Disappointing Products | Volume 3

Hey everyone! Welcome to another update on some disappointing products! I have set 5 aside for you to share my thoughts on so let's get started!


Equate Professional White Whitening Strips (20 EasyFit Treatments) - These were definitely the worst white strips that I have ever used in my life and they are not a dupe for the Crest 3D White Strips. I will never repurchase these again and they have a weird scent to them as you are peeling them out of the packaging. They also split on me while removing them and they didn’t even do a great job at whitening my teeth. They are definitely affordable but I would rather just splurge a bit more to get a better product that I know will do the job rather than pick these up at Wal-Mart to get white strips that are less effective.

Juice Beauty Hydrating Mist (200 ml) - The main reason why I even picked up this product in the first place was because I was browsing the different setting sprays and facial mists on the Sephora website. I noticed that this one was a great price and you got a generous size of 200 ml. I don’t like the sprayer as the product often comes out in large droplets on my face and is usually inconsistent. I only use this at night in hopes of finishing it up soon and I really seen no difference in my skin. Also, they increased the price by $2 on this product since I last purchased it in early December and if you want a more detailed review, check out the one linked that was written by me a few months ago!
Update: Sephora Canada no longer has this item and I found it at Ulta.

Estee Lauder Nutritious Vitality 8 Radiant Energy Mist (30 ml) - You would have seen this product in my Estee Lauder & L'Oreal Warehouse Sale Haul | March 2018 but I did not do a dedicated review on this facial spray because it has been discontinued. I honestly feel like it didn't do anything to my face it was definitely not worth $20 which is the price that I paid for it. The bottle is small compared to the one by Juice Beauty and there's probably a good reason why it was discontinued in the first place.

Bath & Body Works Sheet Masks (20 g/0.7 oz per mask) - I really don't care for their sheet masks and many of them do have an odd scent to them. I really saw no difference in my skin after using several sheet masks by them. Check out my blog post where I was Testing All The Bath & Body Works Sheet Masks.

Smashbox 24 Hour CC Spot Concealer (2.5 ml) - I dislike this product for many reasons. The first one being that is hard to get ahold of as I spoke to an online rep on the Smashbox website and she let me know that it is no longer carried in-stores. You can only get it online from the Smashbox website I believe. It is $20 for one bottle and you only get 2.5 ml of product which is nothing. I understand that this is a spot concealer but that's crazy! My last reason is that the packaging is so messy and you want to put this in a plastic bag if you travel with it because it can possibly spill everywhere in your makeup bag or purse. Overall, I say pass on this product because there's too many cons that outweigh the pros. I did feature this in my Estee Lauder Warehouse Sale | Winter 2017 haul.


Until next time,

STAY CLASSY
