Products I regret buying

 

   We girls always want to try new things but sometimes we realize that we made the wrong choice by buying some products. This is what happened to me with this cosmetics. I do not say that they are not good but for me they did not do the job right and I will explain you why.

 

I run out of my eyeliner which was from Flormar ( this brand is not in UK) so I went to Boots to buy a new one. I've heard good things about Collection so I decided to buy the waterproof Fast Stroke eyeliner in black version. I liked the brush because it is not so thin, the finish is not very shiny but matte either and the price was a bargain something around 3 pounds.

The problem is that it was really hard to apply it because the brush was full of ink and made my lashes to stuck and it was horrible. Anyway this was not the only problem! On my way to university the wind was very powerful that made my eyes to tear. Surprise...my eyeliner was all over my eyes zone...so you said it is waterproof? Well I do not think so man!

 

I have to admit that I am a huge fan of KIKO but this product was a disappoinment for me! It curled my lashes that it is true but it lasted only for 2-3 hours and then it started smudging and under my eyes there were small spots of mascara and made my eyes looked so tired! Conclusion: I am never gonna buy this product again!

 

Next on my black list is the Concealer true match from L'oreal which was not such a good match for my skin. It did not mixed so well with the foundation that i have from the same range and it looked very unnatural on my skin. Also it did not cover my spots and after 2-3hours it settled in the fine lines of the skin which is bleaaahh! I am sorry for the fans of this product but I really do not like it!

The last product on my list is this powder from Maybelline Stay matte. In the picture I applied it on the concealer. It is not too bad but I like to use foundation with a medium to high coverage and this powder is too powdery on my skin. I prefer a light one instead so this is why it is on my black list! It is good if you use it with a light foundation! The one that I have is in shade 005 silky beige and it is about 5 pounds!

Well these are the products that I regret spending my money on! Which ones are yours?

Beauty Haul January!

 

I love the title of these kind of post because it means that I bought new beauty stuff and the feeling of sharing with you is amazing! I hope that you will enjoy it and maybe you will find it useful!

First of all I bought this amazing set from French Conection which smells incredible...I can not find the perfect words to describe it so please go in any Boots store that is close to you and try it! I promise that you will love it! This set contains a shower gel, body cream, body scrub and a loofah which is not in the picture because I already used it but I can assure you that it is very nice! It is a butter color and has a black cord where is written the name of the brand! Oh my good I am so in love with this set and I know that there is also a perfume which smells exactly like these products but I can not figure what which one maybe you will help me! Also the packaging is so elegant with different shades of nude and the cover has some gold lines so it could also be a perfect present for someone you love!

 

As I already told you in an old post I love the products from Aussie so because the old treatment that I had is empty now, I bought the new edition from the same brand, the winter remedy! This one also smells incredibly well and it is the best for my hair! So I am sorry that I might become boring about hair conditioner or treatment but I just think I found the perfect one and I do not want to try anything else! Regarding to different oil treatments for hair or serums I decide to move from Dove ( I talked about it in a previous post) to this amazing one from Moroccanoil because I've heard only good things about it! I already used it for 5-6 times and I can tell that I love it! I bought it from Amazon at the price of 10 pounds and I chose the one for light hair! It smells like the perfume Poeme from Lancome which I like, but the most important think is that even if it is very oily, it leaves my hair shiny, soft and strong without making it look dirty or greasy! Conclusion: I love the products that I use for my hair right now! 

 

As you already know I have in any bag a mini sized hand cream so this is one of them! I like the Neutrogena brand especially in this period because their creams are in general very rich and it really moisturizes my skin and makes it very soft and silky! So I think that this one I can call a must have for this cold time!

When it comes to cleaning my skin , my goal is to buy a Clarisonic skin cleansing system but it is too expensive so for the moment I am using this product from Garnier. I like it because it has that abrasive brush which deeply cleans my skin and also fights against black spots! It has a strong menthol smells and after I use it my face looks very clean but I think that it is better for the persons with oily skin like me rather than dry skin! So yep big like for this product!

 

Well I was looking for something that smells like the French Conection so I found this perfume from Katy Perry, Queen Killer! It is not the same smell... this one has a sweet subtone but I like it so I bought it! Also the bottle is very cute and the color is interesting with this gradient red! It was only 15 pounds at 30 ml and the smell persists for 8 hours I think!
