ANTI HAUL: Makeup I won't purchase & my reasons why.
What is an anti haul?
Is basically telling people or in this case my readers, what I won't buy and my reasons why.
FYI: These are products or brands that I don't share any interest on, or that don't share my personal beliefs. These products may work for you, but may not work for me or vice-versa. This post has no intentions on disrespect anybody. All opinions are my own.
Being said that let's begin.
Kylie Cosmetics.
Okay, take your seat, get your snacks, cause I'm going to get shady af.
Every time someone asks me, why don't you have any Kylie cosmetics? or do you recommend them? I said listen you don't want to hear my answer cause Imma rant.
Why I don't support Kylie Cosmetics?
Well, I really do not care about any of the Kardashians, I think they know how to do business and that is it.
But the main reason why I don't support her brand is private labeling. What is a private label you ask?
Designating a product manufactured or packaged for sale under the name of the retailer rather than that of the manufacturer.
What does this really means?
Let's pretend I am a very well known idol or public figure, and I come up with the wonderful idea of creating my own makeup line, but I see that having my own manufacturer costs a lot of money, and all the process is a lot of work. Well, I discover the amazing private labeling world, and I get a manufacturer that does my makeup line for a very low price and all I have to do is put my name on their products to sell them. Surprised? Well sorry to break your bubble but that is what Kylie cosmetics is doing. Many brands to that, and do not get me wrong, but why pay $18 for a $5 worth product?
They have overpriced products, over that add the terrible customer service and that you basically have to fight to get any of her products.
I do not care about them, I don't think they are anything unique, and I am not going to spend the money that I earn working hard on something like her brand to make her richer.
Morphe.
Ahh, another private label brand. I just can't keep up with the fame behind the brand! Most of their products are way overpriced for what it really is. I am tired of beauty influencers trying to sell me a crappy makeup brush I can buy for a $1 on eBay for like $20, like really? Their palettes are so famous but are they really worth it? with shipping and taxes, they come up almost to $40, girl just save your money and buy a good palette at Ulta or Sephora.
Plus the damn discount code that works for nothing, like really 10%?. I prefer to spend my money on a good palette.

Tarte
Who is over the whole unicorn thing already? Me!
Don't get me wrong they are cute, but do we really need them? No, is not practical is just cute.
Why spend your money on makeup you won't use? Right?
Kat Von D
I really enjoy Kat Von D products, I think they are amazing, but this palette does not catch my attention. I think the color layout is kinda off.
BECCA
Really Becca? How many limited edition packaging/palettes we need of Champagne pop?
I am really tired of them trying to get the most juice out of their products by doing this limited edition series.
Storybook Cosmetics
Sorry but I really do not like these brushes, if I am going to buy brushes is because they are functional, not pretty or whatever. I haven't done my research about the brand, and honestly, I won't.
I am sure I have more products I won't buy but I will leave that for another anti haul. Before you go you should know I do my research before I buy most of my makeup so I won't regret it later.

Do your research, search for a review, how would it work with your skin type or skin color? is it worth it? Do I really need it?
Hope this post help you in any kind of way, and I will see you later :)
