Well, this is obviosly not the best mascara i've tried.
Bad things..
1. It takes ages for it to dry, so do NOT buy this if you are hurry in the morning!
2. It says "Ultra volume, high definition mascara". It doesn't give ANY volume. But It's lengthening, i think.
3. If you want volume, don't buy this,but if you want length, you could give it a try.

Good things..
1. The brush is good, cuz it's so thin.
2. It is actually waterproof
3. I read in other comments that i smudges alot. But for me it lasts all day without any smudge.

This was one of my very first mascaras and it's was so crap! I HATE the brush!!!! It does absolutely nothing and is so difficult to build up and do 2 or 3 coats, it doesn't 'comb' through your lashes nicely at all. Plus it was really hard to get off, even with a pretty good makeup remover. It turned me off waterproof mascaras.

This mascara seems to take forever to dry! Sometimes i'll put it on and then a few hours later I notice black smudges underneath by eyes and on my brow bone. I will not be repurchasing.

Does not deliver what it promises! The product is thick and clumpy when applied and the formula seems really heavy, which makes my curled lashes stick right down after application. It is also very wet and takes a long time to dry so when I blink after applying it, the product gets onto the skin under my eyes. It does give a bit of length but no volume whatsoever. Also, the wand is very flexible and the both times that I've used it, the brush got into my eyes. The only positive thing I have to say about this is that it has nice packaging.

I bought this when the last tube of my L'Oreal Volumious turned out to be a clumpy mess (maybe they changed the formula?) Anyhow, I had seen good reviews for it and it was very cheap, so I figured what the heck. I don't find it goes on too wet at all. It makes my lashes look a mile long. Now, I do use Latisse every couple of days, but my lashes are really pale. With the Latisse and this mascara---va-voom! Doesn't do much about volume, but that's okay---might be too much. I don't want to look like I have false eyelashes on, and very few in this world are blessed with very long, very thick lashes. It's usually one or the other, right? And the brush seems absolutely useless, but it does a real good job---get's even my weeniest lashes.

Gosh, I hated this!!! The brush is sooo weird and it just didn't do anything to my lashes. It only painted them black. fortunate rimmel is not that expensive so I will get over it... this is going to my trash bag.

This is one of the worst mascara's I've tried.

The brush does nothing to separate. The bristles are too short to do so. It clumps upon application. The formula is very 'wet.' I experienced zero volume, separation, or lengthening.


What really upset me the most is how long it took to dry. I buy waterproof mascaras specifically because my lashes will NOT hold a curl, so I need one that dries fast. It doesn't feel waterproof whatsoever. 2 minutes and it still will not have dried and my lashes are back to stick straight.


If you have hard to curl lashes, skip this one.

I bought this recently. It doesn't curl my lashes like i hope it will but it does lengthens them. but it took FOREVER to dry up. why oh why? not a good option if you're bespectaled and in a hurry (like me) coz you might smudge your glasses. the formula seems a bit heavy for my puny lashes so i'm afraid to apply more than 2 coats. however, i love the brush. kinda unique..

i bought this because i liked the regular version quite a lot and, even though i knew Rimell waterproof mascaras are not nearly as good as their regular ones i was hoping i woud at least be "decent".

PROS: the only good thing i can say about it is that, once it dires, i doesn't smuge or flake, like numerous other waterproof mascaras, even high end ones, do on me

CONS:
- it doesn't separate lashes nearly as well as the regular version; in fact, it's hard to believe they both have the same name & brush
- it doesn't lenghen one bit; it thickens a little, but that goes hand in hand with the bad separation of lashes
- the biggest problem i had with it was that it took AGES to dry; i would put it on my lashes, let it dry for a fair amount of time, then went about my business, only to discover that when i closed my eyes 4-5 minutes later for whatever reason, the mascara had smuged all over my carefully applied eyelid base, foundation, concealer, setting powder, eyeshadow and eyeliner. AND, because it is waterproof, you can't just lightly pat it away: you have to wipe all of your eye makeup off and start all over again. down the dust bin it went.

im not really a mascara user, in the past ive only tried two mascaras which are Revlon's Lash Fantasy & Revlon's Luxurious lengths. i found glam'eyes similar too the Lash fantasy except it could seperate lashs real nicely. as for i have asian eyelashes which are the stubborn straight ones, after i using a curler and applying glam'eyes, i have to recurl again or my eye lashes droop down a lot, which in another words, it cannot hold a curl :(
i dont find this mascara that great except for the absolutely adorable pink and black bottle. but it does seperate eyelashes quite well and leaves them soft. it says 10x more volumized and 80% longer lash look .. but i find that it does not volumize at all although it does give the lashes a bit more length
[EDIT] actually im getting the hang of this product, using the different lengths of the brush alternatively to get a nice look, i love it: ). recently ive received many compliments on my eyelashes such as they are very long or if i am wearing falsies.

I didn't actually buy this product myself. As i was running out this was bought for me as a quick replacement until i could get one myself. I wasn't expecting that much from it to be honest but it turned out to be very good for a drug store brand. It makes your lashes long a thin but never clumps. Even in you like you lashes to be thick its good to put on after a thick mascara to lengthen it and remove any clumps.
The only problem i had was i bent the wand itself very easily a few times but never the less i would recommend this product to anyone who likes their drugstore brands.

This is a pretty descent mascara. It makes my somewhat thin lashes longer. It does not clump and has great staying power.This is one of the best rimmel mascaras.

Good for defining lashes, otherwise not very good. The wand allows you to coat your lashes and separate them so no clumping. But I find that the formula, even though it's waterproof, weighs down my lashes so they straighten out into this half-curled state (for ref I have typical stick-straight Asian lashes). I have not been able to get it to add length or volume.


Mine came in a black and blue tube. I like the wand, but I don't think this mascara is worth the price.

ive come to realise that even thought rimmel mascaras are awesome, the waterproof ones are absolute crap. this mascara seriously does nothing but make my already black lashes, wet. its takes so long to dry so i end up with mascara all under my eye. gives me spikey spider lashes

this mascara does nothing on my thick lashes..
it didnt volumise,curl or lengthen my lashes.. it only makes them look glossy black. luckily it was cheap eventhough i was disappointed with this product. Wont buy again, i'll stick with my Maybelline Volum Express WP mascara.

This wasn't bad mascara; and the price was definitely right. This mascara lengthens pretty well. It didn't do much for volume for me, though. While it would be OK to throw on to go to the grocery store or run for take out, it's not something I would buy again. It was just so so.

i love this mascara. doesn't clump up and goes on smoothly and just enough. i think it's the brush that does it helps lengthens and separates my lashes. this is the first mascara that i haven't had any mistakes with. i'll keep buying this one.

Love this mascara, love it because you don't have to "work it" the get impact. It's quick in the morning and it's buildable. Doesn't clump. The tube lasts a long time too.
