The offer on in Boots right now is spend over £5 on Rimmel products and get a Glam Eyes liquid liner free.. awesome! My all time favourite, holy grail liquid liner is the Rimmel Exaggerate so I was really excited to try this out. First up lets take a look at the applicators...
The Exaggerate is more of a flexi-tip nib where the Glam Eyes is a fine brush applicator. I've always loved the original for it's firm yet flexible tip which makes it easy to apply and harder to mess up. It's the perfect medium between a felt tip liner and a brush so I'm not sure whether this new Glam'Eyes would REPLACE my favorite but it's a very nice alternative and I would guess that the forumula is identical.
You can see you can achieve a finer, more precise line with the Glam'Eyes (left) so for those of you that have a steady hand and prefer a brush I'd recommend this above all other alternatives just because I love the Rimmel formula so much but for those of you that prefer a little room for error the original exaggerate (right) is still the one for you. I've had a little play with them both and one thing I will say is the finer brush is great for lining under your eyes and getting in the smaller areas so it's nice to have them both for the different applications.
What's your favourite liquid liner?
I love the exaggerate too, apparently it's also one of sophie ellis bextor's fav eye liners :) I struggle a bit with eye liner, so I will probably stick to my trusty exaggerate! x
ReplyDeletei got the glam'eyes free as well. i don't like the applicator as i find it really hard to create a smooth line and just find it a bit jaggy :( x
ReplyDeleteMy favourite liquid liner is the L'Oreal Super Liner, although I must admit that I mainly stick to gel liners. Having said that though, I think I'll give Rimmel a try next time around! :)
ReplyDeletei dont use liquid liner much to be honest, i keep trying but i cant get the technique right :S
