Mac foundation - too heavy
Frizz ease - makes my hair really greasy
Benefit Ooh La La - gave me white circles under my eyes

Dr Haushka rose cream brought me out in organic zits
Turnaround cream had the same effect on my face as a brillo pad dipped in acid
I rather like the pong of 8 Hour Cream expat but the family complain!

Dermatologica face mask
Red lipsticks, most notably a Chanel one
OPI nail varnish

oh i'll have your red chanel lippie expat

I gave it to DD1 for her makeup box

lucky girl!

Benetint-made me look like a doll and then wouldnt come off for about 3 days..

Benefit's Dr Feelgood, cack.
BeneTint is genius IMO.

St Tropex tan. Looked like I had been smeared in radioactive cow shit.

Every bronzing powder that has ever been made.

I now realise that I am meant to look pale.

Maybe I was using it wrong..
Sorry to hijack-has anyone tried Benefit Lemonaid?Is it any good?

Lemonaid and Booo-ing are fab.

Well then I may invest..Gawd love me, I need all the help I can get at the moment..

i always think im being conned, but i do go back for more,wish i had the cheek to return half of it as breech of trades description act.

touche eclat-a-like (wouldn't blend)
neal's yard wild rose beauty balm (soo greasy, but to be fair it was a present)
clearasil toner (tis nail varnish remover)
garnier fructis shampoo and conditioner (somehow made my dry hair lank)
herbal essences fruit fusion shampoo (DH hated smell)

Oh, yes! Pantene shampoo. Vile! Turns hair into an oil slick.

see I love Pantene shampoo - even supermarket own-brand pantene-a-likes

weird, eh?

I may as well have poured oil over my head if I use Pantene.

Clarins Beauty Flash Balm, it make my face feel stcky and tight.

Like a lot of people, Touche Eclat. What is it for? You put weird pearly pink gunk under your eyes, it just about disappears but leaves a slight pearliness and then what?

All expensive mascaras - I have fat eyelids and look like a panda at the end of the day with them. Only MaxFactor doesn't smudge.

Most BeneFit gimmicks. Boing, Dr Feelgood, Lip Plump, the eye one that's like Touche Eclat, BeneTint (fuschia coloured!).

The Estee Lauder thing called Spotlight. Put crazy pink glitter all over my face. What are they thinking? Although, I used to use a Revlon thing like that and believed it made me look better - can't remember the name, came in a glass jar. Ultratint? It was by Ultimo, anyway.

Anything by Benefit. Touche eclat - quite apart from the lurid under-eye pearliness it starts to smell of mildew after a while.

macneil - are you referring to Glowtion?

If so, it was fab I love it - wish you could still get it!!

Yes, bronzing powders.

Arrrggh!

Have yet to find one that is effective.
