I'm piggy-backing off the NC50 thread! Which products did you think you'd like but ended up being an absolute miss, waste of money, surprisingly terrible on your NC50 skin?? List the product and why it was not for you.
Foundations:
MUFE HD foundation (all the dark shades were..... just... wrong)
MAC Studio Fix Powder (in any shade, all very ashy)
MAC Studio Sculpt NC50/55 (The only time the term "Drekitude" will ever leave my lips. It looks grey on me)
MAC ProLongwear NC50 & MAC Studio Fix Fluid NC50 (too yellowy and too light)
MAC Matchmaster (8.0 & 8.5 were too orange, and 9.0 is too chocolate brown)
Powders:
Ben Nye Banana Powder lol (too artificial looking. I now use MAC MSF Medium Dark, Dark, or Comfort!)
Concealers:
Maybelline Fit Me Concealer 30 (It actually "ate through" the foundation on my face... Like anywhere I applied it, within a few minutes, it looked like I wiped away my makeup... terrible.)
MAC Select Cover NC50 (too pasty)
Highlighters:
MAC Glorify (too shimmery and too golden)
MAC Gold Deposit (same as above... waaay too glittery & obvious)
NARS Albatross (ashy and fake looking... I really wanted to love it, but I couldn't do it)
Lipstick:
MAC Siss (just not my go too... it is a bit too greige, but I can work with it)
