Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil

...decided to settle for this Rimmel soft kohl eyeliner as I thought it would be a whole lot easier to use. Ingredients origins/uses Kohl (from the Arabic kuhl) is a mixture of soot and other ingredients worn by both women and men to darken the upper eyelids and as a mascara. It was traditionally used as far back as 3500BC as protection from eye ailments and to protect eyes from the Sun's glare. It was also believed to strengthen children's eyes soon ...
...coating has the brand name Rimmel and the product name soft kohl eye pencil printed on it in white lettering, which makes it fairly bland. When you take the plastic cap off the end of the pencil, the kohl tip is revealed. You will notice that this colour is quite a bit lighter than the colour on the packaging, but when applied to the skin it does reveal the correct colour. The texture of the kohl is very soft which makes it easy to apply to the skin ...

Review of Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil

...good. I have tried the Rimmel liquid eyeliner and the special eyes eyeliner, but this one is definitely the best. It is fairly cheap priced at only £2.99 in Boots and it lasts for ages. I use it every day and I buy a new one once every three months. It is very light weight at only 1.2g, and can easily be stored in a handbag. It has a plastic lid which protects the eyeliner itself and is the size of a normal pencil. Because it is Kohl it is very ...
...it had been cold in my room over night it did need some warming up in the morning. This is easily done by rubbing it between your fingers, or even breathing on it. It doesn’t take long so you don’t waste time warming it up. I use the eye liner on both the upper and lower eye lids. It draws a really good line on the upper lid and the same on the bottom. The only problem that I have had is that because it is so soft, after a few hours of wear it rubs ...

Review of Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil

...the basic, low-key shades. Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil is available in many health and beauty retailers and are usually really quite cheap. Only £2.93 from Boots which would usually be the most expensive places. '''My Experience''' _The Pencil_ The actual pencil is really good, it's quite thin so you can get an accurate application and the lid stays on really well, which is always good as I tend to shove this into my bag incase I need any top ...
...break really easily. I think Rimmel sell pencil sharpeners, but they're really easy to find. _How I Use This Pencil_ I use this pencil to make my eyes look a little wider, it works! Lady Gaga uses white eyeliner to make her eyes look bigger, take a close look at a photo of her. All you do is put the pencil in the Pure White shade onto your lower waterline, it'll give you the illusion that you've got big, beautiful eyes! Remember and put mascara on ...

Review of Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil

...I hadn't tried a Rimmel eyeliner before and I actually picked one up and then put it back remembering a horrific experience involving a Rimmel mascara a while ago that gave me such a bad eye infection after I couldn't remove it properly so I was seriously in two minds as to whether to take the risk again but at the price of £2.93 for a large size and the colour being exactly what I had in mind I decided to risk it. The Packaging: Long pencil design ...
...then I'm told it is Rimmel and the colour is stated along with a number. Other information on the back of the pencil includes contact details for Rimmel, the size is stated which is 0.04 OZ, 1.2g and the recycle symbol is displayed. It's a very sturdy pencil and of good size too. Using It: Well the pencil is actually rather good in the looks stakes! It's slightly moist and the colour comes off very well with no dragging and no feathering. It's ...

Review of Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil

...I have previously used the Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil and I think its a fairly good product, for various reasons, which I have outlined below. However, there are drawbacks to every product and these minor negative aspects, gives the eye pencil a lower rating, than it potentially could have received. ***Positive Aspects*** Firstly in terms of use: It is easy to apply and is soft so it glides easily and gives a smooth finish. All you have ...
...eye pencil in the gap between the liner and your eye. Outcome: Overall, the outcome is good. The colour lasts for a few hours, is fairly dense and to an extent, it doesnt smudge or fade away The eye pencil is available in 3 different colours, these include: Jungle Green Sable Brown Jet Black - so you have a choice available to you It is also easy to get hold off, its available in a range of stores, such as Boots, Superdrug and a range of other ...

