So I figured that maybe it'd be good to get a regular feature going whereby different makeups are reviewed? That is to say, instead of just writing about generic types of makeups and styles, we can look more in depth at the products themselves :) Just a suggestion. If it's not popular, we can scrap this :)
Right then...

Review No. 1:
Product: Rimmel London Colour Mousse 8hr Eye Shadow
Colour: 013, Galaxy (i.e., deep metallicy purple)
Price: £4.99 from a Boots store.
Consistency: A really smooth creamy texture - at first I didn't think it would last the 8 hours!
Application: You really don't need too much at all - a little goes a long way. Best to apply with a clean finger in a dabbing motion. Initially comes out quite dark. It's important to keep your eyes closed when applying, until it has ''dried'', or else you risk creasing. I added 3 layers to really build up an intense colour. When finished, it looks really beautiful, and it has a lovely effect when the light catches it. Wearing it to work, it lasted maybe 6 - 7 hours before creasing and losing some of its colour - but I do work in a hot kitchen/restaurant! The next time I wore it, I put primer on underneath, and this time, it lasted quite literally ALL day! Maybe around 10 hours :)
Overall:
Positive: Does what it says on the box - lasts a very long time. Really nice texture. Beautiful colour.
Negative: Need a couple of layers to ensure an intense colour. A little expensive - but seeing as you don't need much to apply it, I think this product will last a long time, so in all, it IS good value.
