What are your hit and miss buys off Instagram? Or is it just me that’s gullible 😀

[EachandEveryone]

Misses- Tallow and Ash perfume laundry liquid. I was completely taken in by that one and I just hope I haven’t set up
a subscription, The smells sounded divine but in reality there is only a faint one that fades very quickly, and the wash power isn’t as good as regular detergent at all.
Lemonade Dolls the less said the better I’m just not an inclusive person I guess. Products gorgeous though.

Hits cube packing bags that are slightly vacuum have been a game changer.
Oat Pantry over night oats have converted me and I do feel abit healthier 😀.
Valentte diffusers last forever and beautiful scents.

i do really need to reign myself in though. Anyone else buy because of Instagram?

Hits were Trinny face cream which I now love and repurchase and this brush thing to get cat hair off fabric (from the mould magic people which was also a hit)
Misses were a flapping bird which the cats hate and a thing to stack jeans or trousers in which is flimsy and too small.

Fellow gullibles/resisters, anyone bought that Halara wide leg jumpsuit? It is stalking me. I think it’s too short even in the tall, but it Will Not Go Away…

Is it the fur friend you got?

Yes! It’s amazing

Me too. I’m happy with the razor, and as someone who is forgetful subscriptions are often useful for me.
The shaving jelly isn’t great IMO barely lathers and it smells like radox shower gel which isn’t a bad thing but makes me think it’s not worth the money because radox is about £2.

Anyone had these trousers….. https://www.bombaby.co.uk/collections/soaked-in-colour-ss25?utm_medium=paid&utm_source=ig&utm_id=6866127696824&utm_content=6866310229624&utm_term=6866127697024&utm_campaign=6866127696824

I just remembered a hit- I bought some Qomfort fake Birkenstocks, which I thought would be awful but are surprisingly good, so a hit.
Miss - some leg makeup that was supposed to magically cover all blemishes, no matter what your skin tone. It doesn’t, it just sits like bad foundation, and the special brush they give you doesn’t seem to do much. I can’t remember the brand off the top of my head, but I have two tubes because they we’re offering an amazing discount

Has anyone tried the zede or nordace bags that are stalking me? Or the foldie?

I’ve just bought a Trim Pod off the back of a Facebook ad.

I don’t have high hopes, but I did it anyway.

I’ll report back.

I got a Nordace bag and it's great. It's the tote style, very good for travelling.

Has anyone tried those lip stain peels - they're all over my Instagram and I'm very tempted..!

I’ve never seen them. I did buy some sparkles for Glastonbury. Has anyone tried those Muslin bed covers they look lovely for the summer but are they a rip off?

Wonderblading? Yes, i have half their collection, love them. Tip, peeling off is a faff, just wipe off with damp cotton pad.

Hits

Rise and fall linen bedding and cashmere scarf - AMAZING

Suri toothbrush changed my life)l - love it and its gorgeous travel case

Meh
Ffern - liked them but not enough to use more than 1/8 of both bottles i got

Crap
Il macquilage. - looked like i was wearing american tan tights on my face

Boostkicks sent me a pair of fake trainers and then a fake return address (so cost me another £40 to post them and have them sent back).

Loved my Halara shorts so ordered 3 more pairs (2 longer length) and a dress. Cost me £85. Didn't like the dress or the 2 pairs of shorts so started a return. They wanted photos of them so duly lay them on the bed,photographed them and uploaded as requested.

They then emailed me asking if I wanted a credit note for £70 plus I COULD KEEP the 3 items I was returning. I accepted. Sold the 3 items on Vinted and ordered the shorts I liked and leggings off Halara using the credit note.

Anyone else had this?

Thanks Finnaly. Is there one that smells like Lime Basil and Mandarin? I'm sick of buying coloured water from Jo Malone but I love the (fleeting) fragrance

@angelinawasrobbed she does! I've PMd you the details (it's excellent!)

Thank you!

Not with this company but I've been bitten by a returns policy in the past. I always always always check trustpilot reviews for fb or Instagram rubbish now and it's usually their crappy returns that stops me ordering.

Has anyone tried Manucurist yet and has a review … ?😆

Loving this thread!

Hit - pet hair carpet brush thingy. Incredibly satisfying to use 😆
Miss - Iconic triple threat mascara which was being plugged everywhere but which was way too thick and clumpy. Also halara, I bought two pairs of trousers which looked awful and spent two days trying to figure out returns policy. Gave up and put in charity bag... Then discovered actual reviews all said same thing.

Halara is hit and miss. I have several items that were some funny plasticy material and went straight to donation bag. But I love some of their stretchy jeans and shorts.

Yes! I love them. Their active and shine ones looks great. I’ve bought a lot of theirs now. Vinted usually have a few listings to try that are cheaper.

I had this too, I asked to return them and they said I could either return, or keep them and get a gift voucher for the same price I paid.

I went for the keep and gift voucher offer 😎

I have the blue striped harem pants they fit well and I have had compliments about them..bought some others but sent them back as just didn't fit or look as good as the first pair..so I recommend the blue stripy ones for sure
