Rimmel Scandaleyes Retro Glam Mascara

Hello everyone,

Another mascara review!

This one has been sitting in my drawer for a little while.  I finally started using it about 3 weeks ago. I like it!  I don't loooove it!  But I don't hate it!  It's well priced.  It gives loads of volume and seperation to your lashes.  It's very black so creates beautiful definition without having needing to apply several coats.
The hourglass wand  creates lift and volume without too much clumpiness.

Having said that the wand does pick up alot of product and there needs to be depositing of product back into the tube.  But it's not too much of a bother.  The only downside for me is that is does smudge underneath the eyes.  I do have issues with this as I use quite emolient foundation and concealers which may add to the problem.  I suspect using the waterproof one would resolve this issue.  Haven't tried the waterproof yet but will let you know when I do.

Rimmel's Scandaleyes Retro Glam retails for around $16.95 AUD and you can buy it in Priceline, Target, K Mart and Big W.    Honestly some of you will love it and some of you will hate it.  But  you won't know until you try will you?  All in all it still doesn't beat my all time fave (at this point) L'Oreal's False Lash Butterfly Wings mascara but for the price I think it's worth it.  

Let me know what you think.


Until next time
