OVERRATED PRODUCTS ARGH!

Okay, so I watch a lot of YouTube videos. It really is an obscene amount. I'm particularly interested in makeup gurus, the ones who actually know their stuff at least. Now, I'll try a product if it seems like something that will jive well with me but a lot of the time I end up wasting my hard earned student loans on trash.

Here are a few items that I think are completely overrated and should simply get off my computer screen:



                                                                              #1
                                                                    Revlon Colorstay     

So, I really like the combination/oily formulation of this foundation. It stays for hours, doesn't settle into my wrinkles and doesn't make me break out. It's the normal to dry skin formula that sucks rhino juevos. It goes on sheer-er than a tinted moisturizer, lasts maybe 6 hours (this coming from someone with dry skin) and it makes my skin look like it's not skin. Poop on this foundation.

#2

Cetaphil Facial Cleanser

Oh my god, if I could express my resentment towards every dermatologist, aesthetician or numbskull on the planet for suggesting this cleanser, I would do so until the depths of the universe hath been discovered. This cleanser is the shittiest thing I have ever slathered on my face and with acne, lord knows I've tried it all. Not only does it smell like absolute donkey poo, it is extremely drying while not cleaning my face what so ever. It has sodium laureth sulfate or whatever the heck that soap-like ingredient is and it really doesn't contain anything beneficial for skincare. I have no idea why dermatologists are so obsessed with this brand. I'm thinking there's some ass-kissing happening between the two. Anyway, long story short, this cleanser is crap. I don't care how cheap it is or convenient that you can buy it pretty much anywhere, it is no bueno folks.

#3

Maybelline Baby Lips

I just don't understand the hype with this product. Okay, it's in a convenient little tube. The packaging is fairly cute. It has sunscreen built in, though it is octinoxate which I don't care for but suncreen nonetheless. However, it goes on the lips extremely greasy, it lasts for two minutes until your lips feel chapped again and it's extremely waxy. How something can be so waxy like that and lack the ability to moisturize is beyond me. Just no, Baby Lips, no.

#4

Lancome Art Line

This eyeliner smudges like a mofo and is extremely difficult to use. The applicator tip is far too long which doesn't end well when trying to create the perfect winged cat eye. Not to mention, it's overpriced. Don't buy this product. There are way too many drugstore liners that will do ten times a better job than this liner. Yucky mess.

#5

Lush Bubblegum Lip Scrub

This product is just a gimmick. Not only does it not get the dead skin off your lips, it's supposedly supposed to taste like bubblegum. Yum right? Well, it doesn't. It tastes absolutely disgusting, like straight up jojoba oil. Which makes sense, because that's an ingredient in the scrub. And this ain't cheap which makes me hate the product even more. You'd be better off scrubbing your lips with some warm water and a soft bristled toothbrush, trust me.
