Meghan G, some ladies have no class.

Thought of another one. Not something I strictly hate, but something I don't understand... I have friends that refuse to use anything other than the little sponge applicators that come with their eye shadow to apply it. Seriously. I have a pack of cheap disposable ones that I mainly use to get product out of tubes (for hygiene reasons) and a coworker saw the pack and went on and on about how I should give her one because the applicator that came with her Revlon Quad was disintegrating. Needless to say, I gave her what was left of the pack with strict instructions to toss after use and repurchase! My plea for her to get a brush (ANY BRUSH!) and some sort of base or primer to stop creasing fell on deaf ears, though.

- Spider lashes
- Not blended blush
- Unblended smokey eyes. OH MY GOD. THE WORST.
- People who wear nothing bit black eyeliner on the bottom lash line & smudge the hell out of it.
- Eyelashes that will make you fly.
- When lipgloss looks like straight saliva.
- Perfect face makeup w/ undone eyebrows.

Oh darling, I have so many. lol

I hate it when girls only wear silver and black eyeshadow like a clown thinking that it'll go with anythingg! Especially when they overkill it with blusher and totally wipe their lips off their faces with a too nude lipstick or gloss.

Overly tweezed/waxed eyebrows. Ick.

When people buy the wrong color foundation. And I'm not talking oh maybe it's one shade darker, but like 2 or 3. I remember seeing this one girl at an airshow and she was quite pale but had a brown liquid foundation on. You could see she tried to blend it into her skin, but even then you could see, very clearly, where she stop. Ugh *cringe* it was horrendous!

Echoing you, Kirbie! Also the flip of that scenario, when someone tans like crazy and is a solid 3 shades darker than their foundation. Maybe that's your color in the winter, but if you tan that much, you should buy a new foundation for summer...

the worst for me is way to much eyeliner, when the rest of the face isn't done... it just looks REALLY bad! If you skin doesn't look great then the rest of your face isn't going to look good at all! I hate "the mask" please if you're going to wear a shade or 2 darker then your skin tone, please blend it out! Also clumpy spider lashes are disgusting, i've seen so many teenage girls with them and they think they look hot... uh, sorry but no!

I must say...I hate:

-Eye makeup that is flawless, but your eyebrows need to be done!
-Makeup that isn't blended. (If one of my friends have this problem, I immediately take out a brush and get to work.)
-So much lip gloss, it looks like you just finished drinking a bucket of chicken grease.
-Eyeshadow on top of fake eyelashes. I hate when people but on the eyelashes first and THEN puts on the eyeshadow. That is soooo ass backwards!

That's all I can think of.......for now!

When I was waitressing... I once saw a teen girl come in with her mom, and the teen girl's eyebrows were so black and dark and thick, it looked like she held a sharpie sideways and drew them on.... hiiiiideoussss!!!!!

All this is seriously hilarious!!!.. I hate when girls think concealer is the whole makeup.. is like, they forgot to do the rest. Or when they get very light concealer and it's obvious to everyone (especially in pictures) they're like racoons in reverse... God, so awful.. This is a HUGE thing in my country, still don't know why.

Another one would be when teen girls start overdoing they're make-up... to go to school ¬¬ We even wear uniforms for school here people, seriously what's the point? They get these super dark, and glittery eyeshadows, tons of mascara; for school... ridiculous.

the worst of the lot is when people don't wipe of foundation from their brows and they end up having grey brows in pictures

The pictures are great!!! The great eyeshadow with the bad eyebrows is one of mine as well. I don't know if this counts and I know not everyone likes to wear makeup, but if you're going out, all dressed up, heels, cluth, the whole shebang...AND NO MAKEUP! What's that about?!

Haha, I thought I saved my comment on this, guess not!

I don't honestly care about what other people put on their faces, for the simple fact that people shouldn't care what I put on my face.

The only thing I can really think of that I HATE is when people use bronzer that is WAY too dark for their skin tone, and then they have the nerve to not even blend it out. Also, nude lips. Nude in one person's skin color, does not work with everyone else's skin tone as nude. IE: Mac D'Nude, is not nude on a hispanic girl, or an african american girl.

people with real dry skin with foundation on crackle look and when they try to cover acne and it just makes it stand out more.That's the only thing other then that to each his own it's an art not a clone rule of thumb for everyone.

I have many many many.

1. An extremely light shade on the inner half of eye, really dark shade on the outer half.

2. When people compliment my makeup (I'm daring and am always creating out if the norm looks) and they say, "I wish I could pull that off blah blah". Carry yourself with confidence ladies were all beautiful ;)

Mismatched foundation
Not blending your eyeshadows whether you're using dark or light shades.. Always blend!!
Asymmetrical eyeliner
Eyeshadow fall out on lashes
Also when your eyebrows aren't either filled it. Eyebrows are the most important thing when doing your make up and I hate hate hate it when girls forget about that

I would have to say pencil thin brows. I think it can make a person look way too old or scary or both. I also don't think it looks healthy when people choose to go really light to the point they look ill.
