Rimmel Eye Shadow Bargains

I intended on posting this a few weeks ago when I came across these but I forgot and then rummaging through my make up bag I came across them again so I thought I would share my bargain with you – because everyone loves a bargain don’t they!

A few weeks ago me and my friend had a girly day in town and went into the new poundland  that has just opened that day for a mooch. Now some people may turn their nose up and going into a shop where everything is a pound but really what is the point in paying more for something if you can get in there for a pound! And its not like some of the “pound” shops you go in where they just have tat. They genuinely have brands and stuff too which I love.

So we went in for a mooch and was having a look at the makeup/beauty section. One of the other local pound shops had started to do Rimmel stuff – lipstick etc but I had never seen anything I liked or would use. However in the new pound land I came across these beauties! AND they were 3 colours for a pound! I got myself one and mum one in colours I knew she would use (she likes browns for work) but she gave me the yellow from her set.

 

Now the first thing I thought when I saw  these was that you were getting 2 colours in one – the colour on the outside and the colour of the crown but as you can see where I have used the bottom 2 colours this is not the case – the crown colours are in fact just a thin layer of shadow over the rest of other colour. Still even so – lush colours.

Here’s a swatch.

I am actually surprised at how nice the yellow one is. I thought it would be very yellow but its more goldy which is good. :)

All in all a total bargain I think :D

Have you had any beauty bargains???
