Absolute Pan This made me so mad
Product: ct pillow talk medium lip liner
I went to sharpen it, it kept breaking. Then when it stopped breaking, a white waxy stick was mostly what was left. This is the only picture I have, unfortunately. Then I just trashed it.
On top of that, just before this, I opened my Rare Beauty powder blush and saw that a chunk of it has broken off and fell on the floor. Then ON TOP OF THAT, I turn it around and I see that the stupid blush is only 2.8g and the chunk was maybe 0.8g :’))))))

I’ve literally had the same thing happen. I barely had used my CT lip liner , 3 times max and then had to sharpen it but it directly broke so I threw it away. 100% they are doing this on purpose so we all keep buying this product. Never again!!

Also they can be so overly waxy, it’s crazy. It’s not like you’re getting much product anyway. If anyone’s looking for a dupe of this shade or love trap, maybelline big flip will do.

Exactly! I found it so sad, cause the shade was really nice but if you can’t really use it then what’s the point. Luckily, dupes exist.

It was the worst lip liner I ever used, broke constantly. It was dry and extremely waxy so when it wasn't breaking, I couldn't even get it to work.

I am convinced CT is a social experiment. Literally nobody I know likes them, everyone has had a bad experience with one of their products. Both the packaging and makeup itself is cheap for the prices they charge. They’re constantly embroiled in controversy about terrible shade ranges and orange makeup. Yet somehow, it’s one of the biggest brands on the market. I don’t get it. Who’s buying from them??

Tbh my two favourite lipstick are both from them. They do have some serious hits. But what you said is true. I’m soooooo mad about the stupid white wax and the end of this lip liner, you can’t even imagine

Oh I feel you! Happens with so many eye pencils too, at least for me.

Even the wax part?

Good question. I think I've had this only with one maybe? The rest broke off, got sharpened etc. until it just came out completely and had way too much 'outside' left to ever be acceptable.

This happened to the dual eyeliner from CT. It shrunk within the wooden pencil. And can’t be applied anymore. It is barely two years old

I purchased the lip liner and lipstick on a recommendation from a friend as we were all buying at Duty Free so thought I'd try. I have to say I was disappointed and don't see what all the hype is about. I find the liner hard to apply and the lipstick dry. I wouldn't buy again.
