eyes
Disadvantages: Matte

I bought this because my summer job requires all makeup to be neutral and nonobtrusive. Ever one to bend the rules, I decided that this was both of those things! I work in a coffee shop - very busy, hot and sweaty at times! So any eyeshadow HAD to be hard wearing, otherwise I would be forever panda eyed. I tend to apply this as the lighter shade all over my eyelid to a few mm above the crease, then the darker one in the crease. With my Mac blending ...
