What's going on guys welcome back to my channel today. We're doing a video all about
The worst Drugstore products I have ever tried most of these products like I genuinely tried
To like as you would with any products that you you know you try to make it work when you spend your della
Della Bills on it
but I'm just telling you right now these products are one not worth your money to
Not even worth trying for the most part and three just things that I really felt
Dumb did me dirty so you guys know I've been doing my drug the series
I'm so happy that you guys have been liking it and I'm going to continue doing lots more drugstore videos
So make sure to hit that subscribe button if you are new to my channel if you want to seal up more dru upload
Videos for me then let's go ahead and get solid now obviously first off first and foremost
I have to tell you guys a little disclaimer if I say something that you know didn't work for me
If I name a product that didn't work for me
and you
Loved it with all of your heart obviously keep doing it. You know you do you some stuff
That doesn't work for me may work for you guys, and that's okay
That's why there are so many different products in the world
You know what I mean
So we're going to get in with one product that I just like I almost have nightmares about it
You know like thinking back on it. I just kind of shiver, and it's actually from a brand that
I personally really really really love like there are so many of my holy grail drugstore products from this brand
And it is nyx, but I just I'm gonna lay it down for you guys
I'm going to lay it down real nice and honest this powder is like my worst nightmare for
One reason or another so basically, so this is the nyx HD studio photogenic
Finishing powder now first off the Powder itself is very thin do you see it's like literally just coming out of this
But it's buffle as soon as I open the cap, but even further than that like I'm telling you guys
It's such a thin powder which already also that I know that my personal preference. I don't like thin powders like this
I like it to have like a little bit thick of wow
I can't really talk today
but I like it to have a little bit more thickness a little bit more grit like something like the Laura Mercier Powder or the
Cody err sun those have a little bit more grit to them so you can bake a lot easier with them
Always like this already like I don't love just because of the texture you know everybody has their own
Preferred textures to work with and this is definitely not mine, but even further than that
I did really try to use it to love it to try it out for you guys
And I try to work with it, and when I use this I kid you not I look like casper
The friendly ghost underneath my eyes it has the worst flashback. I've ever seen like I've literally never seen
Another powder with this bad a flashback like it almost looked like it has flashback even when I didn't wasn't using flash photography
Which I don't understand how that was happening
but I would take a picture like on my phone or you know on wherever like on a
Camera with no flash, and I kid you not it would have white underneath my eyes. I don't know
It doesn't make sense to me
I
tried it out two or three times to make sure it was that and not like the concealer or the foundation or something else and
I'm telling you it was this so I don't recommend this um
Like it says. There's so many products from nyx that I genuinely like but I just like for me. There's no go and I
Got something stuck in my throat, but I'm actually one of my friends Kyra. I'll see you
She tried this out or when I had said that on snapchat like that whole little story
And when I did when I talked about she was like dude legit that powder did the same thing on me
So I don't know if it was just for us or what but it's it's no bueno for me
Okay
Next product that I really don't like this products from wet and wild so this is a when 12 mega impact Mascara again
What about a great brand that I like a lot because they are one of the more affordable drugstore brands?
But this product particularly is so horrendous
For me so first off
I actually have high hopes for this because I like the wand like I liked how it looked when I first took it out and
I was like okay
well
We see where while we see with that Bristle wand like I love I love
Wands like this that are very fat and thick and I can give you a lot of volume
but let me tell you this is the
driest Mascara I have ever used in my lifetime like I don't even
Understand how dry it was was so it was so dry that I?
