I’m not a huge fan of writing these posts, I love to read them but I’d rather write about products that have made me a happy bunny. However, I’ve accumulated some products I don’t really get any use out of for various reasons whilst having a little clear out.
Umberto Giannini
I have two products from his range that I’m not fussy on, the root boost volume and the Backcomb in a bottle. I was particularly excited about Backcomb in a bottle because a few friends raved about it and who doesn’t love volume in their hair? Like most of these volume sprays, they made my hair dry and crispy, as if I’d sprayed too much hairspray. Ok yes that did mean my hair stayed in place but I like silky and soft hair. They both did the same thing for me and although they’re not terrible, they give you that messy beach look, I don’t reach for them ever and they’ve been sitting collecting dust on my desk.
James Brown Heat Protect Spray
There is nothing wrong with this, it’s meant to just protect your hair from heat but I’ve found so many better products for cheaper. It smells amazing though.
Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser
I used to love this when I bought it because it removes make-up really well, however I don’t think it actually does anything for my skin besides remove make-up.
YSL Pure Rouge Shine Lipstick Number 18
What was I thinking? This lipstick is brown and glittery. It’s actually hideous on me but back when I was 16 I clearly thought I looked amazing. I don’t know why I still have it, I guess I find it hard to throw any YSL products away.
BarryM Nail Paint in 342 Nude
I love BarryM nail polishes but this one really doesn’t show up on my nails much and it’s not a flattering colour on me. I can imagine it looking gorgeous on tanned hands.
BarryM Lip Lacquer Crayon No.3
Sorry BarryM, I do love you I promise but this lip crayon was atrocious on me, it’s red and very glittery but makes me look like a 5 year old trying on their mums makeup.
MAC Lip Pencil in Naked Liner
I love MAC Lip pencils, they’re worth the money but this one doesn’t show up on my lips at all, it doesn’t even show up when I swatch it on my hand. It’s way too pale for me
