Rimmel London Wonder'Luxe Volume Mascara

I found the Rimmel Wonder'Luxe great to use. The curve of the wand gave my lashes just the right amount of coverage, going on smoothly without gluiness. I could use a single layer for daytime and then layer more mascara over the top for a fuller night time lash look. The pink pop of the packaging gave it an extra, fun edge for my make up purse.

Being one with stumpy non-existent lashes, volume, lengthening and darkening are all the things I look for in mascara. Rimmel Wonder'Luxe Volume Mascara is just my thing!

The packaging of this mascara is oh-so-pretty in it's chrome pink luxe look. It's nice and chubby, so you feel like it's got lots of potential like the expensive versions out there. I love that the handle is square'ish for easy and steady application. My eyes can be sensitive with mascara, so loved that there's no scent with this product. I didn't really feel my eyes were itchy with use either - so in my books that's a big win!

First use observations. Pulling the spoolie brush out, there was just the right amount of product. I didn't have to wipe excess off. The brush itself has a curved side with bristles, and a rounded side with lots of bristles. For me, I applied first with the curved side, to coat the lashes nicely, and separate them too. The brush works well and doesn't clump the lashes together with too much product (I'm prone to user-error in this area with other mascaras!)... The curved side starts the process off, and the rounded side I am assuming thickens the lashes with product, and lengthens them as well. For me, I definitely felt like the mascara delivered on volume, by the bucket-loads, but not as much lengthening. That said though - for day-time dramatic lashes, I thought it was fantastic and was perfect for what I wanted. I liked the final result. Not over done. Not under done.

The mascara itself dries relatively fast. I always manage to sneeze just after applying mascara, and this was no different but the transfer was minimal. Dry, the mascara is actually really nice and soft - not hard like concrete, so the luxurious oils certainly make this a very pleasant mascara to wear, instead of having 'cornflake-crunch' lashes. With nourishing oils though, I found that I was a little 'panda-eyed' by 3pm, but I'm an eye-rubber too, so I don't help the cause. Despite my smudged eye-look in the afternoon (perfect for day-to-night wear! :-) ), a good amount of mascara was still on my lashes which I don't get with very many mascara's. Removal - so easy, it comes off with my regular cleanse, and there's no residue left afterwards. It's definitely a gentle and nourishing mascara against others in the price range.

All up I was really impressed with this mascara. It's gentle on lashes, while also has a bit of 'wow' to it with the volume it gives lashes. The smudging is the only down-side for me, and it's not as lengthening as others out there, but I think this is a great day time mascara for those that like a little drama to their lashes without being over-done. I'll happily re-purchase this one. Thank you Team BR & Rimmel for the review opportunity! xx

I was lucky enough to be picked by BR to trial this mascara. I typically use more premium brands so I was interested to see how this mascara performed. The packaging was quite big for a mascara. It had a nice shape and is very pink and shiny. The wand itself was quite typical and had a rubber end with little bristles which seems to be a popular brush type more generally at the moment. It worked well and didn't put too much product on my lashes. I usually struggle with new mascaras and find them a bit too 'wet' for the first couple of weeks of use but this wasn't the case with this one. The black colour of the product was exactly what I expected and gave a dramatic look. The product stayed where it should, there was no transfer or bits falling off my lashes and when I wanted to remove it, it was easy to remove with the usual wipes I use for the rest of my makeup. I will continue to use this mascara after the trial period ends as it's not too different from Benefit Roller Lash that I've been using before starting this trial. A good product, a good price and good results!

Picked this up in the vault. Metallic pink packaging. Same shape exterior as the rest of the brands Mascara range. Curved comb type brush. Really nice at creating volume and separating lashes. Like this Mascara so much I prefer to wear ot by itself without eye makeup, so my lashes stand out instead. Recommend this Mascara over the Wonder Extension.

I have black lashes that aren’t thick but are probably medium in length. I like my mascara to add both volume and length to my lashes. This mascara was easy to apply and didn’t clump it have too much product on the wand. It was easy to comb through your lashes evenly and spread out your lashes. I applied two coats like normal and the result was a bold look. It lengthened my lashes but didn’t give my lashes as much volume as I would have liked. I will try doing three coats maybe.

This mascara lasted during the day and didn’t come off or flake off. It was also easy to remove. This mascara contains oil to boost the health of your lashes. I have been using this mascara for 1-2 weeks and have not noticed a difference in my lashes but I think it’s too early to notice anything.

