I would like to start by saying that I am a mascara junkie. I like to try a different one every time I've run out and need a new one. I have been using Rimmels Lash Accelerator for a few months now, and while I enjoy the length it gives to my lashes, it is volume that my lashes need. When I saw that Rimmel had a new version for volume, I ran to the store to pick it up.
I must say, I'm not a massive fan of the new packaging
Above: Lash Accelerator Volume
Below: Original Lash Accelerator(both in extreme black)
First thing first, it does not give any volume whatsoever. The brush was extremely hard to work with, as I couldn't get a good enough grip for it to coat the lashes properly, leading to black blobs all over my brow bone. The lashes all stuck together in a goopy mess, and took forever to dry. Also, applying a second coat is nearly impossible as the brush will not glide through the lashes.

Even if you are someone who enjoys the spider lash look,
which I am, this just doesn't look nice. No one wants to look like they
only have about 5 lashes. Big disappointment Rimmel.
Verdict- don't waste your money. Keep your ten dollars and buy something that does what it's supposed to.
