Don't waste your money on...

[Cookie]

I like Take the Day off... but I never tried using just baby oil. My going out signature look is lots of black eyeliner and mascara, and not much other makeup... I need serious removal power. Anyway, I think it's designed to be used before your usual face cleanser.

I don't like
Perscriptives Virtual Skin - made me break out badly
BenFit WonderBod - separates and smells SICK
Jergens Shave Minimizer - who wants to wait four weeks for it to start to work? You have to buy a new bottle by then... I predict that this product will dissapear from the market. I only have to shave 1/week anyway
Stila Mascara - undoes my curl


So, what do you do with a product that maybe you spent some money on but don't want anymore. Do you just throw it away?

Hee! In my case, it sits under my sink for about 6 years. That's about how long it takes me to realize that I will NEVER EVER EVER have any use for it ever again

A shopoholic product junkie pack-rat makes for a verrrrrry cluttered bathroom

Thanks, Alli! I'm using moisturizer before I apply the Secret Camouflage and you're right, I do think it helps.

I've changed my mind. I'm really loving my Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage now. It just took awhile to learn to how to do it properly and when I do, I really do have a flawless face!

-I've never been particularly impressed with MAC shadows
-Benefit Lightning shimmer lotion--yucky smell
-Pretty much any Covergirl product :x

It's not THAT hard, LolitaLuxe, but it does take practice. Definitely get the Secret Camouflage brush -- I think that makes a big difference because of its shape. You can make it very pointy or broader as you wish. I also think it looks more finished with the loose powder but that depends on how much coverage you need. I have rosacea so I need a lot!

What NOT to buy!
-Nivea shimmering body lotion...just yuk

-Venus razor...another one for Mach 3!!

-L'Oreal Sublime Bronze tanning range...orange and smelly and greasy

Any product that promises to plump up your lips. Purposly causing an allergic reaction and or irritation? Um hello! Ughrrr i tried one the other day, NOTHING!

The nice thing about having two colors is being able to make the color match the exact place you need coverage. Just practice until you make it perfect!

- Loreal Pure Zone Cleanser ~ this was not gentle enough for my skin,
my skin was red after i used it!
- Clinique Waterproof Mascara ~ when i put it on there were only a few
clumps but then when i would come out
of the pool my eyelashes were all clum-
ped up and it was hard to get off and
to get my eyelashes apart so they would
look normal..
- Maybelline Cool Effects Eye Liner ~ made my eyes hurt & didn't glide
on as smooth as it said.

- Dr. Hauschka cleansing cream; it worked really well actually but the SMELL turned me right off! ugh.
- Max Factor Lashfinity mascara; made my lashes brittle and they stuck together, it was also a chore to get it off!
- Tommy Hilfiger lipgloss; looks nice and shiny but the glitter particles stick on your lips and feel gritty like sand.

dr hauschka cleansing cream i sgreat a s you said. the smells are strong but thats only because they are "real" products!! i lov'em

 

[tealady]

Why should the smell make it a "real" product, leyla? Just trying to understand... ??
