Rimmel Scandaleyes Show Off Mascara: Review

#bbloggers
I don't do many straight reviews, but I enjoy reading them, so why the hell don't I write some. Today I shall be sharing my thoughts on this Mascara by Rimmel. I think this is the first Rimmel mascara I've used since I was about 14. I'm a big fan of YSL Shocking, but I'm a bit poor these days so I thought I'd give this a whirl.  Based in no small part on the hot pink packaging. 

The price is very purse friendly (RRP £5.99), and you can get it in any Boots or Superdrug and some Supermarkets. Always a plus, as I hate trekking to get an obscure makeup item.

The formula is a bit thin and takes a while to dry but the brush makes up for it. It has a little ball on the end which makes it easy to get into corners and to coat the teeniest of lashes. 

I did find that my lashes looked good- but not amazingly good. I'd buy it again as it's a great budget buy. I'll probably wash the brush (it's silicone or rubber) when it's finished and use it with other mascaras.

Have you tried this? What's your favourite mascara?

wow your eyelashes look great- think i might have to pick this up.
in the past i only used boots nautral collection mascara (rather dull but it suited me) until it ran out and i bought one from topshop. Im a little embarassed about how few (i have one) i own and how unadventurous i am at trying them

Your eyelashes looks perfect! Even if you don't say so...I am even a bit jealous...I don't get this efefct :( My favourite mascara is Maxfactor False Lash Effect (actually I didn't try a lot of others) but I am thinking to try this now..the brush is a little different maybe I will get such a goof effect as you.Btw, it is really "purse friendly". One more reason to try it!

Bourjois Volume Glamour Ultra Curl is a really good one, I think it's about £8.99 too so doesn't break the bank. I totally get what you mean about this one taking a while to dry.
