Rimmel Flash Eyeliner Review

I was very excited to try this product when I got it in my goodie bag at the Rimmel Masterclass in AWear. I swatched it on the back of my hand and to be honest it looked grand but when I tried to remove it it seemed to stain my hand. That left a bad taste in my mouth to start with. 

Then I tried it on my eyes and while the applicator is lovely (a pen style foam tip applicator) the product itself leaves a lot to be desired.It was watery and sheer. It applied patchy and horribly. Only I was on my way out the door when I was trying it I would have started my eye make up from scratch. As it was I applied my usual liquid eyeliner on top as I was in a rush. (bad idea I know but I had no other choice.

All in all I would have felt hard done by had I bought this product and I definitely will not purchase it unless they reformulate it. 

How do you find this product?

Oh My Goodness Gracious! Humongous Haul!

So I was at the AWear Rimmel Masterclass with Ken Boylan last night and got a fantastic goodie bag which consisted of these products...

When I got home there was a slip from the post office in my post box. They had tried to deliver something. I ran up to the post office this morning to collect it and it turned out to be...

Then I had to go get my cousin some presents for her 30th Birthday tomorrow and popped int Sally's on Drury Street and picked up... 

The one that got away, Teenage Dream, Last Friday Night, Not like the Movies.

The very last Katy Perry miniatures in the shop! I have been dying to get the "not like the movies" one which is the one on the far right but they all look gorgeous! 

I also picked up a few Barry M nail varnishes for spring because they were 2 for €8 - I am such a sucker sometimes. 

If you would like to see any of these reviewed or swatched please let me know. I will be doing reviews soon but as I said my cousins 30th is this weekend in Donegal so it wont be this weekend anyway. 

I will say one thing I am not very impressed with the Rimmel eyeliner. I swatched it on my hand last night and it was so hard to remove and there is still a mark  but that is just my initial opinion but I will try it out over the weekend and let you know how I get on. 

Have a fabulous weekend guys and hopefully we will get some lovely sun to enjoy. I am looking forward to one of these too... 

Rimmel Masterclass in AWear Tomorrow!

I was lucky enough to win a Masterclass with Ken Boylan, one of Ireland's most esteemed freelance make up artists to show us how to do the seasons key looks and introduce us to the new collection. Thanks AWear for the prize.  


I know it wont be just me, I mean there will be loads of other people there but I will be too! Yay!

Anyway I am ridiculously looking forward to it and to letting you all know how I got on and what I got in my goodie bag and how I find the products. I have never been to something like this, hence the over-excitement.  :)
