One item I never leave the house without wearing is mascara. I am a total mascara fiend and make my way through tubes of the stuff, usually before its best by date! When the new Rimmel Scandaleyes Reloaded dropped through my letter box, there was a bit of a squeal. I have been quite a fan of Rimmel mascara right through adulthood and when something promises to give long-lasting lash drama, it is the only drama I want and need in my life.
The most scandalous mascara is back with a breakthrough – enter a new dimension of extreme volume without clumping, now with unstoppable, sweat-proof, smudge-proof, 24HR wear.
Rimmel London ScandalEyes Reloaded Mascara features a clump-free formula which give extreme volume, extreme wear and is easy to remove with water. All of this comes courtesy of the new Formula with First to Market Patented Technology. This formula which has special flexible polymers builds volume fast onto every single lash in an intense, deep black mascara from root to tip and it is said that you can apply 11 years of mascara without causing a single clump. Using a specially designed tapered max-density brush which works to capture every single eyelash, even those teeny tiny ones right in the corner of your eyes.
Now I have only been so bold as to apply 2-3 layers and impressively it does not clump, I happen to think 2 coats is more than enough for me, but others may wish to test the 11 coats theory! It is certainly sweat-proof having been squashed on a tube at rush hour when it gets quite sticky, I was glad to find that after a bit of a sweat I didn't end up looking like a panda and even wiping my face, it didn't smudge, not one iota!
The biggest claim for me is that you can remove it with just water, well guess what? yes you can and yes it does. One wet cotton wool pad with luke warm water wiped across the eye and it removes the whole lot, just like that. No need for make-up remover!
Alongside these two mascaras is also two rather fabulous felt-tip liners. Now, it is no secret that I sometimes (read most of the time) struggle with eyeliner, I have no patience which doesn't help but I can somehow manage to do a half decent job with these!

Like the mascara, both are designed to stay put for up to 24 hours, are waterproof, smudge-proof, heat-proof and humidity-proof and really easy to remove!
I have become an instant of these products as you might have guessed but as well as being good products, they are both amazing prices with the ScandalEyes Reloaded Mascaras priced at £6.99 and the ScandalEyes Liner £5.49 and you can find them here.
