NARS Sheer Matte. I heard so many great things about it for oily skin so I figured it was worth the price so I bought it. I returned it the next day, I hated it. I couldn't blend it if my life depended on it and I had the hardest time even attempting to layer it.

@bailee
I only use lip balm
If I have to use those things just to make it work then the product is useless to me

I think nyx soft matte lip creams look good alone actually. If you buy a product and don't like it on its own and then give up on it when there's multiple things you can do to get the best out of it, then... what the hay. Lol you're going to go through a lot of products then haha!

Agreed when it comes to Nars Orgasm. Too glittery.

Is it really hype though? Or is it that we expected too much or didn't really work with it well?

Oooh Lili, what's that palette called?

@ Gloria G. I just got an email saying that you can get other shades for that palette. Over 20. But I can't imagine you can pick the correct shades for your particular skintone online.

Smashbox full exposure palette, I bought the travel sized version and the matte shades worked well but the glittery shades were terrible, chalky, and hardly showed up

Thanks! I'll probably do that then. Lancome is offering 15% off and free shipping, but that might be better.

@alma in my scenario, I was expecting some holy grail material. But it just didn't work with my skin. I'm pretty sure I could have used it differently to make it work. Interesting way to think about it!

Thanks Sonya, I feel like some products have a learning curve and sometimes it takes patience and figuring it out.

I'm with Carsam! It was complete C.R.A.P.

@shanae
I expected something that actually works properly considering the price since I have cheaper options that work better
I can make a majority of my lip products work straight from the container so it's no real loss to me that the soft matte is crap

Revlon Color Stay made my skin an oily disgusting mess. Maybelline The Falsies made me have spider lashes and I love the colors in KVD eyeshadow palettes but they're just WAY too messy and I have CRAZY fall out.

I agree with nars orgasm, I've heard so many people talk about it yet it just looks so un natural and clowny to me.. I mean bright orangy-pink with gold sparkles? I don't know it might look nice with a tan maybe but other than that.. :/

Some people like things that others don't. Sorry you took that so personally, Ari. It works great for me. (:

Revlon lip butters, I bought a bunch because of the hype, liked them at first but then I realised they just weren't my thing

I never got the hype about loreal true match. I gave it so many chances as I wanted it to work, but it oxidised terribly and made my skin oily as heck. I think almost every thread where someone is looking for foundation recommendations, someone else always recommends true match, I'm like whaaattt lol. Each to their own I suppose!
