Love Mario Badesceau seaweed night cream and hydro moisturizer. I did the questionnaire online & they sent those samples, after a few days in dry Vegas, those two products did wonders!

- Buxom Gel Liner - It's an actual GEL liner, not cream like BB.

- Dermadoctor Physical Chemistry

- Givenchy Penomen Eyes Mascara

 

Here's a similar thread from a few months ago where you might find more products http://community.sephora.com/t5/Beauty-Insider/Underrated-and-Overhyped/m-p/588887#M2351 & this one http://community.sephora.com/t5/Beauty-Confessions/Underrated-products-at-Sephora/m-p/595881/highlig...

I don't think the Carol's Daughter products get enough love.  There are some AMAZING products within the line, my favorite being the Monoi repair mask for hair.

 

I also never hear anyone mention the Smashbox Full Exposure mascara, which I LOVE and find very comparable to the Diorshow in terms of the large brushhead and easy volume-building.

 

Although gaining in popularity, I would also say that First Aid Beauty products are still slightly under the radar.

carols daughter products smell amazzzzzing!!!

Re: Favourite underdog products (products that dont recieve enough hype!)

Not sure if this is the right place for this, but now that Prescriptives Comfort Cream is available again, i would take it hands down over La Mer, which i think is nice but it is waaaaay over priced and too hyped IMHO because of the price - so you have a jar of cream that costs $1500+, big whoop - if you $1500 worth than good for you - i have yet to see anyone that uses it with better skin than mine - Kiehl's is another underdog - love it

Avon Shocking Waterproof Mascara : so affordable, not smudgy, great value, easy to apply.

 

Jordana lip liner: affordable, smooth, color selection, lasting power.

 

Sinful Colors nail polish: $1.99, so many colors which are constantly updated every month or so, average to above average formula.

Re: Favourite underdog products (products that dont recieve enough hype!)

I used to love Sinful Colors but I'm wary of them since they stained my nails badly even with a base coat.

KGD and L'occitane. I've heard rave reviews of KGD lip gloss in a lot of other places, but it's not carried in Sephora. And I really like L'occitane's Angelica line, which is not carried here. The skincare from those 2 brands don't get enough attention. =/

 

I've heard so much good things about Mario Badescu but has brought the rosewater/aloe mist. I did get samples of a skincare tailored for me. Looking forward to trying them out and perhaps writing a post this weekend. 😃

Re: Favourite underdog products (products that dont recieve enough hype!)

the buffing lotion is so amazing if you have any cystic acne spots! 

Re: Favourite underdog products (products that dont recieve enough hype!)

I totally agree on the Mario Badescu skin care!
