Abrasive me, abrasive you - MAC’s Microfine Refinisher
If there’s something I love is an exfoliating scrub. So I’ll try them all out, sometimes the consequences are dire. One more step into desperately having perfect skin even if celebrities‘ skin is not that perfect most of the time.
There was a time when I really wanted to like the MAC Skincare line, I liked the minimalistic look and packaging, didn’t think the prices were outrageous and I really wanted to give it a go. My last purchase was the Microfine Refinisher, I really wanted to like it, it just seemed perfect for me and my regular MAC Make Up Artist raved so much about it that I decided I would try it after all.
Now again this was one of those things that I really wanted to work, don’t ask me why because some of the things that go through my mind don’t necessarily have to make any sense at all.
So I brought it home and although after usage it did leave my skin feeling quite smooth and soft, so I thought to myself that I had found new favorite product. However, the following day tragedy occurred, my forehead became a road map with hard bumps and extremely uneven and rough and also seemed to react a lot more to any kind of makeup product I applied on top.
I have yet to learn that I shouldn’t buy things for their popularity and ask for samples whenever I’m going to try something new, it would certainly make my cosmetics hunt a lot more enjoyable and less expendable. It’s just another one of those products that lies in my “You want it, you got it” bag.
