Two Products I won't repurchase! Dove & Mac

Hello all! Thought I'd do a couple more reviews today, but on products that I won't be buying again. I absolutely love both dove and mac, but these products just haven't worked very well with me. Let's have a look at the lipstick first.





Now don't get me wrong, the finish of this lipstick is perfect. It last ages and is so so hydrating, just like you'd expect from any mac lipstick, however I just chose the wrong colour. I bought this a couple of months back and because there's nowhere to buy mac in my town I got it online. I expected it to be a nudey pinky colour, however it's pretty much the exact same colour as my lips, making it more of a lip balm than anything. It adds slight colour, but nothing massive. I think next time I'm going to go down to Manchester or at least look at some reviews and swatches before buying a mac lipstick again.


Next is this Dove moisturiser. I got this in a set for christmas along with a shower creme thingy. I love dove but this moisturiser is just too heavy for me. It soaks in fairly quick, but to me it just feels quite sticky even 24 hours later. I asked my boyfriend to feel my arm and tell me to describe it and he said 'greasy'! Wouldn't go that far but it's definitely not my cup of tea. I'm all for body butter and thick moisturisers, I just like them to leave my skin smooth. I probably won't use the rest of it as I've got a couple more moisturisers lying around from christmas. 

Have any of you tried these products before? What do you think?

  1. The Mac lipstick looks a lot darker on the stick than on the lips, I can see how easily you bought the wrong shade!
