Rimmel London claims: Choose the ScandalEyes Precision Micro Eye Liner for a playful, graphic yet feminine look.Featuring an ultra-thin felt tip, giving you ultimate control and a super-fine line that artistically defines your eyes with no unsightly wobbles. A state- of-the-art formula with a super-high concentration of intense pigments for an ultra-black, tattoo-like line which dries in seconds and resists just about anything, water, heat, sweat, flaking, smudging, for 24 hours.

How to apply: Apply to the bottom of your lid, above and below your eye lashes.

Rimmel Eyeliner Black Noir is one of the best eyeliners I have ever used. It is dark black in colour with a sharp tip which is super small so you can draw precise lines. You can have a lot more control when creating your eye flick/wing. Pigmentation is superb as it is opaque in one stroke which is quite impressive. The colour is a really rich black after the first swipe and has not dried out after many uses. The finish is matte has this subtle sheen which looks really nice.

The staying power is good too as its formulated to be waterproof. It is really simple to remove; I use a makeup wipe and it comes out very nicely. I am so glad I picked up this eyeliner because it is easy to use and does not smudge or tug. The fragrance is okay for me. The fine tip is very flexible to do any eye makeup design. I didn’t experience any irritation or allergy.  It stayed all day on my eyelid without the need to re –touch. This is a pen so its like drawing sketches on your eyes.

Its quite sturdy and travel friendly. The tip does not dry at all. It stays on for longer on oily lids as well. The formula is not as watery as other liquid liners so it dries fairly quickly in comparison. As you can see on my hand swatches, it is very pigmented. A great tool to use if you have a steady hand; just like drawing with crayon back in primary school!

It comes packaged as a pen in a sleek glossy lightweight black case. Looks classy!  The brand name is embossed on the lower part of the body and the lid has got a label which describes the shade name. The precise sharp tip is very easy to work with and it fits well in the hand.
