I'm sure we have all bought and tried products that we've been disappointed in, and one good point about the Internet/blogs is finding out unbiased reviews. Here's a few regrets of mine:
Revlon Lip Butter - I'm possibly being a bit presumptuous here as my main gripe is with Peach Parfait (does it need to be so shimmery??) Like many others in the UK I waited with baited breath for these to eventually be released and when they finally appeared I was completely underwhelmed. Reasonable colour payoff but not especially balm-like, if anything a little drying.
Max Factor Smokey Eye Effect - so pretty in the tube, in the advert the model looked amazing. The result? No colour whatsoever. Use as a base? Needn't have bothered as there was no effect, smokey or otherwise.
No7 BB cream - all companies jumped on the hype and wanting to try one of the first brands who offered a shade that didn't appear orange I gave it a try. I may as well have just used a foundation as this didn't give the light, blend-able formula that original BB creams are known for. Difficult to blend and not the most flattering tone either.
Tresemme Lift & Hold Hairspray - really? A hairspray? I found no lift, no hold either. Its a same as I do like the brand but this had no effect.
Soap and Glory The Fab Pore - nice enough mask but no improvement or change seen to pores.
Do you agree with any of these comments? Are any of these your favourites?
