This week we are going to compare two mascaras from the Rimmel range. Firstly – let me say, being a bit of a mascara snob I have been a recent convert to Rimmel mascara. The Day 2 Night caused such a stir when it was recommended by Mairead Farrell on Today FM, I said I would give my luxury brand mascara a rest and see what the fuss was about.

| Rimmel Day 2 Night "Volume" Brush |
The Day 2 Night mascara works in two ways. For day time it adds volume and definition and for night time adding length. The brush can come out of the tube in two different ways dictating if you are using the bush for “volume” or for “length”. I love this mascara, the colour is dramatic black, and the mascara is very fluid. The only disadvantage is that the “length” section is only noticeable after a few coats, and would have to be reapplied three or four times. The packaging is very similar to MAC’s Haute & Naughty – but at half the price of €9.95 its a bargain.

| Rimmel Day 2 Night "Length" Brush |
The Scandal Eyes Volume Flash mascara is the newest addition to the Rimmel range. The packaging is very similar to the Cover Girl Lash Blast mascara. Chunky and orange this will look great in any cosmetic bag. The brush is very chunky and works by coating every lash with mascara. It is much thicker then the Day to Night brush – but if its thickened lashes rather than long lashes you are looking for – than this is the mascara for you. It is also on promotion at the moment at the special offer price of €6.05.
The only disadvantage is that the brush may be slightly too thick. It is quite intimidating when you first take it out of the tube and it may not reach the smaller lashes especially on the bottom. The Day 2 Night is probably more suitable for this.
