Rimmel 100% Waterproof Mascara

This Rimmel mascara has been a staple in my make up bag for the last few years. Not because it's something I've stuck with after comparing it with several other brands, but because it's something I once picked up, and didn't really think of to change to another brand. Come to think of it, I keep looking for the best foundation, lip liner, hair products, self tan etc. but never thought about changing to another mascara, before I started to notice my friends using Lancome and Dior mascaras and realising I had stuck to a really cheap and cheerful brand for ages. The mascara is packaged in a pretty cheap-looking, blue tube, with silver coloured text on it. The ...  Read the complete review

I have been looking for a decent waterproof mascara for a long time. A mascara that doesn't run, doesn't smudge, and doesn't leave black marks under my eyes after a long day. However, I have come to the conclusion that such a product does not exist. The nearest I have found so far though, is Rimmel 100% Waterproof Mascara.

However, I find its budge-proof selling point to actually be one of its disadvantages. The mascara is practically impossible to remove from your eyelashes. I found even after using my usual eye make-up remover, which usually cleans everything off, I couldn't get rid of this one. I ...  Read the complete review

The name says it all really! This mascara truely is 100% waterproof and definitely the most waterproof I have ever tried. I can personally atone for it's waterproof qualities by saying that I have been swimming with this mascara on and it really didn't budge. This long wearing capability can be a problem for some people when it comes to removing. Therefore the best way is by using a an oil based cleanser or make up remover. For all the waterproof capabilities it has, there isn't really much more to this mascara. It gives subtle length to my lashes but that's about it! I really want more from a mascara like volume and thickening which I find this mascara doesn't ...  Read the complete review
