On a recent trip to the UK (the girls are just fab at make up there!), my niece used the Rimmel London Exaggerate Liquid Eye Liner on me and I was mesmerized by the deep black colour and at how long it lasted (does not fade).
Unlike the other liners I’ve reviewed, this isn’t a pen. It’s a small pot with an applicator that creates smooth and precise lines. I bought my first one 4 months ago and have used it EVERY DAY since then and it’s still going! It hasn’t dried up or lost its pigment and the felt tip is still perfect.

So as you can see, a
2.5ml bottle lasts really long, but to be honest, even if it got me through one
month I’d still go back and buy it.
It’s a really good
quality product and passed all my tests:
·
Rich in colour,
even over tons of eyeshadow.
·
No fading.
·
No smudging.
·
No flaking.
·
No transfer
onto eyelids.
·
Once you
apply, it dries quickly on your lids, so no smearing.
·
Not bulky
to carry around.
·
Easy to
use and apply.
·
Product goes
a long way and keeps its consistency.
The colour I have is: 001
100% Black. I still like my Urban Decay
Liquid Eye Pen but if truth be told I
haven’t used it since I bought the Exaggerate. And if I had to pick between the
two I’d go for the Rimmel one.
When I got back to
South Africa, I did some checking online, and I've discovered it’s not sold
here. There is a Rimmel Exaggerate Eyeliner available at Clicks. However, it's the “Waterproof”
version.

It’s not the exact
product but I think its pretty close and a bargain at R89.95*. Rimmel's site says the Waterproof version lasts 24 hours (vs. 16 hours) and has a glossy finish. I will
definitely be trying it out and letting you know. But if you can get your hands
on the one from London, don’t hesitate!! And if anyone spots it in any of the
stores here please let me know.
**Update** I've just been informed by the beautiful Ranaa that Rimmel London Exaggerate Liquid Eye Liner is in fact available at Clicks (not sure why it doesn't show online but yay!!). She says it's the only one she uses and if you have a look at the photos on her blog (link below), you'll see why! She always looks gorgeous!
