Chanel Inimitable Intense: this sequel is better than the original

I find sequels often disappoint don't you? And some of them can be complete stinkers - I'm thinking Sex and the City 2 here.

Chanel Inimitable took a place in the lexicon of iconic beauty products - quickly becoming one of the best loved mascaras around. Why? Because it was quite simply brilliant.

Inimitable took the mascara world by storm and became the new bar by which all others were measured. So how one earth could Inimitable Intense, €28, outperform the orginal Inimitable?

Well I don't know how they managed it, but they did. This sequel is fab. Rich, dark and well... intense, it somehow manages to curl lashes upwards in the most flattering and va va voom way, opening up the eye while dramatising the lashes.  The brush is great, simple and sleek and dispenses an even amount of mascara without the dreaded clumping.

Love it. Get it when it launches on June 11th, you'll love it too.
