Review: RIMMEL EXTRA SUPER LASH MASCARA

Rimmel London has a new mascaras-- EXTRA SUPER LASH and EXTRA WOW LASH!! Both priced at $2.99 at my local Target. I chose to buy EXTRA SUPER LASH versus EXTRA WOW LASH because the brush on WOW looked huge and I don't like big bristled brushes because I always manage to mess up!

Product details/description:
  • BODY BUILDING MASCARA.
  • Builds lashes from natural to dramatic by thickening and lengthening lashes coat after coat.
  • You can control the volume.
  • Super lash separation.
  • Suitable for sensitive eyes.
  • Ophthalmologically tested.
  • Made in England.


First reaction before trying product:
Packaging looks cute and it's not bulky either, opposite of CoverGirl's LashBlast which is ginormous!  

Formula seems to be dry. Drier formulas tend to hold curl better versus wet formulas. Wetter formulas tend to weigh down your lashes making the curl fall. Example of a wet formula would be Maybelline's Great Lash.




The special LIFT & BUILD brush is cone shaped,
the tip being pointed to make it easier to coat hard to
reach areas making sure every lash is coated.

 
 
Overall I really like this mascara!! I didn't use an eyelash curler and it did lift and build my lashes even made my lashes curl up more. Be in mind that my lashes were already semi-curly naturally. Does a good job in separating each lash. Clumping is minimal. Formula dries pretty fast. I think two coats is good enough.