The wand is made of a rubber type material that is flexible rather than have brush bristles. I prefer this type of wand (similar to the material of a benefit roller lash wand).

Packaging is a shiny metallic dusty pink tube that has flat angled sides. I like this tube as it not the typical round cylinder shape. I thought it would be awkward to hold but it’s not.

Overall this mascara is decent and really good for the price. I will continue to use this mascara but it’s not my favourite as I would like more volume in my lashes.

What a cute design! It’s a bulky, unique shaped mascara (probably twice the thickness of the usual mascaras you would see). It’s even coated in a pretty, shiny layer of chrome pink. So here you go pink lovers! The mascara was extremely light-weighted. Even though it’s bulkier than the usual mascara’s, it wouldn’t add much of a weight.

Taking out the wand itself, i noticed the curved applicator tip, and the fine comb-like bristles. The mascara itself seems to have a nice and smooth texture to it, which reminds me of the liquid eye liners. I didn’t see much of tiny black dusty bits or stringy fibres stuck to the bristle. It looked almost clump free, but never know until you try it on... So here it goes!

The comb-like bristles make it a lot easier to prevent too getting too many tiny bits on your lashes. Initially there was too much product on the brush, where i had to scrape it off on the sides of the tube few times. I have long, straight lashes of moderate thickness. The mascara highlighted the length of my lashes, making it more defined, but because my stubborn lashes that takes a lot of effort to curl, i didn’t expect much help from this mascara to keep the curl in shape. Although the mascara didn’t help keep my lashes curled, the mascara didn’t have a lot of the usual flakiness that you see in a lot of mascaras, due to it’s wet texture.

The mascara is buildable so not too difficult to add a more bulky look. However, if i brushed too many layers on my stubborn lashes, the more difficult for me to separate my lashes out, as the mascara builds in thickness rather than length, which straightens my lashes, and will add in that usual sticky tackiness when i blink my eyes, which i find quite uncomfortable. However, the mascara worked nicely on my thinner bottom lashes for some reason. Maybe due to my technique.

It is convenient and easy to remove even with just warm water. Yes, sorry water-proof mascara lovers.. This mascara is not waterproof. But looking on the bright side, It doesn’t adhere strongly to your skin, so it wont smudge out as bad as the usual mascaras that would give you an obvious panda eye when trying to remove your make up or any oopsies. I find removing waterproof eye make up really difficult. A lot of times after removing mascara, i had to scrub and wipe so hard that the skin around my eyes eventually turns red, but it’s not the case for this gentle one.

I love how Rimmel makes and keeps their products at an affordable price to customers. Although, this product wasn’t made for my lashes, i do like the more natural approach of this mascara, as it wasn’t too heavy. And i loved how there’s less flaky bits, as i always found it irritating trying to get rid of the tiny bits that gets into your eye. I wouldn’t recommend it to those who‘s loyal to a dry, fibrous mascara. But i do recommend this mascara for those who wants to further define their long, fine, and naturally curled lashes, but prefer the simple, minimal make up look.

The actual formula is very nice , and l like the formulas ingredients, l found it lasted all day with out smudging. I found it really hard to use the bush , it's hard small curved shape is very uncomfortable to apply . Which l think is the only negative l found with it Would hesitate to recommend due to brush shape

i like the colour of the bottle, its very trendy. easy to open and a nice big handle which makes applying a breeze... that's all the pros i can say about this product because i was very underwhelmed with its formulae and coverage. I have very big, naturally dark eyelashes which in turn makes mascaras look like they work well so it's easy for me to tell a formula that doesnt. this one was well under par with its performance and application. first off it clumped my lashes togther with the first swipe of the horrendous applicator wand. plus it went on my skin while applying which is super annoying if you have all ready to be foundational nd eye stuff. basically its a crappy mascara and i would recommend buying a different one.

Consistency is creamy and the product had clumps through it which creates a problem while applying the product. The brush is a curled applicator wand which is enjoyable to use for application. The product lasted through the day without flaking or smearing. The packing is nice the colour is a metallic pink and easy to twist open and it’s not too big or small to hold. Results is not what I expected the product did not add volume to my lashes and it doesn’t provide much lift for my lashes which is surprising considering a curler wand is supposed to help provide the curled up effect. I would recommend if you do use this product to use a different brush for the lower lashes as it smudges and leaves uneven finish. I wouldn’t recommend this product to my friends there are so many others out there and this one is average. The price at farmers is $22 I wouldn’t pay that much for it.
