~Regretful Buys~



Woe is me. Luckily, most of this stuff was cheap but they just didn't work for me. =(

  1. Bourjois Lovely Rouge lipstick in Sable Unique ($14): A great looking nude lipstick on a Sephora catalogue cover but too bad this sucker burned my lips and it's not even a plumping lipstick. It's some weird ingredient that doesn't agree with me.
  2. NYX Mega Shine Lipgloss in Sweetheart ($3.99): This pink is way too icy
  3. MAC Studio Fix Foundation Plus Powder in NC35 ($26): Too chalky, poor coverage and lasting ability for my oily skin
  4. NYX Round lipstick in Uranus ($0.99): Dark brown ugliness
  5. NYX Round lipstick in Stone ($0.99): More dark brown ugliness
  6. Bare Minerals Foundation ($25): I found out my skin doesn't like Bismuth Oxychloride. The shiny finish isn't flattering on me either.
  7. Everyday Minerals "Lipgloss" in Pink Lemonade ($4): It's a lip balm!! Texture is pasty and unpigmented
  8. Bare Escentual Flawless Face Brush (~$22): It's the Itchy & Scratch show!
  9. Rimmel Eyeshadow Quad in Smokey Purple: Chalky with very low pigmentation
  10. e.l.f. Waterproof Liquid Liner in Black ($1): Smells funny and when it dries it feels like there's a piece of Scotch tape stuck to my eye
  11. e.l.f. Mascara ($1): Horrible brush and formula. [You know what you can use old mascara for? If you have a couple or a few grey hairs and don't want to pluck them out, don't throw away your mascara but use it to hide those greys!]
  12. e.l.f. Studio Eyebrow Treat & Tame in Medium ($3): Medium is way too light and too peach-colored for my black brows but the strength of the hold is pretty good. It's a strange color though
  13. NYX Jumbo Eyeshadow Pencil in Cottage Cheese (~$4): I know, I know. It may be your Holy Grail but this creases on me within a couple hours just because it's too oily and waxy. I use it only for arm swatches! =P
  14. Cover Girl Brow & Eye Makers in Midnight Black (~$3): Hard, unpigmented (it's a soft black/gray)
  15. NYC Mod Quad in Far Out Fawns ($1.98): Low pigmentation and the creme liner is so hard
  16. Mac Factor trio eyeshadow in Premiere Pink ($?): The worst e/s I've ever tried!!! It's hard, dry, chalky and unpigmented. Don't ever get these!
  17. Maybelline Dream Mousse Shadows ($1.79?): Chunky, hard to blend & too frosty. [I'd include a link to my video review but it has been silenced by BS copyright infringement]
  18. Amuse eyeshadow in Baby Purple ($2): I got this from Cherry Culture and it's low pigmented and the case was all scratched up when I got it. What's up with that?

The EDM pink lemonade I have was actually pigmented. lol. Same with my Siesta lipgloss. I guess it depends on which batch you got, because I got one in English Muffin that was hard and waxy.

shexilicious, really? I heard the newer formulations are better but I have their older one. I haven't been able to get myself to take a chance on another one of their "lipglosses" though.

The max factor eye shadow trios are the worst eye shadows out there and #1 on my "I regret I bought this" list and I gave them a fair chance and bought like 4 different ones. Makes me think twice about buying anything else max factor.