Almost thought. It was like a mistake like I thought I had gotten one
That was like a lemon so I went back and I repurchase it a second time and same thing like
It just it slides over my head. I don't understand how it's so dry like watch when I put it on my
How is that possible like literally?
do you see this like I'm literally rubbing so hard and
Like nothing comes out of the - of the tube or like off of the wand I just I don't understand how
Anybody would be able to work with this Mascara honestly because it is so dry it just kind of like flakes off
No product comes off. It's just a strange strange strange formula for me
In general I do like more wet Mascaras, and I have heard some people say that they like a drier formula
But I mean girl or boy you know honey
This ain't going to work for I don't think this is going to work very easily for anybody
So not really a Mascara. I would recommend especially because there are so many
Drugstore Mascaras that are bomb calm
You know me like I feel like mascaras are definitely one of the strong suits that the drugstore has so
Go for the Maybelline big shot go for the L'oreal voluminous. Go for you know carbon block
I think that's the same thing as the L'oreal voluminous, but yeah
Just in general like I feel like the drugstore has a lot of great Mascara so go for one of those
Next product that I want to talk about honestly
I know that I'm going to get like a lot of hate for this because I've talked about it before and I've talked about how
I don't like it. I've talked about that before in videos and
Basically everyone's just like no you're not using a rhino you're doing this you're not doing this you're not doing this but at the end
of the day, I
Personally still do not like this product and again a brand that
I really love obviously all these brands there are hits and misses for me like there's obviously going to be products that I absolutely
Love that I can live and die and breathe for and then there's going to be products that like I personally
Find very difficult to work with and this is one of those products from Elf. So this is their baked highlighter
I know this comes in three shades, and I used to hear so many good things about this particular product
It is specifically this shade and honestly in the pan
I think it does look really really beautiful like as the lights kind of shining off of it
It just looks like it's going to be beautiful
You know what I mean
But I'm telling you guys like there is
barely any pigment that comes off of this especially when you're using a brush I find that when I
Apply to the cheeks, and you know I like alone the highlight
So I may be a little bit biased because I really like a creamy formula
When I use it like I get nothing on my cheeks
And you know like I had said before people are always like you know you're using it wrong
You have to scrape it off you have to get to the inside you have to wet it
I've tried wetting it and it does nothing. I've tried scraping a little bit off, and it literally does nothing you guys like I?
Just feel again
why would I continue to use something that all of a Sudden like I'm
Using wrong or like I have to do all these things too when there are so many other highlights that are bomb
That are still affordable
You know I mean like I just feel like your money would be better spent on either other Elf products
That is does not include this highlighter like their blush palette is awesome or a highlighter
That is actually good like maybe I don't know the wet and wild ones are awesome. The Milani ones are great
Pixie beauties a spin over art collaboration was amazing. So there definitely are like
Options for highlighter from the Drugstore oh my God you have side no, I'm sorry. I'm getting very very distracted. Did you see this?
Why don't I just bring it up right now?
I've got a little giveaway for you guys in this video um I was going to save it to the end
But I feel like you're already is kind of like solo PPthere
So I'm going to be giving away another one of the Jacqueline hill more few pillows
and all you have to do to enter to win this giveaway is be subscribed to my channel give this video a thumbs up and
comment down below
your worst drugstore product experience or the worst drugstore product in your opinion that you've tried because
Girls, we don't get them today alter and when I say girl, you know that's you know. It's just a phrase for me
You know what?
I mean like I'm not actually saying that makeup is just for girls because it is definitely
Not makeup is definitely just for anyone and everybody who wants to
We're an experiment and get creative. Okay you guys I'm going way off topic. It's like a 9:00 p.m.
