@Ellie really? Benefit They're Real is awesome (I'm going to post about this later on lol) is it because it's hard to take off?

Underrated : MAC Lipstick
Basically all Elf products
Overrated:
Baby Lips
Covergirl TruBlend Foundation
Everything by Sephora, sephora's makeup is extremely cakey. Not the best.

Underrated:
MUA, I love the brand so much! And it's cheap!
NYX Lipsticks. I have 20 and love each and every one of them.
Mally Cosmetics. So pigmented, long wearing and worth the price.
BareMinerals. Same as Mally Cosmetics.
Liz Earle skincare. Definitely my favourite skincare brand.
Overrated:
Maybelline. Never had a good experience with any of their products.
Vaseline. Might as well put oil on you.

@Fashion B weirdly I don't find it all that difficult to take off. I just find it super clumpy no matter how I apply it, and I have plenty of budget £2 even options that I much prefer! Don't get me wrong, I'll use it up, but it won't be a repurchase for me.

Underrated:
Flirt cosmetics lipsticks, (been using since middle school lol). Tarte airbrush foundation powder. Jordana best lash extreme, nyx liquid illuminator (the born to glow one). Physicians formula kohl kajal liners, mica pigments, And of course my fave product of all time: Elizabeth Arden 8 hour cream lip balm
Overrated:
Hard candy baked bronzer in tiki, naked palletes, benefits porefessional, ecotools face brushes, Essie nail polishes

@Ellie, AGREED About that mascara!! I hated it and was unimpressed by it.
Oct 30, 2014
Andrea V.
Of course I agree with you fashion B!! Pro long wear, like it creases so bad on me since I have a lot of fine lines. And it's hard to work with!!

I vote no to Eos!! sorry. glad it works for some ppl but a total fad in my opinion..
Oct 31, 2014
Tonita C.
@ Andrea V...yes I forgot to mention that STUPID prolongwear concealer! 😝😝😝 and yes agreeing w Naomi..EOS is cute packaging, nothing more.

Underrated: Milani lipsticks! These are some of the best lipsticks I have tried from the drugstore. Super creamy, pigmented, and affordable for someone on a budget
Overrated: I was not at all impressed with any items from the Revlon Nearly Naked line - horrible consistencies, bad wear time, appeared extremely cakey and unnatural on the skin, etc.

Overrated: Anastasia brow products; I honestly don't think there as good as people make it out to be. Also beauty blenders; it's soooo hyped and it literally is a makeup sponge with a different shape, nothing too special and it's ridiculously priced! And Nars blush... Elf has several dupes that match Nars in shade and almost in formula.
Underrated: Rimmel eyeliner, Almay products and EOS also. Also anything by elf is really underrated!

If you have any eos just laying around, I suggest to use them as lip primers, thats one thing that they for sure work for likw it seriously prevents feathering ;)

Overrated: the EOS lip balms I hate them!

Jacqueline: yessss! Completely agree about the UD primer and spray. My eyeshadow creased to holy hell when I tried those two products; didn't even last an hour! I'll sick with my $1 e.l.f. primer that keeps my shadows in place for (literal) days.
Another overrated brand (in my opinion) is La Mer. They have a completely made up back story and really their formulas aren't that special. They charge an arm and a leg for what? A story? FAIL.

I find limecrime waaaay overrated. I mean with how crappy the "owner" is and all the scandals that have happened I don't know why people still buy from her. Plus the few products I've tried (eyeshadow, liner and lipstick) I really wasn't impressed, especially for the price. They seemed like cheap drugstore brands that make you pay more for pretty packaging.
I think Kat Von d's live is quite underrated. At least here, whenever I go to try or buy one of her products the sephora girls are always like "I'm sure you'd like ____ much better" without actually giving valid reasons. I mean her eye shadows are comparable (or better in my opinion) to UD and Mac. And her liquid lipsticks are to die for. But every time I mention her line around here I get told to try other things lol.

I like the Kat von d lipsticks A Lot!! liquid n reg..
I haven't tried the eyeshadow but its been on my list for quite awhile..
I actually like the one lime crime lipstick I have. n the pink velvet liquid lipstick but I havent been Able to purchase anything else since reading the full back story. hmm. so I passed on utopia eventho I was awaiting its release.

@Emily...I couldn't agree with you more about La Mer. But I do have to admit that their lip balm is tha bomb. Luckily I gifted one along with my MIL as I couldn't dare drop $50 on it myself. Not when I have a close dupe with my Lypsyl.
