Stay FAR AWAY... Don't Waste Your Money on These BAD Makeup Products! 

Anyone else feel like buying makeup is like gambling sometimes lol 😅 that lipstick looks amazing on you and with the headband so cute!

There’s no makeup content I like better than worst of videos 😂

What I don't like about the Glossier mini palettes, is that there are three shades in a palette that fits four. Is that petty to be a little pissed off by that?

Don't pay over $20 for an urban decay palette. Point blank period. And if you have a giftcard, points, whatever - then go ahead and take the risk.

I got the wild greens at tj maxx and it satisfied my soft eyeshadow craving they’re not overly pigmented like an ABH modern renaissance shadow. loved to see it flop on social media so I could swoop in and get it for cheaper

Girl I hope these ads are paying all of your bills because two adds every 30 seconds is getting out of hand

This lipstick is YOUR SHADE! Looks great on you ❤

You look gorgeous! Also, "If you want eyeshadow that is like the Emporer's New Clothes" you should get this.... 😂

Lauren I've had a few beers at the time of starting this video but when I say I was crying because this was so funny. I WAS CRYING! haha Thank you for this! As always every time I prioritize watching your videos I'm happy for it! I hope you're having a great holiday break with your family!

Thank god someone else said it about the ND pastel palette. I was so disappointed with it. I'm a light skin tone and could hardly get most of the colors to show up and be vibrant. I had to dig into the shadows and pack them on to get any sort of payoff. I really should have returned it. Because I haven't touched it for the majority of the year. What a letdown.

I'm just glad I'm not the only person who hasn't been able to get elf concealer to work..UGH!!

But girl what IS the Lipstick!! 😂😂💄

😂 the hand soap review monologue….DYING😂 - ACTUAL demon - gets you in the shirt every f…..g time - we need new physics on this thing I choked on my own spit laughing so hard and rewatched 5x, then made my better half watch it 3x more w me while I ugly-laughed / couldn’t even explain what I’m showing him 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Nice to know someone else still holds shadows to a high standard. I am old fashion; I believe a shadow should perform effortlessly without needing a primer! When I saw Nars' climax palette online, I was immediately stoked. Paid a lot of money, & most of the shadows just don't last more than a few hours without running/creasing. Sure, they may work fine with a primer but I have countless shadows that do well entirely on their own. I now hold all shadows to the same standard. Back in my teens, we NEVER used primers; it didn't really exist.

totally agree about the natasha denona pastel palette, it was my worst beauty purchase this year for sure! I ended up taking some of the shades I liked and putting them in my other ND palettes and getting rid of the rest.

I love my wild greens palette! I usually never spend that much on eyeshadow, but it is exactly what I love. And fuzz is my favorite sparkly shade in the palette. I would never have spent full price on it, but it lives on my vanity.

I love my wild greens palette. I definitely wouldn't recommend paying more than $20ish for it. Got mine on sale and love it for an easy two Shadow no makeup make-up days.

I actually had good luck with the Hindash palette. I don’t use my fingers much and I think it blends with a brush really well. I agree that it is a unique product and therefore polarizing. Glad there is room for all of us! Happy Holidays!

Loving the grungy green and bright red! Merry Christmas Lauren!

you’re so honest and real i LOVE it. it’s so hard to find someone as real as you in the beauty community nowadays.

Thank you for this! About Mellow: you have to remember, the founder is trying to appeal to 12-14 year-olds which is evident in everything from the quality to the sentence structure contained within the website verbiage. Thanks for the heads-up about the Cloud body spray! I was about to look for it! I definitely don't want a watered down version, I appreciate your insight! :)

I loooove sassy festive Lauren!!!

Love the headband, you look like a renaissance princess 👸🏼

I get that awful milky gathering effect with so many lighter colored lipsticks and glosses. (Most recently the Fenty cream gloss in mauve wives 😩). So frustrating, especially, as you said, when you can’t feel it happening, but it’s so visible. I hate having to test our lip products at home before I feel confident wearing them to work.

