Friday Flakes, Fab and Fails

I am going to share with you three products that fall into three categories for me Flake, Fab and Fail. I do my best to love all my products, but sometimes, geez, they just don't work out. And here we are.

Friday Flakes, Fab and Fails

I am going to share with you three products that fall into three categories for me Flake, Fab and Fail.
I do my best to love all my products, but sometimes, geez, they just don't work out. And here we are.



Flake

ELF TINTED MOISTURIZER SPF 20

I saw it and thought I would love it, but I didn't. I will say a little goes a long way with this, because it wouldn't go into my skin and it ended up looking streaky and patchy.

Fab

SEPHORA WATER PROOF JUMBO EYE PENCIL 12HR WEAR


This lil or Jumbo pencil has saved many eye shadows from the trash. I apply this to my lid and it gives life to any shade I apply to it. it give a nice white pearled base. I have a warning though. Don't blend it out with a swipe, I found that patting is best and sharpen before use, when it gets dry it can get patchy, but other than that it is a great base for the eyes or a inner eye brightener.

Fail

MERLOT GRAPE SEED EYE CREAM


As a kid, have you ever put glue all over your hand and peeled it off? Well, that is exactly what this looks like and feels like. Don't get me wrong I am no expert on eye creams, but aren't they supposed to moisturize the eye area? For me this was the exact opposite. I will say that it does reduce puffiness because it makes my under eye area so tight and dry that it enhances my fine lines and wrinkles in my eye area. I really wanted to like this, I have heard good things about it, but for me it just didn't.
