The other thread was getting too long and difficult to load!
So what are your beauty pet peeves? What grinds your gears? Share your stories!!!
@fieldsofclover Boy can I ever relate sister. My ordeal, random reaction to DEODORANT. I thought it odd at first, itchy, rash, hives. So I bought a different scent. SAME reaction. So I bought a different brand. SAME reaction. Now the rash is going to my face...NOPE. Go to my dr. Tells me its either one of two ingredients in deodorant i'm allergic too and that our bodies can just react due to overuse. So I go to natural health stores, find some without those two ingredients...STILL ITCHY, STILL RASH. WTH!! I'm in tears. What's a girl to do?! I've spent about $100 on natural deodorants and i'm still reacting. Last week I go into a different natural store and a teenage girl is working, I explain my scenerio...BAKING SODA! She yells excitedly. Turns out when you remove the two ingredients im allergic too, natural companies often add baking soda in their place BUT she knows of one that doesn't. She grabs it for me, of course it's $35C but I buy it...and wouldnt you know...she was right ❤ no itchy and I pleasently smell of blackberries lol
@fieldsofclover! Oh no, I hate when that happens! Somewhere around 35 I became allergic to Vanilla scented products (??) and there are a lot of them! I had to give two expensive perfumes that I'd been using away. On the plus side, my friend was happy.
Not a peeve, but do you ever read things wrong...? My eyes swore they saw a U and not an L and an I. I’m never going to see this palette the same again and I kinda love it.
Oh that definitely looks like a U hahahaaa
Haha, I thought you were just talking about the name of the palette, or whatever. And I was like, “Why would anyone think it said Star Ut?” Then I looked at the actual shadow names, and it made MUCH more sense.
That does seem like the best kind of eye trick to forever give you a little chuckle.
"the gutter palette"
I'll never see this palette again with any other shade name than that LMAO 😄
This will be two related peeves.
Sometime last week I misplaced my ABH foundation stick I use for contour. I swear I did a clean sweep of my vanity and it was just GONE. I gave it a couple days to turn up, went through a few bags, my car and my work desk and still couldn’t find it.
I have a really, really, really big event coming up at the beginning of March that I need to do special makeup for. I decided to replace the product but wanted to use the opportunity to try something new. So I ordered the Fenty Match Stix in Amber, which was delivered today and should be the end of my peeve. Nope!
So of course right on cue while I’m doing my face this morning I look over at the same jar I searched at least 20 times the past two weeks and my contour stick is sitting right there. In front of my eyes, in the open. I live alone and highly doubt anyone is breaking in, borrowing an old, used contour stick and bringing it back in the middle of the night! So it’s nice to have it back but kind of annoying because I’m seriously questioning my sanity. And I’ve bought a replacement, which was scheduled to be delivered today. Which leads me to the next peeve...
Got home from work to my Sephora delivery. Opened it up and and was bummed to find a very poorly packed and opened product. It’s mostly fine (but the top of the product inside is smushed a little weirdly, but I don’t think it’s been used by someone else). But the product box itself had come totally open because everything was loose and just knocking around during shipping. There was no packing securing anything down. I’ve never called to complained to the Rouge line before but I think I will tomorrow.
(And, no, didn’t get the samples I requested either. 😂 That’s a given!)
@starsandbucks, I do that "lost it, but not really lost" thing all of the time. Especially when it's right in front of me. SO I understand! Sorry about the Sephora package delivery, though.
Ugh, that drives me nuts when I can’t find things! Usually it’s either the cat or the baby who have resituated my belongings, but sometimes, yeah, I lose my things in plain sight. It’s worse when I accuse one of the above mentioned on my frantic searches to find things only to find it was actually me who misplaced or overlooked something. 😳 @starsandbucks
and wow, i can’t believe they sent that in that condition.
I lost a lipstick a few months ago. Tore my place apart looking for, checked the tray it should have been in half a dozen times, even laid out the entire container piece by piece and couldn't find it. Ordered another one (same product, but decided I wanted to try a different color this time). Went to put the new one up when it arrived, and lo and behold, the missing one was right where it was supposed to be. What the...?? How does this happen?
At least now you have two 😄
@RGbrown @starsandbucks It's the faeries. Obviously they were playing with your makeup and also wanted you to treat yourself to something new. Duh. LOL
I can't stand it when Sephora will get a new brand (at least one that I have never heard of) and immediately there are tons of 5 star reviews.
I understand that there are brands I'm unaware of, but this just makes me feel like I will never buy from this brand.
