The New Thing - Rimmel Scandaleyes Eyeshadow Paint

 005 Golden Bronze and 006 Rich Russet

"Long Wear Liquid Eye Shadow. Lasts All Day"

Rimmel are just bringing it at the moment. I honestly don't think that there's another brand, particularly drugstore, that is having so many successful releases at the moment. These bad boys are an extension of the Scandaleyes group. We've got eye liners and shadow sticks, and now, the longest wearing liquid eye product I've ever used in my life.

Now, the colour selection is a little iffy, good if you like brights, but not really any true neutral shades for day wear. These two are my favourite, Golden Bronze, which looks beautiful across the lid with a deep sparkly brown (I love NARS Galapagos for this) blended into the outer corner for an easy smokey look, and Rich Russet, which can be smudged across the lid for a fool-proof smouldering look on its own. 

As far as formula gos, this is infallible. You have around thirty seconds after you've applied this to work with it before it sets, and then that's it, it's going nowhere. I've put this through the wringer, in the shower and bath and it hasn't budged, you need a good makeup remover to shift this. There's a lovely doe-foot applicator, but I've found the easiest way is to pop a bit on your fingers, smudge across the lid and blend out with a fluffy brush (the Real Techniques fluffy crease brush is perfect for this).

You guys know I love Rimmel, and this product is no exception. These are honestly the best eye product I've ever found in terms of wear, and I love these two colours! We just need a Bulletproof Beige equivalent in these! 

Rimmel Scandaleyes Eyeshadow Paint retails at £4.99 and released on July 10th.

All the Little Things.

I'm in debit card imposed spending ban hell at the moment, so there's been a distinct lack of new stuff in my life, which makes me really quite sad. However, some unused Boots points and a package I forgot about have brightened up my sad, non-spending world this week, so I thought I'd show you what I have acquired!

First up, I used my Boots points to repurchase the Rimmel Scandaleyes pencils in Taupe and Nude. I've already done a review of these this week, so click here if you want to know more!

You may or may not be aware, but I came back to Bournemouth this week for a month, paise uni holidays for being so long! Anyway, I arrived home to two slightly chewed (bad kitty's) packages, that I forgot I ordered. The first one was a set of dotting tools from Amazon, that were a penny. Yes a penny. So I snapped those up straight away! I haven't given them a test run yet, but when I do, I'll let you know what theyre like. The second package was two items I ordered from the lovely Gemma from Missmakeupmagpie in her blog sale. They were both brand new but half price! That was the MAC Fix+ spray, and the Illamasqua Under Eye concealer. I haven't tried the Illamasqua Under Eye concealer yet, but when I do I shall give you a full review! All I can tell you at the moment is it's a pinky white cream concealer, and the packaging is gorgeous! As for the Fix+, I haven't tried out all it's functions yet, but I love the dewy look it gives my skin, and how refreshing it is!

And last but not least, my lovely little sister saw these socks in Tesco and thought of me! They're super warm and so cute!

It's my birthday on Monday, (gah, I don't wanna be nineteen!) so you never know, I may have some new things to show you next week!

I love seeing shopping hauls, if you've done one recently please leave me the link!
