Rimmel Scandal Eyes Eyeshadow Sticks

^ Top: 003 Bad Girl Bronze. Bottom: 002: Bulletproof Beige.

Rimmel came out with another amazing addition to their Scandal Eyes range, it's time for Eyeshadow Sticks. They are jumbo size pencils that can be used as an eyeshadow or an eyeliner, I personally prefer them as eyeshadows. I got them a couple of weeks ago and I'm absolutely in love. I only have two for now, Bulletproof Beige and Bad Girl Brozne but I will be getting more once a few more shades come out in the spring. The sticks are nicely pigmented and creamy, they blend out really well too. And the two I own look great together, which is how I usually use them. They last for hours, but they do wear off by the end of the day. The longest I had them on was around 10 hours, so that's still really good (at least for me). They are an essential in my makeup bag and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a cool new product to try out.

Rimmel Scandal Eyes Waterproof Eyeliners

^ From top: 005 Nude, 010 Silver, 001 Black

Scandal Eyes have been raved about so much I decided to do a post of my own. I am not a fan of pencil eyeliners in general, because they tend to smudge like crazy or aren't pigmented enough but I have to say I'm really impressed with Rimmel's ones. They have quite a good range of colours, but in Boots or Superdrug you can usually find about 2 or 3 shades. So when I spotted the silver one in Savers I just had to pick it up. They are easy to apply and have a nice, smooth texture. They stay put for hours, but I noticed it's better to put a primer or an eyeshadow base on first even if you're not using eyeshadows (especially with oily eyelids, like mine). They are also well pigmented and I think it would be nice if Rimmel came out with a Scandal Eyes glitter eyeliners. I'm currently trying out Scandal Eyes Eyeshadow sticks, but about that another time. I've heard people complain about sharpening the eyeliner, I haven't had a chance yet but I got my Bourjois sharpener so hopefully that's gonna be enough. All in all I still prefer my L'Oreal eyeliners, but that's the best pencil eyeliner I've tried yet.
