When your makeup collection is as large (read: disgustingly excessive) as mine, there are always gonna be a few products that get forgotten. There's nothing wrong with these products, and I like them all a lot, they just don't get as much loving as they should.
I've had the Tropic Mineral Foundation for a really long time now, it's a gorgeous lightweight mineral foundation powder that gives you a little coverage without making you look like you're wearing makeup. I love how this looks on, but the reality is it often gets forgotten about because it takes longer to apply than a regular foundation.
The Revlon Photo Ready Skinlights is a lovely multi-purpose product, it makes a good pre-foundation glow-giver, and a good highlighter too. I feel like I don't use this all that much because highlighter tends to be the step I skip. It is however, a lovely product, especially for a drugstore pick!
The Benefit Sugarbomb Blush was one of the first high end products I ever bought, and I was obsessed with it for a long time, but it's been a while since it got any loving from me. It's a beautiful peachy pink blush with a gorgeous shimmer, but the shade is so light I feel like it doesn't show up on my skin at the moment whilst I have a tan.
I got the Smashbox Cream Blush in Captivate in a gift set a while back, and whilst it has a gorgeous formula and is a beautiful nudey-pink shade, it just doesn't get any loving from me. I have no explanation and no excuse, I just never reach for it!
Lovelorn is one of the first MAC lipsticks I bought, and I was totally hooked on it during my first year of Uni. However, just like Sugarbomb, I find it's a little too light for me right now. Maybe I'm not as pale as I used to be!
I got the Bare Minerals The Power Neutrals Palette with a birthday ASOS voucher this year, excited to find a taupe based palette for a reasonable price. The formula of this palette is incredible, the shadows are buttery soft, with amazing pigmentation and lasting power, but I just never reach for it.
I think I;m going to stick all of these products in the top drawer of my Muji and make an effort to use them more!
Do you have any neglected products?
Love the sound of so many of these products!! :) Lilly xx http://alittlelilly.blogspot.nl/
ReplyDeleteI definitely have neglected products too, also because I tend to use the same things daily - I don't really have the opportunity to wear eyeshadow or lipstick, let alone switch them up. I definitely neglect products that take a little bit more effort to use in favour of quicker, easier products. The Smashbox blush looks really pretty though!Tasha // http://shiwashiful.blogspot.com.au/
ReplyDeleteIt is so easy to neglect products when you have a big collection. Keeping your products somewhere you will notice them definitely sounds like a good way to remember to use them!Ioanna | www.hearting.co.uk

ReplyDeleteI have that bareMinerals palette too, and I never reach for it either! Weird. The formula really is fantastic.Hopefully in the fall, I'll be more excited to use grey and taupe bases. In the summer, I tended toward the champagnes.Melissa | www.misformelissa.com
ReplyDeleteIt used to happen to me a lot but I've started moving my products around once a month and it's working, I pretty much rotate everything! My most neglected products are my MAC eyeshadows though, I like them but I barely use them!<a href=gyudynotesofbeauty.blogspot.com>Gyudys Notes Of Beauty</a>
