Beauty | Those Disappointing Products

Hello lovelies! Today I thought I'd share with you some of those products that just left me feeling a little disappointed to see if any of you felt the same way, or completely the opposite! This doesn't mean that they won't work for you, but for me they were really just underwhelming products (and yeah that palette is really dirty, whoops!). 

ZOELLA CREAMY, MADLY, DREAMY BODY LOTION (£5.00)

When Zoella's collection came into stores, I was super excited to try all of it because there was so much hype around it. However I was pretty disappointed by the whole of the collection even though I loved the packaging. I don't really love the smell of this, it smells quite generic to me (not quite sure how to describe it) and it does make your skin feel quite greasy after only using a little. It's not really an awful product, but there's just nothing special about it and was a bit of a waste of money. Sorry Zoella! 

APOCALIPS LIP LACQUER IN ECLIPSE (£6.49)

I know a lot of people rave about how much they love Apocalips but me and this lip product did not get on well at all. A lot of people say it smells unpleasant, and I have to agree, the smell of this really puts me off the product. The consistency is way too wet, so it comes straight off your lips as soon as they come in to contact with anything. It's also really tricky to apply well, so I really got stressed out trying to make this look good on me. Plus it does tend to dry on your lips quite oddly after a while so you really have to re-apply it regularly. 

BARRY M SUMMER LOVE EYE SHADOW PALETTE (£6.49)

I bought this palette last year at the end of Summer (limited edition) and it's honestly the worst eye shadow palette I've ever tried because it's not pigmented at all and is very crumbly. It has a really pretty selection of shimmery pastel colours, and a highlighter but these just don't show up on your eyelids at all (especially if you're pale like me). It's a real shame because I love the pretty mint packaging, colour selection and the two little double end applicators that come with it but it's just a little bit useless! I'd love to hear if anyone else has tried any Barry M products that aren't nail related as I'm curious to see if they're a good brand outside of nails. 

YES TO GRAPEFRUIT FACIAL SCRUB (£8.00)

If you follow my blog, you'll know I love facial scrubs but this one was really a miss for me. On first impressions I loved this. It smells gorgeous like grapefruit and has this quite sugary texture but when I used this on my face I didn't really see any results at all. It's not an awful product by any means but for the price I paid and the limited results, I was left wanting more. 

Thank you for reading lovelies! Have a great Saturday - and don't forget to comment below and let me know what you thought of these products, were you disappointed too?
