Seriously, what the fuck kind of face am I making here? Crazy. But it’s the only shot I got, so….yeah. Also, “wtf” because I am sooooo not impressed with the color payoff from the Rimmel shadows. Seriously – that’s supposed to be a green?! It swipes on like the palest yellow imaginable, barely noticeable. I think I have one or two more of these quads, but I don’t even know if I want to try them now. Boo. (I guess I could use them as highlights, or for really pale shades, as long as I knew stuff ahead of time like, “this green-looking bugger is actually really pale yellow.”) I wore this to work, and then when we went out in the evening, did a “proper” look that I was much happier with.

Boo on Rimmel! Boo! You’d think if Wet n Wild improved their formula then Rimmel would too! I still like this look it’s very soft and glowy. Lurvly!
Yeah, it’s not terrible, it’s just…disappointing. And, yeah, wtf, I totally expect Rimmel to at least match WnW. I don’t know. I like their Sexy Curves mascara, and I like Vintage Pink – maybe their non-quad shadows aren’t terrible? Or maybe it’s just this one quad in particular? Or maybe it needs a black base? Who knows.
