If you had to throw away one item from your beauty stash, what would it be?C’mon, only one!
.
Oh, that’s easy for me, LOL. I’d toss a foundation that I didn’t wear any more. I know I’ve got at least a few hanging around.
Thanks to Samantha for this question!
The new Almondine lipglass I bought without seeing the Spring Color forecast collection. I wish I had waited. I have to use litterally NONE of it and spread it all over just to make it wearable. But fortunately I find lipglasses very moisturizing in the winter! I'll find a use!
wet n' wild liquid eyeliner! I've used it twice, and it's the worst liquid eyeliner I've ever tried. It has a sticky texture and it flakes quickly! Hmm maybe I just got an old one?? Regardless... I don't know why I haven't already thrown it away
all my lip gloss - none of it has ever been used. i don't even know why i bought it LOL
Rimmel Sexy Curves mascara (water-proof) It IS horrible: does nothing and smells weird.
probably a mascara tube...but it would have to be one i didnt spend a lot of money on, otherwise i'd feel bad.
L.A. Colors eyeshadow palette I never wear..
a nailpolish
My loreal hip duos. Complete crap.
probably a chapstick....
I gave all my lipglosses to my 7-year-old cousin hahaha they were Lancome's Juicy Tubes & Victoria's Secret Glosses... I just never used them... And I had a MAC Lipglass, I don't remember the name but it was green or mint-green! It was awful! I don't know why I bought it! LOL! So, I had 5 empty products for Back-2-MAC and I added that Lipglass to get Shy Girl! haha
Bobbi Brown oil free foundation. I hate it with a fiery passion, but do I force myself to use the whole bottle, or throw $50 to the wind? Grrrrrrrrrrr.
MAC Dear Cupcake eyeshadow. Now that I've gotten Rubenesque Paint Pot the color pay off is better, but you do have to pack it on.
My goopy Buxom lashliner! I hate it.
Some random lipgloss by Stila..its soooo horrible,its way to sticky and when ever i put the little wand back in the tube a bunch of lipgloss just spills out..i really hate it -__-
Probably be one of the cheap drugstore eyeshadows I got on sale. Blehh they can have them all in fact!
This is so hard Christine... I can't throw anything out; I am such a junkie. Maybe my Maybelline Lash Stiletto mascara, which is half used because I hate it so much.
My Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse foundation. No matter how I apply it, I hate the texture. Plus, despite being the lightest color, it's still slightly too dark for me. :P
My Rimmel translucent pressed powder. I tried using it again a few weeks back and it looked just as horrible as I remembered. My Bobby brown under eye concealer. I've had it for probably long enough for it to expire, and I never feel like it actually is opaque enough to make a visible difference. Usually I just do another layer of my MAC Studiofix foundation. My NARS Night Fairy eyeshadow-I LOVE the color in the palette, but the texture/pigmentation is SO awful I have looked at all the other NARS colors with skepticism. Though that's probably better for my pocketbook. That said, I likely will never throw any of the above away, while I still think I "could" decide to use them. I am a pack rat.
My three Prestige glitter liquid liners. I don't know what their definition of glitter is because there is none.
All my bare escentuals stuff. I hate it, it makes my face itchy and looks like craaaaaap!
A Chanel serum that I got for free when I worked there. I haven't used it in 2 years but I can't bring myself to throw it away because it costs like $80 in the store and I'd feel guilty wasting it.
A foundation which really isn't my color, easy ;)
Mac Surreal eyeshadow. I just can't do anything with it! But instead of chucking it, I'd just Back2Mac it ;)
Either blue green mac pigment, ive never used it and never will (its not a full size, its came with a pigment holiday set) or my plushglash in pretty plush. I don't like the mixture of vanilla and plumper, its seriously freaks me out! (that is my one and only plushglass), its a bit upsetting though because i think the color is just darling.
I could easily name twenty, but I'm going to challenge myself and stick to MAC products. It would definitely have to be Virgin Kiss lipglass (Rose Romance collection), which I now know is the one thing from that collection you advised people to skip, and for good reason! I don't have a problem with the colour, but I can't stand how chunky and obvious the glitter is! Plus, whenever I wear it I end up with horrible glitter residue on my lips for hours after I take it off. Of course, I feel obligated to wear it since it was kind of expensive.
mascara.. i know there are a couple in my stash that have to be more than 6 months old!
Just one thing? I have loads of stuff that I don't even know why I bought, but still keep, although I've been trying to sell some of the high end ones on eBay or swap them. But there are many drugstore eyeshadows that I would throw out in a flash, and also some cheap brushes I never use since I've got my GOSH brushes. Hm, maybe I should actually chuck them out instead of keeping them, lol.
Tough question! I should probably throw out my old blusher from 10 yrs ago! Ooops!
One MAC lipgloss that I've been using for 2 years now....... it's yakkie, I know, but love the color so much....
Chanel's Beaute Initiale. It made my skin so dry, I don't know where to start.
foundation or concealer! hideous thing that ALWAYS make me look either awful or awesome! LOL
covergirl last blast! does absolutely nothing for me.
Lisa, you can throw that overhere...it works great for me!
All my Laneige skincare! The stuffs are just blah!
a moisturizer that has been sitting in my drawer for a month...
a sephora concealer that's too dark for me.
My pressed powder from Majolica Majorca. Totally useless and impossible to work with!
Thanks Christine for asking my question! At first I intended it to be amongst your top 10 products (then if you just had had had to choose which one to get rid of which would it be?) But then again this gets all the MU lovers out there to do some spring cleaning =) =)
A lipgloss I got for free from Sephora. :>
All those drugstore foundations that just do not match!
I could stand to toss a lipgloss I haven't worn in a while
Probably a few old Red Earth eye liners that I haven't worn in years. Actually I think I'll throw those out now that I think about it. ;)
my prestige liquid eyeliner, i dont like it and i never use it.
my MAC Studio Tech foundation. its awful!!! im not a fan at all. that was an easy one!
MAC Cranberry eyeshadow. I just don't know what to do with it, at all.
You can throw that one my way, haha!
The Revlon matte blue I have sitting there for some reason. Used it once.
nail polish!...and old lipglosses...i have TONS of lipglosses that i havent used in ages n i never will use them
ridiculously old mascara. and seriously lipstick from the 1980s. i think my mom has a hoarding problem haha
it would be a chapstick that i dont like anymore.. lol.. but no i think it would be the jordana liquid eyeliner... it was a recommendation from a guru... smell like a marker ughh.
