Today’s question is: “Is there a product you regret buying? Why?”
Hi Darlings, so today’s post is going to be another: Mimi & Julia Ask.
Where we are going to ask you a beauty related question and we want to read your answers so make sure to leave a comment.
If you have a question for next week you are free to ask and I’ll make sure include it in another post and to give you credit for it.
Is there a product you regret buying? Why?
Mimi: Yes, the Natasha Denona Sunset Palette. Don’t get me wrong, the palette is beautiful and the quality is incredible but this palette is 129$. I got it for 50% off but I still think it’s not worth it.
Some shades are absolutely identical that is pointless to have them all and I really don’t like the packaging. Honestly, if I’d have paid full price I’d be very pissed.
Julia: I have two, they are both from Benefit, they are the Benefit Cosmetics Gimme Brow+ Volumizing Eyebrow Gel and the other is Benefit Cosmetics 24-HR Brow Setter Shaping & Setting Gel.
They are essentially the same product, on is tinted and one is not. I just don’t think Benefit brow products are worth the price they have. I barely use them and even if they are good product, I regret buying them.
NOW IT’S YOUR TURN: LEAVE US A COMMENT SO WE CAN START A CONVERSATION.

I once bought a few Inglot eyeshadows and honestly, I just never reach for them, and there nothing special. I have so many other alternatives, so I just don’t reach for them. Nice to know about the Natasha Denona palette ❤️ Great post girls xx
Mimi dice
Thank you for reading honey, I had the same problem with my Inglot eyeshadows, I liked them but I barely reached for them

Oh man, I’m sure there is but I can’t recall. I got a mascara once that worked terribly, but I can’t remember the brand.
Mimi dice
Oh god those mascaras are the worst!

lololol so much hate for the ND Sunset 😂 ….. I HATED the Mini Lila so much. I was so angry with myself for that purchase lol.
But I purchased the Viseart Grande Pro in 2018 and that was an even bigger regret. Just too expensive for what it was!
Mimi dice
I can’t even imagine spending that much! I remember wondering about the mini Lila and you stopped me violently 😂😂😂

I am very sensitive to smells when it come to my face. I ordered an eye cream that I heard RAVE reviews on and it was kind of pricey, so I decided to try it. It smelled like a product I would find in my grandmas medicine cabinet that has been there for decades. I couldn’t end up using it because of the smell!
Mimi dice
I’m sensitive to scents too so I can totally feel you! There are definitely products I can’t use because I hate the scent of them. L’Oreal lipsticks are one of them

Always good to know what to avoid. I like Benefit but have never tried their brow products. Thanks for the heads-up!
Mimi dice
You are welcome!
mahnoorkhurram dice
Thank god you didn’t pay the full price! And I feel you, I’ve experienced such things so many times!
Mimi dice
Yeah I’m so happy about that actually, I’d have been way more pissed if I did spend the full price
Monica dice
Nothing specific is coming to mind but I do know that my favorite mascara is $4.99. I just don’t think those expensive brands are ever worth it.
Mimi dice
They are sometimes but you can definitely find good affordable products too
Erica dice
Actually the items I’m going to mention have already been decluttered, but I used to have a few Burberry single shadows and while they were lovely quality I just never reached for them. And they were pricey!!
Mimi dice
I can imagine! I’ve never tried their makeup though!
Erica dice
I’ve barely tried their makeup, just some of the eyeshadows. I’ve been interested in some of their base products in the past, but their makeup is kinda tricky to get here.
Mimi dice
Yes same here x
Katja dice
I think it’s ABH Norvina palette. The palette is beautiful, but I hate the fallout and the eyeshadows are so pigmented, that I have to be extra careful while applying and many shades look reddish on my skin, so again I have to put effort to make them work. There are so many alternatives out there so I don’t feel Norvina is worth so much work.
Mimi dice
I actually love the Norvina but I feel like ABH eyeshadows expire very quickly so it’s not worth it if you don’t use it much
Rossy Galaxy dice
Wow I cannot think of something I’ve bought that I regretted… I grew my collection thanks to boxycharm so if I didn’t like something it usually came from there and I was never really out much money since the box is higher value it pays for itself lol..
Mimi dice
That makes so much sense and you are actually very lucky!
