I can't use Almay anywhere near my eyes. It's marketed for being hypoallergenic but it makes me want to tear my eyeballs out of their sockets. SOOO itchy! Shock

I realise as time goes by I've got more no-no brands sigh...

Now Decleor & SKII are no good for me too. These 2 brands are the only 2 brands to give me skin reactions such as redness, itching and hive-like swellings Mad

Clinique 3 step - none of it worked for me. And I never understand why it gets such a low rating here and on MUA but yet it seems to always win awards with Allure or In Style for Beauty Buys.

Weleda Skin Food - MUA had high ratings for this, but all it did was give me some awful horrible cysts. Took such a long time for my skin to calm down.

Oil of Olay - I always buy this line, but it never seems to work for me. Used moisturisers and my eyes just water even if I just surround the eye area.

Garnier - I used their moisturiser once. Big mistake! WAAAAY too fragranced. I could barely breath and my skin reacted to it.

Kinerase. I tried it and waited for it to work. I waited for anything to happen. Nada.

Retin-A.

The Maybelline mascara that comes in the pink tube. Smears under my eyes by lunch time.

I'll say to the whole set of products of Benefit.
I've tried couple of the skincare products. I could only say that they're useless! Sorry to say that! Sad

My derm says it either works well for you, or it doesn't do anything at all. I've tried it for several times but didn't see any difference. Some of her patients really like it. So it might work well for you.

Anna Sui Foundations and Concealers ALL OF THEM
terrible terrible terrible quality! Although I must admit I was sold on the adorable packaging, but it was a huge mistake I made! Confused

Clinique Pore Minimizer Instant Perfector
sounded like a dream come true, 4.0/5.0 review from MUA, so I bought it. Not only it didn't make my pores look any smaller, it broke me out like no other product had

my no-no list is Creme De La Mer, it is an okay moisturizer. It hydrated my skin, but beside that, I didn't see any difference on my skin when I used La Mer. The cream is too thick for me; it clogged pores.I'm so glad I tried the sample first,I don't think I will buy it

Paula's choice moisturizers--- too many silicones and it leaves a film on my face. But lots of people love them.

No skin care products from the mall (estee lauder, lancome, etc.) They smell good but no effect.

No perricone either - overpriced!

Why no to Nuface, Kassy? Was it just ineffective or did it actually cause problems?