Right now and I'm usually asleep by now, so I'm like I'm wired up right now
But what I was gonna say was this is an amazing drugstore highlighter my friend Madison
we did like a little collab and she had the la girl strobe light strobing Powders and
she showed me them and
They are pigmented. I really really really really love this formula
So anyways side notes on the giveaway for this video side note on the highlighter that I do recommend
Let's get back to the products that I do not recommend
So I have a product from Minami next and it is this guy right here
This is a little bit of an older product
I don't actually know if they still make it, but if they do I want to tell you guys right now
do not spend you spend you yes do not send you do not spend your
hard-earned money on this because honestly I just I just
Just a confusing product for me honestly, so this is the Milani
Fierce sorry Milani Milan Fierce Spoil eyes shine so basically this is supposed to be a
Foiled eyeshadow, but let me just show you the formula. I mean, I just don't understand it. It's like
It's not a cream. It might look like a cream on camera
but honestly
It's not like it's almost like
They took a lip gloss and like trying to put it
Into an eyeshadow, and it looks pretty when you swatch it and we'll put that out there
But the thing is you know what this reminds me of it reminds me of when you're like a little kid
And you have those like makeup palettes that are just you know probably terrible and like not great
ingredients and whatever
and
There's like those lip glosses
That are basically just do like they literally are do in like a little pan that is kind of what this reminds me of for
some reason
and I just feel like if you're going for an eye shadow like I've tried to use this several times and it just
Creases so badly because like I said it's not a cream. It doesn't set down
it's actually like a glossy formula for some reason and it creases like
No
Other and if I'm going for a foiled eyeshadow like I feel like there are other affordable
options out there that are bomb you know like
I'm trying to give you guys affordable options here
You know for all everything that I'm saying is that I'm trying to like give you guys some options that are actually good
But the makeup geek foiled shadows are amazing. They're like six dollars. I think which is honestly pretty affordable um
also Key
Maybelline color Tattoo range is really good, and you're going to get kind of the same vibe of effect
You know what I mean, but yeah, I do not recommend these because just the texture itself is weird
It's kind of hard to tell you guys or to show you the texture because it looks pretty
I you know. I know it looks pretty here, but trust trust me on this. It's going to crease really badly and
We don't want that for my rock stars. Okay? Let's move on to Liddy's because I feel like we can all kind of agree on
What's a good and bad lip?
product you know I
actually, you know I stand corrected because
this particular product I have heard so many people rave on and on about and whenever I try to use it is just
And genuinely like I do hate saying that because again. I love this brand
I'm not trying to be negative nancy over here, but just try to keep it real with you guys um
But these liquid lipsticks from Milani now
I cannot even count how many times I've heard people
Rave on on about how good the formula is and I'm telling you whenever I've tried to use it
I don't know if it's user error if I'm just like layering on too much product or what's happening?
But whenever I have tried to use any shade, but particularly this one which is called crave
Which is actually my favorite shade out of the whole collection
I think that the collection is beautiful like the color range
But whenever I have tried to use it my lips
Just get so crusty like it's like the krusty krab in here for all you Spongebob lovers like me
I'm not joking like I've never felt my lips so dry as when I wear this like I literally feel like a dinosaur or something
And I'm telling you like I love the color love love-love-love. Lo it. Just sucks because I wish I could wear it because
Hello, Summer, okay, but I'm telling you like whenever it dries down especially on the darker Shades as well
they get
Like I can't even explain it like literally starts like peel off of my list
Because it's so crusty and like I just feel like that's not you know. That's not really cute
I don't really want to be walked around with like crusty lips like that
Um but like I said the color range is really nice honestly
I just I really don't like the formula
Let me know honestly down below if you guys have tried these and what you guys think because I'm not even kidding you like how
many people have
Talked about these and have just raved about them and been like they're the best liquid lipsticks at the drugstore blah blah blah
and I'm just like
what am I doing wrong like what is happening to my lips that is not happening to everybody else's because
I've I've been joking like I I need to go on Snapchat one day and like just put them on put one on and like
Show you guys because I'm like literally not kidding. It will like rust off. It's a whole thing on its own
I don't even know about that
There's one other lip collection that I don't really recommend to you guys and it is this from
Jordana which honestly Jordana like I feel like they're a pretty underrated brand they have a lot of cool products that I think are
definitely worth your money, but these
Particularly, I don't like because I'm just not a huge fan of like
Crayons and stuff like this like I feel like if I want a lipstick
Then I'll go with a lipstick if I want more like a lip balm
