Rimmel London Magnif'eyes Eye Contouring Palette Review

I bought the Smoke Edition of the Magnif'eyes palettes. I really like the colour range. They give more of a shimmer than glitter effect. The colour pots have lasted well. Wee chunks do fall out over time though. I like the fact that it has a place to leave your applicators. The container itself is quite long so a bit of a pain to put in a regular sized makeup bag. Overall - happy with this eyeshadow.

I picked this pallette up from the CS Factory sale . I got it for $5 a real bargain at the time . I wouldn’t normally buy a drugstore brand eye shadow but I wanted to give this a try.

This pallette comes with 12 pans of colours . Lid of this pallette is clear so you can see these colours through it . First shade is a metallic white shade it’s pigmented with fall out . Second shade beautiful shimmery gold I be worn this shade lasts half of day . Next color is this Rose Gold colour has a bit of crumbly fall out . Next shade metallic brown pigmented. Beautiful copper shade is next most pigmented out of them all . Disappointing shades were the matte they were patchy not easy to build on either.

Overall there was highs and lows with this pallette. I think there could have been a light matte colour to help blend these shades together . I can’t see myself repurchasing this again.

I like the range of colour on the palettes and it works as decent eyeliners with acceptable staying power when used with a wet brush.

Apart from that, the shadows are very hard to build up when used with dry brush, don't last as long as Rimmel's older eye shadow products used to be, very "dusty" and crumbly (not ideal for me as a softlens wearer).

Using eye primer doesn't help either.

Still hasn't chucked this in the bin as I like looking at the colours. Strange but true.

I've used alot of Rimmell products in the past so thought I would try the above as the range has some awesome colours. Love the colour palette but disappointed that they are not very pigmented and seemed to irritate my eyes a bit which is unusual for Rimmell as its been a brand I can trust, I wont repurchase as have other brands i prefer and found the palette quite expensive for what it is which is a shame as I would have loved to have tried a few others.