I use the cloud body spray on my hair! It lasts longer on the hair rather than my clothes. Happy holidays Lauren!

Grateful that the youtube's algorithm suggested your video to me! You're my type of RU-vidr. Genuine reviews, lmao love the cussing! Instant sub!

That red lipstick you have on it’s like I can’t even explain so vibrant and yet works so well with your lewk I love !

I actually really like the Wild Greens palette... so much, in fact, that it's the palette I used for my wedding makeup in October.

The hand soap story was 😂hysterical. No ty to shooting acid soap, bahaha. Those cheek dews were horrible. They stayed sticky too, yuck. The abt face eye paints are so good.

You looked absolutely gorgeous as you roasted these products 😂 I loved the video and had a good time. Thank you!

"Let's talk shit about some makeup" immediate follow, I have found my community

I know people hate the Hindash palettes for a lot of reasons but I guess I love it for the same reasons and I appreciated how Hindash really promoted it so much on his channel, it taught me what his intention was with it. I have both and I really, really, really want the liquid blushes/highlighters (boytears) and I know his stuff is really pigmented in liquid form but kinda the opposite in the powder form. One of the things I’ve learned from watching beauty RU-vid frequently for the first time in my life over the past year or so @ age 30, peak mid millennial, is that there’s such a wide range of opinions on what “good formula” is and that there’s also this very distinct set of features that’s well liked on beauty RU-vid that’s not universal. I love that, though, because it gives me a frame of reference and when y’all review items and tell me why you don’t like them, I can make judgements on if they’re still likely to work for me. As someone who own Beautopsy and Monochromance, I was surprised with how much it was hated on RU-vid because I saved for them both at or very close to Launch and use them religiously, but it was an excellent learning experience for me in that regard! I love and appreciate the opinions, even when it’s “and I hate this thing you love,” because I love monochromance because of its very distinct difference from everything else I like. I enjoy the fact that it’s for that “color from within your skin” affect, and the fact that it’s beautifully designed for a very clean, sanitary, brush focused application. In any case, loving your content as always! I actually discovered your channel about a year ago first before other current beauty RU-vidrs and then found Angelica and more - but yall are my two faves for sheer variety and descriptive honesty. Keep being awesome!

I just saw a whole bunch of the Wild Greens AND the Glossier trios at TJ Maxx literally yesterday. Glossier at TJ Maxx! So weird.

The red of your headband & lippie is definitely *your* red. Wow, so pretty on you.

Oh God thank you! I thought I was the only one in the world who didn't like the elf camo concealer. Everybody else raved about it and I just couldn't make it work for me. I am light complected too and they looked very yellow on me and they just made my under eye area look like I just came from the crypt!

"Continue to not have it on your radar" LOOOL, so shady, I love it.

I can’t agree about the Pastel Palette. I loved how soft and ethereal it is. I have this and Lost in Los Angeles and I far prefer the ND palette because it’s so easy to wear:) I always love your videos and I loved the juxtaposition of the beautiful festive look while talking trash about 2022 makeup:) 😂

I got the Beautopsy from Hindash last year because it was so hyped, and I was sooo excited myself and then... I couldn't get any pigment on my light medium skin to show up other than the red shade...I returned it since I got it on Beautylish. I was very disappointed, especially since the whole appeal was that a painter ( I love painting myself ) came up with it. The ideas was phenomenal, the execution was another story. So I just couldn't bring myself to pick up anything else from Hindash, which is a shame, and this palette proves once again that this formula is just not for me.

I'm trying to be so good and not buying crap. I so appreciate videos like this! Thanks 😊

I got the milk cream bronzer less than a year ago and it already smells rancid. BTW, I got several cheap cream blushes from a cheaper brand at the same time and those are still beautiful

I always enjoy this type of video. It’s really helpful to learn what works/ doesn’t work and why.