Review of Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil

...not easy to please. Rimmel products are not too bad for smudging, even when I carelessly run my fingers over them. They allow me to draw great dramatic Egyptian style designs around my eyes if I am feeling flamboyant, and they work very nicely if I'm trying to be a bit more subtle. I don't have much trouble getting a decent point when I need them (although I seldom remember to put the pencil in the fridge or freezer.) I've also found that this ...
...eyeshadow for best effect.) Rimmel silks do indeed have a silky quality and a good finish - they are reasonably priced (I tend to by end of line products from market stalls, but even bought from a chemists they are better value than most.) I find they last well, and are well enough designed to cope with a fair amount of abuse in abgs, pockets and other unlikely places. I give this product a thumbs up. ...

Review of Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil

...or runs down your face. Rimmel have hit the balance perfectly. Their eye pencil is soft without being overly smudgy, the colour (in my case, black) is apparent with one application and it stays put for an average daytime and beyond. If you prefer a very defined line just sharpen the pencil each time you use it, for a softer smokey look either let the pencil get blunt or smudge the line gently with a cottonbud after application. Kohl is the classic ...

Review of Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil

...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

...and wear it a lot. Rimmel is quite a famous make with a good reputation, so when I bought a black Rimmel eyeliner, I expected it to live up to it's name. But, unfortunatly- it didn't. Firstly, I found it difficult to apply. I felt I had to press very hard to get an even line. Secondly, it was not very black- although it said black, I would say it looked more like grey! And finally, by the end of the day, it had not only turned from a dark grey colour ...

This pencil gives dense colour application, which can be blended into the lid for a softly smudged look. A very easy to apply formulation." --Packaging-- Pretty simple - the pencil is the same colour as the eyeliner itself, with product information written on the pencil in white. The lid also matches the liner colour. ...
...any way. --Appearance-- The line appears very weak on the waterline, which is never good news. --Texture-- The above indicates that this pencil is too soft, so you might want to keep it in the fridge. --Longevity-- Useless. Slides off within an hour or two. --Value for money-- While in terms of actual monetary cost you're paying very little, it's so useless that I'd recommend doubling your budget and getting the Bourjois pencil. You'll get ...

Review of Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil

...in Boots and purchased Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal pencil for £2.49 which I think is a bit of a bargain. They only have this in Jet Black. I opened the lid and put it on very lightly to the bottom of my eye which made me feel sick! Then I did the same to the other one. I only put a tiny bit on because I have quite a pale complexion and I look like Marilyn Manson when I put too much on. I didn't bother with the upper part of my eye either because I've ...
...I try it!! From what I could see it looked great the colour was noticable but light and I could smudge it if I made a mistake. I could also build up the colour if I had of wanted to, so you can go from a very minamilist look to a very bold one, but 1st impressions aren't always what you should look for with an eye-liner it's how it stays on throughout the day. I was very impressed though, it didn't smudge once and stayed on all day. The colour didn't ...

Review of Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil

...boots, superdrug, whrever there is Rimmel there will be this eyeliner! It costs 1.99 or so, which I think makes it one of the cheapest eyeliners you can get at boots. -Packaging- It has a simplistic packaging that I quite like actually, the pencil actually looks like a pencil and it has this rounded plastic cap. The whole thing is in the colour of the eyeliner, which is handy. My eyeliner is in navy so the outside is in navy as well. It comes ...
...it work?- Well it is an eyeliner so it works in that you can glide it on your lids, and it defines your eyes, and when you smudge it with your finger, it smudges. However, it doesn't stay on! It smudges after a few eyeliner and leaves this faintly dark patch under your eyes -First Use- I tried in in the store and I knew it went on smoothly, which is why I bought it. I used it the following morning, cliding it along my top and lower lash line. ...

Review of Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil

...when a friend recommended the Rimmel eye pencil to me I decided to buy one to find out what it was all about. Many liquid eyeliners are runny and difficult to apply, which is why I tend not to choose them. But there is also the problem of an eye pencil being hard, scratchy and difficult to apply. But I found none of these problems with this pencil! It did not even need to be warmed on the back of the hand before applying as it was a soft pencil which ...
