Monthly Misses: February 2024

[greeneyedgirl107]

It's been an interesting month with all the issues logging onto BIC.  And I bet there were some beauty misses, too.  Please share them here.

I would have to go with the Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm for Hydration & Shine i know it’s very popular and I’m sure works lovely for people, I just didn’t have the best experience 🫶💕

@peculiarzmakeup I am on the fence about this product.  It is good but not worth all the hype , there are better products out there 

[peculiarzmakeup]

I can so relate! Sometimes it’s those products that have less mention or are a personal preference that really have that hype due to it being a good fit for the individual! @CorgiMommy  ❤️🫶

[Loretta55]

I didn’t care for it either @peculiarzmakeup. I didn’t find it moisturizing enough.

[peculiarzmakeup]

It kinda felt sticky like you said lack of moisture! But it’s nice to hear the success stories I found a gloss I really like so I’m happy with that! @Loretta55  ❤️

[Loretta55]

Is the product that you are talking about LAWLESS Forget The Filler Lip Plumper Line Smoothing Gloss @peculiarzmakeup ? That is another favorite of mine.

[peculiarzmakeup]

Yes it is! It definatley is a favorite for me as well @Loretta55 ❤️

the new shade ( just enough) of the PATRICK TA Major Headlines Double-Take Crème & Powder Blush Duo was not my favorite. i have the shade shes a doll and really like it, but even on my pale skin the lighter shade looks really chalky. formula is still great, but the color was not my fav

[peculiarzmakeup]

I hope you find a better fit 🫶 @sct2 

[CorgiMommy]

@sct2 that happens sometimes, just try again 

[danielledanielle]

@sct2, thanks for the honest feedback.  Sorry for the outcome, but at least you have she's a doll!

I kept waffling on getting another one since Sephora pulled She's Baked and I think Do We Know Her is replaced with one of the newer ones.  But, I wasn't drawn to the new shades since they were rumored to be less pigmented, so it helps to know that the pigmentation is off.

I tried the reformulated version of Josie Maran Vanilla Bean - Whipped Argan Oil Refillable Firming Body Butter Jar 13.5 oz / 400 mL @greeneyedgirl107 . I felt like I was applying lotion to my skin and not body butter. The scent remained unchanged but it was much weaker in this new version. Guess I will have to hunt down some of the old version and hoard them.

[peculiarzmakeup]

The name of it sounds so lovely, but I hope you find something more in the realm of what your looking for 💕🫶 @Loretta55 

[Loretta55]

The product was reformulated @peculiarzmakeup. I have been using it for over 10 years and I am hoping that Josie reads the feedback from your customers.

[CorgiMommy]

That is very disappointing to hear @Loretta55 . 

[Loretta55]

I’m hoping that Josie will listen to her consumers and go back to the original version @CorgiMommy .

[eshoe]

Oh that's a bummer, @Loretta55. I was just telling @lmaster how much I loved her body butters...this does not bode well 😐 

[lmaster]

@eshoe @Loretta55 what!!?? So it no longer has that thicker consistency??

[Loretta55]

Unfortunately the new version is not thick @lmaster @eshoe . I am extremely disappointed. I purchased it at QVC on Saturday when it was a TSV. Hopefully Josie will listen to her consumers and she will reformulate it back to the original version.

[lmaster]

Wow I guess with the packaging its in, it would have to be somewhat thin to come out... That never dawned on me @Loretta55
