23 Beauty Mishaps That Drive Us Crazy
- Foundations lines.We’ve all been guilty of sporting a foundation mask once or twice in our lives, probably back when we were still fresh to the make-up world and didn’t truly understand the beauty of blending.
- Lighting is key.There’s nothing worse than slaving over your makeup, thinking it’s spot on then moving into another room that has better lighting to realise you have patches without anything on, some spots where it’s 5 shades too dark and your eyebrows are completely odd.
-
Over-tweezering.It’s a chronic condition a lot of us suffer from. Once you start it’s often hard to stop, until you realise you’ve only got half a brow left…
- Too much bronzer.The best contouring is when it’s not obvious. Sculpt your cheeks, don’t go wild!
- Too much blusher.You don’t want to look even more embarrassed than you would be if you’d committed a makeup mishap!
-
Lipstick on teeth.We’ve all fallen fowl to our lipsticks. Thinking we have the perfect application to then realise you’ve got it smudged across your teeth.
- Eyeliner probs.We all have come across this problem more than once. That moment you do the perfect winged eyeliner, go to your next eye and don’t manage the perfection you achieved before. Resulting in the endless challenge of going between each eye before you manage to get it even.
- Getting ready for a night out takes long enough.So it doesn’t help when you put on your eyeshadow and end up getting flecks of it all down your freshly made up face. Yes, we know, eyes first then foundation, but how many of us really remember that?!
-
One day we’ll perfect this one and the sooner the better.The amount of foundation we waste by squeezing what we think is the perfect amount onto our hand to then realise you probably have enough left over to put on another 10 people.
- Dry shampoo is our best friend.It gives us that extra half an hour in bed and makes us look like we’ve spent hours styling our hair in the morning. Although we do occasionally fall out when you over spray and end up with grey hair… not out best look!
- Overdrawing eyebrows.Don’t really need to explain this one do we?
-
Wind is definitely not a girls best friend.When a lovely gust of wind comes along and blows your hair across your face and sticks to your lipstick… no thank you.
- Painting your nails is a chore, we know.You paint them perfectly then realise you really need to do something, do you risk moving and messing them up or do you sit tight until you’re 110% sure you’re safe to move?!
- Chipped nail varnish.Need we say much more? Can someone create a nail varnish that lasts forever please?!
-
Bobbles snapping mid hair-tying up.This is annoying enough, but then you have the task of finding another bobble as you try hold your hair in place. A bit more consideration next time please bobbles!
- Coloured highlights are something we loved years ago, not so much now.There’s nothing worse than getting your hair caught in your mascara mid application and ending up rocking the goth look with a black streak in your hair.
- Being on the phone then realising half your makeup is no longer on your face.But on your phone screen.
-
Mascara.Mascara in your hair, on your eyelid, on you ear. Anywhere thats not your lashes.
- Leaving orange fingerprints all over the house and make-up marks on towels.Sorry mum...
- Waking up from night out is normally enough of a struggle.So we definitely don’t want to be seeing any photos where we’ve attempted to re-do our makeup while drunk and ended up with lipstick in places it shouldn't be.
-
Streaky fake tan.And not washing your hands/ankles properly. Need we say much more?
- Getting your hair stuck in the hairdryer.We're just trying to have luscious locks God damn it!
-
Broken powder.Broken powder going everywhere. In your make-up bag, on your carpet, all over your car... RIP powder.
