REVIEW- Rimmel London Colour Precise Eyeliner

Today I am going to be reviewing the Rimmel London Colour Precise Pen eyeliner. I picked this up about a week ago in my local Sainsbury's supermarket, as I really needed a new eyeliner pen but didn't have the time to go into town and go to Boots to get my usual one (Collection Extreme 24 Hour Felt Tip Liner). I am not usually a big fan of Rimmel products, as in the past I've found the mascara doesn't do anything for my eyelashes, and the palest foundation is too orange for my skin; but as the choice was between Rimmel and  Max Factor, with the latter being more expensive, I decided to risk it and buy the Rimmel eyeliner, as you can't really go wrong with eyeliner, can you? Wrong.


When I first used the eyeliner, I found that it didn't produce much colour at all. Instead of looking black, as it was supposed to, it looked more of a grey, which was very disappointing. I thought that the pen would be easy to use as well, because of the thin nib, but the nib was actually very bendy and didn't make the line any thinner than my old Collection eyeliner. I had to keep pressing the pen to my eyelid to get even a tiny amount of black to come out, it just wasn't very good at all.

I have ended up having to revert back to the old previous eyeliner I had bought with a christmas voucher, the Soap & Glory Supercat Eyeliner Pen, which was a lot better and still produces more colour now than the brand new Rimmel one!


Overall, I wouldn't recommend this product. It wasn't very cheap either, as it was around the £5.00 price mark and I usually pay about £3.00 for the Collection eyeliner.
I would say, save your money and look for another eyeliner, preferably not a Rimmel one!
