Rimmel Volume Flash Mascara

Rimmel Volume Flash mascara costs about £4.00 - £7.00, depending on where you buy it from. I bought mine from Boots for £5.99 but got points off from my Advantage Card, which meant I paid the equivalent of £3.99. There is a regular version, a curved brush version, a waterproof version and an extreme black version. I bought the extreme black one (the one in a black tube). It's available in black or brown. Brown is better for people with fair skin ...
...have tanned skin, black was the way to go :) It comes in a black tube, about 12cm tall and 2cm diameter. The text is in red, and there is also a red strip around the tube just below the opening which says "RIMMEL LONDON" on it. There is 8ml of product contained inside it. The brush is a normal-sized bristle brush, approximately 2.5cm long. Volume Flash is designed to give the lashes a dramatic look. On the tube it says "INSTANT THICKENING MASCARA ...

Review of Rimmel Volume Flash Mascara

-RIMMEL VOLUME FLASH MASCARA- I discovered this product after being introduced to it by a friend at a sleepover, and haven't regretted buying it (which is more than I can say for some pieces of make up i have baught!) Although I must admit I don't stick to a certain product when it comes to make up, I keep coming back to this one. Heres the lowdown: *PRODUCT* The mascara itself is of quite a thick consistency, therefore providing that to DIE ...
...become very messy , so it is important not to touch lashes until they are completely dry. Once dry, the mascara hardens lashes so the thickness remains there until it is removed. However, it is important to know that it isn't as 'isntant' as the packaging claims. The mascara still needs a few coats in order to get that super volumous look. Saying this, be careful not to over-do it, as the product will result in clumpy lashes. *VARIETY* Comes in ...

Review of Rimmel Volume Flash Mascara

...price! I had bought Rimmel Extra Super Lash Mascara in the past and was happy with the results, so I decided to give Rimmel Volume flash a go aswell. The first time I bought the product I bought it for £4.95 from Boots (hand your Boots Advantage Card over when buying and receive approx 20 points on your card - that's equivalent to 20p) I bought it again this week where boots currently have an offer on - 2 Volume Flash mascaras for £6, working out ...
...Flash and 1 Waterproof. Then you mascaras for different occasions or even the change in weather! I realise this offer wont be on forever, but Boots will quite frequently have deals with Rimmel, for example, get a free eyeshadow or eyeliner when you buy a mascara. The colours available are Brown/Black and Black. I would definitely go for black, as this will give you a fuller look with definite volume. But if you are going for a more natural look, ...

Review of Rimmel Volume Flash Mascara

I use alot of Rimmel products as I cant afford the expensive designer price tag but find cheap alternatives - um - cheap! Rimmel Volume Flash Mascara can be found almost everywhere you would expect, I have found it in supermarkets, cosmetic stores (e.g. Boots, Superdrugs ...) and my local chemist. The price ranges from £4.50 - £7.99, it is worth shopping around as some places usualy have specails offers on Rimmel products, and obviously some places ...
...of the mascara. Rimmel Volume Flash Mascara is also available in waterproof and extreme black. I found these just as good as the original, the waterproof one was hard to remove but this is usualy the norm with a mascara designed not to come off!! The only downside is that this mascara is so thick, it doesnt 'live' as long as others. I found that a normal mascara can last up to 6 months without drying out, but after about 3 months this mascara started ...

Review of Rimmel Volume Flash Mascara

...advatised wand. Then i saw rimmel volume flash mascara, whick looked out of my price range, until i saw the price at £5, i was absoloutly shocked! The curved wand really makes it easier to apply, leaving you with amazingly noticiable eyes, i will contiue to buy this great find and will recomend it to anyone in need of a great set of sparkling eyes. Available in 3 shades- black, brown and blue. If you are finding it hard to find here is a useful website ...
...amazing mascara and your hopes and dreams of dark thick lashes will be a distant memory. PROBLEMS: If you find the mascara is a little clumpy, after your application apply a little vaseline to sort out the problem. This has got to be definatly one of my favourite mascaras and it's not too pricey. goodluck! ...

Review of Rimmel Volume Flash Mascara

I bought this mascara on a very tight budget (for £3.99) and I have to say for that price I am impressed. It claims to be an 'instant thickening mascara' which gives your lashes 5x the volume. It comes in a small range of colours, brown, black and a slightly 'darker' black. Of the three I purchased the darkest one and the colour is very good; the mascara seems to be very well pigmented and coats my light lashes thoroughly in just one sweep. As ...
...fatten your lashes; they definately look longer and fuller. I did find however that unless you are careful it can cause your lashes to stick together and become quite spidery looking. The packaging is very nice, it is simple and a good size. The brush isn't one of those high tech plastic combs or rubber ones, but just a standard bristled brush; this does the job fairly well but probably contributes to the clumping as it is easily overloaded. It ...

