The first one I got is in nude. I had never been a fan of putting white eyeliners in my bottom waterline to brighten the eyes. But I thought a nude color would look more natural. I fell in love with the nude one because it looks more natural and it stays on very well. So I thought if it could stay in the waterline fore this long, it must be very long lasting on the lash line as well. I got the black, brown, purple, and blue ones.

Brown | Purple | Black | Deep Blue | Nude

I have to say that they are really creamy and almost remind me of the consistency of Urban Decay's 24/7 eyeliners. If you've read the REVIEW, you know that I really didn't like the Urban Decay liners because the staying power was awful on me. However, the staying power of Rimmel Scandaleye eyeliners are much better. The brown one stays one and doesn't smudge throughout the day. The other darker shades may smudge a little bit. But if you pad the lash line with cotton swaps after you apply the eyeliner to take off some excess, it will not smudge throughout the day.

These are definitely by far the best eyeliners I've ever used. I would even say they're better than Urban Decay and Make Up For Ever eyeliners. They are super creamy and super long-lasting. They are really high end quality. I would even be willing to pay $20 for them. At $4.49 apiece, I really can't think of any reason not to get them.

Pros:
  • Wide range of colors
  • Long lasting
  • Creamy, easy to apply
  • Good for waterline
Cons:
  • No matte brown shade
  • Some shades can transfer throughout the day. But this can be avoided if you pad the lash line to take off the excess right after you apply eyeliners.
Worth the hype? YES! I highly recommend them!
Great for: Everyone
