10 Makeup Crimes You Should Never Commit
Share

Most girls are obsessed with makeup, but we don’t want to overdo it and end up looking like clowns. When applying makeup, it’s better to tone it down instead of going overboard, especially when you’re not skilled as it can get a little messy!

1. DON’T use bright eye shadow without blending it really well, or you’re going to look like this:

2. DON’T hide your features with lots of makeup because you will end up looking like a doll, and nobody wants that!

3. DON’T — please don’t — do a winged eyeliner that looks like a square coming of the outer corner of your eye. If you don’t know how to wing it, watch a tutorial or just don’t do it!

4. And who among us has naturally perfect brows? But that does NOT mean we should overdo them and look like this!

5. This is the worst thing you can do to yourself! Red lips are NOT for everyone and over-lining your lips can make you look like you’ve just eaten somebody.

6. DON’T follow trends blindly! Blue lipstick can either be really creative and fashion forward or it can be a hot mess. You don’t want to look like Joey in the Ichiban blue lipstick ad, do you?

7. DON’T add lots of powder on your face just to make your skin look lighter because your face will look cakey and you will look like you dipped your face in baking powder!

8. DON’T do a smokey eye look if you’re not going to blend, blend and blend or you’re going to look like you’ve been punched in the eyes!

9. DON’T apply blush on the center of your cheeks like a cheap plastic doll!

10. DON’T take contouring too literal!

If you manage to stay away from these horrible mistakes when you’re doing your makeup, YAAAS GAWD you’re safe!

Twenty-something. Aries. Workaholic. Has an unhealthy obsession with Makeup and hair coloring. Believes that some girls should be executed for applying makeup horribly. Has a passion for dark lipsticks and blue eyeliners. Black is her color. Lives to contour and highlight. Need more? I think this is enough for now.
