Very happy with the colour I picked

I honestly can't speak for other colours, but I have this in "001, Witness White", and I'm extremely happy with it. I'll tell you how I use it and how it compares to what I used to use for the same purpose. Okay, so I use this only for the inside corner of my eye (teardrop) and what I used to use is NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil. So in comparison to NYX, Rimmel lasts all day (and I literally mean it; it d...read moreoesn't move at all), and I only need very little because it's very pigmented. Once again, I'm only speaking for the colour I'm using. NYX used to come off by the end of the day, and it was a bit more creamy, so if I touched my eye or something like that, it would be the end of it. Rimmel stays put no matter how many times I touch my eyes. The only quality I think it might be missing is the "blendability" for those who would like to use it as eye shadow and be able to blend it with other colours. It works best if you just apply it where you need it and leave it there. It's almost water-proof in my opinion - very long lasting.

Stick with NYX jumbo pencil instead.....

I bought this because I wanted a rose gold eyeliner to brighten up my eyes instead of a harsh full on white so I got the color Champagne. The color is beautiful and the product is more creamier than the NYX jumbo pencil but with that said, it creases more too. Because this product is really creamy it tends to be more oily, leaving my eyelids itchy. This alone doesn't work well but with the oilines...read mores to this, it works better with eyeshadow on top so that it doesn't make my eyelids itchy and oily.

Light Shades Are Multi-use

I bought the white and pale beige shades and not only do they make great long wearing eye base shades but they also work as highlighters on the rest of the face for lighter skin shades. The white works great in the corner of the eye for that "little extra sparkle" that makeup artists keep giving as a tip. You can also use it to line the bow on your top lip which is a great MUA tip I picked up re...read morecently. Both shades worked great as highlighters to hit the spots on the face where the light should catch, the cheekbone and under the brow bone. The product definitely stayed very well and I will be collecting more shades.

Cheaply made pencil.

I was excited to try this out. The color seemed ok but a bit hard, too much tugging when applying. Not good for your eye area. But the cap broke, too brittle. The eye color stick part fell out. The pencil does not sharpen evenly, so there are sharp edges around the stick. It was unusable before, not it feels dangerous too use.

Intense color

The colors of these jumbo crayons are very nice and intense. The texture is creamy so easy and comfortable to apply. But because it's a jumbo crayon, it's hard to be precise... so I prefere the smaller version.

Works good but..

sharpening it is a hassle! Other than it is long wear and doesn't smudge.

paranoid purple

I wish I could say I loved this but not too much. It does have lasting power especially when you layer an eyeshadow. This works perfectly for a smokey eye look though! I'd give another shade a shot though

Rimmel Scandal Eye Shadow Stick

Bought the purple shade; took off the cap and tried to slowly bring it across my lid. The color tip broke off and that was the end of it since I can't figure out if there is a twist mechanism to extend the remaining shadow color. Wasted my money because other than rubbing the color on my finger tips and tapping them gently on my eye lids, there is no other way for me to use this product. And I like all the other Rimmel products I've used. Yikes!

Great Product

This eyeshadow is creamy and goes on smoothly and easily. I purchased the Bulletproof Beige and it has a beautiful golden tine to it, subtle but shimmery. These sticks can go on lightly or made very intense, and the pencil tip allows you to make thin lines like an eyeliner. The color stays beautiful all day long and doesn't fade. It blends easily too. This is a great product in many ways. My only ...read morecomplaint is that it can transfer from your lids to above your crease if you're not careful about application.

amazing!

I bought this color in 007 Gossip Green! it works so good! it literally stays on all day! Its waterproof so that's probably why. It wasn't so annoyingly waterproof to where i couldn't get it off when washing my face with makeup remover either. its absolutely perfect! and it matches my eye color perfectly which i like. lol i feel like it makes the color of my eyes stand out more! i love this product!!!
