Rimmel Lash Accelerator Endless Mascara


The newest addition to my mascara collection is the muchly raved about Rimmel Lash Accelerator Endless mascara, which I picked up last week. I was in desperate need for a new mascara so I thought I'd try this one as it sounded fantastic!



This mascara claims to extend lashes up to 99%, whilst giving no clumps. After trying this out for the past week I feel I'm ready to give an accurate review!

The best bits:
I love the brush on this mascara. It's a plastic brush, and usually I find plastic brushes a bit irritating for my eyes, but this one was completely fine. The brush had just the right amount of bristles on it, making it perfect to comb though the lashes and keep them separated. I found it made my lashes pop, giving them extra volume, and length. This also work amazing on the bottom lashes, and I also found this mascara left my lashes with no clumps at all! I also find with some mascaras I get panda eyes, but no panda eyes with this mascara!



The bad bits:
Absolutely no faults at all! I really can't find anything wrong with this mascara at all. It ticks all the boxes!

At £7.99 this mascara is fairly priced, but if you're lucky like I was, Boots currently have it on offer for £5.99. This mascara gives me everything I need and want, so it will be a repurchase of mine!

Benefit They're Real Vs Loreal False Lash Flutter...Battle Of The Mascara's!


Hello all!

I hope everyone is having a brilliant Easter Sunday, chocolates galore!
But today I am going to compare two mascara's for you! Both give a similar application, yet the price difference between the two is quite big!


Firstly I have the ever so hyped about Benefit They're Real Mascara, which retails at around £18.50. It's opponent is the Loreal Paris False Lash Flutter Mascara, which retails at a much cheaper price of around £10.99!
I love both of these mascara's, but I couldn't help noticing that they give such a similar effect!
The Loreal mascara is meant to give a butterfly effect - making your lashes winged out and lifted up. The Benefit mascara is meant to make your lashes have effect of false lashes.


As you can see the brushes are different, yet the are both a plastic wand. The one on the left is the Loreal wand. It is a winged effect, which is what is meant to give the Butterfly effect to your lashes. It has smaller nibs of the opposite side, which is perfect for your bottom lashes!
To the right is the Benefit Mascara, which is fully covered in nibs and also has a rounded tip with extra nibs which is brilliant for doing those hard to get small lashes in the corners of the eye!

I love both these mascara's, they both give a brilliant effect to my lashes.
But I'd have to say my winner would be the Loreal mascara! Not only is it almost £8 cheaper than the Benefit one, but it gives an amazing effect to my lashes. I find it wings out my lashes, yet it keeps them separated and not clumpy. The wand applies just the right amount of mascara to my lashes and gives such a similar effect as the Benefit mascara does. 
I do have to give the Benefit mascara it's due, because it is also a brilliant mascara that does make my lashes look amazing. But because it's so expensive, I would rather buy the loreal mascara in the future!

Have you tried these Mascara's??
If so, what do you think?
