Rimmel Scandaleyes Waterproof Pencil | Review ♥

I have been searching for a decent eyeliner for as long as I've been interested in make up, no matter what I've used in the past, nothing has ever stayed on my waterline for longer then 5 minutes, even if it was along my lash line it would still smudge everywhere.

That was until this bad boy came along, Now this does still fade after a while but it lasts FAR longer then any  others I've used so far, and I've tried a fair few from high street to high end and this one really does go that extra mile. It has a really smooth, creamy texture that doesn't pull or tug on your delicate eye area, after a few seconds it sort of 'sets' and doesn't budge. It also fits into a standard pencil sharpener, which is worth noting.

You get such an intense black line from this eyeliner, and when it says waterproof, it really means it. I've swatched it on my arm and still had a black, slightly faded line there two days later, even after showering, which being a pencil, is pretty damn amazing. 

With a price tag of only £3.99, If you're on the hunt for a black eyeliner, you'd be silly not to try this!
It also comes in a bronze, taupe, nude, silver, purple and blue. I'm not one for bright colours around my eyes, But I do really want to try the Taupe as I think it will be really nice for defining the eyes in a far more subtle way, The nude because it would be a really nice colour to wear on the waterline to make the eye appear bigger, brighter and more awake, And the bronze, because I love a brown liner almost as much as a black, but the shimmer in it really puts me off, but the normal brown shade is only available in America. Boo.

If you've tried any of the Scandaleyes liners, let me know what you think :)