Then I would go with a lip balm like I don't want it to be like Halfway in the middle
Almost and these particularly because I don't find them to be that moisturizing
they're actually very very very sheer on me like you literally get no color payoff like that's pretty much as
Good as it's going to get for you, and I just feel like it's not that moisturizing on me
And you know I don't know if it's just me because all these lip products that I'm mentioning that I don't like
That's like the complaint that I'm seeing a common trend in is that it's drying or it's not moisturizing
Whatever, but honestly, I don't have like extremely dry lips. I drink so much water
I drink like I drink like 3 to 4 liters of water a day ask anybody
I know ask you Sonya ask Kyra ask like literally any of my friends
Tweet them message them Dm them ask Jess
Whatever. They will tell you that I am like a crazy person when it comes to water and so that's why I like always confuse
when
These lip parts, especially beads because they literally are called the twist and shine
Moisturizing balm stain that's literally in the name that switching moisturizing
And I feel like it drives my lips out so I don't really get it
These definitely don't work for me
I never reach for them never never never
And I don't really recommend them even if you are looking for like a tinted balm
Stain sort of thing I would personally just go with like a tinted lip balm like you know for speeds has them
Maybelline has them in the baby lips they have like tons of different ones now
So not something that I would recommend and another product. I like I swear
I'm not trying to pick on like specific brand or anything
But another product from nyx you guys know I said it already
I do like nyx a lot
But this is another product that these are the only two products that I really really dislike from nyx and everything else
I feel is like pretty solid but this concealer. I am telling you
I have never seen such a dry concealer in my lifetime like let me just let me just
try to dig some out with my nail because there's no other way to get it, but like
when I
Like I can't even like it's hard for me to even swatch this one honestly
But when I rub it out it like feels like it's going to be oily at first
First impression that's what I thought. I thought it was going to be a very oily concealer
And I thought it was going to crease then for some reason or another
When you blend it out like when you continue to blend I am telling you it is the most dry and concealer
I have ever used in my life, and I'm just like what is happening like I don't have dry skin
I have oily skin. I drink a lot of water my lips aren't dry
Why are all these products, so you owe me like?
I just literally don't even comprehend it
But nonetheless this concealer is definitely not something. I would recommend for under the eyes. I have used it before
As a brow bone highlight or like to clean up the brows and it's actually okay for that to be completely honest
so if you have this and you don't like this um
maybe use it for that because I find that it works okay for that honestly because since the
Texture is like a little bit more a little like thicker almost it
Actually does kind of set the brows or like set the area around the brows nice, but under the eyes
There that's a note for me even on like acne on pimples and breakouts. I don't like it because I like to
Kind of treat those areas with a little bit more hydration. Just because then they won't like flake off
They won't get like those weird dry patches so ya don't really recommend
But if you already have it try it on the brow bone, and hopefully that helps you use it up alrighty
so you've got a few more products to get through the next one being one that I've actually already talked about in my
Worst Drugstore foundations or best and worst Drugstore foundations if you haven't seen that you can check that out
I just talked about my best foundation or like the best foundations for me and the worst foundations and this one
Definitely fell into the worst category for me, so it is from Elf
I could never find the actual name of the foundation because it's actually not on the bottle I do love the packaging I will put
Out out there
I think that elf actually did a really nice job with this packaging because I like it when it's like basic and clean like this
but
Let me just get into the foundation. So I like I said I had talked about this already in my foundations video
So if you already seen that you kinda already know my sauce
But it was strange because this foundation like at first. It looks like it's going to be very full coverage
to me at least and it has with a creamy finish, but when you're blending out it like almost sheers out to
Nothing when I had on my face. It was like
Like a literal like it was less than a BB cream for me and in general
I already like more full coverage foundations or at least medium coverage like I do tend to lean
Towards the Fuller covers the medium to full whatever so that in itself wasn't a great start for me
But on top of that it actually creased so horribly on me, and it was just like a hot mess honestly
I really really really really did not like this foundation. The one good thing about it. It didn't have flash back
I just try it with flash photography, and it did not have flash backs
But other than that it was not easy to wear it wasn't long wearing it wasn't
enough coverage for my preference and just in general
Not a good pick in my opinion, especially again
There's so many good drugstore foundations there and definitely you can find something
That is like on a budge like sorry what am I even saying that is exactly what you're looking for on a budget?
