As I mentioned before I was taking a little break from blogging but you best believe I was still trying out a bunch of new products.
So not only am I back, I also have a shit ton of new products and stuff to talk about over the next few weeks.
Oh and by new I mean new to me not necessarily a new product.
And dude wtf how is it almost December already?
This past week I've been using the Rimmel London ScandalEyes Mascara.
You know while trying this out I realized I don't have any other Rimmel London Makeup in my collection besides their Stay Matte Primer ($6.99) which by the way is f**king amazeballs.
Okay back to the mascara hahaha.
Rimmel London ScandalEyes Mascara ($6.99)
I have the shade Black.
I bought mine online of course because I'm a hermit and I believe it only comes in Black, Extreme Black, and a waterproof version.
Before I got the ScandalEyes Mascara I hadn't ever heard anything about it, so I had no idea what to expect.
When I think about it now, I don't actually ever hear much about that brand in general.
Which made me check Ulta and they seem to be phasing out all the Rimmel London products, so I can only assume that they'll no longer be carrying it.
I liked the packaging which was a plastic sparkly orange with black writing (total Halloween vibes) and the tapered ends reminded me of the CoverGirl mascara packaging.
This mascara claims to give insane volume with no clumps and also has keratin and collagen for healthy lashes.
I have naturally long lashes and don't wear falsies every day, so when I'm testing out a new mascara I look for ones that I can use without falsies because honestly if it's only to use under false lashes it doesn't really matter what you're using.
The mascara wand is a larger brush with long natural bristles and it's the first thing I noticed when I opened the mascara, I was excited because it looked like it would just brush through your lashes so nicely.
When I finally started using this mascara I found it quite difficult to use, it was like trying to put mascara on with a Cheeto puff.
The bristles were so large that it was quite difficult to get close enough to the base of my lashes to coat because of the brush size and also took longer to apply because I had to go slow as a snail just to avoid the giant brush from touching my face, the brush was also too dense to the point where it didn't really allow my lashes to get in there and brush through and it kinda just stayed on the surface of my lashes.
The mascara formula didn't do much of anything for my lashes, no added length (although that wasn't a claim), no volume whatsoever, and it honestly looked like I didn't even have mascara on.
I continued to use it a couple more times through out the week and even tried this mascara with a lash primer but it just wasn't happening for me.
The one thing it did do was flake all over my face and pretty quickly actually.
I pretty much had black freckles under my eyes, on my cheekbones, and even inside my eyes which was a b*tch because I wear prescription contacts and that shit hurts when you get something in your eye.
Obviously I wouldn't repurchase this or even recommend it because the flaking was just crazy, which means I can't even use it under my falsies.
Check out my previous Mascara Fail review and find out which drugstore mascara to stay the f*ck away from lol.
As you can see my recent choices haven't been that great.
Oh and by the way I'm sorry about using stock photos in this post, if you've read my blog before you'd know I usually never do this but my dumb ass already got rid of the mascara and had no choice.
