-Clinique Moisture Surge Extended Thirst Relief
I really liked this moisturiser for about first three hours when I wore it under my foundation, after about three hours my face was so oily and shiny, it was just disgusting. However I still use it as a night time moisturiser from time to time. Luckily I just had a free sample that I got with a magazine and I didn’t paid full price for it.
-Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturising Lotion
I love love the gel version of this, but I hate the lotion. There are two reasons for it, first it leaves my skin really sticky even when I apply the smallest about. Second, every time I use it I break out like crazy.
-Vichy Normaderm Tri-Activ Anti-Imperfection Hydrating Care
I really wanted to like this product since its Vichy and I’m totally obsessed with French pharmacy brands. When I bought this I was hoping this would a good base for a foundation, but when I applied foundation of top of it, it just looked dry an flakey, however it was ok when I used at night, but I haven’t notice any dramatic difference when using it. This would probably be good a good moisturiser for people with skin that is very oily and they don’t have a problem with acne, but they want to prevent things like blackheads.
-Simple Kind to Skin Hydrating Light Moisturizer
Applying this moisturiser is like applying water, it does nothing at all. It doesn't moisturiser the skin, it leaves it really sticky which makes applying foundation a nightmare.
-Simple Kind to Skin Replenishing Rich Moisturizer
I actually like this moisturiser because it does moisturises the skin really well, but it leaves a very sticky film on the face and also most of the foundation applied on top of it doesn't last more then 2-3 hours, after that my face just looks oily and shiny.
-Simple Kind To Skin Soothing Facial Toner
I might be as well applying water to my face and there would be no difference, this toner does nothing at all. Total waste of money.
-Simple Kind To Eyes Soothing Eye Balm
Similar to Simple Kind to Skin Hydrating Light Moisturiser it does nothing at all.
-Nivea Radiance Boosting Moisturizer
This has to be one of the worst moisturiser I ever tired. There are several reasons why I hate this product:
-smell, it has a very strong artificial smell to it which I just can’t take
-the big chunks of glitter, its meant to be “radiance boosting” but its just full of glitter
-it irritates my skin like crazy, when I tried to apply it I could feel my face was burning
-last but not least, the fact that it doesn't moisturise at all
-Nivea Oil Free Moisturising Fluid
Nivea is probably one of my least favorite skin care brands. I bought this about two years ago when my skin was very oil in the t-zone but dry everywhere else, so I thought that since its oil free its not going to make the t-zone more oily, but it will moisturise the dry parts of my face.. This fluid did nothing, my skin was still dry and my t-zone was even more oily, also it irritated my skin every time I used it, probably because it had alcohol in it and very strong scent.
-Nivea Daily Essentials Tinted Moisturising Day Cream
The only reason I don’t like this tinted moisturiser is the fact its available only in one shade which is perfect for me when I’m tanned but if I’m not, its just to dark. I really like the way it moisturisers and evens out my skin tone.
-Johnson’s Oil Balancing Light Day Fluid
I used this moisturiser only few times and I just don't like it, its really sticky and doesn't “set” on the skin(you know what I mean). Also I haven't notice any “oil balancing” properties. To be honest, its crap.
-Mac Studio Fix Fluid foundation
I love and hate Mac Studio Fix Fluid foundation at the same time. If you ever used this foundation you know that its just like a perfect skin in a bottle(and the smell is to die for). It gives a very natural medium to full buildable coverage with a semi matte to matte finish(depends what moisturiser/primer you use under it), also it stays flawless for about 9-10 hours when set with powder. So by now you probably think why I don’t like this foundation, the main reason that I dislike this foundation is the fact that I get breakouts after 3 hours of wearing it, I think that the main reason for that is the fact that this foundation has a very strong smell, but also it contains mineral oil.
-Clinique Anti-Blemish Solution foundation
I think this would be a good foundation for people that have really oily skin and I mean like oil dropping from the face oily. Its very dry in the texture and really tricky to apply. I gives a nice and natural coverage, but after about 30mins it looks really dry. Also the shade selection its not very good, there are lots of shades to choose from but their either to orange or to pink.