You know I mean there's so many duke videos out there
So definitely go for something else not for this guy in my opinion and okay
so this next product is again like something that I feel there are already so many good drugs or options and
This is just like not one of them
I've never even really heard of this brand to be honest, but I got it when I used to live in Vancouver and
There was this little store in Metro town, and I forget what it was called now
But I went in there one day
and I saw this and I was like oh that actually looks really nice like it looks like it could be kind of like a
dupe for higher-end
contouring Palette
Mm-Hmm it is
So so crazy like I can't even I almost don't even know where to start with this so first off
The the Shadows themselves looks like they're going to be pigmented when you start to blend it blend them out again
It's like very patchy it almost them blends out to nothing and it doesn't even look like you apply contour
which is like a little strange, but
even Beyond that I feel like the shade range is
Not great honestly. It does come with like four different highlighters
and then like three
contours if you can even call this one a contour which I mean yes, if you're very very very fair, but
even for my skin tone
This was like a little bit light like even the darkest shade over here
Was too light for me pretty much and that may be the formula that I just blended out so well that I couldn't
See it anymore
but if you are any darker than me this would be a
complete waste of money because it is just it's not dark enough like they don't have enough options for
Darker Skin Tones and Deeper Skin Tones
So I just like I just would not without bother with this nyx has an amazing contour palette at the drugstore
I definitely go for that one over this one if you ever see this again. I don't even know where they sell La colors, but
Try to avoid it. Okay. The last product is a brow product you guys know I'm already like pretty picky with brow products in general
And this particular wire was so difficult for me to work with so this is the Elf cosmetics brow pencil
I know, there's quite a few Elf products. Well. There's three
Honestly, I really do love Elf and I think they're an amazing brand especially for the price point
They're definitely one of the more affordable brands at the drugstore, but these products specifically
And you know this one specifically just like did not work for me um so like I said
This is the brow pencil. I did like that it came with a spoolie on one end
I think that's definitely a plus
I think honestly elf is kind of stepping it up with their own packaging game
but the actual pencil itself let me just tell you it is so
difficult for me particularly
But I think for a lot of people to work with brow pencils when they are this thick like I don't know if you can
See how thick that is but I'm telling you. Oh my gosh. I literally have like setting powder everywhere. I have lipstick here
I'm a mess. I'm a mess you get the picture it is a thick pencil
if you want to call it even a pencil like I feel like it's
Double the size of like a brow is or even the maybelline brow pencils the loreal brow pencils like those are probably
half the size in
Diameter diameter or radius the radius is half the size of this, okay?
so first off
It's very difficult to work with because as soon as you start applying it you get a thick
Line and especially when you get to the tail ends like you want to be very light handed with your brow product
Especially it's for like for most people. I would say they kind of taper down you know on the ends
This is so difficult to get that paper because it just applies so much product right away the color
I do like I think that it is actually a very nice cool
Tone Brown to work with for my brow color or whatever like for my brows
But I will say that it's clearly just the formula that I didn't like I don't like the size of the pencil I
Feel like the actual formula is very chunky so like when you're applying
It almost like little chunks get caught in my hair in my brow hair
I mean, and it just looks kind of crazy. You know like it doesn't look smooth. It does not look natural
It doesn't look like hairs because you can't create hair like strokes because it's just so thick that it's like very very very very very
Difficult to work with okay that is it for this video
That is or those are all the drugstore products that like really have not worked for me, and I'm telling you guys
I'm not just trying to be negative here like I have actually tried to use these products several several several times over and just have
Found that, they're hopeless for me um comment down below if you have any of these products
And you know how to use them because maybe it is user error like I'm telling you I've seen
So many people raving about these, and I'm just like what am I doing wrong whether I look can you see that one?
I'm like cresting off on the side
That's why I was talking more. I can't I don't know why that happens
But that is going to be it for this video. I hope you guys enjoyed and you know
Some some products that aren't really interviewer to me. I know they're drugstore
I know they're affordable, but honestly I don't feel like these products are worth the money
I don't want you guys to waste your money and
Those are just my thoughts
so hope you guys liked the video give it a thumbs up if you did let's try to get this video to
5,000 thumbs ups. I don't know if asking me possible honestly, but
Let's try it out
Let's try it out and don't forget to enter be
Jaclyn Hill a more solid giveaway if you want to win the palette I did actually use it today. I've been using a lot
