Rimmel Nude Scandal Eyes Waterproof Kohl Kajal Review, Swatch, & Photos

Disclosure: This product was purchased with my own money. All opinions are my own.

Rating: 10/10

Sold: Drugstores

Price: $4.49

Description: A yellow-based nude kohl eyeliner; claims to be “smudge-proof and waterproof”

Review:

Pros

  • Incredibly pigmented!
  • Extremely yellow-based – good for concealing redness in the eyes (best for medium to dark skin)
  • So creamy to apply! Literally glides right on to the waterline!
  • Stays very well on my eyes – doesn’t seem to smudge!

Cons

  • If you have light skin with very pink undertones (like myself), I wouldn’t recommend this! It looks extremely yellow compared to the rest of my face and makes me look a little… sick! LOL! ****Although this doesn’t work on my waterline, I have been recommended to try it as a brow highlight! This definitely seems promising!***

Review:

Pros

  • Smooths out the face entirely
  • Leaves a very smooth canvas to work with
  • Doesn’t feel greasy

Cons

  • Not sure if it helps control oil at all, but I would say it controls it better than no primer at all!

Rating: 7/10

Cons

Rimmel Fix & Perfect Primer Review, Swatch, & Photos

Rating: 5/10

Sold: Drugstores

Price: $5.00 - $8.00

Description: Creates a perfect canvas for foundation application; smooths and evens out complexion; prolongs the wear of foundation; minimizes pores

Directions: Apply before face makeup

Review:

Pros
  • Smooths and preps the face for foundation
  • has a more moisturizing texture; rather than oily or silicone-based
  • good amount of product

Cons
  • looks orange on fair skin (only comes in one shade)
  • does not keep foundation on all day
  • does not keep the face matte


Overall, I think this foundation may be good for darker skin tones with normal to dry skin, but for my fair and oily skin tone it did not work.