Red & green is beautiful on you Lauren! Love the red lip on you girl!! Pumping out all this content!! Yesss

Everybody I knew raved about that Hindash palette but I stayed away because I just didn’t get the hype. Now all my friends want to give me their palettes and I’m still thinking, nope, not even for free.

Thank you for mentioning the wet n wild sticks. I bought a red one for an eyeshadow and it was awful. I felt stupid because I thought it must not be an eyeshadow at all because of how bad it was and that I had misunderstood.

Only a couple min in but already loving your advice I was look at the Natasha denona pastel was on the fence def not getting it. Thanks girl! Excited for the rest of the video and your favs!!

I love it when you talk shit about makeup! Merry Christmas Lauren.

love the lipstick headband combo!!! soooo gorgeous

I love you red and green festive look!!

Love that red headband on you! Makes you look very regal!

This look is goals, Lauren. I loveeeeee it

I just found your channel from Angie's and I'm so glad I did, I already know I'm gonna love it here 😁 this video is amazing, I love the realness of your reviews and I always find these really helpful!

Great to get honest clear opinions about things and Why they don't work or How they fail, etc... great work. Thank you 👍👍

I'm glad I'm not the only one that hated the pixi formula. It literally did not build-up, it disappeared with time, they were not true to color, I always got fall out (even with their mattes, which is odd) and they separated in my eye balls. It was awful.

Lauren, you look amazing in a red lip!

Physicians formula has an amazing water proof black liquid liner pen in a silver pen package. My favorite drug store liquid liner pen

You look gorgeous 😄 Red looks amazing on you and that sparkly green top!!

Okay ma'am. I died laughing as you crossed the description barrier when Sharpie came into play! Baaaaugh Haaaa, ha ha😂

29:40 WET N WILD MEGA SLIM SKINNY TIP LINER. Holy grail better than any other liner I’ve ever used imo. Not that easy to find anymore but if you can find it, snatch it up. I have super hooded eyes and my wing has to be so tight and that’s the only one that I don’t have to work so hard with.

Saw the thumbnail and had to comment on how epic your look is today! ❤

You’re breaking my heart with the wnw sticks!! I love them & the glittery ones from the peanuts collection are so nice!!

Love your honesty 🤍

Thank you for the heads up on the Glossier Jute palette! My TJ Maxx has a bunch of them in different shades - I saw Almond & remembered you liking it, but I wasn’t sure about jute. I’ll skip!!

Merry Christmas Lauren!!! You’re my top beauty RU-vidr. I love your content and your love for beauty that I have. ❤❤❤

Omg i thought i was losing my mind about the elf hydrating camo concealer. It does not last at all and it breaks up so bad on the skin. The blending and application was fun but that was about it lol. Went back to the regular camo

The handsoap debacle was hilarious!😂 In fact….the whole video was hilarious! I thoroughly enjoyed myself!

Love your look! The head band the lipstick 💄

this whole look is beautiful!

Ty so much for this. I loved it!

Hilarious video!! I love the MBM palette but I agree with everything you said about it. For me, those are benefits, if that makes sense. I love that it's very one-noted bc that is THE note that I want. Pastel and Retro Glam were disappointments.

I was so excited to try that hangover lip balm and I'm with you on this I hated it. I thought the smell was weird and I also thought the texture was weird

I think the best thing about the ND Pastel is the magnetic case lmao but she already got my money i’m going to keep using it lol even for crease shades to more colorful looks 😅

could you please do a handsoap (both regular and exfoliating, different textures etc) video and a hand lotion video. I am an aesop snob and need to not be. Id like some other things to try. Merry Christmas!!

You look stunning and I love your videos!!! You’re one of my favorite RU-vidrs but I have to admit that I love that chocolate lip balm lollll

I saw Ellis Brooklyn sending out PR of Vanilla Milk with the explicit instruction to not disclose as PR. If I had to guess that’s the positive reviews.

