Rimmel Volume Shake Mascara | Review

Last month I was makeup shopping in Boots when I saw this new Rimmel mascara and saw that it was on offer. I have never tried a Rimmel mascara before this so I decided to buy it and test it out. Also I hadn't heard anything about this mascara before (I haven't been watching many makeup videos recently) so this was very brand new to me and these are my first opinions. 

My thoughts- 
-It has a very wet formula which can get very messy and I did find that it went around my eyes but that's probably because I'm quite careless.
-It's very volumising which the same suggests and I really liked how my lashes looked after using this mascara.
-It also made my lashes quite long too which I weren't expecting but I liked it as I LOVE long lashes.
-The packaging is quite boring colour wise; it is also quite heavy (9g) which means you get a lot of product in. This mascara is supposed to last 12 months so that is pretty amazing.
-Wish it was waterproof as I feel more confident wearing waterproof mascara. I don't know if this smudges if you cried when wearing it as I didn't test that out.
-No clumps which is amazing!
-Would recommend and I would give it 4.5/5

The shake aspect of this mascara is pretty cool as it means when the mascara dries up you just shake the mascara and it will be fresh again. This is a genius idea especially as your only supposed to use a mascara for three months and it takes me more than to finish off a whole mascara.  

Overall I really like this mascara and would recommend it, especially if it takes you a while to finish a mascara or if you just want a good mascara as this is a good one! For more of me follow me on Twitter (@TheLipInsider) and Instagram (@thelipstickinsider)! 

Benefit They're Real Mascara Review

In my last makeup review I said that I wanted to do some more makeup reviews and that's what I'm going to be doing today. The product I'm going to be reviewing is the Benefit They're Real Mascara and I bought this after Christmas with my Christmas money and because it's quite expensive I thought I would review it.

Product- Benefit They're Real Mascara 
Price- £19.95
Where from- I bought mine from Boots
Rating- 4/5

When I first got this mascara I didn't like it because it isn't good for voluminous lashes and that's what I want when I'm not at school. However when I started to do more natural lashes with this for school I realise it's much better at that as this is my strictly school mascara and I use a Maybelline mascara at home. This makes your lashes natural and long so it's more of a daytime mascara rather than an evening mascara as the lashes aren't voluminous. Something I have noticed is that it is quite waterproof even though it doesn't claim it's waterproof and it is hard to get off at the end of the day. I also have found that it doesn't really curl your lashes so before using this I have to curl my lashes, which is something I don't have to do with my other mascaras. To end on a positive I do love the packaging and you can tell it is an expensive mascara from the packaging (but maybe not the box)

So overall I do really like this mascara for natural makeup looks but I probably wouldn't get it again because it's expensive and I would rather spend my money on another high end product to test out. Have you tried this mascara? Let me know your thoughts in the comments below!

Trying £1 Mascara | Review

Recently when I was in Tesco I found some £1 mascara down the brand outlet aisle so I thought as they were cheap I would pick both up and do a review because as it's only £1 you don't really expect much and good quailty from it.

These are the two mascaras that I picked up in Tesco and they are both by the brand Technic, which I have used before but never their mascaras so I'm hoping that they're good but if they're not I won't be too bothered.

Technic Get Lashed Volumising Mascara-

-Very messy as it gets round the eyes and even on your face

-Quite volumising

-Probably wouldn't repurchase because of the messy-ness issue but I will use it up

Technic Monster Lash Mascara- 

-This mascara is not messy unlike the Get Lashed mascara

-Not very moisturising which means that this is more natural than the Get Lashed mascara

-I probably wouldn't repurchase it as I have mascaras that I prefer but I do like it.

Okay that is what I thought of the £1 mascaras from Tesco. These are good if you are on a budget but I probably wouldn't go for them as I have other mascaras that I like better. Sadly Tesco didn't have any more cheap makeup but I do really want to try Poundland makeup.