Review of Rimmel Volume Flash Mascara

I'm usually pretty sceptical of the larger brand names for make up, because I rarely see much difference between them and cheaper versions... Especially on something that I use everyday; what's the point of paying double? I saw that there was a 1/2 price sale on this, so I thought that I'd try it out... I'd still use it, even if it didn't make my lashes 5x thicker as promised. The stuff is pretty thick, as you'd expect and can sometimes come out ...
...a good shake before applying and using an eyelash brush afterwards. I already have quite thick, dark lashes, so the difference in colour wasn't all that noticeable (and I was using Extreme Black), but I must say; it really did live up to the expectations for the maximising of volume and length. Even on my lashes, it has probably lengthened them by at least half over, and tripled the volume. Overall, I would say this product is worth the standard ...

...based product and spreads silky. rimmel mascara has always been thick so it's best for those girls who like to pile on loads of mascara to make their lashes look really thick and false. price is reasonable if this isthe type of product you like. it lasts all day well about 6-8 hours, after that it loses its fatness (spider leg look). this is easy to wipe off aswell with any face wipe or water on cotton pad. ...

Review of Rimmel Volume Flash Mascara

...ditching my Mac mascara for Rimmel by a girlfriend, and I have to say I found the experience more then satisfying. Being so cheap I was extremely apprehensive and had already given it a bad review in my mind, yet I was startled and pleasantly surprised by how it made my eyelashes look. It was good at separating and boosting volume and really did add a flutter effect on my lashes. I think this had more to do with the brush rather then the actual mascara ...

Review of Rimmel Volume Flash Mascara

...month. I noticed Rimmel had an offer on. Buy any mascara and get a free eye shadow! I have used other Rimmel products before and they have always been very good and well priced so I decided to give Volume Flash a go. ~~~The Promise~~~ Rimmel claims that it is a 'instant thickening mascara' and that it will give you 'supercharged lashes in a flash'. ~~~My Experience~~ It's packaged very nicely. The mascara comes in a deep red bottle with a matching ...

Review of Rimmel Volume Flash Mascara

...Right...firslty I have used rimmel a lot and never really been disappointed with them but tis time I am. The brush is meant to be curved to give you natural lookinh lashes but it's nearly straight...ok there's a slight kink in it. The mascara seemed to be very watery and had far too much product on the brush so clumped a lot. When I did apply it my lashes looked very sparse. If you are going to use this product you would probably need quite long ...

Review of Rimmel Volume Flash Mascara

...In fact - the whole rimmel 'volume flash' range is my favourite! This mascara adds much volume with little clump. The wand is extremely effective. The brush on the wand is long and thin which means you can apply your mascara quickly. Usually, a fairly cheap mascara consits of a potentially good mascara with a brush that resembles a toilet brush - and therefore all hope of a good mascara is ruined. This brush is really what makes the product - it ...
...seen and holds a lot more product than other brushes. As I've said, this mascara provides little clump, which you may be thinking is not no clump is it? However, if a clump occurs, as long as you run the wand through it again straight away it should de-clump. And there really is no other downside to this great mascara! ...

Review of Rimmel Volume Flash Mascara

This mascara is great for big, bold and striking lashes. I purchased mine from boots, when they had an offer on (2 for £5!), so only paird £2.50 for this piece of love in a tube. Although when you first use it, it can be quite clumpy, I found that the curved brush version applied better, and curved around the lashes, giving a more defined and less clumpy application. The brush works well, delivering an even and good amount of mascara on each application. ...
...well during the day- no panda eyes here! I found that this lasted me quite along time too, so this product definately gave me my money's worth. I would advise that if you have very small or delicate lashes, this may be a bit too cloggy and overpowering, but if you have dark or slightly bigger lashes like me, this mascara is great! ...

Review of Rimmel Volume Flash Mascara

This is the most appalling mascara I have ever come across in my nine years of using mascara. This is mascara had many bad points that severely out weighed the one good point that comes to mind. The only good point is; it made eyelashes seem thicker. The bad points are as followed; - Firstly; When eyelashes were made thicker by this product it only lasted around one minute before your eyelashes collapsed and stuck together. - Secondly; The mascara ...
...gave a ring of mascara around the eyes which made me look like a Panda. - Thirdly; The brush was bald, awkward, scabby and a waste of plastic. - Lastly; After 3days of owning this product it dried up and went clumpy with no pumping to blame and the lid screwed on tightly. Avoid this product like the plague! ...

Review of Rimmel Volume Flash Mascara

This mascara varies in price depending where you buy it, but is a good purchase for under £10, available from most high street retailers. I have used a number of different mascaras in my time, in the search of the longer, fuller lashes that they all seem to boast in the adverts. This mascara is one of the best that I have found for giving longer and fuller lashes. It's a nice dark shade of black and I have been complimented on my eyelashes whilst ...
...it the easiest to apply, with the wand quite short and the brush quite small. It is also prone to smudging, it is meant to be waterproof and is to an extent, but I'm not entirely confident it wouls withstand too many tears! In my opinion, the product does not last very long either, going quite 'gunky' after only a short period of time and needing replacing. I have quite sensitive eyes and this does not irritate them, which I was wary of as it is ...
