Disappointing products!!!

So we all know how much we love makeup, but sometimes there is some products that we wished that we hadn't spent our money on. This are the products i personally didn't think was either worth the hype or the money.

First up is Mac eyeshadows

I only now have a few left in a z palette, i used to own rather alot of mac eyeshadows including the palette, but once i started trying different brands i realised there eyeshadows were just pretty average to be quite honest, i would take makeup geek or colour pop over mac anyday. The pigment is still good but not compared to cheaper brands so this are the only colours i have left now.

Next up is the tarte tarteist contour palette, i was so excited to get this but i am rather disappointed by this, i love tarte products and never had a bad word to say, but this was just a bit nerrrr, i would say the only half decent shade is the pink blusher shade which is pretty stunning like the rest of there blushes. The two top highlighting shades i use to set my under concealer but its so dry i can hardly pick anything up on my brush and then so i feel like its dragging on my skin. The bronzer and contour shades are okay nothing really to rave about and nothing terrible either. Now the highlight in the middle on the other hand is the most awful highlight ever! No pigment what so ever and just like putting a white cast on my face, no shimmer, no nothing.

I heard so many great things about this milani foundation so i had to try it when it was on sale on beauty bay, firstly the shade range is awful, this is the lightest shade and it is so yellow and dark so how they can call this the lightest shade i will never know, i only just made this work for me so anyone paler no way. It is incredibly full coverage but it doesn't seem to last and shows up my pores terribly. It is quite a thick texture as well.

Scandel queen fairydrops mascara is one of my favourite youtubers mascara recommendations, so i thought i would give it go, and i defiantly won't be repurchasing this again, it is waterproof for one which isn't my choice but it is the dryest formula i have ever used it is awful. I can hardly get anything onto my lashes without trying to overload them. When i eventually get them coated it does last well during the day, but then trying to get it off NIGHTMARE!!! Even with waterproof eye remover it still takes forever and then makes your eyes sore from the amount of rubbing.

I love the urban decay naked skin concealer, and these are exactly the same texture which i love, these were so hyped up and unfortantly just didn't live up to my personal expections. I do suffer with dark under eyes so i always need to correct them before my foundation and concealer but this just didn't have the coverage like my bobbi brown and tarte correctors which are more of a cream base which i do prefer.

I brought both these mascaras last year in America, new york and florida as i had to try them and everyone raves about them so o was so excited. Now for me there just a normal mascara nothing amazing at all i have to use both to get volume and length as neither can do both for my lashes.

Now considering this is called matte and poreless for oily skin, i then don't understand why my face looks so oily when i wear it throughout the day. This seperates on my skin very quickly, pores showing through and literally sliding off my face, i am really starting to love drugstore foundations but this was a serious let down.
