Hi everyone, today I’m re-testing my least favourite makeup of 2025 to see if any of these products deserve a second chance! Both drugstore and high-end makeup made the fail list! Disclaimer- makeup is personal and subjective, so this is simply my own opinion based on my experiences.
What were your worst products of 2025? Let us know!
Thanks for watching 💕
