How are you all? I hope the lockdown is treating you well, and you all are safe. It’s been a quite long time I haven’t written anything about beauty products! So here I am penning down the beauty products I regret buying and yes they have amazing reviews on the sites selling them!
Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair
I purchased it looking at the comments and reviews on the website about the product, but I regret buying it and spending INR 3900 on a 20 ml bottle! I am not saying that this product is not good, but it definitely did not suit my skin. (I will sharing a detailed review about this product soon)
My Skin Type: Normal to Dry
+PROS:
- Lightweight
- Not Oily
- Fragrance-Free
- Luxurious feeling (packaging + branding + application + hype + price)
-CONS
- No Noticeable Improvements
- Highly Priced
- Not at all Hydrating
Price: INR 1250 for 7ml || INR 3900 for 20ml

Australis All That Glitters Palette -Dazzle Me
This is the worst buy ever! I was expecting this to be beautiful glittery high pigmented eye shadow palette. I was lucky enough that I purchased this in an offer on HOK makeups.
My Skin Type: Normal to Dry
+PROS:
- There are no Pros for this product.
-CONS
- Powdery texture
- Not at all pigmented
- Very chunky and big glitters
Price: INR 1350 || I got this in an offer and cost me 675

Absolute New York Double Trouble
I am a bold Kohl and winged liner person. I do not step out of my house without it, and yes, I don’t mind spending much amount on the right product. I was scrolling on some shopping site, and I saw this product. It was love at first sight. I was totally in love with the beautiful vintage packaging, brand claims, the shape of the brush, make of the pen, etc. It was a total Go-To liner for me, and within a few minutes, I purchased it! But I feel so bad about this one! The tool is excellent, but the product isn’t! I had very high expectations with this one!
My Skin Type: Normal to Dry
+PROS:
- Provides ultra-fine precision
- Gives dramatic definition to your eyes
- Both the brush are perfect!
-CONS
- It is neither water-resistant nor long-lasting
- Not budge-proof
- Not smudge-proof
- If you try to double coat it, the brush removes the previously applied liner too!
Price: INR 925

Wella Professional Luminous Oil Reflections Smoothening Oil
I have always been a fan of shampoos from Wella, and on that basis, I purchased this product from one of the local departmental stores in my city! Trust me whenever I see this bottle I see money going down the drain! HIGHLY DISAPPOINTED 😣
My Hair Type: Dry and Frizzy
+PROS:
- The packaging is super-premium
-CONS
- It didn’t do anything to my hair which the brand claims!
Price: INR 1100
Nikohlife’s Score 1/5
L’oreal XTENSO CARE Shampoo & Masque
I purchased this product to eliminate excessive dryness and to add extra volume, which even the brand claims! It didn’t suit me, my hair fall started, and the hair was the same as before dry and frizzy.
My Hair Type: Dry and Frizzy
+PROS:
- It has a fantastic smell.
-CONS
- It didn’t do wonders to my hair.
- Did not eliminate any dryness or frizzy
Price: Shampoo INR 530 | Masque INR 630

Interesting to read your reviews about the night cream!
