Since 2020, Rumi Cosmetiques has been on a mission to produce the highest quality make-up with the intention of helping all women, but especially older women, be their very best. This meant creating a make-up range which is made for sensitive skin, vegan and cruelty free. Starting with their eye make-up, Rumi have products for all ages and all of them are confidence building to make you feel more beautiful. We were sent the Ultimate Lash Care Kit and the BrowCare+ Kit for to see how they stand up to being Christmas gifts!

The Ultimate Lash Care Kit comprises of 3 products; mascara (VolumeCare+), eye liner (LushLine+) and serum (LashCare+).  If you look on the website (below) you can choose which colours suit you best and the serum size so you can mix and match as you wish. There’s also a cool option to be able to have the products on a 3-month subscription so that you don’t ever run out! We had the black eye liner and black mascara to try, which I would say are the safest and most standard colours but as time goes on and if you order more, you could get a mix of colours for different looks.

VolumeCare+ Mascara is designed to thicken eye lashes which naturally thin with age. The mascara dramatically volumizes eye lashes with deep colour and also separates each lash, leaving it waterproof too (great if you’re going on holiday!) but you will need to have proper eye make-up remover to remove it at the end of the day. The easy-to-apply LashLine+ is a pencil like eye liner which makes it easier to apply than a liner brush and easily glides onto the eye lid. In combination with the VolumeCare+ Mascara, it accentuates the eye, probably because it draws out the corner of your eye and works in tandem with the mascara to elevate the lashes. So far so good!

The LashCare+ serum is a new one on me. I don’t normally use serum on my eye lashes but seeing as I uses extra serum on my skin and a similar serum on my hair nowadays it makes sense to use one on my eye lashes.  It’s applied once a day, so I’ve been putting it on before bed. It’s only been a few weeks so I can’t see the full effect but I’m hoping it works even better over time as it does with helping the mascara bond to my eye lashes.  Make-up for older women has really come along!

Lastly, we were also sent the lovely BrowCare+ Serum. Again, a brow serum is not something that I have used before but with my eye brows becoming more erratic (yes, I used that word!) it makes sense to try and tame them with something that makes them fuller but also more controllable.  The BrowCare+ Serum needs just one application a day (makes sense for it to be at night at the same time as the eyelashes) and nourishes the brow hairs so that they grow thicker and stronger, and tamer too!  This typically takes a month or so to start showing so it’s another one of the long road ahead and perhaps a very good reason to buy more than one BrowCare+ Serum at a time.

Over time, my eye lashes and brows should start to thicken, back to (nearly) what they were in my youth!
