Makeup Don'ts!

I thought this'd be a fun topic!

for all those silly makeup mistakes we seee

post pictures!

i personally hate when people put big fat smudges of blue under their eyes, and don't blend their eyeshadow.. euw.

i have a pic but photobucket assassinates my computer whenever i try to upload something

makes me cry

eek!

i know!

black lipliner, with a light or clear gloss over it...ew.

pencil thin brows - be cool like Tiinia and draw em on - its better than seeing sparse little hairs and heavy liner!

foundation thats TOO light or TOO dark.

Ive made this mistake because I forgot to clean my brushes:



butt here's what happens when my brushes are clean!



the camera washes me out so I look all blah. but that's good makeup there! =D

I also hate badly drawn on brows,

too much lipgloss,

too much blush,

anddd really heavy dark makeup.

not like basic black eyeliner heavy.

I mean "death to us all" heavy. >.<

like those funny goth people who draw all over their faces?
bahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

I dislike when people put two contrasting colours together and expect it to look awesome and daring and totally indie, but it ends up looking like shit.

I also dislike very sparse brows. I love it when I see a girl with nice, shaped eyebrows. I think it frames a face really well, gives it definition. Oooh, and when people do crazy I'M SO SURPRISED drawn on brows. Or little half circles. Lawd.

Hmmm, also, when people draw lipliner way outside of their natural lips. Euuugh.

Gah, I have far too many to list but my main one might be asian chicks that completely line their waterline in black.

It makes them look even squintier.


And I'm with you guys on poorly maintained eyebrows.

oo, I can understand that completely. asian eyes shouldnt be enhanced in that way!

I know a girl who never wears any makeup except really dark, really thick black eyeliner around the entirety of her eyes, but she never puts it on her waterline or puts any mascara on or anything. It just looks... weird.

Too much of anything is awful, obviously. And people who's foundation is a totally different color than their skin... and you can, like... see it change from their face to their neck?

And too much lip gloss, where it looks like you've just been eating weird nasty gooey shit and got it on your face... yeah, grosses me out. Haha.

Also, although I have seen quite a few people who can do pretty liquid eyeliner designs that look real nice and lovely... I have also seen some that look really, really, really horrid. Ha ha.

lol sounds like a friend of mine!i could have killed her when i stayed at hers after a night out, she didnt have ANYTHING to take makeup off with (so i ruined my skin with water soap and cotton wool pads), and in the morning told me she doesnt wear mascara so doesnt own it!urrrrg!

Orange foundation = vomit.

Jade, where in the world does one find orange foundation? It sounds pretty nasty.

I hate it when women wear lilac lipstick and it doesn't match their skin tone.

=O ARE YOU KIDDING ME!
It seems like half the women in Australia wear orange foundation. It might not be specifically orange in the bottle, but geez on their face it's freaking orange as an orange!

Gross. Everyone here has bright blonde hair and dark skin from tanning beds, but never a true orange. Don't people check the mirror anymore?

Everyone i work with has the blonde hair, orange tan skin, and wears eyeliner in a gross way. I do not approve.

And I hate when makeup looks messy...colors need to be be blended, and if you are going to use eye smudge from HT...make sure it doesn't look like a five year old attacked your face with crayons while you were sleeping.

I hate it when girls purposly wear clumpy mascara. I know this girl that would come to school everyday with her lashes extremlly clumpy, then she would put even MORE on in every class!!

I know its not makeup, but heavily fake tanned skin, or skin that is tan which just isn't meant to be. I am learning to treasure my paleness since well its unique these days since there are seas of oompaloompas running around.

Karema, I dont agree with you! Everyone looks better tanned, you just look healthier!

I hate foundation lines though, eyeshadow when it creases and ameks you look swaety, when people have really oily greasy shiny noses and do nothing about it!

I also hate it when people wear so much (off-colored usually) foundation that it makes their face look dirty.

OMG. THANK YOU! as an eyesmudge advocate, I appreciate you pointing that out - all the amateurs make us look bad! I actually think I do a good job applying it...so it hurts when I see someone thats smacked it on like they did something special.

ack. also, thank you. I hate clumpy lashes, sometimes I use a lash comb AND a clean mascara wand to get mine jusssst right. lashes arent a game, people!

exactly why I posted that piccie of me - my makeup looked off cos I used one brush for powder, blush, and bronzer! never doin that again. -.-

and Sarah, you're right, some people do look better tanned, when its done right. thats when I like tans. but you know those people that overdo the self tanner, or stay in that bed just a little too long? think Sunset Tan on the E! network.

Haha I love that show.

Like this??

I'll admit that I do on occasion draw a little swirly next to one of my eyes or extend my liquid eyeliner a bit.

But I NEVER do this!

I love pale skin! I used to be one of those girls who would go to the tanning bed, but then I stopped and turned my true color. I hate people who fake tan now because they were born with that skin tone for a reason!
