Sometimes You Just Can't Make It Work
Just because your best friend, mom or hundreds of reviewers on a website say a product is good doesn't mean it will work for you. I test a lot of products for my job and it doesn't matter how much I want to like something -- if it doesn't work for me, I stop using it. That means I either toss it or give it to a friend to keep myself from reusing it in three months, when the memory of my skin's bad reaction has dimmed.
This is why speaking to a beauty advisor before purchasing helps; they can help you identify whether it's right for your skin type. If you're an online shopper, many websites offer live chats where you can talk to an expert while you shop. And if you're product-obsessed, plan to do a purge at the start of every season. You'll cut down on clutter, simplify your routine and make space for a whole new batch of beauty buys.
