This week's review is on the newest addition to the Rimmel Scandeleyes collection - their Retro Glam Mascara.
Just to clarify, I know I'm contradicting myself! Anyway....
If you read my blog regularly, you'll know that I raved about this as the best mascara I had used in a while in my August favourites post - click here to check it out.
However, opinions can change...!
This mascara is supposedly designed to "fit the lashline" with the hourglass shaped brush.
However, it is so oversized that you cannot get to any lashes other than the prominent lashes in the middle of your eye.
Also, this is quite a wet formula. I bought this a few days after it's launch mid-August, and I was really hoping it would dry out a bit to make it a little quicker drying and a bit less smudge-y.
But no, it hasn't.
And, in conjunction with the brush, this means that you have to re-do your make-up at least three times, because you end up with mascara all over your face and eyebrows.
I really wanted to love this.
And in some respects, I do. I really like the look it gives your lashes, very lush and voluminous, but I cannot deal with the whole make-up re-doing. I don't have the time!!!!!!!!
I have the "oversized brush" problem with all of the Scandaleyes Mascaras. But I highly recommend this if you have time to re-do your make-up at least twice every morning!
But hope is not lost. Next week I'm due a massive Avon delivery... including that controversial mascara!!!
If I haven't put you off too much (*laughs*), you can pick this up from Superdrug for £6.99.
Thanks for reading! Stay tuned and follow for more!
