Rimmel London Scandaleyes Shadow Stick
Hello there,
Today I am going to review two eye crayons from Rimmel London Scandaleyes.
Shade: Paranoid Purple and guilty grey
Price: Rs 415/- for 3.25g
Rimmel London Claims:
“High impact colour Precision tip applicator Ultra soft formula glides on smoothly High-shine and luminous finish.”
My experience with Rimmel London Scandaleyes Shadow stick:
I personally feel eye shadow sticks are a boon to us. Something that is simple and quick to use always makes your daily make up faster and easier. That’s what Rimmel London has come up with “Scandaleyes eye shadow stick” offering a good range of wearable shades. These sound great for those who are busy in their regular life and plus who are lazy but still want to have some eye makeup on soon..This eye shadow stick is about 4 inches long, and it looks like chubby stick with a transparent cap. Color is visible through the transparent cap plus at the bottom of the pencil. Also, these pencils are not retractable, you need to sharpen them. That’s a big con for me.
The pigmentation is very good; the color is transferred in one swipe itself, one doesn’t need to layer the eye shadow again and again. I am very impressed with how this creamy and soft texture, literally glide on so quickly and easily with kind of a sparkly finish to achieve lovely eye makeup . It doesn’t look cakey at all on your eyelids. The creamy formula blends easily thereby making them great as a base for powder eye shadow or to wear these as an eyeshadow on their own. After blending it doesn’t become patchy or uneven, what you get is an even finish eyeshadow color.
Now about the two shades-Paranoid Purple is a lovely purple shade. This is a purplish shade with a bit of shimmer that adds brightness to the eyes. A bit of purple shimmer can be seen but it does not overpower the color rather just adds a dimension to the tint. I find this less pigmented than the grey one.
Guilty Grey is a grayish granite shade with fine shimmer- this is an absolutely perfect shade for smoky eyes.It claims to be 24 hours waterproof, it stayed on my eyes for good 8+ hours and that too very intact without smudging even a bit, during sweaty summer as well. And finally, yes its waterproof!! You need to remove it using a bi-phased eye makeup remover.
Pros of Rimmel London Scandaleyes Eyeshadow Stick:
• Absolutely smudge proof formula
• Blends easily
• Amazing color payoff in one single swipe
• An amazing base for powder eye shadows
• Super easy to carry and touch up
• Dermatologist and ophthalmologist tested
• Value for money
Cons of Rimmel Scandal Eyes Eyeshadow Stick:
• Sharpening would lead to product wastage.
IMBB Rating: 4.7/5
Would I repurchase Rimmel London Scandaleyes eye shadow stick?
These eye shadow sticks are super convenient to use and the quality is at par with the pricing. The staying power is quite decent and it has excellent pigmentation. I love this shadow stick- the color, the color payoff, texture, staying power- there’s nothing to not love about this product, except for the product wastage bit. I would suggest you to try them for sure.
I just wish these were retractable instead of this sharpen-able pencil packaging. It would have made life so much easier. Hence I would definitely buy more these eye shadow sticks. The price at which Rimmel London is offering these shadow sticks is absolutely worth it and would recommend every one to have at least one of these.
