Is there a makeup brand you’ve tried but never have good luck with?

Beautiful with Brains says: Deborah. It’s an Italian drugstore brand but, despite trying lots of their products throughout the years, nothing has ever impressed me. Everything seems to be sheer and powdery. Some of their lipsticks are nice but not better than most lipsticks on the market. I should just stop buying their products, but every now and then something catches my eye and I hope this time I’ll have better luck.
