Products I regret buying.

As most of you do, I buy a large quantity of products, more than is considered normal. I do my researches before buying something, but sometimes I hate the product.When this happens I usually give it away to someone that might like it, with that said I sometimes accumulate some stuff that I don't enjoy and don't think any one would.
I am not saying these are horrible products and wouldn't work if you tried them, they just don't work for me.
After seeing 3-days straight by John Frieda everywhere and everyone raving about it I decided to buy it, and I don't think it works the way everyone was saying it did, and every time I try to use this product I just leaves my scalp very itchy. A similar thing happens when I use the TRESemme Iron Style and Hold Spray, I do think this works but I can't bear the itchy feeling.
A sample of Weleda One-Step Cleanser and Toner came in a GlossyBox a while ago, in the beginning I really liked it, after buying the full size it started braking me out, so I stopped using it and gave it to my brother and he loves it.
The product I most regret buying is MAC Select SPF 15 Foundation, it is such a thick foundation that even if I use the minimal possible amount of product it still looks like a mask, I also hate the smell, it is a very strong smell of paint, and I hate the shade, the girl in the MAC store matched me with a very orange shade and after a few hours it becomes even more orange. I absolutely hate this foundation!
Another product I think its too orange is the Bourjois Delice de Poudre bronzing powder, also the chocolaty smell is too strong for my liking.
The last bronzing product is Glam Bronze Blonde Harmony by L'Oreal, I just find it too light for my skin tone and not enough pigmentation.
The Falsies Volum'Express mascara just doesn't work for me, it clamps all my lashes to together. 
The next two products are pratically the same, they are two cream eye shadows by Illamasqua. if you don't mind creasing it would work for you. Even when I set them with a powder they crease like crazy.
Last but not least is the KickAss Concealer by Soap&Glory, It is such a thick concealer that I can't work with it, they crease under the eyes and the shades are too pink and/or too yellow for my skin tone.
Have you bough any products that you regret? Let me know in the comments bellow

  1. This is SUPER useful! I agree with you on the Falsie's volum express, it took an age to get off :(

  3. That's strange because I love that mascara! Although I would say I prefer just Black rather than Black Drama.

    Stange how different products work for different people.

  4. OMG I have exactlu the same problem with my creamy eyeshadows from Illamasqua!
    They really suck and they are so expensive that I don´t even have the courage to throw them away hahaha...

    I am shocked with the MAC foundation, it´s the first time I read a bad review about it. But maybe your skin is too good for a full coverage right?!

    1. I know, right? and Ii hate when high end products suck> the Illamasqua cream eye shadow are so bad that I can't give them away.
      My skin is defiantly not good, but I also am not a fan of full coverage foundation, that could explain why I don't like it :)
