We all have those things in makeup that we hate when people do. Now, I'm not one to judge, but some makeup mistakes are just awful. Here's my list. What's yours?
Unblended shadow
Incorrect foundation shades
Drawing WAY to far out on lip lines
Sparkly/super shimmer browbone highlights ( the 80's called, they want their shadow back!)
Too light of concealer
99,999 layers of foundation
Too much blush or bronzer
That's about all I can think of atm! What's on your list?! Xoxo~ Kenna 💕💎

Same for my list! Ofcourse not offending anyone who does this, my personal opinion. Like argh I don't know it bothers me slot when people do this. Don't believe everything YouTube says😭🙊 oh and when you ladies use bronzer to contour or call your gradient yes smokey eyes

A big one of mine is when you can see the pencil lines in the brows. It makes the brows look so fake! Use the right shade and blend it in! Other than that, I agree with the rest of you.

Hannah K.
I agree with your Kenna, adding to your one
Wrong colour/unblended blush and bronzer (like massively dark bronzer or bright red blush)
Hugely clumpy mascara
10 layers of lip gloss
Inch thick makeup
The foundation tidemark where they haven't blended or it's the wrong colour.

Omg the foundation tide mark 😂😂😂 that's funny but so truee, my bff came to school with a foundation ride mark and I told her and he was like oh my foundation wasn't blending

I agree with all of you! I especially dislike a million coats of mascara that makes you look like you have two eyelashes, not a good look! just makeup over done is not good! I'm all for a full face of make up but some girls don't do it right :/ blending is key with everything :)

People who don't draw their liquid liner into their eyelashes. :/ with the strip of skin between the lashes and the liner..

Amy B.
Agreed^

When girls use too much blush and then look like a clown.
When someone contours so much that it's very obvious its makeup.
Wrong combo of bold eye plus a bold lip
But normally I don't see that lol

I don't know.. I do agree with you ladies on certain points. I'll look at a girls makeup & notice all the things done incorrectly, but then I think.. we're all guilty of it at one point or another xD there was a time when I hardly ever blended my eye shadow, or used the wrong shade of foundation & ended up with that "mask". when I didn't think to extend my liner into my lashes to eliminate that strip of skin. all of those things drive me crazy now, but we've all done it through sheer lack of makeup knowledge. I mean, if it wasn't for BL I wouldn't know half of what I now know, & probably would have a far shorter pet peeve list, ahahah!

I think Jacqueline said it perfectly. I mean I know I do things with my makeup that others don't like, but that doesn't mean it is bad or ugly. Haha, you can't look at it from the perspective of whether or not it is your taste. You should look at it from a professional point of view, how it is applied and stuff. lol. Jackie said it perfect though.:)
Aug 9, 2014
Chante M.
@jacquelin bold eye and bold lip can be put together but sometimes it's too much depending on the types of colors and how bold you actually make it. sorry if that's confusing lol.

I agree with Jacqueline and Kyraa wholeheatedly.

This is probably just me, but I've noticed a big trend of calling lipsticks or lipgloss lippies and for some reason it just irritates me. I know a bunch of you probably say it, I'm not saying it's wrong, just a personal thing :) other than that I pretty much agree with you girls! Although one person who gets to me a little on YouTube is thatgirlshaexo. I really like her and she creates some beautiful looks, but she gives out SO MUCH incorrect information! I do like her as a person though :)

Amanda V.
HAHA Molly you made my day! I can't stand the word lippie. I know many people use it, and that's completely fine! I just can never bring myself to say it. 😂

I honestly don't care about. I'm no professional nor am I amazing at my makeup either, so who am I to say.

I've seen this a couple times and it absolutely bugs me, when someone fills in their eyebrows and extends the ends way to far and then does their winged liner basically touching their brow.

Alyssa B.
It's annoys me how 99% of the female population draws on their eyebrows the same exact way 😒

Ok I think when you make mistakes it's ok to not be In the wrong. BUT when these girls come out hoUse having so much eyeliner and cakey make up , and you TELL them nicely that's not the correct way. They get mad and call you a b**** and other names and I just say ok then look like a fool. The girls I talk about is the girls that think they're all that. I reallllyy hate that. But that's my opinion.

I agree with you about the eyebrows Alyssa! I need to stop.using the word lippy. It bugs me too but sometimes I get too lazy to write out lipstick.
