The 5 K-Beauty Products I Regret Buying
House of HUR$15.00- “These blushes lift your base quite a lot”
- “It just gets all kind of patchy and it doesn't layer well”▶ 1:38
- “This blush has a high percentage of a hydrating ampoule or essence and it looks really glowy and revitalizing on the skin”▶ 2:10
- “It has a really sheer watercolor, just dewy, hydrated look on the skin”▶ 2:20
- “The hydrating essence in this formula makes it such that it never looks dry on my dry skin”▶ 2:34
- “It's glowy, healthy, rejuvenated”▶ 2:40
- “I do like the way that it looks on the skin once you get it on”▶ 2:43
- “I found that when I mixed it in with some concealer on the back of my hand and then applied it on the face, it really didn't shift the base much at all”▶ 3:09
- “I think it is a blush product that is only going to work for a very specific kind of makeup wearer”▶ 4:04
Milk Touch$32.00- “I was a little disappointed maybe”▶ 4:26
- “I don't think it's a bad cushion, but it definitely didn't live up to the hype”▶ 4:29
- “To me, it is just a pretty mid average cushion”▶ 4:38
- “Does it look dry on the skin? No. It looks pretty good on my skin. It doesn't look dry. It doesn't cling to dry patches. It looks pretty natural”▶ 4:41
- “Is it glowy like the name implies and what it says in the branding? No. It's not really glowy at all”▶ 4:51
- “It just looks like a very natural sort of satin finish”▶ 4:58
- “It has a very light medium kind of finish, definitely on the lighter end of medium”▶ 5:29
- “Even if I layered it, you know, three to five times, it just looks the same. It's very strange”▶ 5:48
- “It is not a very versatile cushion”
- “It just doesn't stand out among the pack”
- “I definitely wouldn't repurchase a refill of this after I'm done with this one”▶ 6:21
- “Doesn't look dry on my dry skin, looks pretty natural. Even if you layer it up, it doesn't look cakey, which is great”
- “There is a pretty decent shade range with this as well. I believe there's 20 shades”▶ 6:35
- “Just a pretty underwhelming cushion in my opinion. Didn't live up to my expectations”
Laneige$25- “It can be kind of difficult to see how much powder you are applying”▶ 8:07
- “You can just come out with a plume of smoke if you accidentally do it too hard”▶ 8:38
- “I do think the idea of the packaging with this is really cool, definitely innovative”▶ 8:42
- “The performance of the powder, however, I don't love”▶ 8:48
- “I think it looks pretty matte, flat and drying on dry skin”
- “I don't think it looks the best”▶ 8:51
- “It's definitely not that smooth, blurring matte powder finish that you might get from some other matte powders”▶ 8:57
- “This is very much a flat matte and not the most flattering on dry skin”▶ 9:05
- “I think the powder performance just isn't that great for me”▶ 9:27
- “I really didn't like this brow mascara”
- “I think it disperses too much product. I think it's too pigmented and it is too difficult to use”▶ 10:05
- “If you get this somewhere where you don't want it to be, it is very difficult to remove it”▶ 10:11
- “It's kind of messy to use and I do end up getting it in places that I don't want it to be”▶ 10:39
- “It also applies pretty unevenly”▶ 10:58
- “It deposits the product in some areas more than others and it just looks really uneven”▶ 11:03
- “Even when you try and disperse it with a spoolie, it just doesn't want to budge. It ends up looking so uneven”▶ 11:19
- “I find this very, very not user-friendly and difficult to use”▶ 12:04
- “If you like a stronger brow or maybe you don't have a lot of brow hairs to begin with and therefore you need to deposit more product, I could see how that could be a positive for you”▶ 12:17
- “I unfortunately don't like this brow mascara”
ETUDE$14.40- “I really don't like the smell of it. It stinks. It has a very, very strong floral, talcum powder kind of smell. It's sweet, it's floral, it's sickly. Not good”▶ 14:08
- “If you're sensitive to fragrance or strong scents, I would avoid”▶ 14:21
- “I don't think the lip tint performs very well either”▶ 14:30
- “It comes off super easily. It will not last a meal. It is not fully transfer-proof”▶ 14:41
- “It does not do any of what it claims to do”▶ 14:51
- “It does that sort of old liquid lipstick effect where it makes your lips look really shriveled and dry”▶ 14:56
- “It doesn't feel comfortable to wear at all”▶ 15:05
- “This is one of the most drying lip tint formulas that I have tried”▶ 15:08
- “When I put this on, it makes my lips feel like I've just dunked them in a whole load of powder and it's just sucked all of the moisture out of my lips”▶ 15:15
- “The product longevity, the way it looks, none of that was impressive in my opinion, all pretty subpar”▶ 15:36
- “I really regret buying this”
- “I really don't think there's anything redeemable about this lip tint in my opinion”▶ 15:47
- “I just wouldn't recommend this one”
