I Swear These Beauty Products Changed Their Formulas…….
Have you ever loved a lipstick or an eyeliner or a moisturizer so much that you felt the need to stock up on it? Don’t worry! You aren’t alone! I’ve totally had moments where I’ve hoarded away some fragrance, skincare, or even a MAC Pigment or two that I loved. I think some of the psychology behind this is the fear it’ll be discontinued but another fear is that the formula will change. I’ve seen this happen time and time again! I’ll fallen in with something, use it to the very last drop, re-purchase again and again but there comes a point when it feels like the formula changed.
Here’s some beauty products that I swear changed their formulas.
I have said for years now that Urban Decay Primer Potion has changed. It’s very obvious now but when I was preaching about the change it was 2011 which means we couldn’t even blame L’Oreal for the change! I’ve used Primer Potion religiously since the launch but I feel like it hasn’t been the same in many, many years now. It just doesn’t apply as well as it did, it doesn’t lock eyeshadow the way it used too, the formula, the consistency, the texture, it all feels different to me!
Another UD fan favorite that I am convinced have changed for the worst at Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeliners. Perversion used to be my biggest HG (holy grail) eyeliner! It was creamy, smooth, it applied like melted butter…! Now it’s dry, skips, and doesn’t have the same intense black pigment as it once did.
Another big one for me is It Cosmetics Bye Bye Concealer! Remember they relaunched it about two years ago with a MASSIVE array of shades? I’m convinced the formula is different! Not as thick, not as emollient, a little weirder on the blend…!
And finally, Tarte Shape Tape Concealer! Still my very favorite product but I feel like the formula was super creamy when they originally launched it! Now it feels a touch drier! I recall finishing up my first tube and purchasing another one I instantly noticed that the formula was a bit drier and a lot less creamy! It’s still a favorite of mine but I’m convinced the formula changed!
What are some beauty items that you’re convinced changed their formulas?
