Today's blog post is about terrible products. I love reading and watching videos like this because it is helpful if I want to buy that product. This has been done by many other people before on youtube and on blogspot so I thought I would follow in the trend!
1.Lipcote- I only bought this on Sunday, but I know for a fact I will not be using it again. Basically, what it is, is a top coat for your lipstick, which apparently is meant to smell like vanilla. Instead of it smelling like vanilla, it smells of chemicals. I don't know about you, but I do not like the idea of putting something so high in chemicals on my lips. And just when you think it can't get any worse, it does. The taste is absolutely revolting. It tastes literally like I am putting nail varnish remover on my lips. I must admit, it does what it says it does, until you decide you need another coat of lipstick. When you want to put another coat on, the lipcote becomes all bitty under your second coat of lipstick, leaving a horrible gritty feel on your lips.
2.Miners Vanilla 'Tin o Tint'- Now this product isn't terrible. Firstly, it is meant to be a tint and it literally is the colour of concealer, so when you wear it, it looks like you have foundation lips. There is nothing wrong with the formula or anything, for me, I just cant stand the smell. I bought this thinking that it would be just a hint of vanilla, but no. The smell is very overpowering and is way to sweet for my liking. I also have the cherry and watermelon versions, and I absolutely love them. I think its my fault for buying a scent it don't like :s
3.Sleek Dip it Eyeliner- This eyeliner is absolutely terrible!!!!! I decided on this eyeliner when I bought it because I thought because its Sleek, it will be good quality and worth the money. I used it for a few weeks, then one day, it clicked that it was making my eyelids sting like mad! I immediately stopped using it as I knew it couldn't be good for my eyes. My advice is, if you have sensitive eyelids, don't waste your money on this
4.Maybelline Eyestudio Lasting Drama Gel liner- Again, a terrible eyeliner! It feels like you are dragging a crayon across your eyelid when you apply it. I've tried mixing the top of the eyeliner up a little bit, which worked for a short while, but it started to go thick and crayon-like again. It also acts like a pencil liner because it smudges during the day.
5.Bourjois eyeshadow in 03- The first thing that hit me about this eyeshadow was the colour. It seems so bright and so in your face to wear normally. However I swatched this when I bought it on my finger and I discovered the lack of pigment in it. Basically, if you swipe your finger across it a few times, the least amount of colour comes from it. It would be OK as a lighter blue, but if you're looking for an electric blue eyeshadow, this is not the one to go to.
6.Maybelline Expertwear Blush in Rosewood- I bought this in a rush really. I was shopping with my mam and she couldn't be bothered to traipse around boots looking for a blusher, so I quickly tested this on my hand and it seemed fine. I thought it had loads of pigment until the first time I used it, the next day. When I swirled the brush around in the product, nothing was coming onto the brush! I had to switch brushes and literally pack it on to my cheeks to get the slightest bit of colour out of it.
So yeah, they're my products I regret buying. I hope this was somewhat helpful :) My next post will be up within a few days and it will be a current fashion fave :)
