Makeup brands that aren’t worth the money

Christian Louboutin is a name everyone knows, but when it comes to beauty products, that may not be enough. Louboutin is a luxury brand and those luxury prices certainly extend to the company’s beauty products. A 0.23-ounce pot of eyeshadow, for example, retails for $50. If lipstick is more your jam, prepare to spend $90 per tube. That’s a hard pill to swallow, for sure. And, apparently, it’s not even worth it.

Makeup artist and YouTube personality Tati tested out the entire Christian Louboutin Beauty Spring 2017 collection on her channel and gave her honest feedback. Spoiler: it wasn’t great. “Mmm, no,” she said of the brand’s eyebrow pencil. Although she admitted that the liquid eyeliner was “not bad” after trying it, she didn’t feel it justified the $75 price. Likewise, she was a fan of the mascara, but also recognized that drugstore mascaras have worked just as well. In the end, she revealed, “I don’t think any of this is worth the price.” Save those dollars for another makeup brand.
