Having dark brown hair, I am lucky enough to have evaded the need for eyelash tinting in my life. My lashes are as dark as the rest of the hair on my head and face, so when I use mascara it’s mostly for volume reasons. I benefit from the deep black color, obviously, but I’m looking for thickness and fullness.

Now there’s a drugstore mascara that not only offers volume but also a gradual lash tint! The newly released Rimmel Volume Colourist Mascara sounds like a dream come true for fair-haired makeup lovers who love double duty beauty.

Rimmel Volume Colorist Lash Tinting Mascara

Bear in mind that this isn’t a review – I haven’t tried this stuff. Luckily, we are in (yes, in) the internet, and hundreds of other blabbermouths like me have tried Volume Colourist Mascara. Scroll to the end of this post to see a bunch of great YouTube reviews of this mascara so you can see it in action!

The Volume Colourist Mascara claim is that it will not only give you a fabulous mascara experience, and in addition, it will tint your lashes gradually to a noticeable level over a period of two weeks. From what I’ve read and seen, there are mixed reviews. Some say that there’s no noticeable difference at all while others are delighted with their now-visible lashes.

Some reviewers have said that it smudges, btu also that it does an amazing job of separating lashes while still adding a lot of volume. A few people even suggested using it as a second layer over other mascaras to help even out clumps and add drama. The tint seems minimal unless you are very fair, but most reviews I’ve seen end positively – some even stating that it’s their new favorite mascara.

Where to Buy Rimmel Volume Colourist Mascara

Rimmel is a mainstay drugstore brand, but can be hard to find in most drugstores due to the fact that it’s a British brand. Even when I’ve found stores with Rimmel products, they rarely have this specific Colorist line. Luckily, I found them at some other common places!

  • Target, $7.99 (+$4 shipping)
  • Ulta, $8.99 (+$5.95 shipping)
  • Walmart, $7.88 (+$5.97 shipping)
