5 Bad Beauty Purchases
I’m bored and I just cleaned out my makeup stash a bit of bad products. I do realize that I could have returned some of these and get a replacement, but I was too lazy at the time. A few of them I couldn’t return since I bought them in a store and they don’t accept refunds or replacements once they have been opened.
- Depend Eyebrow Pen – Not sure if I got a “Friday car” but this was a disaster. It was dry and even though I followed the instructions, I didn’t get it to work.
- E.l.f. Waterproof Eyeliner Pen – Dry as the desert!
- Isadora Flashy Curl Mascara – Took a few uses, then it became like a gum, then it became dry.
- Max Factor Masterpiece Glide and Define – First of all, the product I got was grey, the marking for black was very similar. The consistency was watery. Glide – yes, define – no.
- E.l.f. Blushing Bronzing and Blending Brush – Do not buy this one! A total disappointment! It’s not as nice and smooth as it looks on the product image! The bristles are stiff and scratchy. I have however found another use for it – I clean my keyboard with it! It’s excellent for that purpose!
Some of these probably worked wonders on others, but I would absolutely advise that you don’t buy the E.l.f. Blushing Bronzing and Blending Brush, it totally sucked. Only buy it if you want to clean your keyboard with it! :P
Anyone else that have experienced/discovered bad/disappointing beauty products lately?
I had the EXACT same problem with MY Max Factor Masterpiece Glide and Define! It was watery and transparent, I couldn’t draw with it at all!
I bought Dream Cream Foundation from Maybelline and it’s really good. I love the smell, how it covers and just EVERYTHING about it. The problem was that I bought it too light for my skin tone, so I look like an incomplete geisha with it.
I hate it when I buy a beauty product with high hopes, and it turns out to be utterly crap. Sorry you had to go through that too :(
But lol @ the comment about using the brush to clean your keyboard. I might do that with one of my old makeup brushes now, thanks for the tip!
I hate it when you get bad quality brushes!! They are so annoying but good idea with the keyboard!!
