Products I Wouldn't Repurchase




Sometimes, you end up with products in the stash that whilst they're not exactly bad, you probably wouldn't repurchase them either. I've had a big collection clear out recently, and purged a lot of products, and identified a fair few bits that weren't bad, but with hindsight I wouldn't have purchased them.

The Naked Three Palette. Oooh controversial. Now don't get me wrong, I was obsessed with this palette when I first got it (coughs...at 9am the day it was released), but now I really only use the darker shades, and whilst I love them, it A) seems like a bit of a waste, and B) I feel like I could dupe them elsewhere. I'm keeping the palette because I'm sentimental like that, but I feel like I'd be happy without it.

NARS Pro Prime Smudgeproof Eyeshadow Base. The only product from NARS I'm not head over heels for. I like it, but I definitely don't understand the hype around it, it's not any better than any other primers I've tried. I personally prefer the Smashbox Photo Finish Lid Primer, this doesn't really do it for me.

Max Factor Excess Shimmer Eyeshadow in Bronze: A recent purchase, and whilst I love how this looks, it really annoys me that this fades quickly. If they could improve formula so it continued to look freshly applied throughout the day that would be great, because no amount of primer can stop this losing it's intensity. It still looks good, but not as good as when you apply it.

Urban Decay Naked Flushed Palette: What a sorry sight this is. I absolutely ADORE this palette, but it spontaneously combusted in my Muji stash, and it makes me so sad. I love the formula, but I wouldn't repurchase it for fear it would happen again!

Bioderma Deodorant: I kind of panic bought this in a french pharmacy back in March, I was underprepared, I didn't expect to be there! I picked this up because I'd been looking for something a little more gentle to use, my underarms were feeling battered. Whilst this is definitely more gentle, and my underarms feel better, it literally only lasts about three hours, which let's be real, isn't good enough for summer on the underground.

Do you have any products you wouldn't repurchase?