-The Body Shop Primer
I have done a review of this product a while ago, click here for a review.
-Maybelline Superstay 24hr Foundation
The worst foundation ever! I bought this foundation in summer 2010 when it came first came out. I have to say I bought it only because of the TV advert. First thing that I hate about this foundation is the very limited shade range, the lightest color was tad to pink for me and looked bit ashy at the same time?! Second thing is the fact that it doesn’t last more than two hours, even when used with primer. I remember when I was going on my holiday and I thought that it would be a good idea to wear this foundation, so I would have a flawless looking skin after the long journey, and oh boy I was wrong. This foundation started to budge after two hours and after four hours foundation was just gone. Another thing that I didn’t like about this foundation if the thick dry powdery consistency which make it really hard to apply. Total waste of money, don’t buy this!
-L’Oreal True Match Foundation
What I really love about this foundation was the fact that I finally found a foundations that is actually lighter then my skin. The coverage was light to medium which was fine. I found this foundation really hard to apply, its very runny and the foundation didn’t set, I had to set this foundation with powder, because otherwise this foundation would just slide of my face. The staying power wasn’t good either, it lasted about four hours and after that the foundation just disappeared. I don’t recommend it, maybe it would be ok for people with dry skin.
-ELF Studio Blush in Gotta Glow
I bought it to use a highlighter since I read lots of reviews saying that its a dupe for NARS Albatross highlighter. Basically its nothing like the NARS highlighter, what it is, its just a white powder with chunks of silver glitter. Its actually looks nice when applied on a body, but it looks really tacky on the face.
-ELF All Over Color Stick in Spotlight
This meant to be a dupe for NARS Multiple in Albatross which is a cream highlighter. This doesn't give any highlight, its just ruins your foundation. Total waste of money. And also it has a very sweet sugary orangey scent which is just too much.
-ELF All Over Cover Stick in Apricot Beige
I was hoping this will be good dupe for the Mac Stick foundation which has been discontinued a while ago, but I was wrong. Its ok for spot concealing, but it looks really dry when I try to use it as a foundation. The shade is bit orangey, but I found that it neutralizes redness really well. Again this has a same scent as the ELF All Over Color Stick and thats why I don’t use it very often because I’m bit scared that I might get some kind of reaction to it.
-ELF Studio Contour Blush and Bronzer duo
I gave this product so many chances but I just hate it and not because of the pigmentation or the shade but because of the texture, its very hard to work with and blend, it just leaves you with streaks.
-Rimmel Stay Matte Powder
The reason why I don’t like this powder is simple, it makes every foundation look really cakey even when I used a really small amount.
-Collection 2000 Natural Matte and Minerals Foundation
As far as I know mineral foundation should’t give you breakouts, right? Well, this one definitely does. Also its really thick and hard to apply and it oxidizes after 5mins of wearing it and doesn’t cover anything.
-Collection 2000 Perfect Finish Foundation
This foundation gives a very nice natural, healthy looking skin effect, but it doesn't last more then two hours. Also the shade range is very limited.
-Collection 2000 Ultimate Fix 3in1
Three words to describe this product; dry, cakey and horrible.
-MUA Professional Brush-On Concealer Pen
I think this meant to be a cheap dupe for the YSL Touche Eclat. I bought it to conceal my dark circles under my eyes. The coverage and shade its ok, it has a yellow under tone, but is has really strong scent to it which makes my eyes water whenever I apply it.
-Guelain Meteorities Brush
This is a very pricey brush and when I got it I was hoping that it would be very soft and it would make a good travel brush that I could use for touch ups. However the bristles are very hard and scratchy, which makes it very unpleasant to use. Also I notice that I had to wash it every 2-3 uses because it would get clogged up with powder which made the hair even harder.
-Inglot Brush Cleanser
It has a really strong alcohol scent to it and doesn't clean the brushes at all. Again very crappy product.
I hope you enjoyed reading this post, please share, like, tweet and comeback for more. Thank You :-)
