Rimmel Extreme Definition Mascara
What They Say: "Extreme Definition Lash Separating Comb Mascara - To get lashes as individual as you are. The unique fine-toothed comb applicator glides effortlessly through lashes capturing each and every one, for ultimate lash separation and definition, with no clumping or clogging at all."
Jen's Experience: My friends all know what a hard time I have with mascara, so when this product was recommended to me by one of my best friends, I had to give it a try. I'm so glad I did! When I first took it out of the package and opened it up, I thought it was defective; I've never seen an applicator wand like this one. I tried it out as soon as I got to the car and was impressed right out the gate. It goes on lashes evenly and is so thin that it doesn't cause any clumping at all. Although there is a comb on the end, I find that it works as well just to paint the lashes without trying to work my lashes into the tiny comb. The big test was whether or not it would last all day without smudging. I wouldn't say that it was smudge-free, but it produced the best results of any product I have used so far. In fact, of all the mascaras I've tested to date, this is the best of the bunch.
