Examples of Lackluster in a Sentence
The wrong cleanser can wreck your skin, if you use a standard soap — a cleanser that has a basic pH — it strips the skin of natural oils and compromises the skin barrier, leading to irritation and dry, lackluster skin. Using a mild, pH-neutral nonsoap cleanser helps moisturize while you cleanse and deposits skin-identical lipids back into the skin.
Chief Executive Matt Levatich:
We did not expect the industry as a whole would be as soft as it is. While our( market) share gains helped to blunt the full impact of this weak market, lackluster industry sales have had a significant impact on our results and our forward expectations.
The data is telling us that the economy is improving but it is not super strong, we are looking at the first half of 2015, which is probably not as strong as investors would have liked. So that adds to today's lackluster market action.
This may not lead to further primary upsets, and yes, Crowley ran a lackluster race, and turnout out was low, but whether voters meant to send a national message or not, one has been received.
The focus is going to continue to be on earnings and what the message is and so far the message hasn't been that great, if they continue to be what they are, these kind of lackluster reports, the market is going to get exhausted and it is going to back off. It is going to be an important week just for direction.
