Drug Store ReGRETS!

One of my favorite posts to read is the things people don't like, is that strange or is it just helpful? 
I am not dissing these products but they really just did not work for me and I was very disappointed!


*GARNIER Skin Renew Dark Spot Corrector Clinical $11.99
Of course I was very hesitant when purchasing this but I do have some marks on my skin that I would be happy to erase, I have been using this for a couple months and I have no luck as of this even doing anything. I am not surprised since it is cheap and I even hear negative feed back from Clinique dark spot corrector and that stuff is stupid expensive. This tube is really massive for what the cost is and now a days you really don't get something amazing in a large size for so cheap, I should have known better. =/

*RIMMEL Scandal Eyes $7-8(I don't remember for sure but it was around this price)
Okay this is just ridiculous! I love the idea of the large brush but this was just so big it like swallowed my eyes when I tried to apply to my lashes. The brush is so large that it wouldn't even go through my lashes properly as well the formula is way too wet for my likings. 

*NYX Shadow in Sparkle Cedar -$7.99 
Ekkkk that was a lot of money for something I REALLY dislike. This shadow is really nice, the color just really didn't look nice on me. Too shimmery or something. It is decently pigmented and applies really nice but just looked like crap on me! Hopefully my sister will want to adopt this shadow.

What was your last product you were disappointed in?

  2. I know, these posts are among my favorite to read too, with empties and hauls! The first post like this I ever saw was on Tracey's blog (Beauty Reflections) and I thought it was wayyyyyyy more interesting than the monthly favorites posts everybody is doing (on of th reason I'm not doing these). That's too bad for the Rimmel mascara, how stupid is it that the brush is too big LOL

    1. Maybe if I used the whole tube? but it would take like a year lol. I think it's worth the splurge on a higher end brand possibly

  5. Ahh what a shame about the Garnier stuff. I use the under eye roller (both the clear, and tinted one) and I feel like they're actually working..and doing a great job at that.
