Rimmel Glam'Eyes HD Eyeshadow

I have the version of this quad with green in the cross of the flag. I like the quad but it could be designed better the performance of the colour is pretty good and it gave a nice look but you need to take care when trying to get shadow brushes into the small triangle crevices I got mine on sale at postie for less then $3 so I would re purchase at that price for sure but at normal retail - no. They blend okay. Its easy to disperse the wrong colour out of the little triangle sections though and into the other section. Not a bad product though. I have not used this wet yet.

I received this product in the March beauty box. My colour was brixton brown, which suits me very well as I always wear brown eye shadow, and the shades are gorgeous. I was keen to try it as Rimmel products have been around for many years and I used them extensively when I was young.

This palette is a very compact size, and I found it easy to use and straight forward to apply. There was some creasing, but let's be honest - my dry and aging skin are no help and I haven't used a primer near my eyes when using the product for fear it would add a little greasiness which completely doesn't work for older skin. Trying to use it wet was disastrous - wet doesn't work well on mature/ sagging eye lids.

It claims to last up to 10 hours -well I didn't try to make it last that long but it lasted ok for the time I was wearing it, so for me that's all I need.

Overall I think this is a good product and at $16.95 it is a good price for the quality of product, but for my age I don't think it would be my first choice of eye shadows.

I've never been a big user of Rimmel products and truth be told, I don't see that changing anytime soon.

I received this in the March BRBB and have so far been impressed with colours but not a fan of the packaging at all. I'm finding the colour payoff to last the whole day at work but it's hard to use a pallette of this size. The biggest problem I find is that the divider between the colours is so small it's easy to dip into the colour next to the colour you actually want to use.

I have 2 clear favourites in this colour range, 1st being the lightest shade, it's just and amazing colour that sets off my brown eyes and the 2nd is the red. I was scared to use it initially due to the redness of it, but once you apply it, it comes off as a beautiful reddish brown colour that again suits my eyes perfectly.

The pigmentation and blendability are spot on but I just can't see past how hard it is to ensure you're not mixing the colours up as you use them. I also can't see this lasting long at all as the shadows are so small. All in all, I wouldn't purchase again but am very glad to have been able to try a brand, and colours, I wouldn't normally use.

I received this in the March BRBB and I was so excited because I received the Brixton brown palette which fits me perfect I love the brown-er coloured eye shadows.

This cute wee palette has 5 colours there is a deep red colour in the centre and a peachy tan that are both quite shimmery but the deep red brown, medium brown and lighter brown are quite matte and have no pigmentation. The texture is quite chalky but it applies nicely and it's easy to blend I do however use my own brush as I hate the silly little applicators that come with the palette. I still think this is a nice basic palette, It's staying power is average if I apply first thing in the morning I have to touch up by lunchtime even if I'm not doing a lot. I like it but don't love it.

I brought a couple of these because i thought the packaging was cute and something different nothing like any other small pallets i own. I loved the colours and the pigmentation is great, there so pretty and very easy to blend. The only down side of these are, you cant get your brush into the smaller parts, you end up picking up the colour beside it is-well which is a shame. Wouldnt buy again.

These were more pigmented than I expected, which is nice, and come in cute packaging. The formula for these, though, I find to be quite clumpy and will crease after a little while. How the shadows are put in the packaging needs a re-think, too, as it's quite difficult to get some of the product out that is in the tiny little parts of the design.

I liked the funky looking packaging and the idea to help you achieve the smoky coloured look. Instead I found how impractical the packaging was and that it made it difficult to use. The colours themselves are pretty and vibrant, but I thought a mix of glittery and matte might have done better. A bit of a let down

I am a sucker for all things Rimmel and couldnt wait to get my hands on these eye shadows. The colours themselves were great and easy to blend. But the packaging ruins it. It's difficult to get your make up brushes in the smaller parts which means there will prob be a lot of wasted product.

I bought the 'Sapphire Green' quad last year, before Rimmel switched to the current (impractical) packaging, so that is probably why I don't dislike this product so much as many other do.

The package recommends you use all four shades for a smokey eye style, but I find that the individual shades get lost and don't look so great on the lid when combined.

The pigmentation is nice and there's no fallout, but overall I'd avoid repurchasing.

I got a purple based quad and although the colours where pretty the quality was a disappointment. They didn't stay on very long nor did they show up very well on the lid even with a good primer!
