Beauty Products Not Worth Your $$



Ugh.. Products I regret buying! Here is a heads up on products that I would NOT repurchase....

NYX Wicked Dreams Palette
First and for most, the NYX Wicked Dreams Palette. I had high hopes for this palette. It comes with 24 absolutely gorgeous colors! The problem is that NYX eye shadows are very hit and miss. These colors had barely any pigmentation and looked extremely muddy on the eyelids. I was just completely disappointed with the quality of the shadows. I tried this with a brush and fingers and nothing complimented the muddy colors. I absolutely love NYX, but this particular palette just didn't cut it.



Make Up For Ever's Aqua Eyes White Liner
Given the steep price of this eye liner, I expected something that had amazing pigmentation, gliding on, and lived up to the Make Up For Ever expectation. I love the Make Up For Ever Aqua Line, but for some reason the white liner is just awful. It is the furthest thing from creamy and hurts when I apply it to my waterline. Also, I find that while I am trying to build up the pigment on my waterline it gets clumpy? (For lack of a better word) It takes a while to really get a nice look with this pencil and there are many others that are easy AND affordable. 

Anastasia's Clear Brow Gel
Okay, don't get me wrong... this is a great brow gel. It is a little runny, but nothing I can't handle. Another plus is that it doesn't make your eyebrows hard as rock. The only problem is that there are so many other affordable alternatives that there is really no reason to splurge on this particular gel. I love my Anastasia brow powder and I will stay loyal to that; however, Maybelline's clear mascara works just as well as this. 

So those are the only three products that I have for you today, but through trial and error, I will continue to warn you of the products that are not worth the bucks! I hope that you guys liked this blog post and if you have any suggestions on how to make these products work please comment below!

Til Next Time!
