First, was their liquid mousse foundation (see post here) and now this mascara.  Huge thanks to Influenster for providing this in my RoseVoxBox otherwise I probably would not have tried any Rimmel products any time soon.

The 60s are back in full swing with a thicker, fuller, wide-eyed look!  Rimmel London Scandaleyes Retro Glam Mascara brings you a bold, wide-eyed look, fanned out volume, and no clumps for lashes that are up, out and over the top!

Unfortunately, I was not blessed with long, luscious eyelashes like my husband and children.  Haha.  So it is always hard for me to find a good mascara that will really lengthen and volumize my eyelashes, which this mascara did for me.  I know it may not seem like much from my pictures, but I was very pleased with the look it gave my lashes.  I only used one coat If you really want more volume, you will need to add more coats, but be careful because it will clump.

As for the hour shape wand, it got all the spots I needed to coat my top lashes but with my bottom lashes, it got a little messy since I rarely have any lashes down there to begin with.

Review: Rimmel London Stay Matte Liquid Mousse Foundation https://www.dgsbeauty.com/2013/11/02/review-rimmel-london-stay-matte-liquid-mousse-foundation/ https://www.dgsbeauty.com/2013/11/02/review-rimmel-london-stay-matte-liquid-mousse-foundation/#comments Sat, 02 Nov 2013 14:18:44 +0000 Dinah Sadie https://www.dgsbeauty.com/?p=6097

I have been dying to get my hands on the Rimmel London Stay Matte Liquid Mousse Foundation especially since I have been hearing such great reviews on this product.  Thanks to Influenster I got to have this opportunity to test it out.

Rimmel London Stay Matte Liquid Mousse Foundation is feather-light, liquid mousse blend flawlessly for natural-looking, all day shine control.  Silky smooth formula leaves a perfectly matte, baby-soft finish.  Light weight texture won’t feel heavy or greasy.

With the foundation being a liquid mousse, it is important not to put too much on.  You do not need much to blend the right amount for the perfect matte finish.

As you look at my pictures above, you could see how well it performed on my skin!  I loved that it made my skin look flawless and natural at the same time.  Its staying power is impressive for a drugstore brand foundation and feels as if you do not have anything on.  This liquid mousse foundation is just what my face needed.  Overall, I think this is a must have for your makeup collection.

What are your thoughts?

Rimmel Scandeleyes Mascara Review by: Sidrah (MakeupMew) (Guest Post) https://www.dgsbeauty.com/2012/09/22/rimmel-scandeleyes-mascara-review-by-sidrah-makeupmew/ https://www.dgsbeauty.com/2012/09/22/rimmel-scandeleyes-mascara-review-by-sidrah-makeupmew/#comments Sat, 22 Sep 2012 22:00:00 +0000 Dinah Sadie https://www.dgsbeauty.com/2012/09/22/rimmel-scandeleyes-mascara-review-by-sidrah-makeupmew/

Hello Everyone!

I’m so excited to be doing this review here for Dinah. I will be reviewing a mascara that’s been quite popular in Europe and Middle East from Rimmel London. Lately the brand has been releasing a few Scandalous makeup products from gel liners to mascaras. The Rimmel Scandeleyes Mascara promises a Supersize formula with Triple collagen and keratin formula that plumps even the thinnest lashes, I must say that’s a lot of promises. So what were my results?

What Rimmel Says:

It’s time to get involved in a scandal. And this time, it’s massive. Introducing ScandalEyes, our first big brush mascara that quickly reveals even shy, unnoticeable lashes in one simple stroke! Our MaxDensity™ brush is 50% larger, covering the whole lash line to capture each and every lash. Lash Out Loud! 12x more volume and scandalous eye opening impact! No clumps.

Packaging:

The huge orange tube won’t be difficult to find in your makeup kit. The mascara comes with a gigantic brush, seriously this is the size of my eye! I’m not a fan of this sort of brush since it’s so huge, it leaves my inner corner lashes without any product. If you have larger eye, this brush would be perfect for you. The massive brush has a few gaps so it sticks my lashes together.

Application:

Applying the mascara with such a huge brush is a bigger hassle when you’ve already applied your makeup. With my swatch, you can tell that the mascara smudges all over my lash line.

My Experience:

I never fall into huge claims from mascaras, larger than life lashes…yea right! I am very picky about mascara. For me, I suffer from straight droopy lashes, which is difficult to curl and a bigger challenge to keep it curled all day. This mascara was a miss for me for many reasons. The brush is massive, it’s difficult to work with on my small eyes and ends up sticking my lashes together. The product gets smudged all over my lash line. The formula is similar to Maybelline’s Falsies Mascara, it’s wet and you really need a small amount of the product which ends up only lengthening your lashes and doesn’t give any volume. The wet formula doesn’t help to keep my lashes curled.

Recommended For: Those who have long and naturally curled lashes, this will work for you. If you don’t have any trouble with wet formulas or large brushes.

Pros-

·      Lengthens Lashes

Cons-

·      Wet Formula

·      Sticks Lashes Together

·      Massive Brush Smudges all over eyes

·      Brush difficult to use

·      Doesn’t volumize lashes

·      Brush doesn’t coat inner lashes

Overall: A huge brush that smudges mascara all over my small eyes, don’t recommend it!
