Personally I don't like:
-cut crease
-falsies
-heavy contouring and highlighting
-fake looking brows
-shimmery browbones
-badly applied makeup (in general)
^I can appreciate the listed above when its done nicely though :)
This girl from my area has a facebook page with *her name* MUA and her work and its so badly done it makes me sad to think that they obviously hand out certificates so easily in my town.

My number one peeve has got to be flaking mascara. I also get irked when I have my face half done and start to sweat a little, like when I'm under pressure to get out the door or something. It makes me feel like no matter what I do, the finish will never be right. Errrrrrrrrr!

@Ben D, haha I died! I know the feeling!! That just made me love you dude! jk but still haha. Soo great!:)))
The foundation mask
liner only on the bottom, unless being done for a special reason or on purpose to fit a look or theme.
I'm not super picky.:)))

People who open up makeup (drugstore) and sample away. And when I see someone doing it I have no problem in letting them know how disgusting it is.

Shelley I thought the same when I read the header! I never understood it especially since all major drugstores have an extremely generous return policy!

I had bad brows... bad shapes are like my nightmare. also when people have super uneven eyeliner and leave it on. or when people wear eyemakeup like eyeshadow and eyeliner with no mascara... ugh. also I don't like bold eyes and bold lips I know some do... not me lil.

When people apply one eyeshadow all the way up to their eyebrow.
Wearing colors that don't compliment your skin tone

I'm on the same boat with what Shelley said and I can't stand to walk in sephora and they apply product to costumers but won't sanitize their brushes but yet still go over to another person and apply on them with the same unclean brush.I once seen to workers passing each other brushes that they just use on another on ones hand and that brush travel to another's face so carefree.You would think they have loads of product they would be able to sanitize or use other clean brushes.

Yess to what Shelley said! I walked in my local target the other day, and literally every lipstick was used! They were all half gone and smudged up. The the worst part about it, is that they were all put back on the sales floor on purpose, they just slapped a clearance sticker on anything that was open.. Disgusting!

@Nala people actually use one color all the way to their eyebrows? lol I've never seen that!

When my mascara/makeup does smudge under my eyes and a friend doesn't tell me. I come back from the ladies room and gripe at them for letting me be seen imitating a raccoon!
