I'm sure it's a fairly common one, but oh my god I cannot TAKE it when people have the wrong foundation color. It drives me absolutely nuts.
And something else I'm not really understand but I'm seeing everywhere lately on facebook, is a HUGE 5 inch thick black line underneath the eyes, but no eyeliner or shadow or anything on top. I don't know, I just don't get it! lol.

Spider eyes! Ugh! It's like they make mascara spoolies for a reason. lol
Next item on my list... White on the inner corner of the eyes. Sure light colors will help "brighten" eyes but a ton of white on the inside corners near your tear duct... you look like you're part raccoon!
And yes, mismatched foundation is a pet peeve but I'm guilty of that when I'm using new foundation lines because I have very weird coloring.
Speaking of mismatched... I was watching What Not To Wear today and the woman on it (a cellist) was very pale but had so much bronzer that her jawline was practically muddy looking.

LOL - I call them "tarantula eyes". If someone mentions Tammy Faye-Baker in your presence, you're wearing too much mascara!

I have to say, I hate hate hate the super-dark-lipliner-and-nothing-else look. I thought it died with the dawn of the 21st century, but I was wrong--I still see women doing this on the streets and it drive me nuts. I can tell that you have lips without your dark lines around them--if you're really that afraid I can't see them, wear a darker lipstick. Or any lipstick. Please.

I can't stand when people wear dark eyeshadow, but only on the lids - they don't blend it up to the brow bone or add a lighter shade or anything.

^ Raccoon eyes! LOL
Worse are the ones that add dark eyeshadow or liner to the bottom of the eyes without balancing it on top. Line backer anyone?

I totally agree with the raccoon eyes!
And people (mostly teen girls) wearing WAYYYY too much black eyeliner!!

I always feel so bad when people go walking around with their foundation on and it looks like they're wearing a mask because they didn't blend it out! I just want to fix it for them, drives me nuts!

i hate when people have the wrong foundation color and it looks like their wearing a mask, dark lip liner and light lipstick, spider lashes, overly thick eyeliner, and over done blush.

Another makeup mistake I cringe when I see...
Powder face but worse yet, when powder face becomes a cakey mess around the nose!

I agree with all you ladies but I definitely have a thing about eyebrows that make you look like a cartoon character and the "Casper" face.

I hate when the false lashes are not blended with the natural and you can clearly see the separation.
Super BLACK markered eyebrows looking like they fought a sharpie and the sharpie won!

Over tanning. 'Jersery Shore' is not a colour. Orange is not natural. More importantly, you look cheap, not tan. All I think of is 'wrinkles wrinkles wrinkles'. We're over here fighting so hard to not age and these guys are begging the UV Gods to turn them into leather. lol.
