Regrets!

Being a product junkie, most of you know what I am talking about, you always have the risk of buying things that totally sucked or just didn't work for you.Here are just a couple that I could toss in the trash and not care =/


*Nair Shower Power hair removal cream.Sadly I was disappointed in this product, It smelled unbearable to me for the lack of it actually working. I left it on for longer then stated and once I rinsed it off I still had the hair on my legs =( I have no tried it again and wouldn't recommend this one.. I have been reading some reviews on other products they have so I might give something else a shot.
*Neutrogena microdermabrasion system-I was very disappointed in this thing, it was around $40 and it felt like it was doing nothing for my skin as well the little pads it came with felt like there was no product on them and I actually had to use my cleansers with it. I would never recommend this. I would recommend the Olay professional Pro X instead of this if you are needing a cheaper alternative to the Clarisonic.
*Almay Clear Complexion Pressed Powder-I luckily got this from the clearance bin at Shoppers Drug Mart for under $5.. This is a very chalky type powder that just wasn't for me. It doesn't even apply well because it is so dry,its even hard to get on the pad it comes with.This is for sure made for very oily skin and might work well for you if you are needing something to tone that down a bit.
*Maybelline One by One Mascara-ehhh this really didn't do anything for my lashes not to mention it was all clumpy and gross after a few weeks. Did not make my lashes look longer or thicker so I will not repurchase this =/
*Garnier Fructis Extreme Hold Hair Spray-I think I got this for under $2 at Dollarama and I see why it was there.. It isn't extreme hold it should be called no hold as it was like spraying the weakest hairspray ever! I am glad It was so cheap and I wouldn't buy it again

That's pretty much all I got to say about these, I hope if you have tried them you had better luck then me...what is the latest worst product you have purchased?

I am always liking to know products all the YouTube Guru's and pretty much everyone i know like and dislike. I have a few dislikes that I would like to share with you so you don't waste your money!



Like most people I was looking for a solution where I could wash my hair every other day so I wouldn't dry it out or fade the color so much, I had tried a couple dry shampoo products before but never found to much positive's from them. I watched a couple reviews on the TRESemme Fresh start and thought I would give it a try. This was pretty terrible, I have dark hair so this left my hair a grayish color which is just not cute and just left a gross residue in my hair. It would have been better to just leave my dirty greasy hair alone and i would never ever buy this product. It might work with a lighter hair color or maybe it you have thicker hair (My hair is fairly fine so this did nothing for me)



The next Product I had high hopes for but NOPE it didn't work for me =/  This is the Big Sexy Hair Root Pump Plus Volumizing Mousse. This product wasn't terrible but it wasn't anything special.. It basically did nothing no matter how much or little i used it just didn't help in anyway. And it was pricey.



I was looking for a cheap shampoo & conditioner and I found the Live Clean Argon Oil, cruelty free product. I thought this looked great and the smell was not to bad either, I do find it a bit strong but a vanilla smell to it really did nothing but make my hair flat and lifeless. It was reasonably priced so it wasn't a total loss. I wouldn't recommend this for fine hair.




I am not trying to Dis this line because I am sure it is a good line but I just didn't find this helped my hair either. This leave in conditioner I actually only used three times and didn't even bother trying it any more then that as it made a gross residue in my already flat crappy hair! It weighed it down and I didn't find it protective.. I much prefer the CHI silk Infusion. You really only need a tiny little bit of this as the product does go far, it might be better for curly thicker hair but for this straight haired girl it was thumbs down =(




Okay this product I was so sad and its not a TOTAL regret but I have had it for quite some time and honestly I will never finish the bottle... This is the Everyday Gradual Tan by St. Tropez, which i hear such good things about this company and don't want to be hated on for this but the smell is so terrible I just couldn't handle using it. I could smell it all day long. I tried just using it before bed as it is a light foam but the smell is so off putting and results not great I just gave up. I did pay a lot for this, had to pay for shipping to Canada so that kind of makes me want to use it, but i won't. I definitely would try a different self tanner from St. Tropez just not this one...




Last Product.. Nivea's Happy Time sold me watching those girls on the commercial looking so happy with pretty skin... haha BUT I was not so happy using this. The smell is a strong Orangey smell-not the good kind of orange smell either. This is not moisturizing or anything fancy. It feels like you put it on and it just sits on top of your skin. Needless to say this full bottle will be hanging out under my sink until i can find a home for it, or toss it in the trash! would not ever repurchase.





IS there any products anyone has tried and hated?
