Hi everyone! Welcome back to my blog
Some of you may recognise the title of this post, as it is actually a Youtube tag that I decided to blog for you all instead! So this is a short list of 5 products that I will not be repurchasing anytime soon!
1. Natural Collection Cover- Up Cream- This product comes in two shades; Fair and Medium. I bought this concealer in the shade 'fair', but it came out a light orange colour. It doesn't blend well into the skin and takes hours to dry. It also goes flaky when pressed powder is applied over it, so it looks awful. It didn't cover up my blemishes. It just accentuated them by creating an orange border around them! I would rate this product 0/5.
2. Collection 2000 Lasting Colour Lipstick- I bought this product purely because I loved the colour which I bought it in, which was 'Bubblegum', which is just a really fun, bright and bold pink. The lipstick had a really overpowering vanilla scent, which was very sickly. I also felt that it looked cakey when applied, as it was so thick. It also looked really a really garish colour because of the opacity. I would rate this product 1/5.
3. Barry M Mint Green Nail Polish- I love the colour of this product and was really excited to try it, but the product is so thin, that you have to apply 4-5 coats of it to achieve the colour shown on the bottle, which makes it really thick. The brush isn't very good, as it's very small and the actual nail varnish takes a very long time to dry. After I removed the nail varnish I discovered that the colour had transferred onto my nails and left them very dry and in a really bad condition. The greed tint on my nails took about a month to go completely, so I would definitely use a base coat underneath the nail polish. I would rate this product 1/5.
4. Gosh Velvet Touch Black Eyeliner- I received this eyeliner in a christmas gift set, so the colour might be limited edition. I actually love this eyeliner, it's very pigmented, lasts for hours and is really easy to apply. However, it's one of those eyeliners that you can't sharpen or twist to get more product, so when you open the product what you see is what you get (and that's not very much at all!). I think that as it costs £4.99 there should be a lot more product, as it doen't last very long at all. I would rate this product 2/5.
5. Maybelline Great Lash Mascara- I bought this mascara in the shade Black Waterproof. I had heard really great reviews about it and couldn't wait to buy it. The first thing I noticed about this mascara is how dark the colour is. It's good if you are going for a dramatic smokey- eye look, but as I wanted an everyday mascara, I knew this wasn't the right one for me. The name 'Great Lash' makes you think great big false- looking eyelashes, but I found that it didn't curl, lengthen or create volume. It just made my eyelashes really dark. I would give this product 2/5.