I adore the formula of that Too Faced Pillow Balm! The chocolate one is definitely... Different lol. I can get past the scent/flavor of it because the formula works so well for me. Personally I love the banana one but I'll use either flavor happily. I have 2 tubes of the banana and 1 of the chocolate. I keep them around for a dry-lip rescue procedure !

Omg Lauren!!!!😍 You look stunning!!!

That is the most perfect red that you are wearing. Stunning!!!

The Wild Greens palette could've been so much more. I just had to realize that the Urban Decay that made me fall in love with makeup is long gone. They haven't been the same since they were bought out and if I do decide to purchase from the brand, I know it's a toss up if that product will get returned, passed on, or used. It's sad to see a brand's sparkle fade like that.

Such a cute outfit and look!! ❤️💚🎄💚❤️

I came across this older video of yours I missed... How can you give reviews saying "Don't buy this" insuch a kind, sweet way, but we KNOW YOJ MEAN IT, Dont waste your money!!!!, I love your honest criticism, with your foot down...your foot has spoken & I agree you are spot on! I LOVE IT,your reviews are li,e no other! 🌷

I never like hairbands but that hairband is stunning on you loving it!

Beautiful Lauren!!!

I need to know what is on the eyes in this video ❤ it’s beautiful!!

I always appreciate your input on makeup, showing & explaining swatches. Thank you, Lauren! 💛

I’ve been eyeing the mini aethr palette. Good to know the darkest shade isn’t what it looks like in the pan

the design for the wild greens palette is so hideous, it gives middle school sketchbook in the worst way. i'm not surprised its doing poorly

I really appreciate this video because I was tempted by the pastel palette by Natasha denona

God, i wanted to love those icon multi sticks since I love the OG NYX jumbo eyeshadow pencils. Holy crap the WnW Multis were horrible. I bought 8 and threw away 8. You're right that they sucked on the eyes, the lips, anywhere.

I did not like ABH Nouveau. It was so gray and sheer and boring imo. Also I hate a palette where the deepest shade is a shimmer or satin.

Your description of the final item made me lol!

You're hilarious.. Love your commentary and reviews. Keep it coming

I love the essence liquid ink eyeliner! Ive never tried the ones you had, but I tried the liquid ink one in the waterproof version and I didnt like it, but their og is a favorite of mine

My lavender oden's eye liner was definitely dry and crumbly. I'm pretty disappointed in the Alice in wonderland palette from sigma. For a $55-60 palette I was expecting more bang for my buck. The Cheshire cat shade was not "ooh, shinny!"😍 it was oh...satin and so were a few others. 😒 Not really a brand I plan to buy from again after that.

The ELF concealer I honestly just use as a eye base on days when I’m not doing any big look, to just block out my blue veiny lids. I don’t like it on my under eyes either

Great video. You look gorgeous. Merry Christmas

Red just is the perfect colour. You look amazing!

OMG.. I just bought that wild green palette in TJMaxx. Was soooo hyped and soooo disappointed!! Weak pigment, very little glitter, dull. Want my $20 back.

I got the Natasha Denona palette as a gift and while I really enjoy mixing the solid pastels with colors from other palettes, the shimmery shades had a lot of glitter fallout and they’re not very pigmented. I was expecting a pop of yellow from limoncello, but it’s really just a messy white glitter. They need to step it up.

I bought the UD palette at TJ maxx last month for $17. Reminded me of the retro glam. There is one shade that feels like a shimmer topped still playing with it.

So I said this on a previous video, but Vanilla Milk smells exactly like the noodles my mom used to make for me as a child when I was sick and nauseous and needed to eat something. They were buttered noodles with cinnamon sugar & regular sugar and vanilla extract. I needed to gain weight when I was younger and sweet things helped with my nausea lol. I still didn’t buy it but it’s a highly specific scent to me that I totally get why people hate it. I might get the travel spray some day as a reminder of my childhood but I could always just make the noodles myself.
