Rimmel Colour Mousse 8 Hour Eyeshadow Review - 013 Galaxy

Rimmel Colour Mousse Eyeshadow Galaxy
Rimmel's Colour Mousse in Galaxy is a shimmery lilac purple shade.  It's highly pigmented and gives an almost metallic effect once applied.  I actually picked this eyeshadow up in Poundland about a month ago and as far as I'm aware it's been discontinued which is why it was available so cheap.  Rimmel claim that this eyeshadow lasts up to 8 Hours and I can happily say that it lasts a full day on top of Rimmels Eyeshadow Primer without fading, creasing or smudging.

I was expecting it's consistency to be similar to that of Maybelline's Dream Matte Mousse or Rimmel's Mousse Foundation, but to my disappointment it was really runny and wet.  I found that it dried really quickly but as it was so runny it was really difficult to blend and create an even finish.  The end result was therefore slightly blotchy.  The packaging is really heavy and there seems to be way too much glass in comparison to the amount of product it actually contains.  I think they were trying to go for a MAC Paintpot type of packaging but Rimmel failed and instead the packaging looks cheap and is too bulky.

 You can get this at larger Poundland stores for £1.

Product score: 2/5
I was pretty disappointed with this product and can see why it's been discontinued.  The only thing I did like about this product was how pigmented it is and how shimmery and metallic the shade is.
