The first month of the year is winding down. And that means it's time to share what products didn't work for you. Post away!
I got not one but two gritty The INKEY List Oat Makeup Removing Cleansing Balm 5 oz/ 150 mL
@WinglessOne I remember you saying the company advised you to put it in hot water. Do you just done this once, or do you have to do it before every use?
@greeneyedgirl107 Aw, sorry both your Oat Cleansing Balms are gritty. TIL suggested running the tube under warm or hot water on an as-needed basis. You can do it before every use if you want, but that may or may not be necessary. My Oat Cleansing Balm tubes don’t usually get gritty, but if they do, I just squeeze what I need into my palm and then rub my hands together to melt the grit away.
@WinglessOne thanks for clarifying. I'll give it at try. Mine arrived very gritty. 💕
My misses for this month are the LE Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet les Perles in Lumineuse (top) and Delicate (bottom). The swatches look nice, but to actually use them is nearly impossible unless you like lip balms.
The online model swatches show them as very pigmented lipsticks. In reality, at best, they are very sheer lip balms, which I don't care for. The top one is a miss, period--I'm disappointed. For the bottom one, I have a lipstick I can wear it over. This one is salvageable.
Thanks, @blackkitty2014 , or is it "I'm sorry!"? I'm glad, though it wasn't just me. 😝
@Titian06 what a bummer! When you pay for a Chanel lipstick you're expecting it to perform 😯.
Sorry this didn't work out , thanks for letting us know @Titian06
You're welcome, @CorgiMommy ! It's been a while since I've had such a serious miss. I'm still going to see what lipsticks I can use these over--I hate wasting money. 😖
Oh, two more (or one more and a side note!)
CLEAN RESERVE Whipped Cherry Eau de Parfum 3.4 oz / 100 mL eau de parfum spray
i picked up this beauty bazaar point reward as it sounded pretty good but was chemical, fake, cherry ick for me. Tried it 3x to be sure but still a no.
Not sure this is a true miss as it was a sample, but:
HERMÈS Barenia Eau de Parfum Perfume Set sample I received was actually a little tempting. I like warm, scents and HERMÈS Eau des Merveilles 3.3 oz/ 98 mL Eau des Merveilles Eau de Toilette Spray is lovely but this new one wasn’t quite good enough to spark a purchase. This has a similar dry, warmth as eau des Merveilles but has a sharpness and slightly mustiness/old-fashioned note to my nose. I won’t rule out ever purchasing it and it looks like it has a nice bottle, but for now, it’s a pass.
@sister13 based on the reviews it sounds like a lot of people have been disappointed with CLEAN RESERVE Whipped Cherry Eau de Parfum .
Thanks for the reviews, sounds like i won't br trying these @sister13
Thanks for sharing about the CLEAN RESERVE RESERVE - Whipped Cherry Eau de Parfum Travel Spray 0.34 oz / 10 mL eau de parfum spray , @sister13 ! I saw that in the Rewards Bazaar and was thinking about getting it. I'll save my points for later.
I don’t usually have too many misses since I try to avoid blind buys without trying in person first. But, this Montale Lucky Candy Eau de Parfum Travel Spray 0.67 oz / 20 ml eau de parfum spray is not available in store and I wanted to try as I line sweet candy fragrances.
The price is high at $48, but it is 2/3 oz so it’s not outrageous for a travel size.
This description sounds so lovely and the travel bottle is so cute with the gold, pink and the little tinkly charm, but unfortunately, I got absolutely no sweetness or gourmand notes from this, only a cloying, slightly spicy, white floral. Nothing candy! No cocoa, no marshmallow, no sugared delight!
I-still may try some other Montale fragrances, but this I ended up returning. Would love to know if anyone tried it and liked it, or smelled any candy notes, lol.
I also purchased #Ellis Brooklyn VANILLA SIN Hair and Fragrance Body Mist 3.4 oz / 100 ml spray during some sale. It was OKAY but arrived with the sprayer broken off and damaged during shipping (it just leaked out a stream of liquid everywhere after pumping a few times). The scent was okay, but not amazing and there are many better cherry scents out there so that one I also returned (and didn’t repurchase).
I will tell you @sister13 I bought the Montale Eau de Parfum Discovery Set and there are none,,,, none that are good enough to make me buy a bottle. Save your money!! The bottles are gorgeous, but the scents are not great
